Commit Message

Since commit f2f02ebd8f38 ("kbuild: improve cc-option to clean up all
temporary files"), running 'make kernelversion' in a read-only source
tree emits a bunch of warnings:

  mkdir: cannot create directory '.tmp_12345': Permission denied

Non-build targets such as kernelversion, clean, help, etc. do not
need to evaluate $(call cc-option,) and friends. Do not include
Makefile.compiler so $(call cc-option,) becomes no-op.

This not only fix the warnings, but also runs non-build targets much
faster.

Basically, all installation targets should also be non-build targets.
Unfortunately, vdso_install requires the compiler because it builds
vdso before installtion. This is a problem that must be fixed by a
separate patch.

I am not adding Reported-by for now because a reporter sent me
an email privately.

If he allows me to add Reported-by, I will add it to record
the credit.

(Perhaps, another person might have reported a similar issue
somewhere, but my memory is obsure. I cannot recall it.)

Hi Masahiro,

I see a new warning in my builds on arm64 now when running
'modules_install' or 'dtbs_install' because ld-option evaluates to
nothing, which triggers the warning in arch/arm64/Makefile:

$ make -skj"$(nproc)" \
ARCH=arm64 \
CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux- \
INSTALL_DTBS_PATH=rootfs \
INSTALL_MOD_PATH=rootfs \
O=build/arm64 \
distclean defconfig all modules_install dtbs_install
...
/home/nathan/cbl/src/linux-next/arch/arm64/Makefile:25: ld does not support --fix-cortex-a53-843419; kernel may be susceptible to erratum
/home/nathan/cbl/src/linux-next/arch/arm64/Makefile:25: ld does not support --fix-cortex-a53-843419; kernel may be susceptible to erratum

$ sed -n '23,29p' arch/arm64/Makefile
ifeq ($(CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419),y)
  ifeq ($(call ld-option, --fix-cortex-a53-843419),)
$(warning ld does not support --fix-cortex-a53-843419; kernel may be susceptible to erratum)
  else
LDFLAGS_vmlinux += --fix-cortex-a53-843419
  endif
endif

I am not sure how this should be resolved, hence just the report.

Cheers,
Nathan

I see this a few lines below:

ifeq ($(CONFIG_ARM64_USE_LSE_ATOMICS), y)
  ifneq ($(CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS), y)
$(warning LSE atomics not supported by binutils)
  endif
endif


We can move ld-option evaluation to Kconfig.

ifeq ($(CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419),y)
  ifneq ($(CONFIG_ARM64_LD_HAS_FIX_ERRATUM_843419,y))
$(warning ld does not support --fix-cortex-a53-843419; kernel may be
susceptible to erratum)
  else
LDFLAGS_vmlinux += --fix-cortex-a53-843419
  endif
endif


I do not know what CONFIG name is preferred.
