2011-05-02kbuild: move scripts/basic/docproc.c to scripts/docproc.cPeter Foley
Move docproc from scripts/basic to scripts so it is only built for *doc targets instead of every time the kernel is built.
2011-05-02kbuild: Allow to combine multiple W= levelsMichal Marek
Add support for make W=12, make W=123 and so on, to enable warnings from multiple W= levels. Normally, make W=<level> does not include warnings from the previous level.

2011-04-28kbuild: asm-generic supportSam Ravnborg
There is an increasing amount of header files shared between individual architectures in asm-generic. To avoid a lot of dummy wrapper files that just include the corresponding file in asm-generic provide some basic support in kbuild for this. With the following patch an architecture can maintain a list of files in the file arch/$(ARCH)/include/asm/Kbuild To use a generic file just add: generic-y += <name-of-header-file.h> For each file listed kbuild will generate the necessary wrapper in arch/$(ARCH)/include/generated/asm. When installing userspace headers a wrapper is likewise created. The original inspiration for this came from the unicore32 patchset - although a different method is used. The patch includes several improvements from Arnd Bergmann. Michael Marek contributed Makefile.asm-generic. Remis Baima did an intial implementation along to achive the same - see https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/13352/ Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Acked-by: Guan Xuetao <guanxuetao@mprc.pku.edu.cn> Tested-by: Guan Xuetao <guanxuetao@mprc.pku.edu.cn> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Remis Lima Baima <remis.developer@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>
2011-04-28kbuild: implement several W= levelsSam Ravnborg
Building a kernel with "make W=1" produces far too much noise to be useful. Divide the warning options in three groups: W=1 - warnings that may be relevant and does not occur too often W=2 - warnings that occur quite often but may still be relevant W=3 - the more obscure warnings, can most likely be ignored When building the whole kernel, those levels produce: W=1 - 4859 warnings W=2 - 1394 warnings W=3 - 86666 warnings respectively. Warnings have been counted with Geert's script at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/geert/linux-log/linux-log-summary.pl Many warnings occur from .h files so fixing one file may have a nice effect on the total number of warnings. With these changes I am actually tempted to try W=1 now and then. Previously there was just too much noise. Borislav: - make the W= levels exclusive - move very noisy and making little sense for the kernel warnings to W=3 - drop -Woverlength-strings due to useless warning message - copy explanatory text for the different warning levels to 'make help' - recount warnings per level Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Cc: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

2011-04-15kbuild: move KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS from Kconfig to MakefileArtem Bityutskiy
At the moment we have the CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS Kconfig switch, which users can enable or disable while configuring the kernel. This option is then used by 'make' to determine whether an extra kallsyms pass is needed or not. However, this approach is not nice and confusing, and this patch moves CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS from Kconfig to Makefile instead. The rationale is below. 1. CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is really about the build time, not run-time. There is no real need for it to be in Kconfig. It is just an additional work-around which should be used only in rare cases, when someone breaks kallsyms, so Kbuild/Makefile is much better place for this option. 2. Grepping CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS shows that many defconfigs have it enabled, probably not because they try to work-around a kallsyms bug, but just because the Kconfig help text is confusing and does not really make it clear that this option should not be used unless except when kallsyms is broken. 3. And since many people have CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS enabled in their Kconfig, we do might fail to notice kallsyms bugs in time. E.g., many testers use "make allyesconfig" to test builds, which will enable CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS and kallsyms breakage will not be noticed. To address that, this patch: 1. Kills CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS 2. Changes Makefile so that people can use "make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1" to enable the extra pass if needed. Additionally, they may define KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS as an environment variable. 3. By default KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is disabled and if kallsyms has issues, "make" should print a warning and suggest using KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> [mmarek: Removed make help text, is not necessary] Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

2011-03-17KBuild: silence "'scripts/unifdef' is up to date."Mike Waychison
While changing our build system over to use the headers_install target as part of our klibc build, the following message started showing up in our logs: make[2]: `scripts/unifdef' is up to date. It turns out that the build blindly invokes a recursive make on this target, which causes make to emit this message when the target is already up to date. This isn't seen for most targets as the rest of the build relies primarily on the default target and on PHONY targets when invoking make recursively. Silence the above message when building unifdef as part of headers_install by hiding it behind a new PHONY target called "build_unifdef" that has an empty recipe.

2011-03-09kbuild: Add extra gcc checksBorislav Petkov
Add a 'W=1' Makefile switch which adds additional checking per build object. The idea behind this option is targeted at developers who, in the process of writing their code, want to do the occasional make W=1 [target.o] and let gcc do more extensive code checking for them. Then, they could eyeball the output for valid gcc warnings about various bugs/discrepancies which are not reported during the normal build process.

2010-12-14kbuild: fix interaction of CONFIG_IKCONFIG and KCONFIG_CONFIGBen Gardiner
If you try to build a kernel with KCONFIG_CONFIG set (to a value not equal to .config) and that config sets CONFIG_IKCONFIG then the build will fail with: make[1]: *** No rule to make target `.config', needed by \ `kernel/config_data.gz'. Stop. because the kernel/Makefile contains a direct reference to .config. This issue has been present since the introduction of KCONFIG_CONFIG in 14cdd3c402bf7c66f0bcd76e290f0770a54a4b21.

2010-10-14ftrace: Rename config option HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNTSteven Rostedt
The config option used by archs to let the build system know that the C version of the recordmcount works for said arch is currently called HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD which enables BUILD_C_RECORDMCOUNT. To be more consistent with the name that all archs may use, it has been renamed to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT. This will be less confusing since we are building a C recordmcount and not a mcount_record.
