f7cd72b3d4 linux: add BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_NEEDS_HOST_LIBELF
Some Linux kernel configuration options (such as CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC)
require building a host program that needs libelf.

Users who have libelf installed on their system won't see a problem,
but users who don't have libelf installed will get a build
failure. Therefore, this commit adds an option that allows a user to
indicate that his Linux kernel configuration requires libelf. When
this option is enabled, we add host-elfutils to the dependencies of
the linux package (host-elfutils provides the libelf library).

dde090c299 linux: fix passing of host CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
We were passing HOSTCFLAGS="$(HOSTCFLAGS)" to Linux. However:

 - HOSTCFLAGS in Buildroot doesn't exist, and is empty, so this
   assignment never did anything. The name of the variable in
   Buildroot in HOST_CFLAGS.

 - HOSTCFLAGS in Linux isn't used everywhere, and passing it overrides
   the default HOSTCFLAGS value defined in the main Linux kernel
   Makefile.

In addition, there is no way to pass additional host LDFLAGS in the
Linux kernel build system.

Therefore, we simply shoehorn our HOST_CFLAGS and HOST_LDFLAGS while
passing HOSTCC to the Linux kernel build system. This has been tested
to work fine with host OpenSSL and host libelf only available in
$(HOST_DIR).

cef77a6cf5 linux: meddle not in the internals of filesystems
Currently, the rule to rebuild the Linux kernel with an initramfs
directly depends on the path of the file of the intermediate cpio image.

This is inherently "bad" from a purity point of view; linux.mk should
not have to delve into the fs internals.

Rather, make it directly depend on the "frontal" rule that generates the
cpio image.

Drop the comment for linux-rebuild-with-initramfs, it was misleading
(talking about generating "the initramfs list of files", which is not
what was done, since we use a cpio as source of initramfs, not a list of
files).

712f81fb3c linux: Deselect all unconfigured compression options
The LINUX_KCONFIG_FIXUP_CMDS are meant to deselect any compression
option that are not selected in the buildroot configuration. But it only
deselects the last one in the list instead of all of them because it
overwrites the LINUX_COMPRESSION_OPT_ variable instead of appending to
it. Only the last option set to that variable gets deselected.

This produces the warning:

.config:2216:warning: override: KERNEL_GZIP changes choice state

is emitted when buildroot runs olddefconfig when buildroot configures a
kernel with a custom config that has a different kernel compression
option set to what is configured in buildroot.

Accumulate all the deselected compression options instead of overwriting
them to ensure all non-selected options get deselected..

easier to always exclude except in the single case where we do have a

ee995b1819 linux: select BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_UBOOT_TOOLS instead of BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_UBOOT_IMAGE
A long time ago, the blind config option BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_UBOOT_IMAGE
was introduced to be able to trigger the linux -> host-uboot-tools
dependency. Back in those days, there was no user-configurable
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_UBOOT_TOOLS.

Now, however, it is possible to select a custom kernel image name that
needs uboot-tools, and manually enable BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_UBOOT_TOOLS. In
this case, however, the linux -> host-uboot-tools is missed and the
build is not reproducible. An example of such a situation is the
upcoming CI40 defconfig.

As a solution, remove BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_UBOOT_IMAGE entirely. Instead,
just select BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_UBOOT_TOOLS and add the dependency if it
is selected.

Note that this may introduce a redundant dependency in case the user
selected BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_UBOOT_TOOLS for some other reason (e.g. to
be able to generate a U-Boot environment to include in the image, while
the kernel is built as a zImage). However, the redundant dependency
shouldn't hurt much.

Fix kernel reproducible build if a non-C locale is used on the host

When building the Linux kernel, scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh does 'date

KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP to "$(shell date -d @$(SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH))".

For example, if LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 is defined in the host system, it does
not work:

- LC_ALL=C date -d"$(LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 date)" : error

20b1446669 linux/tools: make it a real, separate package
The kernel source tree also contains the sources for various userland
tools, of which cpupower, perf or selftests.

Currently, we have support for building those tools as part of the
kernel build procedure. This looked the correct thing to do so far,
because, well, they *are* part of the kernel source tree and some
really have to be the same version as the kernel that will run.

However, this is causing quite a non-trivial-to-break circular
dependency in some configurations. For example, this defconfig fails to
build (similar to the one reported by Paul):

    BR2_arm=y
    BR2_cortex_a7=y
    BR2_ARM_FPU_NEON_VFPV4=y
    BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
    BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD=y
    BR2_LINUX_KERNEL=y
    BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_GIT=y
    BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_URL="https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git"
    BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_VERSION="26f3b72a9c049be10e6af196252283e1f6ab9d1f"
    BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="bcm2709"
    BR2_PACKAGE_LINUX_TOOLS_CPUPOWER=y
    BR2_PACKAGE_CRYPTODEV=y
    BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSL=y
    BR2_PACKAGE_LIBCURL=y

This causes a circular dependency, as explained by Thomas:

 - When libcurl is enabled, systemd depends on it

 - When OpenSSL is enabled, obviously, will use it for SSL support

 - When cryptodev-linux is enabled, OpenSSL will depend on it to use
   crypto accelerators supported in the kernel via cryptodev-linux.

 - cryptodev-linux being a kernel module, it depends on linux

 - linux by itself (the kernel) does not depend on pciutils, but the
   linux tool "cpupower" (managed in linux-tool-cpupower) depends on
   pciutils

 - pciutils depends on udev when available

 - udev is provided by systemd.

And indeed, during the build, we can see that make warns (it's only
reported as a *warning*, not as an actual error):

    [...]
    make[1]: Circular /home/ymorin/dev/buildroot/O/build/openssl-1.0.2h/.stamp_configured
    <- cryptodev-linux dependency dropped.
    >>> openssl 1.0.2h Downloading
    [...]

So the build fails later on, when openssl is actually built:

    eng_cryptodev.c:57:31: fatal error: crypto/cryptodev.h: No such file or directory
    compilation terminated.
    <builtin>: recipe for target 'eng_cryptodev.o' failed

Furthermore, graph-depends also detects the circular dependency, but
treats it as a hard-error:

    Recursion detected for  : cryptodev-linux
    which is a dependency of: openssl
    which is a dependency of: libcurl
    which is a dependency of: systemd
    which is a dependency of: udev
    which is a dependency of: pciutils
    which is a dependency of: linux
    which is a dependency of: cryptodev-linux
    Makefile:738: recipe for target 'graph-depends' failed

Of course, there is no way to break the loop without losing
functionality in either one of the involved packages *and* keep
our infrastructure and packages as-is.

The only solution is to break the loop at the linux-tools level, by
moving them away into their own package, so that the linux package will
no longer have the opportunity to depend on another package via a
dependency of one the tools.

All three linux tools are thus moved away to their own package.

The package infrastructure only knows of three types of packages: those
in package/ , in boot/ , in toolchain/ and the one in linux/ . So we
create that new linux-tools package in package/ so that we don't have to
fiddle with yet another special case in the infra. Still, we want its
configure options to appear in the kernel's sub-menu.

So, we make it a prompt-less package, with only the tools visible as
options of that package, but without the usual dependency on their
master symbol; they only depend on the Linux kernel.

Furthermore, because the kernel is such a huge pile of code, we would
not be very happy to extract it a second time just for the sake of a few
tools. We can't extract only the tools/ sub-directory from the kernel
source either, because some tools have hard-coded path to includes from
the kernel (arch and stuff).

Instead, we just use the linux source tree as our own build tree, and
ensure the linux tree is extracted and patched before linux-tools is
configured and built.

10c4d27aef linux: use INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 to strip modules
We used to do a special handling of Linux kernel modules when stripping
target binaries because there's some special precious data in modules
that we must keep for them to properly operate. This is for example true
for stack unwinding data etc.

It turned out there're cases when our existing "strip --strip-unneeded"
doesn't work well. For example this removes .debug_frame section used by
Linux on ARC for stack unwinding, refer to [1] and [2] for more details.

Now Linux kernel may strip modules as a part of "modules_install" target
if INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 is passed in command line. And so we'll do
allowing kernel decide how to strip modules in the best way.

Still note as of today Linux kernel strips modules uniformly for all
arches with "strip" command, so this commit alone doesn't solve
mentioned problem but it opens a possibility to add later a patch to the
kernel which will strip modules for ARC differently - and that's our
plan for mainline kernel.

e782cd5b1b Revert "Added local directory as source of kernel code"
This reverts commit 73da2ff6f7.

The reason for adding support for a local location was to be able to do
development on the Linux kernel source tree on a local directory rather
than have to clone it for every build.

We already have a mechanism for that, it's called override-srcdir. It's
been available since September 2011, more than a year before this patch
was committed.

Otherwise, we're going to be adding support for local sources in other
packages. First was U-Boot as submitted by Adam. But what next? We can't
have such support for all packages, especially since override-srcdir
does the job.

Besides, using a local source tree makes the build non-reproducible, so
we don't really want to have this in a .config (or defconfig).

We only handle the boolean option in legacy, as there is nothing we can
do with the directory path.

 1. Passing a defconfig name (for example "multi_v7"), to which we append
    "_defconfig" to run "make multi_v7_defconfig".

 2. Passing a path to a custom configuration file.

Unfortunately, those two possibilities do not allow to configure the
kernel when you want to use the default configuration built into the
kernel for a given architecture. For example, on ARM64, there is a
single defconfig simply called "defconfig", which you can load by
running "make defconfig".

Using the mechanism (1) above doesn't work because we append
"_defconfig" automatically.

One solution would be to change (1) and require the user to enter the
full defconfig named (i.e "multi_v7_defconfig" instead of "multi_v7"),
but we would break all existing Buildroot configurations.

So instead, we add a third option, which simply tells Buildroot to use
the default configuration for the selected architecture. In this case,
Buildroot will configure the kernel by running "make defconfig".

690ed04845 linux: provide symlink dtc->linux-dtc is there is no dtc yet
Commit ab74e09eb4 renamed the dtc host tool
provided by linux to linux-dtc to avoid clashes with the dtc host tool
provided by host-dtc.

However, external scripting may well rely on the existence of a device tree
compiler as $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/dtc, regardless of its source. Changing
these external scripts to use linux-dtc means that the scripts need to be
aware of the buildroot release they are working with, which is not very
nice.

Add a symlink dtc->linux-dtc when no $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/dtc is present.
When host-dtc is not enabled, the end result will be dtc and
linux-dtc representing the same thing.
When host-dtc is enabled, either it is build before linux and no symlink
is created at any time, or it is build after linux, and the 'install'
command in host-dtc will overwrite the symlink with a proper dtc. In both
cases, the end result will be dtc and linux-dtc representing a different
thing.

b1f0212af6 linux: properly install all images in the initramfs case
The target "$(LINUX_DIR)/.stamp_initramfs_rebuilt" uses its own
'cp' command, instead of LINUX_INSTALL_IMAGE/LINUX_INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS
provided by (or updated with) commit 055e6162bb ("linux: don't build
appended DTB image in place and support multiple images") and thus is
not operating properly when APPENDED_DTB is used.

Indeed, it copies a single image, and does not copy the one with the DTB
appended.

This patch replaces the 'cp' command with LINUX_INSTALL_IMAGE which
handles APPENDED_DTB.

d6a5d71aba linux: add conditional patch for timeconst.pl
Kernels older than 3.9 (not counting stable releases) used the
timeconst.pl perl script for their build process.
The problem with this script is that it used deprecated perl features,
namely defined(@array) which was removed for the perl 5.22 release,
causing build failure of older kernels on newer distributions.

To fix this instead of going the hard way (moving to the new
timeconst.bc script) use the easy way by patching timeconst.pl with an
upstream patch used for stable releases.

First try a dry-run on the patch to see if it applies, if it does then
call a proper APPLY_PATCHES to it.

Tested against an arbitrary 2.6.30 kernel (applies and builds), against
4.4.1 for a missing timeconst.pl (does not apply since it's missing) and
3.8.13 (does not apply since it's fixed already).

Known broken distributions: fedora 23, debian testing (stretch) and unstable
(sid).

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"
   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_ZIMAGE=y
   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  zImage

 - Appended uImage with several DTBs:

   BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG="mvebu_v7"
   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.
