To build host programs, you need to add the program names to 'hostprogs'
to use the necessary build rule, but it is not enough to build them
because there is no dependency.
There are two types of host programs: built as the prerequisite of
another (e.g. gen_crc32table in lib/Makefile), or always built when
Kbuild visits the Makefile (e.g. genksyms in scripts/genksyms/Makefile).
The latter is typical in Makefiles under scripts/, which contains host
programs globally used during the kernel build. To build them, you need
to add them to both 'hostprogs' and 'always-y'.
This commit adds hostprogs-always-y as a shorthand.
The same applies to user programs. net/bpfilter/Makefile builds
bpfilter_umh on demand, hence always-y is unneeded. In contrast,
programs under samples/ are added to both 'userprogs' and 'always-y'
so they are always built when Kbuild visits the Makefiles.
userprogs-always-y works as a shorthand.

Let's keep "git status" happy and quiet.

Even after commit c624adc9cb6e ("samples: fix binderfs sample"), this
sample is never compiled.
'hostprogs' teaches Kbuild that this is a host program, but not enough
to order to compile it. You must add it to 'always-y' to really compile
it.
Since this sample has never been compiled in upstream, various issues
are left unnoticed.
[1] compilers without <linux/android/binderfs.h> are still widely used
<linux/android/binderfs.h> is only available since commit c13295ad219d
("binderfs: rename header to binderfs.h"), i.e., Linux 5.0
If your compiler is based on UAPI headers older than Linux 5.0, you
will see the following error:
samples/binderfs/binderfs_example.c:16:10: fatal error: linux/android/binderfs.h: No such file or directory
#include <linux/android/binderfs.h>
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
You cannot rely on compilers having such a new header.
The common approach is to install UAPI headers of this kernel into
usr/include, and then add it to the header search path.
I added 'depends on HEADERS_INSTALL' in Kconfig, and '-I usr/include'
compiler flag in Makefile.
[2] compile the sample for target architecture
Because headers_install works for the target architecture, only the
native compiler was able to build sample code that requires
'-I usr/include'.
Commit 7f3a59db274c ("kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace
programs") added the new syntax 'userprogs' to compile user-space
programs for the target architecture.
Use it, and then 'ifndef CROSS_COMPILE' will go away.
I added 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK' because $(CC) is not necessarily
capable of linking user-space programs.
[3] use subdir-y to descend into samples/binderfs
Since this directory does not contain any kernel-space code, it has no
point in generating built-in.a or modules.order.
Replace obj-$(CONFIG_...) with subdir-$(CONFIG_...).
[4] -Wunused-variable warning
If I compile this, I see the following warning.
samples/binderfs/binderfs_example.c: In function 'main':
samples/binderfs/binderfs_example.c:21:9: warning: unused variable 'len' [-Wunused-variable]
21 | size_t len;
| ^~~
I removed the unused 'len'.
[5] CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS is not required
Since this is a user-space standalone program, it is independent of
the kernel configuration.
Remove 'depends on ANDROID_BINDERFS'.

A routine check for misspelled Kconfig symbols showed on instance
from last year, the correct symbol name is CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS,
not CONFIG_CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS, so the extra prefix must
be removed in the Kconfig file to allow enabling the sample.
As the actual sample fails to build as a kernel module, change the
Makefile enough to get to build as a hostprog instead.

This adds a simple sample program mounting binderfs and adding, then
removing a binder device. Hopefully, it will be helpful to users who want
to know how binderfs is supposed to be used.
