When building a kernel using the O= syntax to save output
files in a separate output directory now create a small Makefile in
that same dir.
This Makefile allow one to use make in the output directory without
the hassle of going back to the kernel source tree.
The O= option is added by this Makefile stub.
Please note that the Makefile silently overwrite an old one, so changes
will be lost if modified.
If there is a need to tweak a Makefile in the output directory it is recommended
to use the filename 'makefile', which GNU Make will try first.

Many times it would be nice to quickly package up a kernel tree you're
working on, without having to rebuild the whole thing again from a clean
source tree (like the current rpm-pkg target does). The patch below
adds an "binrpm-pkg" target which uses your existing (already built)
tree.
Modified by me to always do a make and use binrpm-pkg.

From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org>
Being able to recover the configuration from a kernel is very useful and it
would be nice to default this option to Yes. Currently, to have the config
available both from the image (using extract-ikconfig) and via /proc we
keep two copies of the original .config in the kernel. One in plain text
and one gzip compressed. This is not optimal.
This patch removes the plain text version of the configuration and updates
the extraction tools to locate and use the gzip'd version of the file.
This has the added bonus of providing us with the exact same results in
both cases, the original .config; including the comments.

To prepare kbuild for more kernel packaging formats move all packaging support
to scripts/package.
In top-level Makefile introduce generic support for all package formats using
target names *-pkg. Included the old rpm target for backward compatibility.
A new variable KBUILD_IMAGE is used to specify what kernel image will be part
of the final package, and is to be set by the arch specific makefile.
KBUILD_IMAGE may be overridden from command line or environment. KBUILD_IMAGE
will see wider usage later, mainly when installing kernel images.
Introducing KBUILD_IMAGE allowed arch specific details to be deleted from the
mkspec and builddeb scripts.
While in the process added the deb packet format. Script is From: Wichert
Akkerman <wichert@wiggy.net>
To create a RPM packet use 'make rpm-pkg'.
To create a deb packet use 'make deb-pkg'.
Both targets are included in 'make help'

On i386, stack usually grows with "sub $0x8,%esp" and shrinks with
"add $0x8,%esp" respectively. In some cases, though, stack grows with
"add $0xffffff80,%esp" and shrinks with "sub $0xffffff80,%esp".
Obviously, we don't want to miss those cases.
Since in either case add and sub seem to be balanced and contain the
same parameter, we don't need a second regex. We simply accept hex
numbers of up to 8 digits and treat them as negative numbers when the
sub appears to be a little too high.
...or so I thought. But another day of testing proved me wrong again.
Some functions do stuff like "sub $0x10,%esp", ..., "add $0x20,%esp".
In other words, add and sub are *NOT* balanced. Manual inspection
showed that 0x20 is a more realistic number, so I accept either
variant, just in case. We pay for this with a bunch of duplicates in
our output, but that beats missing some stack hogs.
In the long run, this script has to be replaced by gcc options,
really. Looking at the result and guessing back is such a stupid
idea.

This patch makes the following code work again:
#ifdef STT_REGISTER

info->hdr->e_machine == EM_SPARCV9) {
/* Ignore register directives. */
if (ELF_ST_TYPE(sym->st_info) == STT_REGISTER)
break;
}
#endif
This portion of code is sparc specific and nothing else in modpost.c uses
e_machine meaning cross-compiling for sparc on i386 (or any little endian
machine) is the only way to experience the bug.
Without it, e_machine has the wrong value and modpost then generates a lot
of "*** Warning: \"symbol\" [filename.ko] undefined" messages.

From: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
The external module support recently introduced caused a number of problems:
- To build an external module the Module.symvers file was needed
- To create the Module.symvers file a module was required
- If Module.symvers was missing kbuild boiled out with an error
- If vmlinux was missing also the stage 2 of module build failed (make -k)
- It was not documented what was needed to actually bauild a module
The following patch addresses this by adding the following functionality:
- Always generate the Module.symvers file
- Ignore a missing Module.symvers file
- Add a new target modules_prepare, it prepares the kernel for building
external modules, and is also usefull with O=
- And it adds some more comments to Makefile.modpost, so others may follow
it with some luck
- .modpost.cmd is no longer generated
This should close all reports on issues with respect to building external
modules with current kernel - which has been identified as kernel problems.

When building external modules the $PWD/.tmp_versions directory is used.
The .tmp_versions directory in the kernel tree cannot be used because this
would clutter up the kernel tree especially when more than one external
module is being build for the same kernel tree.
This patch make sure to create $PWD/.tmp_versions, and to delete it during
make clean. It also removes warning about 'messed with SUBDIRS', this is
no longer relevant when .tmp_versions is made outside the kernel tree.
|
|
From: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
Based on initial patch from Andreas Gruenbacher there is now better support
for building external modules with kbuild.
The preferred syntax is now:
make -C $KERNELSRC M=$PWD
but the old syntax:
make -C $KERNELSRC SUBDIRS=$PWD modules
will remain supported.
The major differences compared to before are that:
1) No attempt is made to neither check nor update any files in $KERNELSRC
2) Module versions are now supported
During stage 2 of kernel compilation where the modules are built, a new file
Module.symvers is created. This file contains the version for all symbols
exported by the kernel and any module compiled within the kernel tree.
When the external module is build the Module.symvers file is being read and
symbol versions are used from that file.
The purpose of avoiding any updates in the kernel src is that usually in a
distribution the kernel src will be read-only, and there is no need to try to
update it. And when building an external module the focus is on the module,
not the kernel.
I expect the distributions will start using something like this:
kernel src - with no generated files. Not even .config:
/usr/src/linux-<version>
Output from build:
/lib/modules/linux-<version>/build
where build is a real directory with relevant output files and the
appropriate .config.
I have some Documentation in the pipe-line, but wants to see how this
approach is received before completing it.
This patch is made on top of the previously posted patch to divide
make clean in three steps.
And you may need to edit the following line in the patch to make it apply:

Sam Ravnborg found these.
1) have_vmlinux is a global, and should not be reset every time.
2) We pretend every module needs cleanup_module so it gets versioned,
but that isn't defined for CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=n.
3) The visible effect of this is that modpost will start complaning about
undefined symbols - previously this happened only when the module was
isntalled.

Brian Gerst's patch which moved __this_module out from module.h into the
module post-processing had a side effect. genksyms didn't see the
undefined symbols for modules without a module_init (or module_exit), and
hence didn't generate a version for them, causing the kernel to be tainted.
The simple solution is to always include the versions for these functions.
Also includes two cleanups:
1) alloc_symbol is easier to use if it populates ->next for us.
2) add_exported_symbol should set owner to module, not head of module
list (we don't use this field in entries in that list, fortunately).

The following patch will fix that. Actually the argument of __typeof__ is

decl_specifier_seq also matches some invalid constructs, but I don't think
this is a problem in practice, since the compiler will reject them.

Rusty did not like the __dot_sym approach and suggested instead:
1) make rem, urem, mul, umul, div and udiv aliases to .rem, .urem etc:
extern int rem(int, int) __attribute__((weak,alias(".rem")));
2) EXPORT_SYMBOL(rem) etc.
3) Check genksyms recognises that prototype (it should).
4) Copy "dedotify" from ppc64 to handle them on load.
The only real downside is the risk that someone else will export
those names, but I think that's pretty unlikely.

I was pretty sure it was something I had caused, so I gave it a spin. What
actually happened was that we tried to build the target 'silentoldconfig'
in parrallel with 'scripts'. Since 'silentoldconfig' started a new make
and then the config target needed 'scripts' we saw two parallel runs.
The way I decided to fix it was to split scripts/ in two parts. The first
part is now the very basic stuff - moved to scripts/basic/. The second
part is dependent on kernel config etc. and kept in scripts/
In the 2.7 timeframe i will redo this initial stuff - it's becoming too
messy for anyone to understand today.

modpost unconditionally searched for ".o" assuming this is always the
suffix of the module. This fails in two cases:
a) when building external modules where any directory include ".o" in
the name. One example is a directory named: .../cvs.alsa.org/...
b) when someone names a kernel directory so it contains ".o". One
example is drivers/scsi/aic.ok/...
case b) was triggered by renaming the directory for aic7xxx, and modifying
Makefile and Kconfig. This caused make modules to fail.

I need the following patch to kill a warning (__endian() may be unused)
when cross-compiling m68k kernels on an ia32 box.
|
|
From: Rusty Russell <rusty@au1.ibm.com>
The way it works is that the .mod file contains the name of the module (as
before), but succeeding lines are the constituent parts (assumed to be .c
files, which usually works: if they use MODULE_VERSION in a file for which
this isn't true we'll get a warning).
As we postprocess modules, we look in the .modinfo section for a
"version=", which is placed by the MODULE_VERSION() macro. This will be of
form "version=<macroarg>" "\0" [24 chars] "\0". The 24 chars are replaced
by the md4 sum of the .c files and any files they #include using '#include
"file"' which are found in the current directory. Whitespace is collapsed
outside strings, and comments are ignored for purposes of the sum.
The result is a .modinfo entry such as
version=1.16ac-rustytest B13E9451C4CA3B89577DEFF
At the kernel summit, various people asked for a MODULE_VERSION macro to
store module strings (for later access through sysfs). A simple md4 is
needed to identify changes in modules which, inevitably, do not update the
version. It skips whitespace and comments, and includes #includes which
are in the same dir.
The module versions should be set according to this definition, based on
the RPM one, or CVS Revision tags. Violators will be shot.
[<epoch>`:']<version>[`-'<extraversion>]
<epoch>: A (small) unsigned integer which allows you to start versions
anew. If not mentioned, it's zero. eg. "2:1.0" is after
"1:2.0".
<version>: The <version> may contain only alphanumerics.
<extraversion>: Like <version>, but inserted for local
customizations, eg "rh3" or "rusty1".
Comparison of two versions (assuming same epoch):
Split each into all-digit and all-alphabetical parts. Compare each one one
at a time: digit parts numerically, alphabetical in ASCII order. So 0.10
comes after 0.9.

This patch adds an option to use -mregparm=3 while compiling the kernel. I
did an LTP run and it showed no additional failures over an non regparm
kernel.
According to some gcc developers it should be safe to use in all gccs that
are still supports (2.95 and up)
I didn't make it the default because it will break all binary only modules
(although they can be fixed by adding a wrapper that calls them with
"asmlinkage"). Actually it may be a good idea to make this default with
2.7.1 or somesuch.
We add new kbuild infrastructure: the command
scripts/gcc-version.sh $(CC)
will print out the version of gcc in a canonical 4-digit form suitable for
performing numerical tests against.

scripts/gcc-version.sh:
* GNU tail no longer supports 'tail -1' syntax.
We should consider adding -fweb option:
vanilla:
$ size vmlinux

Also note 0.1 ... 1.0% speedup in various benchmarks.
This option is not enabled by default at -O2 because it
(like -fomit-frame-pointer) makes debugging impossible.

This allows us to do something like
config FB_RADEON
select I2C_ALGOBIT if FB_RADEON_I2C
where FB_RADEON_I2C itself depends on FB_RADEON without getting a bogus
warning about recursive dependencies.
This matters because the select takes the default minimum dependancy
from the parent menu, so we want to do this under FB_RADEON rather than
under FB_RADEON_I2C (so that the I2C_ALGOBIT config depends properly
on the state of FB_RADEON)

This patch fixes menuconfig so it can display help text for individual
choice group config entries.
Previously it would only display the help text attached to the "choice"
item. There was no way to display the help attached to individual config
entries inside the choice group. Typically, the "choice" item has no help
text, and all the useful help is attached to the individual entries, so
this was a bit of a problem.

When utilising the make O=... option the include options for gcc were
mangled even when absolute paths was used. Also remove duplication of

architectures to modify CPPFLAGS].
This patch allows xconfig to be build with make O=... xconfig.It will also
help development of external modules with absolute paths for their -I
options.
Note: As a side effect a full recompile of the kernel takes place due to
changes in number of gcc options.

Building drivers/eisa were broken in non-verbose mode.
This has been fixed by escaping "'" for cmd. It was used in $(call cmd,eisaid).

Separate output directory support enables the following (at least):
o Building several configurations from the same SRC base, and in parrallel
o Building from a RO media
o More efficient build if files are retreived via NFS (files stored locally)
Usage is simple:
cd /path/to/kernel/src
mkdir ~/build/kernel
make O=~/build/kernel [Make options]
Please note: The O= syntax must be used for ALL invocations of make.
As an alternative you may set KBUILD_OUTPUT to the directory where
to put the output files.
The patch works for me, and I have tried with various configurations,
including allnoconfig and defconfig.
How it works:
If the O= option is used, or KBUILD_OUTPUT is set then a second invocation
of make happens in the output directory.
The second invocation of make uses VPATH to tell make where to locate
the files. Furthermore include options for gcc is modifyied to point
both in the directory where the kernel src is located, and in the
directory where the output files are located. The latter is used for
generated .h files.
When building the kernel the asm symlink is created. To support this
a new 'include2' directory is created. Within include2/ asm is a symlink to
the asm-$(ARCH) directory in the kernel src.
Also when building the kernel the asm-offset.h file is created, and
located in the include/asm-$(ARCH) directory, but included via
<asm/asm-offset.h>.
Therefore within include/ another asm symlink is created pointing to
the asm-$(ARCH) directory located in the output directory.
In Makefile.build the output directory is created if not already present.
This was needed to support xfs, and oprofile.
The patch is loosly based on ideas from Kai G. Roman Zippel
introduced support for this in kconfig long time ago
|
|
This patch introduces the framework required for architectures to supply
several independent configurations. Three architectures does this today:
ppc, ppc64 and arm.
The infrastructure provided here requires the files to be located in
the following directory:
arch/$(ARCH)/configs
The file shall be named <board>_defconfig
To select the configuration for ppc/gemini simply issue the following command:
make gemini_defconfig
This will generate a valid configuration.
ppc and ppc64 already comply to the above requirements, arm needs some
trivial updates.

When building a kernel right after 'make mrproper' resulted in a very short

'silentoldconfig' in scripts/kconfig/Makefile.
Cleaned up a bit in scripts/kconfig/Makefile

This fixes a bug with multiple targets.
Olaf Hering reported that the build failed for PowerPc if used like
this: make oldconfig zImage
The reason for this was that .config was not present for any targets
specified in arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile and below.
That's because .config would not be included when oldconfig is present
in the list of targets. The fix is to move handling of *config task to
the kconfig/Makefile. Furthermore the logic in top-level makefile has
changed a bit, creating a more logial structure. When building a fresh
kernel, the user is now told that .config is missing, not an anonymous
report that .config did not exist.
The error has survided this long because the targets used in i386/boot
in general does not use CONFIG_ symbols.
Olaf Hering has tested this patch with success.

As of 2.5.74, make oldconfig always disables existing optional choices

Originally by Michael Still <mikal@stillhq.com>
This patch adds two new targets to the docbook makefile -- mandocs, and
installmandocs. The targets require two new perl scripts in the scripts/
directory, but in return we get a series of man pages for kernel
functions, which are installed in man section 9. This is a good thing, as
many programmers expect documentation to be available with man, and
hunting through various PS or PDF documents to find the documentation for
the function you want can be quite frustrating.
The man pages are just extracted from the various existing DocBook SGML
documents, which are generated by kernel-doc. You also need to have
docbook2man installed on your machine.
Please note the formatting is not perfect, but I will tweak
other stuff later with further patches -- this is just an initial
implementation.

New makefile variable introduced: lib-y
The lib-y syntax allows you to do the usual tricks such as:
lib-$(CONFIG_SMP) += percpu_counter.o
A built-in.o is always present in a directory that list .o files in
either obj-* or lib-*.
In contrast, lib.a is made only when lib-y is defined.
I also updated lib/Makefile, so that crc32.o is now always built-in
if selected.
|
|
This fixes a problem which can show up with the new select facility, e.g.
a symbol is forced to 'y', so we should never even try to change such
symbols.
|
|
This is an important fix to allow changing boolean symbols, whose
dependency is 'm'. All internal symbol states must be converted from
the tristate into boolean the state.

The 'range' keyword allows to define a lower and upper limit for integer

|
|
The 'select' keyword defines a lower limit for symbols and allows to
select other symbols when a symbol is selected, e.g.:
config JOLIET
bool "Microsoft Joliet CDROM extensions"
select NLS
This means when JOLIET is selected, NLS will be selected as well.
|
|
"default" accepts now not only a single symbol but also an expression
which can be assigned to boolean and tristate symbols.
|
|
Add the following new keywords: def_tristate, def_bool, def_boolean,
select, enable and range.
Add support for def_tristate and def_bool, which combines default and
bool/tristate into a single statement and a allows simpler definition

Now that sparc64 is using gcc-3.x we can disallow gcc-2.91, etc.
Documentation/Changes already says 2.95.3, which is working fine for me.
With this change, we no longer require that per-cpu data definitions be
initialised. That was a workaround for a bug in older gccs. So remove the
build infrastructure which was checking for that.
Also, mention that nfs-utils-1.0.3 is required. It isn't required yet, but
will be once we enable larger dev_t: there is an interface for exportfs which
passes dev_t's into the kernel which breaks with larger dev_t. That
interface is old, deprecated and is not used in nfs-utils-1.0.3.

qconf also has now an ".." entry to make it more obvious
how to get to a parent menu.

This adds the support for the menuconfig keyword, which allows to define
a config symbol and a submenu with a single step, e.g. instead of
menu "SCSI device support"
config SCSI
tristate "SCSI device support"
this is now enough:
menuconfig SCSI
tristate "SCSI device support"
|
|
A menu entry was possibly inserted to high in the menu hierarchie if
the previous entry was a derived config symbol.

This restores the old config behaviour for dependencies on 'm',
such entries are only activ if CONFIG_MODULES is enabled as well.

The former name "kbuild-targets" did not give the user the intuitive feeling
that this target will be build regards less of any dependencies

EXTRA_TARGETS has been overloaded with functionality.
This is now split in two:
targets := list targets kbuild did not know of otherwise
extra-y := list targets to be build when not building modules only.
extra-y is mainly used to list .o files that is not to be included
in the fnal built-in.o file for a directory.
|
|
EXTRA_TARGETS served several purposes before:
1) List targets to be build (built-in only)
2) Inform kbuild of targets within the makefile
Mixing the above are causing confusion, so for now on
targets :=
is used to inform kbuild about targets in a Makefile - that it otherwise
did not know about.
kbuild uses the "targets :=" information to:
a) read the dependency file .target.cmd
b) delete the target file during make clean

Added a new rule filechk used to check when a generated file
actually is changed. If there is no actual changes the file
is left without updating the timestamp.
When building a kernel from scratch two printouts occurs:
CHK file-to-generate
UPD file-to-generate
The first line tell that kbuild checks the file, second line tell that
the file is being updated (or created).
On successive runs only the first line is printed.
Output is the same in verbose and non-verbose mode.
This replaces the former update-if-changed which has been deleted.
generate-asm-offsets.h has been renamed as well.
All users are updated in next patch.
Output when generating compile.h follow above style

This happens if you have encountered a compile error in a module.
In this case you did not succeed the compilation of fs/binfmt_aout,
and therefore no .o file can be located.
kbuild assumes this is because you have messed with SUBDIRS, which is wrong.

s390x has a reference to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ in each module
that is resolved by the module loader. This patch prevents
modpost from emitting a warning about that symbol.

We warn when symbols end in __per_cpu, but aren't in the per-cpu section.
However, checksum symbols gave false positives.
|

Those were missing, not particularly harmful, but still needed for
correctness.

We had a dummy dependency on include/linux/compile.h, but it really caused
more trouble than benefits. It's not actually needed for the module
postprocessing, it was only put there to make sure we recognize when
gcc changed under us. However, we really can only do so much, and
the rest of kbuild won't notice a changed gcc either, so if the user replaces
gcc during a build, he just can't rely on the build doing the right thing.
The common cases are still covered, anyway. When the command to invoke
gcc changes ("CC=gcc32") we notice, and when the path to
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/include/stdarg.h
changes (which luckily contains the "2.96", we'll notice and handle that,
too.

This patch replaces it's (it is) with its (possessive of it)
in the following cases where the possessive of it is meant.
to it's -> to its
into it's -> into its
from it's -> from its
of it's -> of its
with it's -> with its
under it's -> under its
about it's -> about its

make rpm has been broken in several kernel versions, fix it. Solves
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=373 which Paolo Ciarrocchi pushed
me to fix.
1) Moved make rpm to the noconfig section, thus allowing it to see
the clean target.
2) Fixed the commandline for find
3) Use rpmbuild if present
4) In mkspec use the generic all target, and drop the dep target
This made the build command arch independent
