kbuild: update config_data.gz only when the content of .config is changed commit 46b41d5dd8019b264717978c39c43313a524d033 upstream. If the timestamp of the .config file is updated, config_data.gz is regenerated, then vmlinux is re-linked. This occurs even if the content of the .config has not changed at all. This issue was mitigated by commit 67424f61f813 ("kconfig: do not write .config if the content is the same"); Kconfig does not update the .config when it ends up with the identical configuration. The issue is remaining when the .config is created by _defconfig with some config fragment(s) applied on top. This is typical for powerpc and mips, where several _defconfig targets are constructed by using merge_config.sh. One workaround is to have the copy of the .config. The filechk rule updates the copy, kernel/config_data, by checking the content instead of the timestamp. With this commit, the second run with the same configuration avoids the needless rebuilds. $ make ARCH=mips defconfig all [ snip ] $ make ARCH=mips defconfig all *** Default configuration is based on target '32r2el_defconfig' Using ./arch/mips/configs/generic_defconfig as base Merging arch/mips/configs/generic/32r2.config Merging arch/mips/configs/generic/el.config Merging ./arch/mips/configs/generic/board-boston.config Merging ./arch/mips/configs/generic/board-ni169445.config Merging ./arch/mips/configs/generic/board-ocelot.config Merging ./arch/mips/configs/generic/board-ranchu.config Merging ./arch/mips/configs/generic/board-sead-3.config Merging ./arch/mips/configs/generic/board-xilfpga.config # # configuration written to .config # SYNC include/config/auto.conf CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CALL scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh CHK include/generated/compile.h CHK include/generated/autoksyms.h Reported-by: Elliot Berman <eberman@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> 2021-04-25 13:24:07 +07:00			`/config_data`
Provide in-kernel headers to make extending kernel easier Introduce in-kernel headers which are made available as an archive through proc (/proc/kheaders.tar.xz file). This archive makes it possible to run eBPF and other tracing programs that need to extend the kernel for tracing purposes without any dependency on the file system having headers. A github PR is sent for the corresponding BCC patch at: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/pull/2312 On Android and embedded systems, it is common to switch kernels but not have kernel headers available on the file system. Further once a different kernel is booted, any headers stored on the file system will no longer be useful. This is an issue even well known to distros. By storing the headers as a compressed archive within the kernel, we can avoid these issues that have been a hindrance for a long time. The best way to use this feature is by building it in. Several users have a need for this, when they switch debug kernels, they do not want to update the filesystem or worry about it where to store the headers on it. However, the feature is also buildable as a module in case the user desires it not being part of the kernel image. This makes it possible to load and unload the headers from memory on demand. A tracing program can load the module, do its operations, and then unload the module to save kernel memory. The total memory needed is 3.3MB. By having the archive available at a fixed location independent of filesystem dependencies and conventions, all debugging tools can directly refer to the fixed location for the archive, without concerning with where the headers on a typical filesystem which significantly simplifies tooling that needs kernel headers. The code to read the headers is based on /proc/config.gz code and uses the same technique to embed the headers. Other approaches were discussed such as having an in-memory mountable filesystem, but that has drawbacks such as requiring an in-kernel xz decompressor which we don't have today, and requiring usage of 42 MB of kernel memory to host the decompressed headers at anytime. Also this approach is simpler than such approaches.
