tools: Factor HOSTCC, HOSTLD, HOSTAR definitions

2021-01-30T12:54:10Z

commit c8a950d0d3b926a02c7b2e713850d38217cec3d1 upstream. Several Makefiles in tools/ need to define the host toolchain variables.

kbuild: support LLVM=1 to switch the default tools to Clang/LLVM

2020-08-26T08:40:47Z

commit a0d1c951ef08ed24f35129267e3595d86f57f5d3 upstream. As Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst implies, building the kernel with a full set of LLVM tools gets very verbose and unwieldy. Provide a single switch LLVM=1 to use Clang and LLVM tools instead of GCC and Binutils. You can pass it from the command line or as an environment variable. Please note LLVM=1 does not turn on the integrated assembler. You need to pass LLVM_IAS=1 to use it. When the upstream kernel is ready for the integrated assembler, I think we can make it default. We discussed what we need, and we agreed to go with a simple boolean flag that switches both target and host tools: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/28/494 https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/4/3/43 Some items discussed, but not adopted: - LLVM_DIR When multiple versions of LLVM are installed, I just thought supporting LLVM_DIR=/path/to/my/llvm/bin/ might be useful. CC = $(LLVM_DIR)clang LD = $(LLVM_DIR)ld.lld ... However, we can handle this by modifying PATH. So, we decided to not do this. - LLVM_SUFFIX Some distributions (e.g. Debian) package specific versions of LLVM with naming conventions that use the version as a suffix. CC = clang$(LLVM_SUFFIX) LD = ld.lld(LLVM_SUFFIX) ... will allow a user to pass LLVM_SUFFIX=-11 to use clang-11 etc., but the suffixed versions in /usr/bin/ are symlinks to binaries in /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin/, so this can also be handled by PATH.

objtool: Fix ARCH=x86_64 build error

objtool: Clobber user CFLAGS variable

2019-09-10T06:49:52Z

If the build user has the CFLAGS variable set in their environment, objtool blindly appends to it, which can cause unexpected behavior. Clobber CFLAGS to ensure consistent objtool compilation behavior.

objtool: Move x86 insn decoder to a common location

2019-09-01T01:27:52Z

The kernel tree has three identical copies of the x86 instruction decoder. Two of them are in the tools subdir. The tools subdir is supposed to be completely standalone and separate from the kernel. So having at least one copy of the kernel decoder in the tools subdir is unavoidable. However, we don't need *two* of them. Move objtool's copy of the decoder to a shared location, so that perf will also be able to use it.

objtool: Allow AR to be overridden with HOSTAR

2019-05-17T09:10:42Z

Currently, this Makefile hardcodes GNU ar, meaning that if it is not available, there is no way to supply a different one and the build will fail. $ make AR=llvm-ar CC=clang LD=ld.lld HOSTAR=llvm-ar HOSTCC=clang \ HOSTLD=ld.lld HOSTLDFLAGS=-fuse-ld=lld defconfig modules_prepare ... AR /out/tools/objtool/libsubcmd.a /bin/sh: 1: ar: not found ... Follow the logic of HOST{CC,LD} and allow the user to specify a different ar tool via HOSTAR (which is used elsewhere in other tools/ Makefiles).
