git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada: "One of the most remarkable improvements in this cycle is, Kbuild is now able to cache the result of shell commands. Some variables are expensive to compute, for example, $(call cc-option,...) invokes the compiler. It is not efficient to redo this computation every time, even when we are not actually building anything. Kbuild creates a hidden file ".cache.mk" that contains invoked shell commands and their results. The speed-up should be noticeable.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2011-04-29Fix handling of backlash character in LINUX_COMPILE_BY nameMarcin Nowakowski
When using a domain login, `whoami` returns the login in user\domain format. This leads to either warnings on unrecognised escape sequences or escaped characters being generated for the user. This patch ensures that any backslash is escaped to a double-backslash to make sure the name is preserved correctly. This patch does not enforce escaping on the KBUILD_BUILD_USER variable, as this is something the user has control of and can escape if required.

2007-02-14[PATCH] Make mkcompile_h use LANG=C and LC_ALL=C for $CC -vs situert
Fix a minor bug in mkcompile_h. As one can see, the current locale is used while getting the version of gcc. This produces problems when a locale other than C or en_US is used. As an example, my /proc/version contains Turkish characters in iso-8859-9 encoding. This patch fixes this issue by making sure that the C locale is used to get gcc's version.

2003-03-07kbuild: Do not clutter output with make -jNSam Ravnborg
Added a new rule filechk used to check when a generated file actually is changed. If there is no actual changes the file is left without updating the timestamp. When building a kernel from scratch two printouts occurs: CHK file-to-generate UPD file-to-generate The first line tell that kbuild checks the file, second line tell that the file is being updated (or created). On successive runs only the first line is printed. Output is the same in verbose and non-verbose mode. This replaces the former update-if-changed which has been deleted. generate-asm-offsets.h has been renamed as well. All users are updated in next patch. Output when generating compile.h follow above style
2002-10-06kbuild: Fix kallsyms buildKai Germaschewski
After reverting my nice but totally broken idea about accelerating the linking steps, make the three-stage .tmp_kallsyms.o generation / addition work again. Yeah, that means that we now link vmlinux three times when CONFIG_KALLSYMS is set, and that's annoying.
2002-09-18kbuild: Fix build number generationKai Germaschewski
For some inexplicable reason, I broke the dependency on a new build number some time ago - it worked fine before, and now it does again. (Whenever vmlinux is relinked, the build number is incremented, and now it ends in the version string again, as it should) Noted by Anton Blanchard.
2002-09-12kbuild: Use normal rule for preprocessing vmlinux.lds.SKai Germaschewski
Use the same rule as in Rules.make for preprocessing vmlinux.lds.S, that also gives automatic dependency tracking. This means we should also use the standard AFLAGS_... instead of CPPFLAGS_... to provide specific additional flags.
2002-07-27kbuild: Make scripts/compile.h when sh != bashKai Germaschewski

2002-07-27kbuild: Fix compiling/installing as different usersKai Germaschewski
"make bzImage && sudo make install" had the problem that during the "sudo make install" the build system would notice that the information in include/linux/compile.h is not accurate (it says "compiled by <user>", but we are root), thus causing compile.h to be updated and leading to some recompiles. We now only update "compile.h" if the current user is the owner of include/linux/autoconf.h, i.e. the user who did the "make *config". So the above sequence will correctly state "compiled by <user>".
2002-06-06kbuild: Enforce UTS limit, use LANG=C for date/timeKai Germaschewski
Patch by Keith Owens, ported to 2.5. If the length of $(VERSION).$(PATCHLEVEL).$(SUBLEVEL)$(EXTRAVERSION) exceeds 64 characters it silently corrupts the utsname data, resulting in garbage for uname -r and problems running the kernel and modules. Abort if KERNELRELEASE is too long. Truncation is not good enough, it results in ambiguous /lib/modules/`uname -r` contents. Ensure that the date/time in uname are always in LANG=C. Users with other languages report that 8 bit values cause the boot messages to go haywire.
2002-06-05kbuild: Fix calling of scriptsKai Germaschewski
We source some scripts, but still pass parameters to them, e.g. . mk_version_h $@ $(KERNELRELEASE) $(VERSION) ... This does not work for all kinds of /bin/sh (it does for bash, that's why I did not notice). The fix is easy: Just mark the scripts executable and call instead of source them. Unfortunately, patch(1) doesn't understand about propagating chmod. bk does, so changing the tree isn't hard, and we introduce an explicit chmod a+x executed during the build for propagating this change into those trees which get "traditionally" patched up.
2002-06-05kbuild: Fix make -s (silent) and add a quiet modeKai Germaschewski
Suppress echoing of commands when using "make -s", so that make -s does indeed have the effect one would expect. Add a quiet mode, which will print not the entire command but only one line per rule. To turn it on, use make KBUILD_VERBOSE=0 vmlinux/whatever or set KBUILD_VERBOSE=0 in your environment. For now, the verbose mode is default, which gives you the old behavior of printing all commands. The output in quiet mode is based on what Keith Owens' kbuild-2.5 does, I like, I did not want to invent yet another output format.
2002-05-22kbuild: Fix warning when .version doesn't exist yetKai Germaschewski
2002-05-20kbuild: Standardize building of init/*Kai Germaschewski
There's no good reason to build the objects in init/ explicitly from the top-level Makefile. Instead, handle init/ like every other subdir, which also provides the automatic checks for a changed command line etc.
2002-05-11Makefile cleanup: Don't rebuild init/version.o on each buildKai Germaschewski
init/version.o includes include/linux/compile.h. As compile.h was regenerated each time make was run, init/version.o was recompiled each time. To avoid this, use the following solution: Generate a temporary new compile.h, and only replace the old one if the new one is different. We consider the files different if more than just date/time changed, since otherwise we would have to rebuild every time anyway. Still, the two files turned out to be different all the time, as we put a generation number into them which is incremented at each invocation of "make". The generation number update is now only done when the kernel config changes, which makes more sense, anyway. So, the UTS_VERSION and generation number now relate to the time the kernel was configured, not the time the actual "make vmlinux" was run, which should be fine.
