kbuild: remove head-y syntax

2022-10-02T09:06:03Z

Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux. Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry point. A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script. Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section, which is placed before the normal ".text" section. I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner. I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

kbuild: factor out the common installation code into scripts/install.sh

2022-05-11T12:45:53Z

Many architectures have similar install.sh scripts. The first half is really generic; it verifies that the kernel image and System.map exist, then executes ~/bin/${INSTALLKERNEL} or /sbin/${INSTALLKERNEL} if available. The second half is kind of arch-specific; it copies the kernel image and System.map to the destination, but the code is slightly different. Factor out the generic part into scripts/install.sh.

kbuild: use more subdir- for visiting subdirectories while cleaning

2021-10-24T04:49:46Z

Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.rst suggests to use "archclean" for cleaning arch/$(SRCARCH)/boot/, but it is not a hard requirement. Since commit d92cc4d51643 ("kbuild: require all architectures to have arch/$(SRCARCH)/Kbuild"), we can use the "subdir- += boot" trick for all architectures. This can take advantage of the parallel option (-j) for "make clean". I also cleaned up the comments in arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile. The "archdep" target no longer exists.

sparc: move the install rule to arch/sparc/Makefile

2021-09-02T23:17:20Z

Currently, the install target in arch/sparc/Makefile descends into arch/sparc/boot/Makefile to invoke the shell script, but there is no good reason to do so. arch/sparc/Makefile can run the shell script directly. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kbuild: require all architectures to have arch/$(SRCARCH)/Kbuild

2021-05-26T14:10:37Z

arch/$(SRCARCH)/Kbuild is useful for Makefile cleanups because you can use the obj-y syntax. Add an empty file if it is missing in arch/$(SRCARCH)/. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

arch: sparc: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support

2021-01-29T04:35:51Z

The "oprofile" user-space tools don't use the kernel OPROFILE support any more, and haven't in a long time. User-space has been converted to the perf interfaces. Remove the old oprofile's architecture specific support.

sparc: generate uapi header and system call table files

2018-11-19T02:52:22Z

System call table generation script must be run to gener- ate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table_32/64/c32.h files. This patch will have changes which will invokes the script. This patch will generate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table- _32/64/c32.h files by the syscall table generation script invoked by parisc/Makefile and the generated files against the removed files must be identical. The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/- asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file will be included by kernel/systbls_32/64.S file.

kbuild: rename LDFLAGS to KBUILD_LDFLAGS

2018-08-23T23:22:08Z

Commit a0f97e06a43c ("kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add additional options to CC") renamed CFLAGS to KBUILD_CFLAGS. Commit 222d394d30e7 ("kbuild: enable 'make AFLAGS=...' to add additional options to AS") renamed AFLAGS to KBUILD_AFLAGS. Commit 06c5040cdb13 ("kbuild: enable 'make CPPFLAGS=...' to add additional options to CPP") renamed CPPFLAGS to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS. For some reason, LDFLAGS was not renamed. Using a well-known variable like LDFLAGS may result in accidental override of the variable. Kbuild generally uses KBUILD_ prefixed variables for the internally appended options, so here is one more conversion to sanitize the naming convention. I did not touch Makefiles under tools/ since the tools build system is a different world. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Kirill A. Shutemov Reviewed-by: Palmer Dabbelt

sparc: fix KBUILD_DEFCONFIG for ARCH=sparc32

2018-08-21T19:41:12Z

As commit 5ba800962a80 ("kbuild: update ARCH alias info for sparc") addressed, SPARC accepts ARCH=sparc32 as an alias. However, arch/sparc/Makefile wrongly sets KBUILD_DEFCONFIG, then sparc64_defconfig is chosen as the base configuration for ARCH=sparc32. $ make ARCH=sparc32 defconfig *** Default configuration is based on 'sparc64_defconfig' # # configuration written to .config # Fix the logic to choose sparc64_defconfig only when ARCH=sparc64.
