b16838c6 - kbuild: trace functions in subdirectories of lib/

Tue, 07 Jul 2020 09:21:17 +0000

kbuild: trace functions in subdirectories of lib/ccflags-remove-$(CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER) += $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)exists here in sub-directories of lib/ to keep the behavior ofcommit 2464a609ded0 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions").Since that commit, not only the objects in lib/ but also the ones inthe sub-directories are excluded from ftrace (although the commitdescription did not explicitly mention this).However, most of library functions in sub-directories are not so hot.Re-add them to ftrace.Going forward, only the objects right under lib/ will be excluded.Cc: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) List of files: /linux-6.15/lib/xz/Makefile

15d5761a - kbuild: introduce ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y

Tue, 07 Jul 2020 09:21:16 +0000

kbuild: introduce ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-yCFLAGS_REMOVE_.o filters out flags when compiling a particularobject, but there is no convenient way to do that for every object ina directory.Add ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y to make it easily.Use ccflags-remove-y to clean up some Makefiles.The add/remove order works as follows: [1] KBUILD_CFLAGS specifies compiler flags used globally [2] ccflags-y adds compiler flags for all objects in the current Makefile [3] ccflags-remove-y removes compiler flags for all objects in the current Makefile (New feature) [4] CFLAGS_ adds compiler flags per file. [5] CFLAGS_REMOVE_ removes compiler flags per file.Having [3] before [4] allows us to remove flags from most (but not all)objects in the current Makefile.For example, kernel/trace/Makefile removes $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)from all objects in the directory, then adds it back totrace_selftest_dynamic.o and CFLAGS_trace_kprobe_selftest.oThe same applies to lib/livepatch/Makefile.Please note ccflags-remove-y has no effect to the sub-directories.In contrast, the previous notation got rid of compiler flags also fromall the sub-directories.The following are not affected because they have no sub-directories: arch/arm/boot/compressed/ arch/powerpc/xmon/ arch/sh/ kernel/trace/However, lib/ has several sub-directories.To keep the behavior, I added ccflags-remove-y to all Makefilesin subdirectories of lib/, except the following: lib/vdso/Makefile - Kbuild does not descend into this Makefile lib/raid/test/Makefile - This is not used for the kernel buildI think commit 2464a609ded0 ("ftrace: do not trace library functions")excluded too much. In the next commit, I will remove ccflags-remove-yfrom the sub-directories of lib/.Suggested-by: Sami Tolvanen Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) Acked-by: Michael Ellerman (powerpc)Acked-by: Brendan Higgins (KUnit)Tested-by: Anders Roxell List of files: /linux-6.15/lib/xz/Makefile

24fa0402 - decompressors: add XZ decompressor module

Thu, 13 Jan 2011 01:01:22 +0000

decompressors: add XZ decompressor moduleIn userspace, the .lzma format has become mostly a legacy file format thatgot superseded by the .xz format. Similarly, LZMA Utils was superseded byXZ Utils.These patches add support for XZ decompression into the kernel. Most ofthe code is as is from XZ Embedded .It was written for the Linux kernel but is usable in other projects too.Advantages of XZ over the current LZMA code in the kernel: - Nice API that can be used by other kernel modules; it's not limited to kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression. - Integrity check support (CRC32) - BCJ filters improve compression of executable code on certain architectures. These together with LZMA2 can produce a few percent smaller kernel or Squashfs images than plain LZMA without making the decompression slower.This patch: Add the main decompression code (xz_dec), testing module(xz_dec_test), wrapper script (xz_wrap.sh) for the xz command line tool,and documentation. The xz_dec module is enough to have a usable XZdecompressor e.g. for Squashfs.Signed-off-by: Lasse Collin Cc: "H.
