      kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax · b1e0d8b7
      Jean Delvare 提交于
      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.

      posix_types.h: Cleanup stale __NFDBITS and related definitions · 8ded2bbc
      Josh Boyer 提交于
      Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in
      FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1).  This uncovered an issue with the
      kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include
      <linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>.  A build failure would
      be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
      flags to gcc.
      
      It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc
      definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely.  The current in-kernel
      uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no
      uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines.  Given that, we'll
      continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda
      ("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused
      macros.
      
      Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to
      nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.
