[PATCH v2 0/6] kbuild: use target compiler for user binaries in samples/

[Sam Ravnborg]

[PATCH v2 0/6] kbuild: use target compiler for user binaries in samples/

The user-space binaries build in samples/ uses the installed
headers for the kernel.
Therefore it is wrong that they use the host compiler
to build the samples.

This set of patches add kbuild support for building
the userspace programs.
They are build with same endian and bit-size as the kernel,
so in other words no support for buildign 32 bit userspace for
a 64 bit kernel.
The majority of the patch is the Documentation changes,
especially because a new chapter was added.

NOTE: This will likely break the build if the toolchain used do
not include a libc. Let's see how much noise this creates.

I have included a few moe people in this submission as
I assume this has their interest.

Michal - I hope you can take this via the kbuild#misc
tree when any feedback has been addressed.

Changes since first posting (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/31/74):
- Use $(biarch) in X86_32 (feedback from Michael Marek)
- Drop sub-directory support (feedback from Michael Marek)
  o This simplified the uapi support a lot
- Fix clean support (feedback from Michael Marek)
- Added documentation to Documentation/kbuild/
- Use $(CC) as there is no need for a dedicated UAPICC
- Prefer foobar-y over foobar-objs for specifying .o files
  for a binary
- Move cc options to Makefile.uapiprogs and only use -Wall
- Use -isystem to include installed uapi headers before headers
  provided by the installed libc
- Divided up in smaller patches to ease review

[PATCH 1/6] kbuild: add support for building userspace api programs

[Sam Ravnborg]

Add dedicated support for building the usersapce api sample
programs that is located in samples/
The dedicated kbuild support allows us to use much simpler
Makefile fragments while building the userspace programs for
the same host as the kernel.

The syntax looks like this:

    uapiprogs-y := hid-example

This will build the userspace program hid-example from
hid-example.c and include files will be preferred from
the exported uapi headers.

The userspace sample programs rely on the exported uapi
header files and thus are supposed to be built for the
same architecture as the kernel. Bit bit-size will be the
same as used for the kernel so there is no support for
building 32 bit binaries for a 64 bit kernel.

To build the userspace programs the toolchain needs to
include support for this - so this change will break
the build for the setups that rely on toolchain without
any libc included.

One fix for this would be to add a libc to the kernel,
but this seems to be a rather drastic measure just to support
building a few sample programs.
The better fix is to use toolchains with libc support.

This patch introduces only the infrastructure - including
the setup for various architectures to specify -m option.

+=== 5 Samples support (uapiprogs-y)
+
+Kbuild support building sample modules and sample binaries.
+To build sample modules the existing infrastructure is used, but
+to build sample binaries kbuild adds dedicated suppport.
+
+The sample binaries are build for the same host and bit-size as the kernel.
+
+The samples may demonstrate facilities not yet available
+in the installed libc therefore they are build so they include
+headers from the exported uapi headers before the libc headers
+are searched.
+
+The sample binaries are usually placed in sub-directories
+below samples/ and specified in samples/Makefile.
+The directories containing sample binaries are listed using
+subdir-y - usually like this: subdir-$(CONFIG_SAMPLES) += dir
+
+The individual binaries may be defined as single .c file per binary
+or several .c files for a single binary.
+See the following examples.
+
+	Example:
+		# samples/hid/Makefile
+		uapiprogs-y := hid-example
+
+	This will compile hid-example.c and create an executable named hid-example.
+
+	Example:
+		# samples/seccomp/Makefile
+		uapiprogs-y := bpf-fancy
+		bpf-fancy-y := bpf-fancy.o bpf-helper.o

+This will compile bpf-fancy.c and bpf-helper.c, and then link the executable
+bpf-fancy, based on bpf-fancy.o bpf-helper.o.

[PATCH 2/6] samples: refactor Makefile

[Sam Ravnborg]

Use one line per module/program in Makefile.
This style is easier to read/extend.

Introduce inverse xmas style sorting.
This may prevent some merge conflicts in the future

Sort by length - with longest entry first. Like an xmas tree upside-down.
For entries with same lenght sort alphabetically.

Advocated in some places for includes and other places for local variables.

One recent reference is for example this:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=140510662905580&w=2

I will rephrase it like this:

# Sort entries using inverse xmas style:
# Longest entries first, alphabetically when legth is the same.

OK?

If you are going to sort, just sort alphabetically ... this length
based sorting just means you have to search to find anything ... It
looks pretty, but that is about all.

Then I will drop them from linux-next.  Until someone supplies lots of

Just to be clear: for my current build infrastructure, this means

I am interested in this series.

Forgive me if I am asking a stupid question..


How can I build hostprogs for the same host as the kernel?
(I mean, how can I override $(HOSTCC) for cross-compiling ?)

Thanks - will fix.

One way to do this:

make ARCH=sparc CROSS_COMPILE=sparc-leon-linux-gnu- HOSTCC=sparc-leon-linux-gnu-gcc

Notice that I override HOSTCC as part of the make comand line.
This allows me to override the "=" assignment in the top-level Makefile.

But then my build breaks as fixdep do not run on my host.

If you in general want to build a binary for the target then uapiprogs come in handy.
Only caveat here is that you will be using the exported kernel headers.

Thanks for explaining this. It is clearer to me now.

At first I thought this patch was a clean-up,
but it is indeed a big improvement.
Thanks!

So we basically can have zero, one or both of
A) target toolchain with libc support
B) host toolchain with recent enough kernel headers

Just can idea - in case we have B, but not A, would it make sense to
build $(uapiprogs-y) with the host compiler, but without the
-Iusr/include flag? The question is whether to add a kconfig knob for
this, or some automatic detection for libc support of the target
toolchain. I'll come up with a patch later.

Actually, we can build with the host compiler against the exported
headers, these just need to be exported for the right architecture.
How about the following patch (applies on top of 1/6 of
this series)? It creates a usr/host/include tree with headers for the
host architecture and builds the uapiprogs with the host compiler. This
should build in all scenarios that work today. The only downside is that
when cross-compiling, the sample binaries continue to be somewhat
impractical. But it is not _that_ difficult to build them by hand,
provided one has a complete cross-compiling setup.
