5471bac748 linux: add blind kconfig option to require kernel modules
Currently, packages that need the kernel to have support for laodable
modules have two ways to require it:

  - either the use the kernel-module infra, which does it automatically,

  - or they do not use it, and they need to require it manually by
    setting the corresponding Makefile variable; however, they must only
    set it when they are actually enabled, which makes for a slightly
    cumbersome and ugly code, like:

        ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_FOO),y)
        LINUX_NEEDS_MODULES = y
        endif

Introduce a new blind Kconfig option that packages can select to signify
they need kernel modules. That Kconfig option is then used to set the
Makefile variable.

It makes it cleaner:

  - code is simpler (one Kconfig line instead of a Makefile if-block,

  - this is handled at the Kconfig level, which is where we usually
    handle such dependencies.

Packages will be updated in follow-up commits.

055e6162bb linux: don't build appended DTB image in place and support multiple images
Currently, the linux.mk logic for appended DTB image does the
appending of the DTB in place, directly at the end of the zImage using
a >> sign. This is incorrect because if you run "make linux-rebuild"
multiple times, you get the DTB appended over and over again to the
image.

Since keeping the 'zImage' or 'uImage' name for the appended DTB image
is not very clear, this commit moves to using the 'zImage.<dtb>' and
'uImage.<dtb>' format. This way, we can clearly distinguish the
original image from the appended one.

In addition, this naming scheme easily allows to generate *multiple*
appended DTB images: from one zImage, you can generate multiple
zImage.<dtb> for several DTBs, and then generate (if requested) the
corresponding uImage.<dtb>.

To achieve this, this commit:

 - Changes the definition of LINUX_APPENDED_DTB to iterate over
   $(KERNEL_DTS_NAME), and generate a zImage.<dtb> image for each of
   them.

 - Changes the addition of LINUX_APPENDED_DTB for appended uImage to
   also iterate over $(KERNEL_DTS_NAME).

 - Provide a different implementation of LINUX_INSTALL_IMAGE which
   installs all the appended DTB images (but not the bare image)

 - Remove the checks that verified that only one DT name is passed
   when appended DTB is used, since we now support generating multiple
   DT images.

Some of the tested configuration:

 - Normal uImage with several DTBs

   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="mvebu_v7"
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_UIMAGE=y
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_UIMAGE_LOADADDR="0x200000"
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DTS_SUPPORT=y
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INTREE_DTS_NAME="armada-xp-matrix armada-xp-gp armada-370-mirabox"

   Contents of output/images/:

   armada-370-mirabox.dtb  armada-xp-gp.dtb  armada-xp-matrix.dtb  uImage

 - Normal zImage with several DTBs

   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="mvebu_v7"

   Contents of output/images:

   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_APPENDED_UIMAGE=y
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_UIMAGE_LOADADDR="0x200000"
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INTREE_DTS_NAME="armada-xp-matrix armada-xp-gp armada-370-mirabox"

   Contents of output/images:

   uImage.armada-370-mirabox  uImage.armada-xp-gp  uImage.armada-xp-matrix

 - Appended zImage with several DTBs:

   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="mvebu_v7"
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_APPENDED_ZIMAGE=y
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INTREE_DTS_NAME="armada-xp-matrix armada-xp-gp armada-370-mirabox"

   Contents of output/images:

   zImage.armada-370-mirabox  zImage.armada-xp-gp  zImage.armada-xp-matrix

In all configurations, the contents of output/target/boot/ was the
same if BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET=y.

24745cb4be linux: only install the DTBs when not in appended DTB mode
When you're using the "appended DTB" mode, the Device Tree blob gets
appended to your kernel image, so there is no point in installing both
the DTB and the kernel image to the images or target directories,
installing the kernel image itself is sufficient.

Therefore, this commit disables the definition of LINUX_INSTALL_DTB
when appended DTB is used.

55b80d3bb9 linux: de-duplicate DTB and Linux image installation
Currently, the LINUX_INSTALL_DTB and LINUX_INSTALL_DTB_TARGET macros
are exactly the same, except for the target directory.

Similarly, LINUX_INSTALL_KERNEL_IMAGE_TO_TARGET and
LINUX_INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS are copying the kernel image, just to a
different place (and with a different strategy).

As a preparation for future additions, this commit de-duplicate this
code:

 - LINUX_INSTALL_DTB becomes a make macro that takes one argument: the
   destination directory.

 - LINUX_INSTALL_IMAGE is a new make macro that also takes on
   argument: the destination directory.

Both macros are used by LINUX_INSTALL_KERNEL_IMAGE_TO_TARGET and
LINUX_INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS to respectively install to the target
directory and the images directory.

Although the current code does enable them in the linux' .config file,

missing from a user-supplied (def)config file, and is missing from some
of the bundled defconfigs as well.

For example, the following defconfig fails to build:

    BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
    BR2_LINUX_KERNEL=y
    BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="i386"
    BR2_PACKAGE_XTABLES_ADDONS=y

90d008ea7a linux: adjust fixup logic for ktap
The ktap package requires some parts of the kernel tracing
infrastructure to be enabled, especially
CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING. However, this option is a blind option in the
kernel, so enabling it in linux.mk has no effect: we need to enable a
non-blind option that selects CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING. We've chosen to
select CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS.

This fixes the build of ktap.

0eba4759fa packages: apply custom patches using *.patch instead of <pkg>-*.patch
Several packages have some logic to apply custom patches that existed
before the BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR mechanism: at91bootstrap,
at91bootstrap3, barebox, uboot and linux. Currently, the logic of
those packages to apply custom patches is to match
<package-name>-*.patch, which is not consistent with what we've done
for patches stored in the package directory, and for patches stored in
BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR: in such cases, we simply apply *.patch.

Therefore, for consistency reasons, this commit changes these packages
to also apply *.patch.

7430a41801 linux: use the package infrastructure to download patches
The linux package has a special handling of patches, with quite a bit
of legacy in it. A problem caused by this special handling is that the
linux package calls directly the DOWNLOAD_WGET macro, which means that
the package infrastructure isn't aware of which patches get
downloaded, and it prevents doing changes inside the package download
infrastructure.

This commit changes the handling of patches in the linux package in
the following way:

 * The LINUX_PATCHES variable is kept as is: it lists all the patches
   mentioned in the Config.in option BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH. This
   option can contain http://, ftp://, https:// URLs, path to local
   files or local directories.

   This variable is *not* used by the generic package infrastructure,
   so it is purely internal to the Linux package.

 * The LINUX_PATCH variable is now filled in with the list of patches
   that should be downloaded. It is derived from LINUX_PATCHES by
   filtering the patches that have http://, ftp:// or https:// in
   their path. Since <pkg>_PATCH is handled by the package
   infrastructure, it means that those patches are now automatically
   downloaded and applied by the package infrastructure.

 * The LINUX_APPLY_PATCHES hook is renamed to
   LINUX_APPLY_LOCAL_PATCHES, because it is now only responsible of
   applying local patches: remote patches are handled by
   LINUX_PATCH. The implementation of the hook is changed to filter
   out the patches that have already taken care of by LINUX_PATCH, so
   that we only iterate through the list of local patches or local
   patch directories.

[Thomas: adjust comment in the code according to Yann comments.]

00daf37c4f linux: avoid unnecessary changes in defconfig for INITRAMFS_SOURCE
When Buildroot is configured to append the root filesystem to the Linux
kernel as initramfs, Buildroot sets the path to the initramfs source
dynamically in the Linux configuration file.

As this path is specified as an absolute path, typically being different
for different users of the same project (e.g. containing a username),
saving the configuration to a version control system (for example using
'make linux-update-defconfig') would result in a difference for this
path at every invocation by a different user.
Although this is technically not an issue, it is confusing that this
generates a difference.

Address this issue by using a not-yet-expanded make variable to specify
the path to the initramfs source. That variable will be expanded by the
Linux build system, which uses it both as a Makefile variable and a
shell variable; thus, it needs to be specified in LINUX_MAKE_ENV (so
it is exported and available in sub-processes of make).  Any saved
configuration file would simply contain the reference to the
not-yet-expanded variable.

As in the Linux build system, the config variables are both read from
make as from a shell script, we cannot use $() syntax as this would be
interpreted as a command invocation by the shell. Instead, use ${}
syntax which is interpreted as variable reference both by the shell as
by make.

[Thomas:
 - Really make the patch work by using $(LINUX_MAKE_ENV) instead of
   $(TARGET_MAKE_ENV). Otherwise, the new BR2_BINARIES_DIR variable is
   not passed at all stages of the build process, which makes the
   build fail when an initramfs is used.]

d4b2b032a0 linux: fix recursively defined variable
When running 'make printvars', the output stops at the time we dump the
Linux related variables, with:

    linux/linux.mk:109: *** Recursive variable `LINUX_TARGET_NAME'
    references itself (eventually).  Stop.

And that's expected, since we have:

    109 LINUX_TARGET_NAME = $(LINUX_IMAGE_NAME)
    [...]
    112 ifeq ($(LINUX_IMAGE_NAME),)
    113 LINUX_IMAGE_NAME = $(LINUX_TARGET_NAME)
    114 endif

Even though they are defined in a way that ensures they are in fact not
recursively defined (the if-block ensures that), 'printvars' does dump
all our variables by evaluating all of them, which in that specific case
implies they are recursively defined.

Fix that by explicitly setting LINUX_IMAGE_NAME in each if-block.

f268f7131b .mk files: bulk aligment and whitespace cleanup of assignments
The Buildroot coding style defines one space around make assignments and
does not align the assignment symbols.

This patch does a bulk fix of offending packages. The package
infrastructures (or more in general assignments to calculated variable
names, like $(2)_FOO) are not touched.

Alignment of line continuation characters (\) is kept as-is.

The sed command used to do this replacement is:
find * -name "*.mk" | xargs sed -i \
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*$#\1 \2#'
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\]\+\)$#\1 \2 \3#'
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\)\s*$#\1 \2 \3#'
    -e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\(\s*\\\)#\1 \2\3#'

Brief explanation of this command:
    ^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)     a regular variable at the beginning of the line
    \([?:+]\?=\)            any assignment character =, :=, ?=, +=
    \([^\\]\+\)             any string not containing a line continuation
    \([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\)     string, optional whitespace, followed by a
                            line continuation character
    \(\s*\\\)               optional whitespace, followed by a line
                            continuation character

Hence, the first subexpression handles empty assignments, the second
handles regular assignments, the third handles regular assignments with
line continuation, and the fourth empty assignments with line
continuation.

This expression was tested on following test text: (initial tab not
included)

	FOO     = spaces before
	FOO     =   spaces before and after
	FOO	= tab before
	FOO	  = tab and spaces before
	FOO =	tab after
	FOO =	   tab and spaces after
	FOO =   	spaces and tab after
	FOO =    \
	FOO = bar \
	FOO = bar space    \
	FOO   =		   \
	GENIMAGE_DEPENDENCIES   = host-pkgconf libconfuse
	FOO     += spaces before
	FOO     ?=   spaces before and after
	FOO     :=
	FOO     =
	FOO	=
	FOO	  =
	FOO =
	   $(MAKE1) CROSS_COMPILE=$(TARGET_CROSS) -C
	AT91BOOTSTRAP3_DEFCONFIG = \
	AXEL_DISABLE_I18N=--i18n=0

After this bulk change, following manual fixups were done:
- fix line continuation alignment in cegui06 and spice (the sed
  expression leaves the number of whitespace between the value and line
  continuation character intact, but the whitespace before that could have
  changed, causing misalignment.
- qt5base was reverted, as this package uses extensive alignment which
  actually makes the code more readable.

Finally, the end result was manually reviewed.

62bbfbaa63 pkg-utils: kconfig helpers: use single iso double quoting
The echo statements in the kconfig helpers are currently using double
quotes. For KCONFIG_SET_OPT this is problematic when the value argument
itself contains a double quote (a string value). In this case, the statement
    echo "$(1)=$(2)" >> $(3)
would become:
    echo "FOO="string value"" >> /some/path/.config
resulting in the string
    FOO=string value
in the config file, rather than the properly quoted
    FOO="string value"

The linux package worked around this by escaping the quote characters, but
a prettier solution is to use single quoting in the helpers (or
alternatively use no quoting at all).
A side effect of this change is that a $variable in the key or value would
no longer be interpreted by the shell, removing any unexpected behavior.

This change is only really necessary for KCONFIG_SET_OPT, but for symmetry
reasons the other helpers are updated too.

[Thomas:
- fixed license to be LGPLv2.1 instead of LGPLv2.1+. Even though the
  debian/copyright file has the "or later" indication, none of the .c
  source files carry it, so I suppose LGPLv2.1 is more correct.

ca80782f45 linux: only depend on host-lzop if needed
There is no reason to always depend on host-lzop, even when the kernel
compression is not LZO.

Since LZO is not the default compression option in the kernel (and there
is not sign that will change in the foreseeable future), it will always
appear in a config file, whether it is a complete config file or it is
only a defconfig.

So, only depend on host-lzop if the LZO compression is enabled in the
kernel config file (either the defconfig or the custom config file).
This includes:
  - kernel compression itself
  - initrd compression
  - initramfs compression

2c66e4429d systemd: bump to v207
This patch bumps systemd to v207 but also declares it as a provider for the
udev virtual package.

Starting with systemd 183, udev has been merged into
systemd. The udev daemon is now installed as /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd.
This means that /dev management using udev is only available if systemd
is chosen as init system.

When configuring systemd, the following options are available:

- activation of systemd-journal-gatewayd, to access the journal via
  HTTP.
- activation of extra features like journal compression and sealing.

Support for uClibc has also been removed because:

- upstream has no interest in supporting uClibc.
- using a shrinked libc brings no advantage, given the size of all the
  programs included in Systemd. So using glibc does not matter.

ed23c92b62 linux: enable initrd/initramfs support when cpio rootfs is chosen
When one enables the generation of a cpio archive of the root
filesystem, the most likely usage is as an initramfs for the
kernel. This commit ensures that the kernel has initramfs support when
the rootfs cpio image format is chosen.

This will for example ensure that if the user selects the ISO9660
filesystem format (which uses a cpio initramfs), the kernel will have
proper support to load and use the initramfs.

It is worth mentionning that when BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS is
enabled, then BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_CPIO is always enabled. That's why we
move the enabling of CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD from the initramfs case to
the cpio case.

1ac04c321f Fix building initramfs kernel with appended dtb
The target for building the kernel with a cpio initramfs is not
calling the append dtb commands, creating a final kernel image
without an appended dtb. Instead it needs to call kernel make on
the intermediate target, then call the append dtb commands
to produce the final image as the primary kernel build target
does.

391c82efa1 linux: Do not force GZIP initramfs compression
Initramfs compression does not make much sense for the architectures
that support compressed kernel images because in this case the data
would be compressed twice. This will eventually result in a bigger
kernel image and time overhead when uncompressing it.
The only reason to use compressed initramfs is to reduce memory
usage when the kernel prepares rootfs, and both the unpacked
filesystem and initramfs.cpio are present in the memory.

Buildroot attempts to force GZIP compression for initramfs,
however it doesn't always work because initramfs compression mode
depends on RAM disk compression supported by the kernel.
Thus, CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_GZIP depends on CONFIG_RD_GZIP.
If CONFIG_RD_GZIP is not set, setting GZIP initramfs compression
will have no effect.

Besides, the kernel also supports other compression methods,
like BZIP2, LZMA, XZ and LZO. Forcing the good old GZIP does not
really make much sense any more.

This removes initramfs compression settings from Buildroot,
so that the default value preset in the kernel config is used,
which is CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE.

If initramfs compression is still needed, it can be set
in the kernel config (using make linux-menuconfig)

Closes #5846

The $(dir ...) function leaves a slash at the end, so that the LINUX_SITE
variable for a custom tarball ends in a slash. The DOWNLOAD macro adds
another slash between SITE and SOURCE, which results in a double slash in
the download URL.

Fix this by stripping off the final slash from the _SITE in all packages that
have a custom tarball.
