git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild Pull kbuild fixes from Michal Marek: "Here are two fixes I intended to send after v3.6-rc7, but failed to do so. So please pull them for v3.7-rc1 and they will be picked up by stable. The first one fixes gcc -x <language> syntax in various build-time tests, which icecream and possible other gcc wrappers did not understand (and yes, icecream is going to be fixed as well). The second one fixes make tar-pkg so that unpacking the tarball does not replace the /lib -> /usr/lib symlink on recent Fedora releases." * 'rc-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax kbuild: Do not package /boot and /lib in make tar-pkg
2012-10-06kbuild: make: fix if_changed when command contains backslashesSascha Hauer1-1/+1
The call if_changed mechanism does not work when the command contains backslashes. This basically is an issue with lzo and bzip2 compressed kernels. The compressed binaries do not contain the uncompressed image size, so these use size_append to append the size. This results in backslashes in the executed command. With this if_changed always detects a change in the command and rebuilds the compressed image even if nothing has changed. Fix this by escaping backslashes in make-cmd Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Luebbe <jlu@pengutronix.de> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Bernhard Walle <bernhard@bwalle.de> Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-10-03kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntaxJean Delvare1-6/+6
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.

2012-03-24scripts/Kbuild.include: Fix portability problem of "echo -e"Bernhard Walle1-1/+1
"echo -e" is a GNU extension. When cross-compiling the kernel on a BSD-like operating system (Mac OS X in my case), this doesn't work. One could install a GNU version of echo, put that in the $PATH before the system echo and use "/usr/bin/env echo", but the solution with printf is simpler. Since it is no disadvantage on Linux, I hope that gets accepted even if cross-compiling the Linux kernel on another Unix operating system is quite a rare use case.

2011-05-03kbuild: Fix passing -Wno-* options to gcc 4.4+Michal Marek1-0/+5
Starting with 4.4, gcc will happily accept -Wno-<anything> in the cc-option test and complain later when compiling a file that has some other warning. This rather unexpected behavior is intentional as per http://gcc.gnu.org/PR28322, so work around it by testing for support of the opposite option (without the no-). Introduce a new Makefile function cc-disable-warning that does this and update two uses of cc-option in the toplevel Makefile.

2008-12-03kbuild: fix -I option expansion with O=... buildsSam Ravnborg1-1/+3
When adding extra -I options with O=... we could end up in a situation where there were no parameters to -I. So we had a commandline that looked like this: ... -I -Wall ... This had the undesired side effect that gcc assumed "-Wall" was a path to look for include files so this options was effectively ignored. This happens only when we build the generated module.mod.c files as part of the final modules builds and is as such harmless with current kbuild. This bug was exposed when we rearranged the options to gcc. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

2006-09-26[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Work around gcc bug with noreturn functions in unwinderJan Beulich1-2/+2
Current gcc generates calls not jumps to noreturn functions. When that happens the return address can point to the next function, which confuses the unwinder. This patch works around it by marking asynchronous exception frames in contrast normal call frames in the unwind information. Then teach the unwinder to decode this. For normal call frames the unwinder now subtracts one from the address which avoids this problem. The standard libgcc unwinder uses the same trick. It doesn't include adjustment of the printed address (i.e. for the original example, it'd still be kernel_math_error+0 that gets displayed, but the unwinder wouldn't get confused anymore. This only works with binutils 2.6.17+ and some versions of H.J.Lu's 2.6.16 unfortunately because earlier binutils don't support .cfi_signal_frame [AK: added automatic detection of the new binutils and wrote description] Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

2006-07-31[PATCH] vDSO hash-style fixRoland McGrath1-0/+7
The latest toolchains can produce a new ELF section in DSOs and dynamically-linked executables. The new section ".gnu.hash" replaces ".hash", and allows for more efficient runtime symbol lookups by the dynamic linker. The new ld option --hash-style={sysv|gnu|both} controls whether to produce the old ".hash", the new ".gnu.hash", or both. In some new systems such as Fedora Core 6, gcc by default passes --hash-style=gnu to the linker, so that a standard invocation of "gcc -shared" results in producing a DSO with only ".gnu.hash". The new ".gnu.hash" sections need to be dealt with the same way as ".hash" sections in all respects; only the dynamic linker cares about their contents. To work with older dynamic linkers (i.e. preexisting releases of glibc), a binary must have the old ".hash" section. The --hash-style=both option produces binaries that a new dynamic linker can use more efficiently, but an old dynamic linker can still handle. The new section runs afoul of the custom linker scripts used to build vDSO images for the kernel. On ia64, the failure mode for this is a boot-time panic because the vDSO's PT_IA_64_UNWIND segment winds up ill-formed. This patch addresses the problem in two ways. First, it mentions ".gnu.hash" in all the linker scripts alongside ".hash". This produces correct vDSO images with --hash-style=sysv (or old tools), with --hash-style=gnu, or with --hash-style=both. Second, it passes the --hash-style=sysv option when building the vDSO images, so that ".gnu.hash" is not actually produced. This is the most conservative choice for compatibility with any old userland. There is some concern that some ancient glibc builds (though not any known old production system) might choke on --hash-style=both binaries. The optimizations provided by the new style of hash section do not really matter for a DSO with a tiny number of symbols, as the vDSO has. If someone wants to use =gnu or =both for their vDSO builds and worry less about that compatibility, just change the option and the linker script changes will make any choice work fine.
