* kernel: only strip proc for small flash devicesNick Hainke2020-12-221-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, you are not able to get statistics about IPv4 and IPv6 usage. This information can be collected via the snmp and snmp6. However, in the current state this interface is disabled as you can read in the "902-debloat_proc.patch": "Strip non-essential /proc functionality to reduce code size" Tools like netstat use the snmp/6 interface to collect interface statistics. Some prometheus exporters also mention this: - prometheus-collectors/netstat.lua - prometheus-collectors/snmp6 (still a PR) - collectd/snmp6 (still a PR) PRs: - https://github.com/collectd/collectd/pull/3789 - https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/14158 Instead of enabling it as default for all devices we condition it default y if SMALL_FLASH A test shows it needs around 16 kiB.

* kernel: add KERNEL_IO_URING optionAndy Walsh2020-12-221-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * add KERNEL_IO_URING option NOTES: Adds configurable support for the io_uring interface (CONFIG_IO_URING) via KERNEL_IO_URING option. The kernel only zImage grows by about 5-9KB ? I would like to enable this by default for all 5.4 kernels, so i can use the new io_uring samba-4.12.x vfs module by default. The associated liburing was already submitted and merged. The kernel + liburing was tested on ARM/mvebu via samba4 vfs_io_uring module and i have no issues so far. Some extra reads on it and why we should enable it by default, since i expect more packages to use this in the future. https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_4.12_Features_added/changed#.27io_uring.27_vfs_module https://lwn.net/Articles/810414/ https://kernel.dk/io_uring.pdf https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-5.6-IO-uring-Tests Signed-off-by: Andy Walsh <andy.walsh44+github@gmail.com>
* build: Add IRQSOFF and PREEMPT TRACER kernel config optionHauke Mehrtens2020-12-161-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER and the CONFIG_PREEMPT_TRACER kernel configuration option to the OpenWrt menu. This can be used to debug latencies in the system. The CONFIG_PREEMPT_TRACER option needs the CONFIG_PREEMPT option which is supposed to be used for Low-Latency Desktop and not used by many targets in OpenWrt. The help text is copied from the Linux kernel Kconfig. Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hmehrtens@maxlinear.com>
* kernel: enable kernel keyring by default on !SMALL_FLASHDaniel Golle2020-12-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Enable CONFIG_KEYS by default on systems which are not marked as flash-space constraint by the 'small_flash' feature. CONFIG_KEYS is required by Docker, enabling it in our kernel allows users to run Docker on stock OpenWrt. It is also used of by some network file systems (such as NFSv4) to store credentials as well as UID/GID mappings. Adds about 50kB to vmlinux on ath79/generic (~18kB compressed) Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>

* config: add KERNEL_LSM symbolPaul Spooren2020-09-031-11/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The LSM (Linux security mechanism) list is the successor of the now legacy *major LSM*. Instead of defining a single security mechanism the LSM symbol is a comma separated list of mechanisms to load. Until recently OpenWrt would only support DAC (Unix discretionary access controls) which don't require an additional entry in the LSM list. With the newly introduced SELinux support the LSM needs to be extended else only a manual modified Kernel cmdline (`security=selinux`) would activate SELinux. As the default OpenWrt Kernel config sets DAC as default security mechanism, SELinux is stripped from the LSM list, even if `KERNEL_DEFAULT_SECURITY_SELINUX` is activated. To allow SELinux without a modified cmdline this commit sets a specific LSM list if `KERNEL_SECURITY_SELINUX` is enabled. The upstream Kconfig adds even more mechanisms (smack,selinux,tomoyo,apparmor), but until they're ported to OpenWrt, these can be ignored. To compile SELinux Kernel support but disable it from loading, the already present options `KERNEL_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE` or `KERNEL_SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM` (with custom cmdline `selinux=0`) can be used. Further it's possible to edit `/etc/selinux/config`. Signed-off-by: Paul Spooren <mail@aparcar.org>

For the latter two, we should not force the user to use either of them, so add them as build-configurable kernel options.

* brcm2708: rename target to bcm27xxAdrian Schmutzler2020-02-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change makes the names of Broadcom targets consistent by using the common notation based on SoC/CPU ID (which is used internally anyway), bcmXXXX instead of brcmXXXX. This is even used for target TITLE in make menuconfig already, only the short target name used brcm so far. Despite, since subtargets range from bcm2708 to bcm2711, it seems appropriate to use bcm27xx instead of bcm2708 (again, as already done for BOARDNAME). This also renames the packages brcm2708-userland and brcm2708-gpu-fw. Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de> Acked-by: Álvaro Fernández Rojas <noltari@gmail.com>

Therefore add sane defaults for this symbol in that case.

Exceptions to the above are: - lantiq, where the optimization for size is only required for the xway_legacy subtarget but was set for the whole target - mediatek, ramips/mt7620 & ramips/mt76x8 where boards should have plenty of space and an optimization for size doesn't make much sense - rb532, which has 128MByte flash Signed-off-by: Mathias Kresin <dev@kresin.me>
