Kbuild is supposed to support mixed targets. (%config and build targets)
But "make all" did nothing if it was run with configuration targets.
For example,
$ LANG=C make defconfig all
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o
SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c
SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.lex.c
SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.hash.c
HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o
HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/conf
*** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig'
#
# configuration written to .config
#
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
This commits allows "make %config all" and makes sure
mixed targets are built one by one in the given order.

W=... provides extra gcc checks.
Having such code in scripts/Makefile.build results in the same flags
being added to KBUILD_CFLAGS multiple times becuase
scripts/Makefile.build is invoked every time Kbuild descends into
the subdirectories.
Since the top Makefile is already too cluttered, this commit moves
all of extra gcc check stuff to a new file scripts/Makefile.extrawarn,
which is included from the top Makefile.

Both gcc (well, actually gnu as) and clang support the "-Wa,-gdwarf-2" option
(though clang does not support "-Wa,--gdwarf-2"). Since these flags are equivalent
in meaning, this patch uses the one which is better supported across compilers.

objdiff is useful when doing large code cleanups. For example, when
removing checkpatch warnings and errors from new drivers in the staging
tree.
objdiff can be used in conjunction with a git rebase to confirm that
each commit made no changes to the resulting object code. It has the
same return values as diff(1).
This was written specifically to support adding the skein and threefish
cryto drivers to the staging tree. I needed a programmatic way to
confirm that commits changing >90% of the lines didn't inadvertently
change the code.
Temporary files (objdump output) are stored in
/path/to/linux/.tmp_objdiff
'make mrproper' will remove this directory.

CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y results in a .mod.c for every compiled file in the
kernel. Issuing a 'make cscope' on a compiled kernel tree results in
the cscope files containing *.mod.c files.
[prarit@prarit linux]# make cscope
[prarit@prarit linux]# cat cscope.files | grep mod.c | wc -l
4807
These files are not useful for cscope and should be ignored. For example,
# line filename / context / line
1 105 arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.mod.c <<GLOBAL>>
{ 0x618911fc, __VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR(numa_node) },

4 37 drivers/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.mod.c <<GLOBAL>>
{ 0x618911fc, __VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR(numa_node) },
<snip>
Add an export to RCS_FIND_IGNORE so it can be used in scripts/tags.sh
and add explicitly ignore *.mod.c files.

Add support to toplevel Makefile for compiling with clang, both for
HOSTCC and CC. Use cc-option to prevent gcc option from breaking clang, and
from clang options from breaking gcc.
Clang 3.4 semantics are the same as gcc semantics for unsupported flags. For
unsupported warnings clang 3.4 returns true but shows a warning and gcc shows
a warning and returns false.

Kbuild supports saving output files in a separate directory.
But the build directory must be created beforehand. For example,
$ mkdir -p dir/to/store/output/files
$ make O=dir/to/store/output/files defconfig
Creating a build directory automatically would be useful.

As of v3.7, the UAPI changes relocated headers around such that the
kernel version header lived in a new place.
If a person is bisecting and if you go back to pre-UAPI days,
you will create an include/linux/version.h -- then if you checkout a
post-UAPI kernel, and even run "make distclean" it still won't delete
that old version file. So you get a situation like this:
$ grep -R LINUX_VERSION_CODE include/
include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h:#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 200192
include/linux/version.h:#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132646
The value in that second line is representative of a v2.6.38 version.
And it will be sourced/used, hence leading to strange behaviours, such
as drivers/staging content (which typically hasn't been purged of version
ifdefs) failing to build.
Since it is a subtle mode of failure, lets always clobber the old
file when doing a distclean.

device_node to be a kobject that is exposed via sysfs and removal of
the old /proc/device-tree code. This simplifies the device tree

Unlike other build products in the Linux kernel, there is no 'make
*install' mechanism to put devicetree blobs in a standard place.
This commit adds a new 'dtbs_install' make target which copies all of
the dtbs into the INSTALL_DTBS_PATH directory. INSTALL_DTBS_PATH can be
set before calling make to change the default install directory. If not
set then it defaults to:
$INSTALL_PATH/dtbs/$KERNELRELEASE.
This is done to keep dtbs from different kernel versions separate until
things have settled down. Once the dtbs are stable, and not so strongly
linked to the kernel version, the devicetree files will most likely move
to their own repo. Users will need to upgrade install scripts at that
time.
v7: (reworked by Grant Likely)
- Moved rules from arch/arm/Makefile to arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile so
that each dtb install could have a separate target and be reported as
part of the make output.
- Fixed dependency problem to ensure $KERNELRELEASE is calculated before
attempting to install
- Removed option to call external script. Copying the files should be
sufficient and a build system can post-process the install directory.
Despite the fact an external script is used for installing the kernel,
I don't think that is a pattern that should be encouraged. I would
rather see buildroot type tools post process the install directory to
rename or move dtb files after installing to a staging directory.
- Plus it is easy to add a hook after the fact without blocking the
rest of this feature.
- Move the helper targets into scripts/Makefile.lib with the rest of the
common dtb rules

According to Documentation/Changes, make 3.80 is still being supported
for building the kernel, hence make files must not make (unconditional)
use of features introduced only in newer versions. Commit 8779657d29c0
("stackprotector: Introduce CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG") however
introduced an "else ifdef" construct which make 3.80 doesn't understand.
Also correct a warning message still referencing the old config option
name.
Apart from that I question the use of "ifdef" here (but it was used that
way already prior to said commit): ifeq (,y) would seem more to the
point.

GCC 4.9 and newer have a new warning -Wdate-time, which warns on any use
of __DATE__, __TIME__, or __TIMESTAMP__, which would make the build
non-deterministic. Now that the kernel does not use any of those
macros, turn on -Werror=date-time if available, to keep it that way.
The kernel already (optionally) records this information at build time
in a single place; other kernel code should not duplicate that.

Change the debuging info generation flag in KBUILD_AFLAGS from '-gdwarf-2' to
'-Wa,--gdwarf-2'. This will properly generate the debugging info for .S files
when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y.
It seems current gcc does not pass a '--gdwarf-2' option on to the assembler
when '-gdwarf-2' is on its command line (note the differece in the gcc and as
flags). This change provides the correct assembler flag to gcc, and so does
not rely on gcc to emit a flag for the assembler.

This changes the stack protector config option into a choice of
"None", "Regular", and "Strong":
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG
"Regular" means the old CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y option.
"Strong" is a new mode introduced by this patch. With "Strong" the
kernel is built with -fstack-protector-strong (available in
gcc 4.9 and later). This option increases the coverage of the stack
protector without the heavy performance hit of -fstack-protector-all.
For reference, the stack protector options available in gcc are:
-fstack-protector-all:
Adds the stack-canary saving prefix and stack-canary checking
suffix to _all_ function entry and exit. Results in substantial
use of stack space for saving the canary for deep stack users
(e.g. historically xfs), and measurable (though shockingly still
low) performance hit due to all the saving/checking. Really not
suitable for sane systems, and was entirely removed as an option
from the kernel many years ago.
-fstack-protector:
Adds the canary save/check to functions that define an 8
(--param=ssp-buffer-size=N, N=8 by default) or more byte local
char array. Traditionally, stack overflows happened with
string-based manipulations, so this was a way to find those
functions. Very few total functions actually get the canary; no
measurable performance or size overhead.
-fstack-protector-strong
Adds the canary for a wider set of functions, since it's not
just those with strings that have ultimately been vulnerable to
stack-busting. With this superset, more functions end up with a
canary, but it still remains small compared to all functions
with only a small change in performance. Based on the original
design document, a function gets the canary when it contains any
of:
- local variable's address used as part of the right hand side
of an assignment or function argument
- local variable is an array (or union containing an array),
regardless of array type or length
- uses register local variables

Find below a comparison of "size" and "objdump" output when built with
gcc-4.9 in three configurations:
- defconfig
11430641 kernel text size
36110 function bodies
- defconfig + CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR
11468490 kernel text size (+0.33%)
1015 of 36110 functions are stack-protected (2.81%)
- defconfig + CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG via this patch
11692790 kernel text size (+2.24%)
7401 of 36110 functions are stack-protected (20.5%)
With -strong, ARM's compressed boot code now triggers stack
protection, so a static guard was added. Since this is only used
during decompression and was never used before, the exposure
here is very small. Once it switches to the full kernel, the
stack guard is back to normal.
Chrome OS has been using -fstack-protector-strong for its kernel
builds for the last 8 months with no problems.

Instead of duplicating the CC_STACKPROTECTOR Kconfig and
Makefile logic in each architecture, switch to using
HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR and keep everything in one place. This
retains the x86-specific bug verification scripts.
