kbuild: use more portable 'command -v' for cc-cross-prefix

2019-06-07T15:38:47Z

To print the pathname that will be used by shell in the current environment, 'command -v' is a standardized way. [1] 'which' is also often used in scripts, but it is less portable. When I worked on commit bd55f96fa9fc ("kbuild: refactor cc-cross-prefix implementation"), I was eager to use 'command -v' but it did not work. (The reason is explained below.) I kept 'which' as before but got rid of '> /dev/null 2>&1' as I thought it was no longer needed. Sorry, I was wrong. It works well on my Ubuntu machine, but Alexey Brodkin reports noisy warnings on CentOS7 when 'which' fails to find the given command in the PATH environment. $ which foo which: no foo in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin) Given that behavior of 'which' depends on system (and it may not be installed by default), I want to try 'command -v' once again. The specification [1] clearly describes the behavior of 'command -v' when the given command is not found: Otherwise, no output shall be written and the exit status shall reflect that the name was not found. However, we need a little magic to use 'command -v' from Make. $(shell ...) passes the argument to a subshell for execution, and returns the standard output of the command. Here is a trick. GNU Make may optimize this by executing the command directly instead of forking a subshell, if no shell special characters are found in the command and omitting the subshell will not change the behavior. In this case, no shell special character is used. So, Make will try to run it directly. However, 'command' is a shell-builtin command, then Make would fail to find it in the PATH environment: $ make ARCH=m68k defconfig make: command: Command not found make: command: Command not found make: command: Command not found In fact, Make has a table of shell-builtin commands because it must ask the shell to execute them. Until recently, 'command' was missing in the table. This issue was fixed by the following commit: | commit 1af314465e5dfe3e8baa839a32a72e83c04f26ef | Author: Paul Smith | Date: Sun Nov 12 18:10:28 2017 -0500 | | * job.c: Add "command" as a known shell built-in. | | This is not a POSIX shell built-in but it's common in UNIX shells. | Reported by Nick Bowler . Because the latest release is GNU Make 4.2.1 in 2016, this commit is not included in any released versions. (But some distributions may have back-ported it.) We need to trick Make to spawn a subshell. There are various ways to do so: 1) Use a shell special character '~' as dummy $(shell : ~; command -v $(c)gcc) 2) Use a variable reference that always expands to the empty string (suggested by David Laight) $(shell command$${x:+} -v $(c)gcc) 3) Use redirect $(shell command -v $(c)gcc 2>/dev/null) I chose 3) to not confuse people. The stderr would not be polluted anyway, but it will provide extra safety, and is easy to understand. Tested on Make 3.81, 3.82, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.2.1 [1] http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/command.html Fixes: bd55f96fa9fc ("kbuild: refactor cc-cross-prefix implementation") Cc: linux-stable # 5.1 Reported-by: Alexey Brodkin Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Tested-by: Alexey Brodkin

kbuild: drop support for cc-ldoption

2019-05-20T15:02:59Z

If you want to see if your linker supports a certain flag, then ask the linker directly with ld-option (not the compiler with cc-ldoption). Checking for linker flag support is an antipattern that complicates the usage of various linkers other than bfd via -fuse-ld={bfd|gold|lld}.

kbuild: remove 'addtree' and 'flags' magic for header search paths

2019-05-18T02:49:57Z

The 'addtree' and 'flags' in scripts/Kbuild.include are so compilecated and ugly. As I mentioned in [1], Kbuild should stop automatic prefixing of header search path options. I fixed up (almost) all Makefiles in the kernel. Now 'addtree' and 'flags' have been removed. Kbuild still caters to add $(srctree)/$(src) and $(objtree)/$(obj) to the header search path for O= building, but never touches extra compiler options from ccflags-y etc. [1]: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9632347/ Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kbuild: remove cc-version macro

2019-03-04T13:34:59Z

There is no more direct user of this macro; it is only used by cc-ifversion. Calling this macro is not efficient since it invokes the compiler to get the compiler version. CONFIG_GCC_VERSION is already calculated in the Kconfig stage, so Makefile can reuse it. Here is a note about the slight difference between cc-version and CONFIG_GCC_VERSION: When using Clang, cc-version is evaluated to '0402' because Clang defines __GNUC__ and __GNUC__MINOR__, and looks like GCC 4.2 in the version point of view. On the other hand, CONFIG_GCC_VERSION=0 when $(CC) is clang. There are currently two users of cc-ifversion: arch/mips/loongson64/Platform arch/powerpc/Makefile They are not affected by this change. The format of cc-version is , while CONFIG_GCC_VERSION . I adjusted cc-ifversion for the difference of the number of digits. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kbuild: refactor cc-cross-prefix implementation

2019-02-27T12:41:27Z

- $(word 1, ) is equivalent to $(firstword ) - hardcode "gcc" instead of $(CC) - minimize the shell script part A little more notes in case $(filter-out -%, ...) is not clear. arch/mips/Makefile passes prefixes depending on the configuration. CROSS_COMPILE := $(call cc-cross-prefix, $(tool-archpref)-linux- \ $(tool-archpref)-linux-gnu- $(tool-archpref)-unknown-linux-gnu-) In the Kconfig stage (e.g. when you run 'make defconfig'), neither CONFIG_32BIT nor CONFIG_64BIT is defined. So, $(tool-archpref) is empty. As a result, "-linux -linux-gnu- -unknown-linux-gnu" is passed into cc-cross-prefix. The command 'which' assumes arguments starting with a hyphen as command options, then emits the following messages: Illegal option -l Illegal option -l Illegal option -u I think it is strange to define CROSS_COMPILE depending on the CONFIG options since you need to feed $(CC) to Kconfig, but it is how MIPS Makefile currently works. Anyway, it would not hurt to filter-out invalid strings beforehand. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kbuild: add real-prereqs shorthand for $(filter-out FORCE,$^)

2019-01-28T00:11:17Z

In Kbuild, if_changed and friends must have FORCE as a prerequisite. Hence, $(filter-out FORCE,$^) or $(filter-out $(PHONY),$^) is a common idiom to get the names of all the prerequisites except phony targets. Add real-prereqs as a shorthand. Note: We cannot replace $(filter %.o,$^) in cmd_link_multi-m because $^ may include auto-generated dependencies from the .*.cmd file when a single object module is changed into a multi object module. Refer to commit 69ea912fda74 ("kbuild: remove unneeded link_multi_deps"). I added some comment to avoid accidental breakage. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Rob Herring

kbuild: use assignment instead of define ... endef for filechk_* rules

2019-01-06T01:22:35Z

You do not have to use define ... endef for filechk_* rules. For simple cases, the use of assignment looks cleaner, IMHO. I updated the usage for scripts/Kbuild.include in case somebody misunderstands the 'define ... endif' is the requirement. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Heiko Carstens

kbuild: change filechk to surround the given command with { }

2019-01-06T00:46:51Z

filechk_* rules often consist of multiple 'echo' lines. They must be surrounded with { } or ( ) to work correctly. Otherwise, only the string from the last 'echo' would be written into the target. Let's take care of that in the 'filechk' in scripts/Kbuild.include to clean up filechk_* rules. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada
