      kbuild: fix build with O=.. · 8c7f75d3
      Sam Ravnborg authored
      
      .kernelrelease was saved in same directory as kernel source also
      with make O=...
      Make sure we kick in the normal logic to shift to the output directory
      when we build .kernelrelease after executing *config.

      kbuild: fix 'make all install_modules install' · df9df036
      Sam Ravnborg authored
      
      The command 'make all modules_install install' would fail
      in a virgin tree - pointing at a non-existing directory under
      /lib/modules/xxx
      
      KERNELRELEASE is part of MODLIB and we need to create .kernelrelease
      before we can properly evaluate KERNELRELEASE,
      Changing MODLIB to the recursively expanded flavor let it pick up
      the correct KERNELRELEASE value.

      kbuild: create .kernelrelease at *config step · 2244cbd8
      Sam Ravnborg authored
      
      To enable 'make kernelrelease' earlier now create .kernelrelease when
      one of the *config targets are used.
      Also introduce KERNELVERSION - only user is kconfig.
      KERNELVERSION was needed to display kernel version in menuconfig -
      KERNELRELEASE is not valid until configuration has completed.
      kconfig files modified to use KERNELVERSION.

      kbuild: re-export VERSION, PATCHLEVEL, SUBLEVEL · 4f0210b9
      Sam Ravnborg authored
      
      Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sgi.com> pointed out that it is usefull to have
      access to VERSION, PATCHLEVEL, SUBLEVEL in external modules, and gooling
      a litte confirmed this.
      So re-export them.
      Usage within the kernel is still discouraged but possible.

      kbuild: KERNELRELEASE is only re-defined when buiding the kernel · cb58455c
      Sam Ravnborg authored
      
      To avoid running setlocalversion as root no longer (re-)define
      KERNELRELEASE for each run. With this patch KERNELRELEASE is
      only re-read when we do an actual kernel build.
      Rationale behind this is "do as little as possible" when executing
      make install - as root!
      
      A new file named .kernelrelease is strored in the root of the kernel
      tree containing the actual version string.
      So when we use do a kernel build the .kernelrelease file will be updated.
      But in all other situations it is left as-is.
      
      To make it more visible the kernel now prints out the version being build.
      Sample:
      Building kernel 2.6.15-g63b794bf-dirty
      ...
      ...
      
      The patch also un-exports VERSION PATCHLEVEL SUBLEVEL EXTRAVERSION LOCALVERSION
      since all users of these are anyway broken - and none is left in the
      tree.

      Hey, for no other reason than the fact that I'll be off-line for a
      week.
      
      Of course, I could force everybody to just use git (and when I'm emperor
      of the world, don't think I won't!), but it seems some people want to
      just test official releases.  Even if they are just -rc's.
      
      By the time I'm back, Andrew will have fixed all my bugs, and I'll
      release it as 2.6.15 and take all the credit.
      
      Mwahahahaaa

      [PATCH] kbuild: build breaks after -imacros was introduced · e623a3b8
      Zachary Amsden authored
      
      I have to revert the recent addition of -imacros to the Makefile to get my
      tool chain to build.  Without the change, below, I get:
      
      Note that this looks entirely like a toolchain bug.  Here is the offending command:
      
      [pid 12163] execve("/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0", ["/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0", "-lang-asm", "-nostdinc", "-Iinclude", "-Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default", "-D__GNUC__=3", "-D__GNUC_MINOR__=2", "-D__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__=2", "-D__GXX_ABI_VERSION=102", "-D__ELF__", "-Dunix", "-D__gnu_linux__", "-Dlinux", "-D__ELF__", "-D__unix__", "-D__gnu_linux__", "-D__linux__", "-D__unix", "-D__linux", "-Asystem=posix", "-D__NO_INLINE__", "-D__STDC_HOSTED__=1", "-Acpu=i386", "-Amachine=i386", "-Di386", "-D__i386", "-D__i386__", "-D__tune_i386__", "-D__KERNEL__", "-D__ASSEMBLY__", "-isystem", "/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/include", "-imacros", "include/linux/autoconf.h", "-MD", "arch/i386/kernel/.entry.o.d", "arch/i386/kernel/entry.S", "-o", "/tmp/ccOlsFJR.s"]
      
      Which should execute properly, I think.  But it does not:
      
      zach-dev:linux-2.6.14-zach-work $ make
        CHK     include/linux/version.h
        CHK     include/linux/compile.h
        CHK     usr/initramfs_list
        AS      arch/i386/kernel/entry.o
      /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0: output filename specified twice
      make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/entry.o] Error 1
      make: *** [arch/i386/kernel] Error 2
      
      gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)
      
      Deprecating the -imacros fixes the build for me.  It does not appear to be a
      simple argument overflow problem in trapcpp0, since deprecating all the defines
      reproduces the problem as well.  Also, switching -imacros to -include fixes the
      problem.
