Commit Message

Listing public headers when out-of-tree build are involved becomes
more annoying where every path to every headers needs to start with
"$(srctree)/$(src)", or $(wildcard ) will not work. This means more
repetition. ( "$(srcdir)" is a shortcut for "$(srctree)/$(src)" )

This patch attempt to reduce the amount of duplication and make better
use of make's meta programming capability. The filters are now listed
in a variable and don't have to repeat the path to the headers files
as this is added later as needed.

Notes:
    v8:
    - add prefix "public-" to newly introduced macros.
    - make use of the new "$(srcdir)" shortcut.

Personally I find it odd for public-c99-headers to be first in this group.
Further down, in the upper-case counterparts, you have it at the end (still
in context below).

What is the criteria to be listed here vs ...

> +public-ansi-headers-filter := %ctl.h xsm/% %hvm/save.h $(public-headers-filter) $(public-c99-headers)

... outside of that macro's expansion here? There's no other use of the
macro that I can spot, so its presence is puzzling me.

While benign right now, wouldn't it be more consistent if
public-filter-headers was also applied in this last case? Or is
there a reason not to?

The "%-filter" macro are used by the macro "public-filter-headers",
which takes "$(%)" and filter-out "$(%-filter)".

Currently, PUBLIC_ANSI_HEADERS is PUBLIC_HEADERS with headers
filtered-out.
And PUBLIC_HEADERS is public-y with headers filtered-out.

In my patch, I derive PUBLIC_ANSI_HEADERS from public-y, so I also need
to use the filter used to generate PUBLIC_HEADERS. So
$(public-headers-filter) is both used on its own and in the ansi-filter.

It wouldn't work at the moment because $(public-c99-headers) aren't
prefix with "$(public-hdrs-path)" like $(public-headers). This is
because I'm using $(public-c99-headers) in
$(public-ansi-headers-filter).

Maybe I should just had the prefix to the c99-headers and removing the
prefix when using it in the filter, something like that:

    public-c99-headers := $(addprefix $(public-hdrs-path)/,io/9pfs.h io/pvcalls.h)
    public-ansi-headers-filter := %ctl.h xsm/% %hvm/save.h $(public-headers-filter) \
        $(patsubst $(public-hdrs-path)/%,%,$(public-c99-headers))

then I thin that would work:
    PUBLIC_C99_HEADERS := $(call public-filter-headers,public-c99-headers)

I could put an empty "public-c99-headers-filter :=" somewhere, just in
case one is looking for it later.
