This patch refactors the code as outlined in: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kbuild/CAK7LNAR-VXwHFEJqCcrFDZj+_4+Xd6oynbj_0eS8N504_ydmyw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ First some patches refactor certs/Makefile. This Makefile is written in a too complicated way. I will revert cd8c917a56f20f48748dd43d9ae3caff51d5b987 after this lands in the upstream. Masahiro Yamada (11): certs: use $< and $@ to simplify the key generation rule certs: unify duplicated cmd_extract_certs and improve the log certs: remove unneeded -I$(srctree) option for system_certificates.o certs: refactor file cleaning certs: remove misleading comments about GCC PR kbuild: stop using config_filename in scripts/Makefile.modsign certs: simplify $(srctree)/ handling and remove config_filename macro kbuild: do not include include/config/auto.conf from shell scripts kbuild: do not quote string values in include/config/auto.conf certs: move scripts/extract-cert to certs/ microblaze: use built-in function to get CPU_{MAJOR,MINOR,REV} MAINTAINERS | 1 - Makefile | 6 +- arch/arc/Makefile | 4 +- arch/arc/boot/dts/Makefile | 4 +- arch/h8300/boot/dts/Makefile | 6 +- arch/microblaze/Makefile | 8 +-- arch/nds32/boot/dts/Makefile | 7 +-- arch/nios2/boot/dts/Makefile | 2 +- arch/openrisc/boot/dts/Makefile | 7 +-- arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile | 2 +- arch/riscv/boot/dts/canaan/Makefile | 4 +- arch/sh/boot/dts/Makefile | 4 +- arch/xtensa/Makefile | 2 +- arch/xtensa/boot/dts/Makefile | 5 +- certs/.gitignore | 1 + certs/Makefile | 55 +++++++------------ {scripts => certs}/extract-cert.c | 2 +- drivers/acpi/Makefile | 2 +- drivers/base/firmware_loader/builtin/Makefile | 4 +- init/Makefile | 2 +- net/wireless/Makefile | 4 +- scripts/.gitignore | 1 - scripts/Kbuild.include | 47 ---------------- scripts/Makefile | 11 +--- scripts/Makefile.modinst | 4 +- scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh | 11 +--- scripts/kconfig/confdata.c | 2 +- scripts/link-vmlinux.sh | 47 ++++++++-------- scripts/remove-stale-files | 2 + scripts/setlocalversion | 9 ++- usr/Makefile | 2 +- 31 files changed, 87 insertions(+), 181 deletions(-) rename {scripts => certs}/extract-cert.c (98%) -- 2.32.0
