e82c4bb8b4 Kbuild: Disable var tracking with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED
Newer gcc enables the var-tracking pass with -g to keep track which
registers contain which variables. This is one of the slower passes in gcc.

With reduced debug info (aimed at objdump -S, but not using a full debugger)
we don't need this fine grained tracking. But it was still enabled
because -g was enabled. Disable it explicitely for DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED.

On my 8T workstation this gives me about a 12 second gain in building
a reasonable kernel config (2min16 vs 2min28) with DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED.
With full DEBUG_INFO it takes 2min46

The actual improvement in user time taken by the compiler is much higher
(all CPU combined user time 15min5s vs 16m30 before)
but the usual amdahl bottleneck on the linker prevents more speedup.
It still saves some more energy and keeps cycles for other things.

8937e89718 depmod: pass -P $CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
On architectures which have symbol prefixes, depmod emits lots of
warnings like this:

WARNING: $module.ko needs unknown symbol $symbol

This is because depmod isn't being passed the -P <symbol_prefix>
arguments to specify the symbol prefix to ignore. This option is
included since the 3.13 release of module-init-tools.

Update scripts/depmod.sh to take extra arguments for the symbol prefix
(required but may be empty), and update the main Makefile to always pass
"$(CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX)" to scripts/depmod.sh.

If the provided symbol prefix is non-empty, scripts/depmod.sh checks if
depmod --version reports module-init-tools with a version number < 3.13
otherwise it appends -P $SYMBOL_PREFIX to the depmod command line.

d9d8d7ed49 MODSIGN: Add option to not sign modules during modules_install
To allow the builder to sign only a subset of modules, or to sign the
modules using a key that is not available on the build machine, add
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL. If this option is unset, no modules will be
signed during build. The default is 'y', to preserve the current
behavior.

f1b99392ca arm64: makefile: fix uname munging when setting ARCH on native machine
By popular demand, arch/aarch64 is now known as arch/arm64. However,
uname -m (and indeed the GNU triplet) still use aarch64 as the machine
string.

This patch fixes native builds of both the kernel and perf tools by
updating the relevant Makefiles to munge the output of uname -m and
set the ARCH variable appropriately.

ffee0de411 x86: Default to ARCH=x86 to avoid overriding CONFIG_64BIT
It is easy to waste a bunch of time when one takes a 32-bit .config
from a test machine and try to build it on a faster 64-bit system, and
its existing setting of CONFIG_64BIT=n gets *changed* to match the
build host.  Similarly, if one has an existing build tree it is easy
to trash an entire build tree that way.

This is because the default setting for $ARCH when discovered from
'uname' is one of the legacy pre-x86-merge values (i386 or x86_64),
which effectively force the setting of CONFIG_64BIT to match. We should
default to ARCH=x86 instead, finally completing the merge that we
started so long ago.

This patch preserves the behaviour of the legacy ARCH settings for commands
such as:

   make ARCH=x86_64 randconfig
   make ARCH=i386 randconfig

... since making the value of CONFIG_64BIT actually random in that situation
is not desirable.

In time, perhaps we can retire this legacy use of the old ARCH= values.
We already have a way to override values for *any* config option, using
$KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG, so it could be argued that we don't necessarily need
to keep ARCH={i386,x86_64} around as a special case just for overriding
CONFIG_64BIT.

We'd probably at least want to add a way to override config options from
the command line ('make CONFIG_FOO=y oldconfig') before we talk about doing
that though.

bf35182ffc tools: Honour the O= flag when tool build called from a higher Makefile
Honour the O= flag that was passed to a higher level Makefile and then passed
down as part of a tool build.

To make this work, the top-level Makefile passes the original O= flag and
subdir=tools to the tools/Makefile, and that in turn passes
subdir=$(O)/$(subdir)/foodir when building tool foo in directory
$(O)/$(subdir)/foodir (where the intervening slashes aren't added if an
element is missing).

For example, take perf.  This is found in tools/perf/.  Assume we're building
into directory ~/zebra/, so we pass O=~/zebra to make.  Dependening on where
we run the build from, we see:

	make run in dir		$(OUTPUT) dir
	=======================	==================
	linux			~/zebra/tools/perf/
	linux/tools		~/zebra/perf/
	linux/tools/perf	~/zebra/

and if O= is not set, we get:

	make run in dir		$(OUTPUT) dir
	=======================	==================
	linux			linux/tools/perf/
	linux/tools		linux/tools/perf/
	linux/tools/perf	linux/tools/perf/

The output directories are created by the descend function if they don't
already exist.

   - Two warning fixes (modpost and main Makefile)
   - __compiletime_error works also with gcc 4.3
   - make tar{gz,bz2,xz}-pkg uses default compression settings instead
     of saving as many bytes as possible (this should actually be in the
     misc branch, I don't know why I applied it here)."

It doesn't, because the clean targets don't include kernel/Makefile, and
because two files were missing from the list.

10b63956fc UAPI: Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking
Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system.
As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old
Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files.

The changes made in this commit are:

 (1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to
     uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we
     get:

	include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
	arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h
	arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h
	arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h

     These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch.

 (2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from
     rather than the old path.

     It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also
     if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory
     during the changeover.

     I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a
     directory not the install program.

 (3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths
     instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly
     where to find each file.

     For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each
     output directory:

	.../include/uapi/foo/
	.../include/generated/uapi/foo/
	.../include/foo/
	.../include/generated/foo/

     The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.

abbf1590de UAPI: Partition the header include path sets and add uapi/ header directories
Partition the header include path flags into two sets, one for kernelspace
builds and one for userspace builds.

Add the following directories to build after the ordinary include directories
so that #include will pick up the UAPI header directly if the kernel header
has been moved there.

The userspace set (represented by the USERINCLUDE make variable) contains:

	-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi
	-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated/uapi
	-I $(srctree)/include/uapi
	-I include/generated/uapi
	-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h

and the kernelspace set (represented by the LINUXINCLUDE make variable)
contains:

	-I $(srctree)/arch/$(hdr-arch)/include
	-I arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/generated
	-I $(srctree)/include
	-I include		--- if not building in the source tree

plus everything in the USERINCLUDE set.

Then use USERINCLUDE in building the x86 boot code.

7e92daaefa Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf update from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lots of changes in this cycle as well, with hundreds of commits from
  over 30 contributors.  Most of the activity was on the tooling side.

  Higher level changes:

   - New 'perf kvm' analysis tool, from Xiao Guangrong.

   - New 'perf trace' system-wide tracing tool

   - uprobes fixes + cleanups from Oleg Nesterov.

   - Lots of patches to make perf build on Android out of box, from
     Irina Tirdea

   - Extend ftrace function tracing utility to be more dynamic for its
     users.  It allows for data passing to the callback functions, as
     well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger at function
     entry.

     The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use
     ftrace as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an
     ftrace nop.  With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going
     through lots of iterations, we finally came up with a good
     solution.

   - Add cpumask for uncore pmu, use it in 'stat', from Yan, Zheng.

   - Various tracing updates from Steve Rostedt

   - Clean up and improve 'perf sched' performance by elliminating lots
     of needless calls to libtraceevent.

   - Event group parsing support, from Jiri Olsa

   - UI/gtk refactorings and improvements from Namhyung Kim

   - Add support for non-tracepoint events in perf script python, from
     Feng Tang

   - Add --symbols to 'script', similar to the one in 'report', from
     Feng Tang.

  Infrastructure enhancements and fixes:

   - Convert the trace builtins to use the growing evsel/evlist
     tracepoint infrastructure, removing several open coded constructs
     like switch like series of strcmp to dispatch events, etc.
     Basically what had already been showcased in 'perf sched'.

   - Add evsel constructor for tracepoints, that uses libtraceevent just
     to parse the /format events file, use it in a new 'perf test' to
     make sure the libtraceevent format parsing regressions can be more
     readily caught.

   - Some strange errors were happening in some builds, but not on the
     next, reported by several people, problem was some parser related
     files, generated during the build, didn't had proper make deps, fix
     from Eric Sandeen.

   - Introduce struct and cache information about the environment where
     a perf.data file was captured, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix handling of unresolved samples when --symbols is used in
     'report', from Feng Tang.

   - Add union member access support to 'probe', from Hyeoncheol Lee.

   - Fixups to die() removal, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Render fixes for the TUI, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Don't enable annotation in non symbolic view, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix pipe mode in 'report', from Namhyung Kim.

   - Move related stats code from stat to util/, will be used by the
     'stat' kvm tool, from Xiao Guangrong.

   - Remove die()/exit() calls from several tools.

   - Resolve vdso callchains, from Jiri Olsa

   - Don't pass const char pointers to basename, so that we can
     unconditionally use libgen.h and thus avoid ifdef BIONIC lines,
     from David Ahern

   - Refactor hist formatting so that it can be reused with the GTK
     browser, From Namhyung Kim

   - Fix build for another rbtree.c change, from Adrian Hunter.

   - Make 'perf diff' command work with evsel hists, from Jiri Olsa.

   - Use the only field_sep var that is set up: symbol_conf.field_sep,
     fix from Jiri Olsa.

   - .gitignore compiled python binaries, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Get rid of die() in more libtraceevent places, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Rename libtraceevent 'private' struct member to 'priv' so that it
     works in C++, from Steven Rostedt

   - Remove lots of exit()/die() calls from tools so that the main perf
     exit routine can take place, from David Ahern

   - Fix x86 build on x86-64, from David Ahern.

   - {int,str,rb}list fixes from Suzuki K Poulose

   - perf.data header fixes from Namhyung Kim

   - Allow user to indicate objdump path, needed in cross environments,
     from Maciek Borzecki

   - Fix hardware cache event name generation, fix from Jiri Olsa

   - Add round trip test for sw, hw and cache event names, catching the
     problem Jiri fixed, after Jiri's patch, the test passes
     successfully.

   - Clean target should do clean for lib/traceevent too, fix from David
     Ahern

   - Check the right variable for allocation failure, fix from Namhyung
     Kim

   - Set up evsel->tp_format regardless of evsel->name being set
     already, fix from Namhyung Kim

   - Oprofile fixes from Robert Richter.

   - Remove perf_event_attr needless version inflation, from Jiri Olsa

   - Introduce libtraceevent strerror like error reporting facility,
     from Namhyung Kim

   - Add pmu mappings to perf.data header and use event names from cmd
     line, from Robert Richter

   - Fix include order for bison/flex-generated C files, from Ben
     Hutchings

   - Build fixes and documentation corrections from David Ahern

   - Assorted cleanups from Robert Richter

   - Let O= makes handle relative paths, from Steven Rostedt

   - perf script python fixes, from Feng Tang.

   - Initial bash completion support, from Frederic Weisbecker

   - Allow building without libelf, from Namhyung Kim.

   - Support DWARF CFI based unwind to have callchains when %bp based
     unwinding is not possible, from Jiri Olsa.

   - Symbol resolution fixes, while fixing support PPC64 files with an
     .opt ELF section was the end goal, several fixes for code that
     handles all architectures and cleanups are included, from Cody
     Schafer.

   - Assorted fixes for Documentation and build in 32 bit, from Robert
     Richter

   - Cache the libtraceevent event_format associated to each evsel
     early, so that we avoid relookups, i.e.  calling pevent_find_event
     repeatedly when processing tracepoint events.

     [ This is to reduce the surface contact with libtraceevents and
        make clear what is that the perf tools needs from that lib: so
        far parsing the common and per event fields.  ]

   - Don't stop the build if the audit libraries are not installed, fix
     from Namhyung Kim.

   - Fix bfd.h/libbfd detection with recent binutils, from Markus
     Trippelsdorf.

   - Improve warning message when libunwind devel packages not present,
     from Jiri Olsa"

70cfe02682 kbuild: Remove useless warning while appending KCFLAGS
This is a respin of an older patch sent by Sam Ravnborg:
  http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1530602

This patch removes the annoying warning:

Makefile:708: "WARNING: Appending $KCFLAGS (-Wno-sign-compare) from command
line to kernel $CFLAGS"

which is printed every time I use KCFLAFS. The commit which introduced the
warning:

69ee0b3 kbuild: do not pick up CFLAGS from the environment

tells about the problems when people have CFLAGS in their environment,
then switches to KCFLAFS which should be enough to solve the issue, but
it anyway introduces a warning. Drop this warning.

a2546fae01 ftrace: Add -mfentry to Makefile on function tracer
Thanks to Andi Kleen, gcc 4.6.0 now supports -mfentry for x86
(and hopefully soon for other archs). What this does is to have
the function profiler start at the beginning of the function
instead of after the stack is set up. As plain -pg (mcount) is
called after the stack is set up, and in some cases can have issues
with the function graph tracer. It also requires frame pointers to
be enabled.

The -mfentry now calls __fentry__ at the beginning of the function.
This allows for compiling without frame pointers and even has the
ability to access parameters if needed.

If the architecture and the compiler both support -mfentry then
use that instead.

a1f42beb8e Makefile: fix up CROSS_COMPILE and READABLE_ASM interaction.
When the READABLE_ASM cc-option tests were added they were done so prior
to the arch Makefile include, resulting in cc-option being run on the
host cc instead of the factoring in the cross prefix set up by the
architecture.

This bumps the include back up so that cc-option actually runs on the
compiler that we're building with.

Pull exception table generation updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change here is to allow the build-time sorting of the
  exception table, to speed up booting.  This is achieved by the
  architecture enabling BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT.  This option is enabled
  for x86 and MIPS currently.

  On x86 a number of fixes and changes were needed to allow build-time
  sorting of the exception table, in particular a relocation invariant
  exception table format was needed.  This required the abstracting out
  of exception table protocol and the removal of 20 years of accumulated
  assumptions about the x86 exception table format.

  While at it, this tree also cleans up various other aspects of
  exception handling, such as early(er) exception handling for
  rdmsr_safe() et al.

  All in one, as the result of these changes the x86 exception code is
  now pretty nice and modern.  As an added bonus any regressions in this
  code will be early and violent crashes, so if you see any of those,
  you'll know whom to blame!"

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lots of changes:

   - (much) improved assembly annotation support in perf report, with
     jump visualization, searching, navigation, visual output
     improvements and more.

    - kernel support for AMD IBS PMU hardware features.  Notably 'perf
      record -e cycles:p' and 'perf top -e cycles:p' should work without
      skid now, like PEBS does on the Intel side, because it takes
      advantage of IBS transparently.

    - the libtracevents library: it is the first step towards unifying
      tracing tooling and perf, and it also gives a tracing library for
      external tools like powertop to rely on.

    - infrastructure: various improvements and refactoring of the UI
      modules and related code

    - infrastructure: cleanup and simplification of the profiling
      targets code (--uid, --pid, --tid, --cpu, --all-cpus, etc.)

    - tons of robustness fixes all around

    - various ftrace updates: speedups, cleanups, robustness
      improvements.

    - typing 'make' in tools/ will now give you a menu of projects to
      build and a short help text to explain what each does.

    - ... and lots of other changes I forgot to list.

  The perf record make bzImage + perf report regression you reported
  should be fixed."

6520fe5564 x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs tool
A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'.
This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations
and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When
the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel
initialization, these relocation entries can be used to
relocate the code properly.

In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative
to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be
relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'.

16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code.
Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable
data references. They are declared in the linker script of the
real-mode code.

The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new
target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building
an architecture.  be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.

[ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute
  relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently
  produces bad kernels. ]

1f2bfbd00e kbuild: link of vmlinux moved to a script
Move the final link of vmlinux to a script to improve
readability and maintainability of the code.

The Makefile fragments used to link vmlinux has over the
years seen far too many changes and the logic had become
hard to follow.

As the process by nature is serialized there was
nothing gained including this in the Makefile.

"um" has special link requirments - and the
only way to handle this was to hard-code the linking
of "um" in the script.
This was better than trying to modularize it only for the
benefit of "um" anyway.

The shell script has been improved after input from:

When using remake, which is based on gnumake, if you invoke
an example build as shown below, the build will become silent
due to the top level make file incorrectly guessing that
the end user wants a silent build because an argument that
contained an "s" was used.  Here are two examples one with remake
and one with straight gnumake.

remake --no-extended-errors
make --warn-undefined-variables

Fix up the top level Makefile to use filter to parse the options
that mean silent instead of findstring catching other random
arguments containing an "s".

Commit 3d64b44 introduced an empty file under
arch/arm/mach-zynq/board_dt.c. While this was not intended and the file
was removed from the tree by a later commit, we really should only match
junk files by known name patterns and not their size.

2a11c8ea20 kconfig: Introduce IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN() and IS_MODULE()
Replace the config_is_*() macros with a variant that allows for grepping
for usage of CONFIG_* options in the code. Usage:

  if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NUMA))

or

  #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NUMA)

The IS_ENABLED() macro evaluates to 1 if the argument is set (to either 'y'
or 'm'), IS_BUILTIN() tests if the option is 'y' and IS_MODULE() test if
the option is 'm'. Only boolean and tristate options are supported.

18aecc2b64 arch/tile: finish enabling support for TILE-Gx 64-bit chip
This support was partially present in the existing code (look for
"__tilegx__" ifdefs) but with this change you can build a working
kernel using the TILE-Gx toolchain and ARCH=tilegx.

Most of these files are new, generally adding a foo_64.c file
where previously there was just a foo_32.c file.

The ARCH=tilegx directive redirects to arch/tile, not arch/tilegx,
using the existing SRCARCH mechanism in the top-level Makefile.

Changes to existing files:

- <asm/bitops.h> and <asm/bitops_32.h> changed to factor the
  include of <asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h> in the common header.

- <asm/compat.h> and arch/tile/kernel/compat.c changed to remove
  the "const" markers I had put on compat_sys_execve() when trying
  to match some recent similar changes to the non-compat execve.
  It turns out the compat version wasn't "upgraded" to use const.

- <asm/opcode-tile_64.h> and <asm/opcode_constants_64.h> were
  previously included accidentally, with the 32-bit contents.  Now
  they have the proper 64-bit contents.

Finally, I had to hack the existing hacky drivers/input/input-compat.h
to add yet another "#ifdef" for INPUT_COMPAT_TEST (same as x86_64).

According to Documentation/Changes, the kernel should be buildable with

Use a single clean rule for kernel and external modules) introduced the
"$(or" construct, which requires make 3.81.  This causes "make clean" to
malfunction when it is used with external modules.

Replace "$(or" with an equivalent "$(if" expression, to restore backward
compatibility.

8417da6f21 kbuild: Fix passing -Wno-* options to gcc 4.4+
Starting with 4.4, gcc will happily accept -Wno-<anything> in the
cc-option test and complain later when compiling a file that has some
other warning. This rather unexpected behavior is intentional as per
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR28322, so work around it by testing for support of
the opposite option (without the no-). Introduce a new Makefile function
cc-disable-warning that does this and update two uses of cc-option in
the toplevel Makefile.

d8ecc5cd8e kbuild: asm-generic support
There is an increasing amount of header files
shared between individual architectures in asm-generic.
To avoid a lot of dummy wrapper files that just
include the corresponding file in asm-generic provide
some basic support in kbuild for this.

With the following patch an architecture can maintain
a list of files in the file arch/$(ARCH)/include/asm/Kbuild

To use a generic file just add:

        generic-y += <name-of-header-file.h>

For each file listed kbuild will generate the necessary
wrapper in arch/$(ARCH)/include/generated/asm.

When installing userspace headers a wrapper is likewise created.

The original inspiration for this came from the unicore32
patchset - although a different method is used.

The patch includes several improvements from Arnd Bergmann.
Michael Marek contributed Makefile.asm-generic.

Remis Baima did an intial implementation along to achive
the same - see https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/13352/

28bc20dcca kbuild: implement several W= levels
Building a kernel with "make W=1" produces far too much noise to be
useful.

Divide the warning options in three groups:

    W=1 - warnings that may be relevant and does not occur too often
    W=2 - warnings that occur quite often but may still be relevant
    W=3 - the more obscure warnings, can most likely be ignored

When building the whole kernel, those levels produce:

W=1 - 4859 warnings
W=2 - 1394 warnings
W=3 - 86666 warnings

respectively. Warnings have been counted with Geert's script at

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/geert/linux-log/linux-log-summary.pl

Many warnings occur from .h files so fixing one file may have a nice
effect on the total number of warnings.

With these changes I am actually tempted to try W=1 now and then.
Previously there was just too much noise.

Borislav:

- make the W= levels exclusive
- move very noisy and making little sense for the kernel warnings to W=3
- drop -Woverlength-strings due to useless warning message
- copy explanatory text for the different warning levels to 'make help'
- recount warnings per level

1e2795a119 kbuild: move KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS from Kconfig to Makefile
At the moment we have the CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS Kconfig switch,
which users can enable or disable while configuring the kernel. This
option is then used by 'make' to determine whether an extra kallsyms
pass is needed or not.

However, this approach is not nice and confusing, and this patch moves
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS from Kconfig to Makefile instead. The
rationale is below.

1. CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is really about the build time, not
   run-time. There is no real need for it to be in Kconfig. It is
   just an additional work-around which should be used only in rare
   cases, when someone breaks kallsyms, so Kbuild/Makefile is much
   better place for this option.
2. Grepping CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS shows that many defconfigs have
   it enabled, probably not because they try to work-around a kallsyms
   bug, but just because the Kconfig help text is confusing and does
   not really make it clear that this option should not be used unless
   except when kallsyms is broken.
3. And since many people have CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS enabled in
   their Kconfig, we do might fail to notice kallsyms bugs in time. E.g.,
   many testers use "make allyesconfig" to test builds, which will enable
   CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS and kallsyms breakage will not be noticed.

To address that, this patch:

1. Kills CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS
2. Changes Makefile so that people can use "make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1"
   to enable the extra pass if needed. Additionally, they may define
   KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS as an environment variable.
3. By default KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is disabled and if kallsyms has issues,
   "make" should print a warning and suggest using KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS

e1b702cf22 KBuild: silence "'scripts/unifdef' is up to date."
While changing our build system over to use the headers_install target
as part of our klibc build, the following message started showing up in
our logs:

make[2]: `scripts/unifdef' is up to date.

It turns out that the build blindly invokes a recursive make on this
target, which causes make to emit this message when the target is
already up to date.  This isn't seen for most targets as the rest of the
build relies primarily on the default target and on PHONY targets when
invoking make recursively.

Silence the above message when building unifdef as part of
headers_install by hiding it behind a new PHONY target called
"build_unifdef" that has an empty recipe.

4a5838ad9d kbuild: Add extra gcc checks
Add a 'W=1' Makefile switch which adds additional checking per build
object.

The idea behind this option is targeted at developers who, in the
process of writing their code, want to do the occasional

make W=1 [target.o]

and let gcc do more extensive code checking for them. Then, they
could eyeball the output for valid gcc warnings about various
bugs/discrepancies which are not reported during the normal build
process.

For more background information and a use case, read through this
thread: http://marc.info/?l=kernel-janitors&m=129802065918147&w=2
