Commit 5c3d1d0abb12 ("kbuild: add a tool to list files ignored by git")
added a new tool, scripts/list-gitignored. My intention was to create
source packages without cleaning the source tree, without relying on git.

Linus strongly objected to it, and suggested using 'git archive' instead.
[1] [2] [3]

This commit goes in that direction - Remove scripts/list-gitignored.c
and rewrites Makefiles and scripts to use 'git archive' for building
Debian and RPM source packages. It also makes 'make perf-tar*-src-pkg'
use 'git archive' again.

Going forward, building source packages is only possible in a git-managed
tree. Building binary packages does not require git.

<title>setlocalversion: use only the correct release tag for git-describe</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6ab7e1f95e96f0c688ae132b0e9a16c0f206689d</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, setlocalversion uses any annotated tag for git-describe.
If we are at a tagged commit, it will not append the commit hash.

  $ git checkout v6.2-rc1^
  $ make -s defconfig kernelrelease
  6.1.0-14595-g292a089d78d3
  $ git tag -a foo -m foo
  $ make -s kernelrelease
  6.1.0

If a local tag 'foo' exists, it pretends to be a released version
'6.1.0', while there are many commits on top of it.

The output should be consistent irrespective of such a local tag.
Pass the correct release tag to --match option of git-describe.

In the mainline kernel, the SUBLEVEL is always '0', which is omitted
from the tag.

  KERNELVERSION      annotated tag
  6.1.0          -&gt;  v6.1            (mainline)
  6.2.0-rc5      -&gt;  v6.2-rc5        (mainline, release candidate)
  6.1.7          -&gt;  v6.1.7          (stable)

To preserve the behavior in linux-next, use the tag derived from
localversion* files if exists. In linux-next, the local version is
specified by the localversion-next file.

Concatenate all components in the last line instead of accumulating

No functional change is intended. A preparation for the next change.

.scmversion is used by (src)rpm-pkg and deb-pkg to carry KERNELRELEASE.

In fact, deb-pkg does not rely on it any more because the generated
debian/rules specifies KERNELRELEASE from the command line.

Do likwise for (src)rpm-pkg, and remove this feature.
For the same reason, you do not need to save LOCALVERSION in the
spec file.

<title>kbuild: do not quote string values in include/config/auto.conf</title>

<id>urn:sha1:129ab0d2d9f38b9d43df35235fc66c6740d6928b</id>
<content type='text'>
The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.

Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.

Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):

    CONFIG_X="foo bar"

Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.

There are some patterns:

  [1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
  [2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
  [3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
  [4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))

These are not only ugly, but also fragile.

[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
   CONFIG_X=" foo bar "

[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
   CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"

[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.

Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.

This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.

These are the string type symbols referenced in Makefiles or scripts:

    ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
    ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME
    ARC_TUNE_MCPU
    BUILTIN_DTB_SOURCE
    CC_IMPLICIT_FALLTHROUGH
    CC_VERSION_TEXT
    CFG80211_EXTRA_REGDB_KEYDIR
    EXTRA_FIRMWARE
    EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR
    EXTRA_TARGETS
    H8300_BUILTIN_DTB
    INITRAMFS_SOURCE
    LOCALVERSION
    MODULE_SIG_HASH
    MODULE_SIG_KEY
    NDS32_BUILTIN_DTB
    NIOS2_DTB_SOURCE
    OPENRISC_BUILTIN_DTB
    SOC_CANAAN_K210_DTB_SOURCE
    SYSTEM_BLACKLIST_HASH_LIST
    SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS
    SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS
    TARGET_CPU
    UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST
    XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_FAMILY
    XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_HW_VER
    XTENSA_VARIANT_NAME

I checked them one by one, and fixed up the code where necessary.

Richard Weinberger pointed out the risk of sourcing the kernel config
from shell scripts [1], and proposed some patches [2], [3]. It is a good
point, but it took a long time because I was wondering how to fix this.

This commit goes with simple grep approach because there are only a few
scripts including the kernel configuration.

scripts/link_vmlinux.sh has references to a bunch of CONFIG options,
all of which are boolean. I added is_enabled() helper as
scripts/package/{mkdebian,builddeb} do.

scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh uses 'eval', stating "to expand the whitelist
path". I removed it since it is the issue we are trying to fix.

I was a bit worried about the cost of invoking the grep command over
again. I extracted the grep parts from it, and measured the cost. It
was approximately 0.03 sec, which I hope is acceptable.

[test code]

  $ cat test-grep.sh
  #!/bin/sh

  is_enabled() {
          grep -q "^$1=y" include/config/auto.conf
  }

  is_enabled CONFIG_LTO_CLANG
  is_enabled CONFIG_LTO_CLANG
  is_enabled CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION
  is_enabled CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC
  is_enabled CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_OBJTOOL
  is_enabled CONFIG_VMLINUX_VALIDATION
  is_enabled CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
  is_enabled CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL

The commit 042da426f8eb ("scripts/setlocalversion: simplify the short
version part") reduces indentation. Unfortunately, it also changes behavior
in a subtle way - if the user has empty "LOCALVERSION" variable, the plus
sign is appended to the kernel version. It wasn't appended before.

This patch reverts to the old behavior - we append the plus sign only if
the LOCALVERSION variable is not set.
