Subject: kexec_core: change dependency of object files
Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2023 14:03:25 +0800
When dropping the select of KEXEC for CRASH_DUMP, compiling error will be
triggered if below config items are set on some architectures.
===
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
===
E.g the building error on loongarch:
---------------------------------------------------------------
loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L209':
>> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1660): undefined reference to `machine_kexec_cleanup'
loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L287':
>> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1c5c): undefined reference to `machine_crash_shutdown'
>> loongarch64-linux-ld: kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1c64): undefined reference to `machine_kexec'
loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L2^B5':
>> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x2090): undefined reference to `machine_shutdown'
loongarch64-linux-ld: kexec_core.c:(.text+0x20a0): undefined reference to `machine_kexec'
---------------------------------------------------------------
The reason is that currently in arch/loongarch/kernel/Makefile, building
machine_kexec.o relocate_kernel.o depends on CONFIG_KEXEC. So the
building of the two object files is skipped because CONFIG_KEXEC=n in that
case.
And this situation exists in m68k, mips and sh ARCH too.
Here, changing the dependency of machine_kexec.o relocate_kernel.o to
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE for all relevant architectures.
