Subject: [PATCH 00/15] kbuild: refactor headers_install and support compile-test of UAPI headers


Multiple people have suggested to compile-test UAPI headers.

Currently, Kbuild provides simple sanity checks by headers_check
but they are not enough to catch bugs.

The most recent patch I know is David Howells' work:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10590203/

I agree that we need better tests for UAPI headers,
but I want to integrate it in a clean way.

The idea that has been in my mind is to compile each header
to make sure the selfcontainedness.

Recently, Jani Nikula proposed a new syntax 'header-test-y'.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10947005/

So, I implemented UAPI compile-testing on top of that.

When adding a new feature, cleaning the code first is a
good practice.

[1] Remove headers_install_all

This target installs UAPI headers of all architectures
in a single tree.
It does not make sense to compile test of headers from
multiple arches at the same time. Hence, removed.

[2] Split header installation into 'make headers' and 'make headers_install'

To compile-test UAPI headers, we need a work-directory somewhere
to save objects and .*.cmd files.

usr/include/ will be the work-directory.

Since we cannot pollute the final destination of headers_install,

I split the header installation into two stages.

'make headers' will build up
the ready-to-install headers in usr/include,
which will be also used as a work-directory for the compile-test.

'make headers_install' will copy headers
from usr/include to $(INSTALL_HDR_PATH)/include.

[3] Support compile-test of UAPI headers

This is implemented in usr/include/Makefile


Jani Nikula (1):
  kbuild: add support for ensuring headers are self-contained

  kbuild: remove headers_{install,check}_all
  kbuild: remove stale dependency between Documentation/ and
    headers_install
  kbuild: make gdb_script depend on prepare0 instead of prepare
  kbuild: fix Kconfig prompt of CONFIG_HEADERS_CHECK
  kbuild: add CONFIG_HEADERS_INSTALL and loosen the dependency of
    samples
  kbuild: remove build_unifdef target in scripts/Makefile
  kbuild: build all prerequisite of headers_install simultaneously
  kbuild: add 'headers' target to build up ready-to-install uapi headers
  kbuild: re-implement Makefile.headersinst without directory descending
  kbuild: move hdr-inst shorthand to top Makefile
  kbuild: simplify scripts/headers_install.sh
  kbuild: deb-pkg: do not run headers_check
  fixup: kbuild: add support for ensuring headers are self-contained
  kbuild: compile test UAPI headers to ensure they are self-contained
