Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system. As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files. The changes made in this commit are: (1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we get: include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch. (2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from rather than the old path. It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory during the changeover. I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a directory not the install program. (3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly where to find each file. For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each output directory: .../include/uapi/foo/ .../include/generated/uapi/foo/ .../include/foo/ .../include/generated/foo/ The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.

Move include/linux/version.h to the include/generated/ header directory. A later patch will move it to include/uapi/generated/. This allows us to get rid of the objhdr-y list. Signed-off-by:

Partition the header include path flags into two sets, one for kernelspace builds and one for userspace builds. Add the following directories to build after the ordinary include directories so that #include will pick up the UAPI header directly if the kernel header has been moved there. The userspace set (represented by the USERINCLUDE make variable) contains: -I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi -I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated/uapi -I $(srctree)/include/uapi -I include/generated/uapi -include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h and the kernelspace set (represented by the LINUXINCLUDE make variable) contains: -I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include -I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated -I $(srctree)/include -I include --- if not building in the source tree plus everything in the USERINCLUDE set. Then use USERINCLUDE in building the x86 boot code. Signed-off-by:

Thanks to Andi Kleen, gcc 4.6.0 now supports -mfentry for x86 (and hopefully soon for other archs). What this does is to have the function profiler start at the beginning of the function instead of after the stack is set up. As plain -pg (mcount) is called after the stack is set up, and in some cases can have issues with the function graph tracer. It also requires frame pointers to be enabled. The -mfentry now calls __fentry__ at the beginning of the function. This allows for compiling without frame pointers and even has the ability to access parameters if needed. If the architecture and the compiler both support -mfentry then use that instead. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120807194059.392617243@goodmis.org Acked-by:

When the READABLE_ASM cc-option tests were added they were done so prior to the arch Makefile include, resulting in cc-option being run on the host cc instead of the factoring in the cross prefix set up by the architecture. This bumps the include back up so that cc-option actually runs on the compiler that we're building with. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by:

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'. This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel initialization, these relocation entries can be used to relocate the code properly. In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'. 16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code. Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable data references. They are declared in the linker script of the real-mode code. The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree. [ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently produces bad kernels. ] Signed-off-by:

Move the final link of vmlinux to a script to improve readability and maintainability of the code. The Makefile fragments used to link vmlinux has over the years seen far too many changes and the logic had become hard to follow. As the process by nature is serialized there was nothing gained including this in the Makefile. "um" has special link requirments - and the only way to handle this was to hard-code the linking of "um" in the script. This was better than trying to modularize it only for the benefit of "um" anyway. The shell script has been improved after input from: Arnaud Lacombe <lacombar@gmail.com> Nick Bowler <nbowler@elliptictech.com> Signed-off-by:

sparc32 uses an additional final link to support btfix. Introduce a new set of exported variables in the top-level Makefile to make the extra linking step simpler. sparc32 has hardcoded knowledge of kallsyms support. This fix include support for EXTRA_KALLSYM_PASS=1. The ugly part is that it is hardcoded in the arch/sparc/boot Makefile. Signed-off-by:

Now you can do $ make tools/<toolname> from the toplevel kernel directory and have the respective tool built. If you want to build and install it, do $ make tools/<toolname>_install $ make tools/<toolname>_clean should clean the respective tool directories. If you want to clean all in tools, simply do $ make tools/clean Also, if you want to get what the possible targets are, simply calling $ make tools/ should give you the short help. $ make tools/install installs all tools, of course.
