• 06ed5c2bf   kbuild: Make scripts executable ... Browse Code »

  The Makefiles call the respective interpreter explicitly, but this makes
  it easier to use the scripts manually.

• b1e0d8b70   kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax ... Browse Code »

  The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not
  "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former
  is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers
  such as icecream do expect.

  This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from
  recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel
  miscompilations.

  Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for
  investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this
  incorrect -x parameter syntax.

• ebd9026d9   stackprotector: fix multi-word cross-builds ... Browse Code »

  Stackprotector builds were failing if CROSS_COMPILER was more than
  a single world (such as when distcc was used) - because the check
  scripts used $1 instead of $*.

  Impact: no default -fno-stack-protector if stackp is enabled, cleanup

  Stackprotector make rules had the following problems.

  * cc support test and warning are scattered across makefile and
  kernel/panic.c.

  * -fno-stack-protector was always added regardless of configuration.

  Update such that cc support test and warning are contained in makefile
  and -fno-stack-protector is added iff stackp is turned off. While at
  it, prepare for 32bit support.

• 4f7fd4d7a   [PATCH] Add the -fstack-protector option to the CFLAGS ... Browse Code »

  Add a feature check that checks that the gcc compiler has stack-protector
  support and has the bugfix for PR28281 to make this work in kernel mode.
  The easiest solution I could find was to have a shell script in scripts/
  to do the detection; if needed we can make this fancier in the future
  without making the makefile too complex.
