         - The GPIO patch "gpiolib: Introduce for_each_requested_gpio_in_range()
           macro" was put in an immutable branch and merged into the pinctrl
           tree as well. We see these changes also here.
      
         - Improved debug output for pins used as GPIO.
      
        New drivers:

           things.
      
         - Renesas SH-PFC has added support for RPC pins, groups, and
           functions to r8a77970 and r8a77980.
      
         - The newere Freescale (now NXP) i.MX8 pin controllers have been
           modularized. This is driven by the Google Android GKI initiative I
           think.
      
         - Open drain support for pins on the Qualcomm IPQ4019.
      
         - The Ingenic driver can handle both edges IRQ detection.

      kbuild: introduce hostprogs-always-y and userprogs-always-y · faabed29
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      To build host programs, you need to add the program names to 'hostprogs'
      to use the necessary build rule, but it is not enough to build them
      because there is no dependency.
      
      There are two types of host programs: built as the prerequisite of
      another (e.g. gen_crc32table in lib/Makefile), or always built when
      Kbuild visits the Makefile (e.g. genksyms in scripts/genksyms/Makefile).
      
      The latter is typical in Makefiles under scripts/, which contains host
      programs globally used during the kernel build. To build them, you need
      to add them to both 'hostprogs' and 'always-y'.
      
      This commit adds hostprogs-always-y as a shorthand.
      
      The same applies to user programs. net/bpfilter/Makefile builds
      bpfilter_umh on demand, hence always-y is unneeded. In contrast,
      programs under samples/ are added to both 'userprogs' and 'always-y'
      so they are always built when Kbuild visits the Makefiles.
      
      userprogs-always-y works as a shorthand.

      kbuild: sort hostprogs before passing it to ifneq · 85569d19
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      The conditional:
      
        ifneq ($(hostprogs),)
      
      ... is evaluated to true if $(hostprogs) does not contain any word but
      whitespace characters.
      
        ifneq ($(strip $(hostprogs)),)
      
      ... is a safe way to avoid interpreting whitespace as a non-empty value,
      but I'd rather want to use the side-effect of $(sort ...) to do the
      equivalent.
      
      $(sort ...) is used in scripts/Makefile.host in order to drop duplication
      in $(hostprogs). It is also useful to strip excessive spaces.
      
      Move $(sort ...) before evaluating the ifneq.

      kbuild: move host .so build rules to scripts/gcc-plugins/Makefile · 42640b13
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      The host shared library rules are currently implemented in
      scripts/Makefile.host, but actually GCC-plugin is the only user of
      them. (The VDSO .so files are built for the target by different
      build rules) Hence, they do not need to be treewide available.
      
      Move all the relevant build rules to scripts/gcc-plugins/Makefile.
      
      I also optimized the build steps so *.so is directly built from .c
      because every upstream plugin is compiled from a single source file.
      
      I am still keeping the multi-file plugin support, which Kees Cook
      mentioned might be needed by out-of-tree plugins.
      (https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/11/1107)
      
      If the plugin, foo.so, is compiled from two files foo.c and foo2.c,
      then you can do like follows:
      
        foo-objs := foo.o foo2.o
      
      Single-file plugins do not need the *-objs notation.

      kbuild: trace functions in subdirectories of lib/ · b16838c6
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      ccflags-remove-$(CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER) += $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)
      
      exists here in sub-directories of lib/ to keep the behavior of
      commit 2464a609 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions").
      
      Since that commit, not only the objects in lib/ but also the ones in
      the sub-directories are excluded from ftrace (although the commit
      description did not explicitly mention this).
      
      However, most of library functions in sub-directories are not so hot.
      Re-add them to ftrace.
      
      Going forward, only the objects right under lib/ will be excluded.

      kbuild: introduce ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y · 15d5761a
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file>.o filters out flags when compiling a particular
      object, but there is no convenient way to do that for every object in
      a directory.
      
      Add ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y to make it easily.
      
      Use ccflags-remove-y to clean up some Makefiles.
      
      The add/remove order works as follows:
      
       [1] KBUILD_CFLAGS specifies compiler flags used globally
      
       [2] ccflags-y adds compiler flags for all objects in the
           current Makefile
      
       [3] ccflags-remove-y removes compiler flags for all objects in the
           current Makefile (New feature)
      
       [4] CFLAGS_<file> adds compiler flags per file.
      
       [5] CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file> removes compiler flags per file.
      
      Having [3] before [4] allows us to remove flags from most (but not all)
      objects in the current Makefile.
      
      For example, kernel/trace/Makefile removes $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)
      from all objects in the directory, then adds it back to
      trace_selftest_dynamic.o and CFLAGS_trace_kprobe_selftest.o
      
      The same applies to lib/livepatch/Makefile.
      
      Please note ccflags-remove-y has no effect to the sub-directories.
      In contrast, the previous notation got rid of compiler flags also from
      all the sub-directories.
      
      The following are not affected because they have no sub-directories:
      
        arch/arm/boot/compressed/
        arch/powerpc/xmon/
        arch/sh/
        kernel/trace/
      
      However, lib/ has several sub-directories.
      
      To keep the behavior, I added ccflags-remove-y to all Makefiles
      in subdirectories of lib/, except the following:
      
        lib/vdso/Makefile        - Kbuild does not descend into this Makefile
        lib/raid/test/Makefile   - This is not used for the kernel build
      
      I think commit 2464a609 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions")
      excluded too much. In the next commit, I will remove ccflags-remove-y
      from the sub-directories of lib/.

      kbuild: do not export LDFLAGS_vmlinux · 3ec8a5b3
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      When you clean the build tree for ARCH=arm, you may see the following
      error message from 'nm' command:
      
      $ make -j24 ARCH=arm clean
        CLEAN   arch/arm/crypto
        CLEAN   arch/arm/kernel
        CLEAN   arch/arm/mach-at91
        CLEAN   arch/arm/mach-omap2
        CLEAN   arch/arm/vdso
        CLEAN   certs
        CLEAN   lib
        CLEAN   usr
        CLEAN   net/wireless
        CLEAN   drivers/firmware/efi/libstub
      nm: 'arch/arm/boot/compressed/../../../../vmlinux': No such file
      /bin/sh: 1: arithmetic expression: expecting primary: " "
        CLEAN   arch/arm/boot/compressed
        CLEAN   drivers/scsi
        CLEAN   drivers/tty/vt
        CLEAN   arch/arm/boot
        CLEAN   vmlinux.symvers modules.builtin modules.builtin.modinfo
      
      Even if you rerun the same command, the error message will not be
      shown despite vmlinux is already gone.
      
      To reproduce it, the parallel option -j is needed. Single thread
      cleaning always executes 'archclean', 'vmlinuxclean' in this order,
      so vmlinux still exists when arch/arm/boot/compressed/ is cleaned.
      
      Looking at arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile does not help understand
      the reason of the error message. Both KBSS_SZ and LDFLAGS_vmlinux are
      assigned with '=' operator, hence, they are not expanded unless used.
      Obviously, 'make clean' does not use them.
      
      In fact, the root cause exists in the top Makefile:
      
        export LDFLAGS_vmlinux
      
      Since LDFLAGS_vmlinux is an exported variable, LDFLAGS_vmlinux in
      arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile is expanded when scripts/Makefile.clean
      has a command to execute. This is why the error message shows up only
      when there exist build artifacts in arch/arm/boot/compressed/.
      
      Adding 'unexport LDFLAGS_vmlinux' to arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
      will fix it as far as ARCH=arm is concerned, but I think the proper fix
      is to get rid of 'export LDFLAGS_vmlinux' from the top Makefile.
      
      LDFLAGS_vmlinux in the top Makefile contains linker flags for the top
      vmlinux. LDFLAGS_vmlinux in arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile is for
      arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux. They just happen to have the same
      variable name, but are used for different purposes. Stop shadowing
      LDFLAGS_vmlinux.
      
      This commit passes LDFLAGS_vmlinux to scripts/link-vmlinux.sh via a
      command line parameter instead of via an environment variable. LD and
      KBUILD_LDFLAGS are exported, but I did the same for consistency. Anyway,
      they must be included in cmd_link-vmlinux to allow if_changed to detect
      the changes in LD or KBUILD_LDFLAGS.
      
      The following Makefiles are not affected:
      
        arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile
        arch/h8300/boot/compressed/Makefile
        arch/nios2/boot/compressed/Makefile
        arch/parisc/boot/compressed/Makefile
        arch/s390/boot/compressed/Makefile
        arch/sh/boot/compressed/Makefile
        arch/sh/boot/romimage/Makefile
        arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile
      
      They use ':=' or '=' to clear the LDFLAGS_vmlinux inherited from the
      top Makefile.
      
      We need to take a closer look at the impact to unicore32 and xtensa.
      
      arch/unicore32/boot/compressed/Makefile only uses '+=' operator for
      LDFLAGS_vmlinux. So, the decompressor previously inherited the linker
      flags from the top Makefile.
      
      However, commit 70fac51f ("unicore32 additional architecture files:
      boot process") was merged before commit 1f2bfbd0 ("kbuild: link of
      vmlinux moved to a script"). So, I rather consider this is a bug fix of
      1f2bfbd0.
      
      arch/xtensa/boot/boot-elf/Makefile is also affected, but this is also
      considered a fix for the same reason. It did not inherit LDFLAGS_vmlinux
      when commit 4bedea94 ("[PATCH] xtensa: Architecture support for
      Tensilica Xtensa Part 2") was merged. I deleted $(LDFLAGS_vmlinux),
      which is now empty.

      kbuild: always create directories of targets · cc8a51ca
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      Currently, the directories of objects are automatically created
      only for O= builds.
      
      It should not hurt to cater to this for in-tree builds too.
