Subject: [PATCH bpf-next] kbuild: Restore ability to build out-of-tree modules
Date: Tue,  1 Dec 2020 16:37:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201201143700.719828-1-leon@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com>

The out-of-tree modules are built without vmlinux target and request
to recompile that target unconditionally causes to the following
compilation error.

[root@server kernel]# make
<..>
make -f ./scripts/Makefile.modpost
make -f ./scripts/Makefile.modfinal
make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'vmlinux', needed by '/my_temp/out-of-tree-module/kernel/test.ko'.  Stop.
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:117: __modpost] Error 2
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1703: modules] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/kernels/5.10.0-rc5_for_upstream_base_2020_11_29_11_34'
make: *** [Makefile:80: modules] Error 2

As a solution separate between build paths that has vmlinux target and paths without.

Fixes: 5f9ae91f7c0d ("kbuild: Build kernel module BTFs if BTF is enabled and pahole supports it")

Not proficient enough in Makefile, but it fixes the issue.
