Since commit 3a475b21 ("kbuild: Inform user to pass ARCH= for make
mrproper"), if you try out-of-tree build with an unclean source tree,
it suggests to run 'make ARCH=<ARCH> mrproper'.

This looks odd when you are not cross-compiling the kernel. Show the
'ARCH=<ARCH>' part only when ARCH= was given from the command line.
If ARCH is the default (native build) or came from the environment,
it should simply suggest 'make mrproper' as before.

Do not force the absolute path to the source tree. If you prefer the

Now that the single target build descends into sub-directories in the
same way as the normal build, these dummy Makefiles are not needed
any more.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

Currently, the single target build directly descends into the directory
of the target. For example,

  $ make foo/bar/baz.o

... directly descends into foo/bar/.

On the other hand, the normal build usually descends one directory at
a time, i.e. descends into foo/, and then foo/bar/.

This difference causes some problems.

[1] miss subdir-asflags-y, subdir-ccflags-y in upper Makefiles

    The options in subdir-{as,cc}flags-y take effect in the current
    and its sub-directories. In other words, they are inherited
    downward. In the example above, the single target will miss
    subdir-{as,cc}flags-y if they are defined in foo/Makefile.

[2] could be built in a different directory

    As Documentation/kbuild/modules.rst section 4.3 says, Kbuild can
    handle files that are spread over several sub-directories.

    The build rule of foo/bar/baz.o may not necessarily be specified in
    foo/bar/Makefile. It might be specifies in foo/Makefile as follows:

    [foo/Makefile]
    obj-y := bar/baz.o

    This often happens when a module is so big that its source files
    are divided into sub-directories.

    In this case, there is no Makefile in the foo/bar/ directory, yet
    the single target descends into foo/bar/, then fails due to the
    missing Makefile. You can still do 'make foo/bar/' for partial
    building, but cannot do 'make foo/bar/baz.s'. I believe the single
    target '%.s' is a useful feature for inspecting the compiler output.

    Some modules work around this issue by putting an empty Makefile
    in every sub-directory.

This commit fixes those problems by making the single target build
descend in the same way as the normal build does.

Another change is the single target build will observe the CONFIG
options. Previously, it allowed users to build the foo.o even when
the corresponding CONFIG_FOO is disabled:

   obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o

In the new behavior, the single target build will just fail and show
"No rule to make target ..." (or "Nothing to be done for ..." if the
stale object already exists, but cannot be updated).

The disadvantage of this commit is the build speed. Now that the
single target build visits every directory and parses lots of
Makefiles, it is slower than before. (But, I hope it will not be
too slow.)

Most of these are false positives because scripts/headers_check.pl
parses comment lines.

It is also false negative. arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/auxvec.h contains
CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION and CONFIG_X86_64, but the only former is reported.

It would be possible to fix scripts/headers_check.pl, of course.
However, we already have some duplicated checks between headers_check
and CONFIG_UAPI_HEADER_TEST. At this moment of time, there are still
dozens of headers excluded from the header test (usr/include/Makefile),
but we might be able to remove headers_check eventually.

I re-implemented it in scripts/headers_install.sh by using sed because
the most of code in scripts/headers_install.sh is written in sed.

This patch works like this:

[1] Run scripts/unifdef first because we need to drop the code
    surrounded by #ifdef __KERNEL__ ... #endif

[2] Remove all C style comments. The sed code is somewhat complicated
    since we need to deal with both single and multi line comments.

    Precisely speaking, a comment block is replaced with a space just
    in case.

      CONFIG_FOO/* this is a comment */CONFIG_BAR

    should be converted into:

      CONFIG_FOO CONFIG_BAR

    instead of:

      CONFIG_FOOCONFIG_BAR

[3] Match CONFIG_... pattern. It correctly matches to all CONFIG
    options that appear in a single line.

After this commit, this would detect the following warnings, all of
which are real ones.

Flex and bison are used for kconfig, dtc, genksyms, all of which are
host programs. I never imagine the kernel embeds a parser or a lexer.

Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

We generally expect bison to create not only a C file, but also a
header, which will be included from the lexer.

Currently, Kbuild generates them in separate rules. So, for instance,
when building Kconfig, you will notice bison is invoked twice:

  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/conf.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/confdata.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/expr.o
  LEX     scripts/kconfig/lexer.lex.c
  YACC    scripts/kconfig/parser.tab.h
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/lexer.lex.o
  YACC    scripts/kconfig/parser.tab.c
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/parser.tab.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/preprocess.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/symbol.o
  HOSTLD  scripts/kconfig/conf

Make handles such cases nicely in pattern rules [1]. Merge the two
rules so that one invokcation of bison can generate both of them.

  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/conf.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/confdata.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/expr.o
  LEX     scripts/kconfig/lexer.lex.c
  YACC    scripts/kconfig/parser.tab.[ch]
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/lexer.lex.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/parser.tab.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/preprocess.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/symbol.o
  HOSTLD  scripts/kconfig/conf

[1] Pattern rule

GNU Make manual says:
"Pattern rules may have more than one target. Unlike normal rules,
this does not act as many different rules with the same prerequisites
and recipe. If a pattern rule has multiple targets, make knows that
the rule's recipe is responsible for making all of the targets. The
recipe is executed only once to make all the targets. When searching
for a pattern rule to match a target, the target patterns of a rule
other than the one that matches the target in need of a rule are
incidental: make worries only about giving a recipe and prerequisites
to the file presently in question. However, when this file's recipe is
run, the other targets are marked as having been updated themselves."

$(basename ...) trims the last suffix. Using it is more intuitive in
my opinion.

This pattern rule makes %.asn1.c and %.asn1.h at the same time.
Previously, the short log showed only either of them, depending on
the target file in question.

To clarify that two files are being generated by the single recipe,
I changed the log as follows:

The gold linker has known issues of failing the build both in random and in
predictible ways:

 - The x86/X32 VDSO build fails with:

   arch/x86/entry/vdso/vclock_gettime-x32.o:vclock_gettime.c:function do_hres:
   error: relocation overflow: reference to 'hvclock_page'

   That's a known issue for years and the usual workaround is to disable
   CONFIG_X86_32

 - A recent build failure is caused by turning a relocation into an
   absolute one for unknown reasons. See link below.

 - There are a couple of gold workarounds applied already, but reports
   about broken builds with ld.gold keep coming in on a regular base and in
   most cases the root cause is unclear.

In context of the most recent fail H.J. stated:

  "Since building a workable kernel for different kernel configurations
   isn't a requirement for gold, I don't recommend gold for kernel."

So instead of dealing with attempts to duct tape gold support without
understanding the root cause and without support from the gold folks, fail
the build when gold is detected.

This patch adds a check to warn about static EXPORT_SYMBOL* functions
during the modpost. In most of the cases, a static symbol marked for

the exporting mark or by removing the static attribute and adding the
