2017-09-16firmware: Restore support for built-in firmwareMarkus Trippelsdorf
Commit 5620a0d1aac ("firmware: delete in-kernel firmware") removed the entire firmware directory. Unfortunately it thereby also removed the support for built-in firmware. This restores the ability to build firmware directly into the kernel by pruning the original Makefile to the necessary minimum. The default for EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR is now the standard directory /lib/firmware/.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core Pull firmware removal from Greg KH: "Many many years ago (at the kernel summit in Boston), we all came to the agreement that the firmware/ tree should be dropped from the kernel, and everyone use the linux-firmware package instead. For some minor reason, David Woodhouse didn't send the pull request at that point in time, and everyone forgot about this. The topic came up in the hallway track at the Plumbers conference this week, so here's a single patch that drops the whole firmware tree. The last firmware update was back in 2013, and all distros have been using linux-firmware instead since at least that year, if not before. The only commits to that directory since 2013 was some kbuild fixups for various build tool issues. So lets finally drop this, we don't need to lug them around in the kernel source tree anymore, especially as no one wants or uses them. This has passed build testing with 0-day, I don't think it made it into linux-next this week, but I figured it was good to get in before 4.14-rc1 was out" * tag 'firmware_removal-4.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: firmware: delete in-kernel firmware

2017-09-01kbuild: use $(abspath ...) instead of $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd)Masahiro Yamada
Kbuild conventionally uses $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd) idiom to get the absolute path of the directory because GNU Make 3.80, the minimal supported version at that time, did not support $(abspath ...) or $(realpath ...). Commit 37d69ee30808 ("docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81") dropped the GNU Make 3.80 support, so we are now allowed to use those make-builtin helpers. This conversion will provide better portability without relying on the pwd command or its location /bin/pwd. I am intentionally using $(realpath ...) instead $(abspath ...) in some places. The difference between the two is $(realpath ...) returns an empty string if the given path does not exist. It is convenient in places where we need to error-out if the makefile fails to create an output directory.

2017-08-21Kbuild: use -fshort-wchar globallyArnd Bergmann
Commit 971a69db7dc0 ("Xen: don't warn about 2-byte wchar_t in efi") added the --no-wchar-size-warning to the Makefile to avoid this harmless warning: arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: warning: drivers/xen/efi.o uses 2-byte wchar_t yet the output is to use 4-byte wchar_t; use of wchar_t values across objects may fail Changing kbuild to use thin archives instead of recursive linking unfortunately brings the same warning back during the final link. The kernel does not use wchar_t string literals at this point, and xen does not use wchar_t at all (only efi_char16_t), so the flag has no effect, but as pointed out by Jan Beulich, adding a wchar_t string literal would be bad here. Since wchar_t is always defined as u16, independent of the toolchain default, always passing -fshort-wchar is correct and lets us remove the Xen specific hack along with fixing the warning.

2017-07-12disable new gcc-7.1.1 warnings for nowLinus Torvalds
I made the mistake of upgrading my desktop to the new Fedora 26 that comes with gcc-7.1.1. There's nothing wrong per se that I've noticed, but I now have 1500 lines of warnings, mostly from the new format-truncation warning triggering all over the tree. We use 'snprintf()' and friends in a lot of places, and often know that the numbers are fairly small (ie a controller index or similar), but gcc doesn't know that, and sees an 'int', and thinks that it could be some huge number. And then complains when our buffers are not able to fit the name for the ten millionth controller. These warnings aren't necessarily bad per se, and we probably want to look through them subsystem by subsystem, but at least during the merge window they just mean that I can't even see if somebody is introducing any *real* problems when I pull. So warnings disabled for now. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2017-06-30kbuild: handle libs-y archives separately from built-in.o archivesNicholas Piggin
The thin archives build currently puts all lib.a and built-in.o files together and links them with --whole-archive. This works because thin archives can recursively refer to thin archives. However some architectures include libgcc.a, which may not be a thin archive, or it may not be constructed with the "P" option, in which case its contents do not get linked correctly. So don't pull .a libs into the root built-in.o archive. These libs should already have symbol tables and indexes built, so they can be direct linker inputs. Move them out of the --whole-archive option, which restore the conditional linking behaviour of lib.a to thin archives builds.

One parameter is the compiler with which the check should be performed, the other the compiler options to be used instead KBUILD_C*FLAGS.

2017-06-10kbuild: remove duplicated arch/*/include/generated/uapi include pathMasahiro Yamada
Commit 90ac086bca10 ("Makefile: include arch/*/include/generated/uapi before .../generated") introduced this for bisect'ability. The commit chose to promote arch/*/include/generated/uapi in the search path rather than cleaning stale headers. After all, we found that approach was not enough, and ended up with cleaning stale headers by commit cda2c65f981d ("kbuild: Remove stale asm-generic wrappers"). So, the extra search path is no longer needed because Kbuild invokes scripts/Makefile.asm-generic and remove stale headers before it starts descending. This commit is also reverting commit dc33db7c338e ("Kbuild: avoid duplicate include path") because we have no more duplicated path. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

2017-06-06kbuild: simplify silent build (-s) detectionMasahiro Yamada
This allows to detect -s (--silent) option without checking GNU Make version. As commit e36aaea28972 ("kbuild: Fix silent builds with make-4") pointed out, GNU Make 4.x changed the way/order it presents the command line options into MAKEFLAGS. In Make 3.8x, 's' is always the first in a group of short options. The group may be prefixed with '-' in some cases. In Make 4.x, 's' is always the last in a group of short options. As commit e6ac89fabd03 ("kbuild: Correctly deal with make options which contain an 's'") addressed, we also need to deal with long options that contain 's', like --warn-undefined-variables. Test cases: [1] command line input: make --silent -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x: s -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x : s [2] command line input: make -srR -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x: sRr -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x : rRs [3] command line input: make -s -rR --warn-undefined-variables -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x: --warn-undefined-variables -sRr -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x : rRs --warn-undefined-variables My idea to cater to all the cases more easily is to filter out long options (--%), then search 's' with $(findstring ...). This way will be more future-proof even if future versions of Make put 's' in the middle of the group. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

2017-05-18kbuild: skip install/check of headers right under uapi directoriesMasahiro Yamada
Since commit 61562f981e92 ("uapi: export all arch specifics directories"), "make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=$root/usr headers_install" deletes standard glibc headers and others in $(root)/usr/include. The cause of the issue is that headers_install now starts descending from arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi with $(root)/usr/include for its destination when installing asm headers. So, headers already there are assumed to be unwanted. When headers_install starts descending from include/uapi with $(root)/usr/include for its destination, it works around the problem by creating an dummy destination $(root)/usr/include/uapi, but this is tricky. To fix the problem in a clean way is to skip headers install/check in include/uapi and arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi because we know there are only sub-directories in uapi directories. A good side effect is the empty destination $(root)/usr/include/uapi will go away. I am also removing the trailing slash in the headers_check target to skip checking in arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi.
