  • U-Boot uses the 'mkimage' tool to produce various image types,
    not only uImage image type. Rename the invocation name from
    UIMAGE to MKIMAGE.

    The following command was used to do the replacement:
    git grep 'quiet_cmd_mkimage.* = UIMAGE' | cut -d : -f 1 | \
    xargs -i sed -i "s@\(quiet_cmd_mkimage\)\(.*\) = UIMAGE @\1\2 = MKIMAGE@" {}

  • This commit changes the working directory
    where the build process occurs.

    Before this commit, build process occurred under the source
    tree for both in-tree and out-of-tree build.

    That's why we needed to add $(obj) prefix to all generated
    files in makefiles like follows:
    $(obj)u-boot.bin: $(obj)u-boot

    Here, $(obj) is empty for in-tree build, whereas it points
    to the output directory for out-of-tree build.

    And our old build system changes the current working directory
    with "make -C " syntax when descending into the
    sub-directories.

    On the other hand, Kbuild uses a different idea
    to handle out-of-tree build and directory descending.

    The build process of Kbuild always occurs under the output tree.
    When "O=dir/to/store/output/files" is given, the build system
    changes the current working directory to that directory and
    restarts the make.

    Kbuild uses "make -f $(srctree)/scripts/Makefile.build obj="
    syntax for descending into sub-directories.
    (We can write it like "make $(obj)=" with a shorthand.)
    This means the current working directory is always the top
    of the output directory.

  • The top level Makefile does not do any recursion into subdirs when
    cleaning, so these clean/distclean targets in random arch/board dirs
    never get used. Punt them all.

    MAKEALL didn't report any errors related to this that I could see.

  • Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
    found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
    binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
    extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".

    This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
    of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
    linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
    This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
    cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
    inspired.

    The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
    extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
    references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
    scripts.

    This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
    include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
    resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
    - disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
    - enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.
