extra-y target doesn't build for 'make M=...' since commit 6212804f2d78
("kbuild: do not create built-in objects for external module builds").

This especially breaks kpatch, which is using 'extra-y := kpatch.lds'
and 'make M=...' to build livepatch patch module.

Add extra-y to targets-for-modules so that such kind of build works
properly.

NACK.

Please fix your Makefile.

Probably what you should use is 'targets'.

I tried with 'targets' and 'always-y'. Both doesn't work for me.

I narraw it down to the following example:

cat > Makefile << _EOF_
obj-m += foo.o

ldflags-y += -T $(src)/kpatch.lds
always-y += kpatch.lds

foo-objs += bar.o

all:
	make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD)
clean:
	make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) clean
_EOF_

Take a look into scripts/Makefile.build:488:

__build: $(if $(KBUILD_BUILTIN), $(targets-for-builtin)) \
	 $(if $(KBUILD_MODULES), $(targets-for-modules)) \
	 $(subdir-ym) $(always-y)
	@:

'always-y' is built after 'targets-for-modules'. This makes
'targets-for-modules' fails because kpatch.lds isn't there.

For 'targets', in case of OOT, does not seem to be useful.

What change do you suggest to make to fix this kind of Makefile?

Thanks,
WANG Chao

Heh, you rely on the targets built from left to right,
and you have never thought Make supports the parallel option -j.


You need to specify the dependency if you expect objects
are built in the particular order.

However, in this case, using ldflags-y looks wrong
in the first place.

The linker script is used when combining the object
as well as the final link of *.ko

You're right. I missed that.

I don't have a clean fix to kpatch right now.

I'm looping kpatch forks in. They're also looking at this right now:

We want linker script to be used on both those steps, otherwise modpost
fails.

It looks like the right thing to do here is leave ldflags-y in, get rid
of always-y/extra-y altogether and specify our linker script as a
dependency for the object.

In that case, does the following work?
(untested)



diff --git a/kmod/patch/Makefile b/kmod/patch/Makefile

Hi Masahiro,

Yeah this is more or less what Artem came up with:
https://github.com/dynup/kpatch/pull/1149

though we hadn't added kpatch.lds to targets.  Is there documentation 
somewhere on what effect "targets" has for out-of-tree builds?

Thanks,

Please try the rebuild without changing any source code.

If kpatch.lds is needlessly rebuilt, you need to add
it to 'targets'.


In linux-next, this is documented.

Documentation/kbuild/makefile.rst:

        Any target that utilizes if_changed must be listed in $(targets),
        otherwise the command line check will fail, and the target will
        always be built.
