This change passes the --build-id when linking the kernel and when linking modules, if ld supports it. This is a new GNU ld option that synthesizes an ELF note section inside the read-only data. The note in this section contains unique identifying bits called the "build ID", which are generated so as to be different for any two linked ELF files that aren't identical. The build ID can be recovered from stripped files, memory dumps, etc. and used to look up the original program built, locate debuginfo or other details or history associated with it. For normal program linking, the compiler passes --build-id to ld by default, but the option is needed when using ld directly as we do. Signed-off-by:

Previously we did do the check on the .o files used to link vmlinux but that failed to find questionable references across the .o files. Create a dedicated vmlinux.o file used only for section mismatch checks that uses the defualt linker script so section does not get renamed. The vmlinux.o may later be used as part of the the final link of vmlinux but for now it is used fo section mismatch only. For a defconfig build this is instant but for an allyesconfig this add two minutes to a full build (that anyways takes ~2 hours). Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit c8fdd247. It turns out the kernel was correct, and the gcc complaint was a gcc bug. The preferred stack boundary is expressed not in bytes, but in the the log2() of the preferred boundary, so "-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2" is in fact exactly what we want, but a gcc that is compiled for x86-64 will consider it an error (because the 64-bit calling sequence says that the stack should be 16-byte aligned) even if we are then using "-m32" to generate 32-bit code.

Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled. On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings: init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

Move tags extracted from the ARCH and include/ sub-trees ahead of those from device drivers, so that the former will appear first during searches. Saves user time during interactive searches for certain patterns that happen to find unwanted matches in driver files. Example in emacs: "M-x find-tag PAGE_SIZE" "M-1 M-." (repeated until definition from asm-i386/page.h appears) Signed-off-by:

The kernel only supports gcc 3.2+ now so it doesn't make sense anymore to explicitely check for options this compiler version already has. This actually fixes a bug. The -mprefered-stack-boundary check never worked because gcc rightly complains CC arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s cc1: -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 is not between 4 and 12 We just never saw the error because of cc-options. I changed it to 4 to actually work. Tested by compiling i386 and x86-64 defconfig with gcc 3.2. Should speed up the build time a tiny bit and improve stack usage on i386 slightly. Signed-off-by:

Tildes as in path as in filenames are handled correctly now: only files, containing tilde '~', are backups, thus are not valid. [KJ]: Definition of `space' was removed, scripts/Kbuild.include has one. That definition was taken right from the GNU make manual, while Kbuild's version is original.

`make help' in the build tree doesn't show the help texts about the `headers_install' and `headers_check' targets because it looks for include/asm-$(ARCH)/Kbuild in the wrong place. Add the missing `$(srctree)' prefixes to fix this. Also move the printing of the default install path for the headers inside the `if/fi', where it belongs. Signed-off-by:
