commit 9feeb638cde083c737e295c0547f1b4f28e99583 upstream.
In 2016 GNU Make made a backwards incompatible change to the way '#'
characters were handled in Makefiles when used inside functions or
macros:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/make.git/commit/?id=c6966b323811c37acedff05b57
Due to this change, when attempting to run `make prepare' I get a
spurious make syntax error:
/home/earnest/linux/tools/objtool/.fixdep.o.cmd:1: *** missing separator. Stop.
When inspecting `.fixdep.o.cmd' it includes two lines which use
unescaped comment characters at the top:
\# cannot find fixdep (/home/earnest/linux/tools/objtool//fixdep)
\# using basic dep data
This is because `tools/build/Build.include' prints these '\#'
characters:
printf '\# cannot find fixdep (%s)\n' $(fixdep) > $(dot-target).cmd; \
printf '\# using basic dep data\n\n' >> $(dot-target).cmd; \
This completes commit 9564a8cf422d ("Kbuild: fix # escaping in .cmd files
for future Make").

commit 9564a8cf422d7b58f6e857e3546d346fa970191e upstream.
I tried building using a freshly built Make (4.2.1-69-g8a731d1), but
already the objtool build broke with
orc_dump.c: In function ‘orc_dump’:
orc_dump.c:106:2: error: ‘elf_getshnum’ is deprecated [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
if (elf_getshdrnum(elf, &nr_sections)) {
Turns out that with that new Make, the backslash was not removed, so cpp
didn't see a #include directive, grep found nothing, and
-DLIBELF_USE_DEPRECATED was wrongly put in CFLAGS.
Now, that new Make behaviour is documented in their NEWS file:
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
thus a call such as:
foo := $(shell echo '#')
is legal. Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
foo := $(shell echo '\#')
Now this latter will resolve to "\#". If you want to write makefiles
portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
C := \#
foo := $(shell echo '$C')
This was claimed to be fixed in 3.81, but wasn't, for some reason.
To detect this change search for 'nocomment' in the .FEATURES variable.
This also fixes up the two make-cmd instances to replace # with $(pound)
rather than with \#. There might very well be other places that need
similar fixup in preparation for whatever future Make release contains
the above change, but at least this builds an x86_64 defconfig with the
new make.

Add new rule to compile .cpp file to .o use g++. C++ support is required
for built-in clang and LLVM support.
Linker side support will be introduced by following commits.

In some cases, like for fixdep and shortly for jevents, we need to build a tool
to run on the host that will be used in building a tool, such as perf, that is
being cross compiled, so do like the kernel and provide HOSTCC, HOSTLD and HOSTAR
to do that.

Making the fixdep helper to be invoked within dep-cmd.
Each user of the build framework needs to make sure fixdep exists before
executing the build itself.
If the build doesn't find fixdep, it falls back to the old style
dependency tracking.

Adding new build framework into 'tools/build' to be used by tools.
There's no change for actual building at this point, it comes in the
next patches.
The idea and more details are explained in the
'tools/build/Documentation/Build.txt' file.
I adopted everything from the kernel build system, with some changes to
allow for multiple binaries build definitions.
While the kernel's build output is single image (forget modules) we need
to be able to build several binaries/libraries.
The basic idea is that sser provides 'Build' files with objects
definitions like:
perf-y += a.o
perf-y += b.o
libperf-y += c.o
libperf-y += d.o
and the build framework outputs files:
perf-in.o # a.o, b.o compiled in
libperf-in.o # c.o, d.o compiled in
