      kbuild: do not update config for 'make kernelrelease' · a29d4d8c
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      'make kernelrelease' depends on CONFIG_LOCALVERSION(_AUTO), but
for the same reason as install targets, we do not want to update
the configuration just for printing the kernelrelease string.

This is likely to happen when you compiled the kernel with
CROSS_COMPILE, but forget to pass it to 'make kernelrelease'.

      kbuild: do not update config when running install targets · d7942413
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      "make syncconfig" is automatically invoked when any of the following
happens:

 - .config is updated
 - any of Kconfig files is updated
 - any of environment variables referenced in Kconfig is changed

Then, it updates configuration files such as include/config/auto.conf
include/generated/autoconf.h, etc.

Even install targets (install, modules_install, etc.) are no exception.
However, they should never ever modify the source tree.  Install
targets are often run with root privileges.  Once those configuration
files are owned by root, "make mrproper" would end up with permission
error.

Install targets should just copy things blindly.  They should not care
whether the configuration is up-to-date or not.  This makes more sense
because we are interested in the configuration that was used in the
previous kernel building.

This issue has existed since before, but rarely happened.  I expect
more chance where people are hit by this; with the new Kconfig syntax
extension, the .config now contains the compiler information.  If you
cross-compile the kernel with CROSS_COMPILE, but forget to pass it
for "make install", you meet "any of environment variables referenced
in Kconfig is changed" because $(CC) is referenced in Kconfig.
Another scenario is the compiler upgrade before the installation.

Install targets need the configuration.  "make modules_install" refer
to CONFIG_MODULES etc.  "make dtbs_install" also needs CONFIG_ARCH_*
to decide which dtb files to install.  However, the auto-update of
the configuration files should be avoided.  We already do this for
external modules.

Now, Make targets are categorized into 3 groups:

[1] Do not need the kernel configuration at all

    help, coccicheck, headers_install etc.

[2] Need the latest kernel configuration

    If new config options are added, Kconfig will show prompt to
    ask user's selection.

    Build targets such as vmlinux, in-kernel modules are the cases.

[3] Need the kernel configuration, but do not want to update it

    Install targets except headers_install, and external modules
    are the cases.

      kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special target · 9c2af1c7
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      If Make gets a fatal signal while a shell is executing, it may delete
the target file that the recipe was supposed to update.  This is needed
to make sure that it is remade from scratch when Make is next run; if
Make is interrupted after the recipe has begun to write the target file,
it results in an incomplete file whose time stamp is newer than that
of the prerequisites files.  Make automatically deletes the incomplete
file on interrupt unless the target is marked .PRECIOUS.

The situation is just the same as when the shell fails for some reasons.
Usually when a recipe line fails, if it has changed the target file at
all, the file is corrupted, or at least it is not completely updated.
Yet the file’s time stamp says that it is now up to date, so the next
time Make runs, it will not try to update that file.

However, Make does not cater to delete the incomplete target file in
this case.  We need to add .DELETE_ON_ERROR somewhere in the Makefile
to request it.

scripts/Kbuild.include seems a suitable place to add it because it is
included from almost all sub-makes.

Please note .DELETE_ON_ERROR is not effective for phony targets.

The external module building should never ever touch the kernel tree.
The following recipe fails if include/generated/autoconf.h is missing.
However, include/config/auto.conf is not deleted since it is a phony
target.

 PHONY += include/config/auto.conf

 include/config/auto.conf:
         $(Q)test -e include/generated/autoconf.h -a -e $@ || (          \
         echo >&2;                                                       \
         echo >&2 "  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.";           \
         echo >&2 "         include/generated/autoconf.h or $@ are missing.";\
         echo >&2 "         Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it."; \
         echo >&2 ;                                                      \

      kbuild: use 'include' directive to load auto.conf from top Makefile · 0a16d2e8
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      When you build targets that require the kernel configuration, dot-config
is set to 1, then the top-level Makefile includes auto.conf.  However,
Make considers its inclusion is optional because the '-include' directive
is used here.

If a necessary configuration file is missing for the external module
building, the following error message is displayed:

  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
         include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.
         Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.

However, Make still continues building; /bin/false let the creation of
'include/config/auto.config' fail, but Make can ignore the error since
it is included by the '-include' directive.

I guess the reason of using '-include' directive was to suppress
the warning when you build the kernel from a pristine source tree:

  Makefile:605: include/config/auto.conf: No such file or directory

The previous commit made sure include/config/auto.conf exists after
the 'make *config' stage.  Now, we can use the 'include' directive
without showing the warning.

      kconfig: allow all config targets to write auto.conf if missing · 00c864f8
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      Currently, only syncconfig creates or updates include/config/auto.conf
and some other files.  Other config targets create or update only the
.config file.

When you configure and build the kernel from a pristine source tree,
any config target is followed by syncconfig in the build stage since
include/config/auto.conf is missing.

We are moving compiler tests from Makefile to Kconfig.  It means that
parsing Kconfig files will be more costly since Kconfig invokes the
compiler commands internally.  Thus, we want to avoid invoking Kconfig
twice (one for *config to create the .config, and one for syncconfig
to synchronize the auto.conf).  If auto.conf does not exist, we can
generate all configuration files in the first configuration stage,
which will save the syncconfig in the build stage.

Please note this should be done only when auto.conf is missing.  If
*config blindly did this, time stamp files under include/config/ would
be unnecessarily touched, triggering unneeded rebuild of objects.

I assume a scenario like this:

 1. You have a source tree that has already been built
    with CONFIG_FOO disabled

 2. Run "make menuconfig" to enable CONFIG_FOO

 3. CONFIG_FOO turns out to be unnecessary.
    Run "make menuconfig" again to disable CONFIG_FOO

 4. Run "make"

In this case, include/config/foo.h should not be touched since there
is no change in CONFIG_FOO.  The sync process should be delayed until
the user really attempts to build the kernel.

This commit has another motivation; I want to suppress the 'No such
file or directory' warning from the 'include' directive.

The top-level Makefile includes auto.conf with '-include' directive,
like this:

  ifeq ($(dot-config),1)
  -include include/config/auto.conf
  endif

This looks strange because auto.conf is mandatory when dot-config is 1.
I guess only the reason of using '-include' is to suppress the warning
'include/config/auto.conf: No such file or directory' when building
from a clean tree.  However, this has a side-effect; Make considers
the files included by '-include' are optional.  Hence, Make continues
to build even if it fails to generate include/config/auto.conf.  I will
change this in the next commit, but the warning message is annoying.
(At least, kbuild test robot reports it as a regression.)

With this commit, Kconfig will generate all configuration files together
with the .config and I guess it is a solution good enough to suppress
the warning.

Note:
GNU Make 4.2 or later does not display the warning from the 'include'
directive if include files are successfully generated.  See GNU Make
commit 87a5f98d248f ("[SV 102] Don't show unnecessary include file
errors.")  However, older GNU Make versions are still widely used.

      kconfig: make syncconfig update .config regardless of sym_change_count · 16952b77
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      syncconfig updates the .config only when sym_change_count > 0, i.e.
any change in config symbols has been detected.

Not only symbols but also comments are contained in the .config file.
If only comments are updated, they are not fed back to the .config,
then the stale comments are left-over.  Of course, this is just a
matter of comments, but why not fix it.

I see some scenarios where this happens.

Scenario A:

 1. You have a source tree that has already been configured.

 2. Linus increments the version number in the top-level Makefile
    (i.e. he commits a new release)

 3. You pull it, and run 'make'

 4. syncconfig is invoked because the environment variable,
    KERNELVERSION is updated, but the .config is not updated since
    no config symbol is changed.

 5. The .config file contains a kernel version in the top line:

    # Automatically generated file; DO NOT EDIT.
    # Linux/arm64 4.18.0-rc2 Kernel Configuration

    ... which points to a previous version.

Scenario B:

 1. You have a source tree that has already been configured.

 2. You upgrade the compiler, but it still has the same version number.
    This may happen if you regularly build the latest compiler from
    the source code.

 3. You run 'make'

 4. syncconfig is invoked because the environment variable,
    CC_VERSION_TEXT is updated, but the .config is not updated since
    no config symbol is changed.

 5. The .config file contains the version string of the compiler:

    #
    # Compiler: aarch64-linux-gcc (GCC) 9.0.0 20180628 (experimental)
    #

    ... which carries the information of the old compiler.

If KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE is set, syncconfig is not allowed to update
the .config file.  Otherwise, it is fine to update it regardless of
sym_change_count.

To make Kconfig self-contained, create directories as needed in
