kbuild: revert $(realpath ...) to $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd)

2017-10-07T11:08:02+00:00

I thought commit 8e9b46679923 ("kbuild: use $(abspath ...) instead of
$(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd)") was a safe conversion, but it changed
the behavior.

$(abspath ...) / $(realpath ...) does not expand shell special
characters, such as '~'.

Here is a simple Makefile example:

  ---------------->8----------------
  $(info /bin/pwd: $(shell cd ~/; /bin/pwd))
  $(info abspath: $(abspath ~/))
  $(info realpath: $(realpath ~/))
  all:
          @:
  ---------------->8----------------

  $ make
  /bin/pwd: /home/masahiro
  abspath: /home/masahiro/workspace/~
  realpath:

This can be a real problem if 'make O=~/foo' is invoked from another
Makefile or primitive shell like dash.

This commit partially reverts 8e9b46679923.

Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - Use Make-builtin $(abspath ...) helper to get absolute path

 - Add W=2 extra warning option to detect unused macros

 - Use more KCONFIG_CONFIG instead hard-coded .config

kbuild: use $(abspath ...) instead of $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd)

2017-08-31T23:50:32+00:00

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.

perf tools: Robustify detection of clang binary

2017-08-28T19:44:46+00:00

Prior to this patch, make scripts tested for CLANG with ifeq ($(CC),
clang), failing to detect CLANG binaries with different names. Fix it by
testing for the existence of __clang__ macro in the list of compiler
defined macros.

kbuild: simplify silent build (-s) detection

2017-06-06T00:01:12+00:00

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.

tools build: Add tools tree support for 'make -s'

2017-01-26T19:29:00+00:00

When doing a kernel build with 'make -s', everything is silenced except
the objtool build.  That's because the tools tree support for silent
builds is some combination of missing and broken.

Three changes are needed to fix it:

- Makefile: propagate '-s' to the sub-make's MAKEFLAGS variable so the
  tools Makefiles can see it.

- tools/scripts/Makefile.include: fix the tools Makefiles' ability to
  recognize '-s'.  The MAKE_VERSION and MAKEFLAGS checks are copied from
  the top-level Makefile.  This silences the "DESCEND objtool" message.

- tools/build/Makefile.build: add support to the tools Build files for
  recognizing '-s'.  Again the MAKE_VERSION and MAKEFLAGS checks are
  copied from the top-level Makefile.  This silences all the object
  compile/link messages.

tools build: Fix objtool build with ARCH=x86_64

2016-07-22T19:37:44+00:00

The objtool build fails in a cross-compiled environment on a non-x86
host with "ARCH=x86_64":

  tools/objtool/objtool-in.o: In function `decode_instructions':
  tools/objtool/builtin-check.c:276: undefined reference to `arch_decode_instruction'

We could override the ARCH environment variable and change it back to
x86, similar to what the objtool Makefile was doing before; but it's
tricky to override environment variables consistently.

Instead, take a similar approach used by the Linux top-level Makefile
and introduce a SRCARCH Makefile variable which evaluates to "x86" when
ARCH is either "x86_64" or "x86".
