kbuild: rpm-pkg: rename binkernel.spec to kernel.spec

2023-07-24T15:59:33+00:00

Now kernel.spec and binkernel.spec have the exactly same contents. Use kernel.spec for binrpm-pkg as well. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kbuild: implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS without recursion

2023-06-22T12:21:06+00:00

When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op. Linus stated negative opinions about this slowness in commits: - 5cf0fd591f2e ("Kbuild: disable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS option") - a555bdd0c58c ("Kbuild: enable TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS again, with some guarding") We can do this better now. The final data structures of EXPORT_SYMBOL are generated by the modpost stage, so modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries that are really used by modules. Commit f73edc8951b2 ("kbuild: unify two modpost invocations") is another ground-work to do this in a one-pass algorithm. With the list of modules, modpost sets sym->used if it is used by a module. modpost emits KSYMTAB only for symbols with sym->used==true. BTW, Nicolas explained why the trimming was implemented with recursion: https://lore.kernel.org/all/2o2rpn97-79nq-p7s2-nq5-8p83391473r@syhkavp.arg/ Actually, we never achieved that level of optimization where the chain reaction of trimming comes into play because: - CONFIG_LTO_CLANG cannot remove any unused symbols - CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is enabled only for vmlinux, but not modules If deeper trimming is required, we need to revisit this, but I guess that is unlikely to happen.

kbuild: do not put .scmversion into the source tarball

2023-01-30T04:00:30+00:00

.scmversion is used by (src)rpm-pkg and deb-pkg to carry KERNELRELEASE. In fact, deb-pkg does not rely on it any more because the generated debian/rules specifies KERNELRELEASE from the command line. Do likwise for (src)rpm-pkg, and remove this feature. For the same reason, you do not need to save LOCALVERSION in the spec file. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier

kbuild: rust: move rust/target.json to scripts/

2023-01-22T14:43:33+00:00

scripts/ is a better place to generate files used treewide. With target.json moved to scripts/, you do not need to add target.json to no-clean-files or MRPROPER_FILES. 'make clean' does not visit scripts/, but 'make mrproper' does. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Miguel Ojeda Tested-by: Miguel Ojeda

riscv/purgatory: Omit use of bin2c

2022-08-11T16:32:34+00:00

The .incbin assembler directive is much faster than bin2c + $(CC). Do similar refactoring as in commit 4c0f032d4963 ("s390/purgatory: Omit use of bin2c"). Please note the .quad directive matches to size_t in C (both 8 byte) because the purgatory is compiled only for the 64-bit kernel. (KEXEC_FILE depends on 64BIT).
