  • Some macro's and defines are needed when parsing memory, and without
    compiling the kernel as -g3 they are not available in the debug-symbols.

    We use the pre-processor here to extract constants to a dedicated module
    for the linux debugger extensions

    Top level Kbuild is used to call in and generate the constants file,
    while maintaining dependencies on autogenerated files in
    include/generated

  • time.o gets rebuilt unconditionally due to a leftover Makefile rule
    which was placed there for development purposes.

    Remove it along with the commented out always rule in the toplevel

  • kernel/time/timeconst.h is moved to include/generated/ and generated
    by the top level Kbuild. This allows using timeconst.h in an earlier

    x86, asm: Fix CFI macro invocations to deal with shortcomings in gas

    This breaks MN10300 arch as this changes many instances of instructions
    similar to the following:

    MOV number,D0

    which represents an immediate value load into:

    MOV (number),D0

    which the assembler then interprets as a load from absolute address.

  • gas prior to (perhaps) 2.16.90 has problems with passing non-
    parenthesized expressions containing spaces to macros. Spaces, however,
    get inserted by cpp between any macro expanding to a number and a
    subsequent + or -. For the +, current x86 gas then removes the space
    again (future gas may not do so), but for the - the space gets retained
    and is then considered a separator between macro arguments.

    Fix the respective definitions for both the - and + cases, so that they
    neither contain spaces nor make cpp insert any (the latter by adding
    seemingly redundant parentheses).

  • Commit 7d3cc8b tried to keep bounds.h and asm-offsets.h during make
    clean by filtering these out of $(clean-files), but they are listed in
    $(targets) and $(always) and thus removed automatically. Introduce a new
    $(no-clean-files) variable to really skip such files in Makefile.clean.

  • Adjust the asm symlink support so we do not create the
    symlink unless really needed.
    We check the precense of include/asm-$ARCH by checking
    for the system.h file. We may end up with a stale directory
    so it is not enough to check if the directory is present.

  • Since 97965478a66fbdf0f4ad5e4ecc4828f0cb548a45 ("mm: Get rid of __ZONE_COUNT")
    mmzone.h includes bounds.h.
    Calling make clean after make prepare removes bounds.h
    again so when building external modules this fails.

  • Add the ability to pass comments into asm-offsets.h by generating asm
    output like

    -># comment line

    Mips needs this feature to preserve the comments that are in
    asm-mips/asm-offsets.h right now.

    Then remove the special handling for mips from Kbuild and convert mips to use
    the new string to include the comments.

  • The use of enums create constants that are not available to the preprocessor
    when building the kernel (f.e. MAX_NR_ZONES).

    Arch code already has a way to export constants calculated to the preprocessor
    through the asm-offsets.c file. Generate something similar for the core
    kernel through kbuild.

  • Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch
    automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is
    implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled.
    On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings:
    init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented
    init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented
    init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented

    The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls
    that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

    Other contributors to this patch are Russell King
    and Stéphane Jourdois

  • No file in rpm binary package should have the RPM_BUILD_ROOT string in it.
    To simplify building of external modules, our kernel-source package
    contains some temp files from the Kbuild system. asm/asm-offsets.h is one
    of the files that contains the absolute path if make O=$O is used.

    * This file was generated by /var/tmp/kernel-source-2.6.14_rc4-build/usr/src/linux-2.6.14-rc4-2/Kbuild

    Remove the $RPM_BUILD_ROOT string in the shipped tempfile.

  • Removed obsolete stuff from arch makefile.
    mips had a special rule for generating asm-offsets.h so preserved it
    using an architecture specific hook in top-level Kbuild file.
    Renamed .h file to asm-offsets.h

  • Building asm-offsets.h has been moved to a seperate Kbuild file
    located in the top-level directory. This allow us to share the
    functionality across the architectures.

    The old rules in architecture specific Makefiles will die
    in subsequent patches.

    Furhtermore the usual kbuild dependency tracking is now used
    when deciding to rebuild asm-offsets.s. So we no longer risk
    to fail a rebuild caused by asm-offsets.c dependencies being touched.

    With this common rule-set we now force the same name across
    all architectures. Following patches will fix the rest.
