scripts/nsdeps is written to take care of only in-tree modules. Perhaps, this is not a bug, but just a design. At least, Documentation/core-api/symbol-namespaces.rst focuses on in-tree modules. Having said that, some people already tried nsdeps for external modules. So, it would be nice to support it.

The modpost, with the -d option given, generates per-module .ns_deps files. Kbuild generates per-module .mod files to carry module information. This is convenient because Make handles multiple jobs in parallel when the -j option is given. On the other hand, the modpost always runs as a single thread. I do not see a strong reason to produce separate .ns_deps files. This commit changes the modpost to generate just one file, modules.nsdeps, each line of which has the following format: <module_name>: <list of missing namespaces> Please note it contains *missing* namespaces instead of required ones. So, modules.nsdeps is empty if the namespace dependency is all good. This will work more efficiently because spatch will no longer process already imported namespaces. I removed the '(if needed)' from the nsdeps log since spatch is invoked only when needed. This also solves the stale .ns_deps problem reported by Jessica Yu: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/28/467Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Tested-by: Jessica Yu <jeyu@kernel.org> Acked-by: Jessica Yu <jeyu@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Matthias Maennich <maennich@google.com> Tested-by: Matthias Maennich <maennich@google.com>

'make nsdeps' invokes the modpost three times at most; before linking vmlinux, before building modules, and finally for generating .ns_deps files. Running the modpost again and again is not efficient. The last two can be unified. When the -d option is given, the modpost still does the usual job, and in addition, generates .ns_deps files.

make listnewconfig will list the individual options that need to be set. This is useful but there's no easy way to get the help text associated with the options at the same time. Introduce a new targe 'make helpnewconfig' which lists the full help text of all the new options as well. This makes it easier to automatically generate changes that are easy for humans to review. This command also adds markers between each option for easier parsing.

There are 6 defconfigs with names longer than 24 characters, breaking alignment in "make help". The "winner" is "ecovec24-romimage_defconfig", counting in at 27 characters. Extend the defconfig field size to 27 to restore alignment. Don't use a larger value, to not encourage people to create even longer defconfig names.

For EXPORT_SYMBOL from C files, <linux/export.h> defines __ksymtab_* as local symbols. For EXPORT_SYMBOL from assembly, in contrast, <asm-generic/export.h> produces globally-visible __ksymtab_* symbols due to this .globl directive. I do not know why this must be global.

'pushd' ... 'popd' is the last bash-specific code in this script. One way to avoid it is to run the code in a sub-shell. With that addressed, you can run this script with sh.

This script copies headers by the cpio command twice; first from srctree, and then from objtree. However, when we building in-tree, we know the srctree and the objtree are the same. That is, all the headers copied by the first cpio are overwritten by the second one. Skip the first cpio when we are building in-tree. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

This script computes md5sum of headers in srctree and in objtree. However, when we are building in-tree, we know the srctree and the objtree are the same. That is, we end up with the same computation twice. In fact, the first two lines of kernel/kheaders.md5 are always the same for in-tree builds. Unify the two md5sum calculations. For in-tree builds ($building_out_of_srctree is empty), we check only two directories, "include", and "arch/$SRCARCH/include". For out-of-tree builds ($building_out_of_srctree is 1), we check 4 directories, "$srctree/include", "$srctree/arch/$SRCARCH/include", "include", and "arch/$SRCARCH/include" since we know they are all different.

The 'head' and 'tail' commands can take a file path directly. So, you do not need to run 'cat'. cat kernel/kheaders.md5 | head -1 ... is equivalent to: head -1 kernel/kheaders.md5 and the latter saves forking one process. While I was here, I replaced 'head -1' with 'head -n 1'. I also replaced '==' with '=' since we do not have a good reason to use the bashism.

Since commit 040fcc81 ("kbuild: improved modversioning support for external modules"), the external module build reads Module.symvers in the directory of the module itself, then dumps symbols back into it. It accumulates stale symbols in the file when you build an external module incrementally. The idea behind it was, as the commit log explained, you can copy Modules.symvers from one module to another when you need to pass symbol information between two modules. However, the manual copy of the file sounds questionable to me, and containing stale symbols is a downside. Some time later, commit 0d96fb20 ("kbuild: Add new Kbuild variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS") introduced a saner approach. So, this commit removes the former one. Going forward, the external module build dumps symbols into Module.symvers to be carried via KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS, but never reads it automatically. With the -I option removed, there is no one to set the external_module flag unless KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS is passed. Now the -i option does it instead.

When building external modules, $(objtree)/Module.symvers is scanned for symbol information of vmlinux and in-tree modules. Additionally, vmlinux is parsed if it exists in $(objtree)/. This is totally redundant since all the necessary information is contained in $(objtree)/Module.symvers. Do not parse vmlinux at all for external module builds. This makes sense because vmlinux is deleted by 'make clean'. 'make clean' leaves all the build artifacts for building external modules. vmlinux is unneeded for that.

The comment line "When building external modules ..." explains the same thing as "Include the module's Makefile ..." a few lines below. The comment "they may be used when building the .mod.c file" is no longer true; .mod.c file is compiled in scripts/Makefile.modfinal since commit 9b9a3f20 ("kbuild: split final module linking out into Makefile.modfinal"). I still keep the code in case $(obj) or $(src) is used in the external module Makefile. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

util.c exists both in scripts/kconfig/ and scripts/kconfig/lxdialog. Prior to commit 54b8ae66 ("kbuild: change *FLAGS_<basetarget>.o to take the path relative to $(obj)"), Kbuild could not pass different flags to source files with the same basename. Now that this issue was solved, you can split util.c out of parser.y and compile them independently of each other. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

The staging driver addition is the vboxsf filesystem, which is the VirtualBox guest shared folder code. Hans has been trying to get filesystem reviewers to review the code for many months now, and Christoph finally said to just merge it in staging now as it is stand-alone and the filesystem people can review it easier over time that way. I know it's late for this big of an addition, but it is stand-alone. The code has been in linux-next for a while, long enough to pick up a few tiny fixes for it already so people are looking at it.
