And (according to my colleagues) Wow, AWESOME! How did your colleague find it? that was a big hint for me. when CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES is not set, it doesn't make an error. > it might add too many instrumented if conditions to sustain the builtin-constant > tracking, which is not unlimited, or interact with optimizations in some other > corner case way. > I guess we could add IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES) to the list of > conditions that excludes using BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG(). Well I wanted to understand how CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES excludes BUILD_BUG_ON This is gcc's preprocessor output. So let's start from what CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES does. #ifdef CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES /* * "Define 'is'", Bill Clinton * "Define 'if'", Steven Rostedt */ #define if(cond, ...) if ( __trace_if_var( !!(cond , ## __VA_ARGS__) ) ) #define __trace_if_var(cond) (__builtin_constant_p(cond) ? (cond) : __trace_if_value(cond)) #define __trace_if_value(cond) ({ \ static struct ftrace_branch_data \ __aligned(4) \ __section("_ftrace_branch") \ __if_trace = { \ .func = __func__, \ .file = __FILE__, \ .line = __LINE__, \ }; \ (cond) ? \ (__if_trace.miss_hit[1]++,1) : \ (__if_trace.miss_hit[0]++,0); \ }) #endif /* CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES */ it seems it records non-constant condition's hit or miss. if cond is constant, do nothing. else, records its hit or miss at runtime. then let's look at kmalloc_node, which is called by bpf_map_kmalloc_node. static inline __attribute__((__gnu_inline__)) __attribute__((__unused__)) __attribute__((no_instrument_function)) __attribute__((__always_inline__)) void *kmalloc_node(size_t size, gfp_t flags, int node){ if ( (__builtin_constant_p( !!(__builtin_constant_p(size) && size <= (1UL << ((11 + 12 - 1) <= 25 ? (11 + 12 - 1) : 25)))) ? (!!(__builtin_constant_p(size) && size <= (1UL << ((11 + 12 - 1) <= 25 ? (11 + 12 - 1) : 25)))) : ({ static struct ftrace_branch_data __attribute__ ((__aligned__(4))) __attribute__((__section__("_ftrace_branch"))) __if_trace = { .func = __func__, .file = "include/linux/slab.h", .line = 601, }; (!!(__builtin_constant_p(size) && size <= (1UL << ((11 + 12 - 1) <= 25 ? (11 + 12 - 1) : 25)))) ? (__if_trace.miss_hit[1]++,1) : (__if_trace.miss_hit[0]++,0); })) ) { unsigned int i = __kmalloc_index(size, true); It seems that gcc evaluates __builtin_constant_p( !!(builtin_constant_p(size) && size <= KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE) ) as true. mm.. when the size passed to bpf_map_kmalloc_node is not constant, (__builtin_constant_p(size) && size <= KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE) is false. then __builtin_constant_p(!!false) is true. So it calls kmalloc_index. what change should be made? just checking CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES to kmalloc_index's if condition doesn't make sense, because kmalloc_node is not working as expected. Plus, BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG seems not working with clang. Below is generated by clang 11.0.0 preprocessor, when compiling mm/kfence/kfence_test.o Well, I'm going to read more code on BUILD_BUG_XXX family, but if it doens't work on clang, we should change condition that we made. if ( (__builtin_constant_p(!!((0 || 110000 >= 110000) && size_is_constant)) ? (!!((0 || 110000 >= 110000) && size_is_constant)) : ({ static struct ftrace_branch_data __attribute__((__aligned__(4))) __attribute__((__section__("_ftrace_branch"))) __if_trace = { .func = __func__, .file = "include/linux/slab.h", .line = 416, }; (!!((0 || 110000 >= 110000) && size_is_constant)) ? (__if_trace.miss_hit[1]++,1) : (__if_trace.miss_hit[0]++,0); })) ) do { extern void __compiletime_assert_131(void) ; // here - compiletime_assert_131 does NOTHING if ( (__builtin_constant_p(!!(!(!(1)))) ? (!!(!(!(1)))) : ({ static struct ftrace_branch_data __attribute__((__aligned__(4))) __attribute__((__section__("_ftrace_branch"))) __if_trace = { .func = __func__, .file = "include/linux/slab.h", .line = 417, }; (!!(!(!(1)))) ? (__if_trace.miss_hit[1]++,1) : (__if_trace.miss_hit[0]++,0); })) ) __compiletime_assert_131(); } while (0); else do { do { } while(0); do { asm __inline volatile("1:\t" ".byte 0x0f, 0x0b" "\n" ".pushsection __bug_table,\"aw\"\n" "2:\t" ".long " "1b" " - 2b" "\t# bug_entry::bug_addr\n" "\t.word %c0" "\t# bug_entry::flags\n" "\t.org 2b+%c1\n" ".popsection" : : "i" (0), "i" (sizeof(struct bug_entry))); } while (0); do { ({ asm volatile("132" ":\n\t" ".pushsection .discard.unreachable\n\t" ".long " "132" "b - .\n\t" ".popsection\n\t"); }); __builtin_unreachable(); } while (0); } while (0); return -1; } Maybe it's because of definition of __compiletime_assert. #ifdef __OPTIMIZE__ # define __compiletime_assert(condition, msg, prefix, suffix) \ do { \ extern void prefix ## suffix(void) __compiletime_error(msg); \ if (!(condition)) \ prefix ## suffix(); \ } while (0) #else # define __compiletime_assert(condition, msg, prefix, suffix) do { } while (0) #endif There can be an logical error or misunderstanding on my words. If so, please tell me! Thanks, Hyeonggon
