[PATCH 4/4] kbuild: remove 'addtree' and 'flags' magic for header search paths

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The 'addtree' and 'flags' in scripts/Kbuild.include are so compilecated
and ugly.

As I mentioned in [1], Kbuild should stop automatic prefixing of header
search path options.

Instead, in-kernel Makefiles should explicitly add $(srctree)/ to
the search paths in the srctree.

Kbuild still caters to add $(srctree)/$(src) and $(objtree)/$(obj)
to the header search path for O= building, but never touches extra
compiler options from ccflags-y etc.

Going forward, in-kernel Makefiles should explicitly specify
$(srctree)/ if extra search paths are needed.

 Example)    ccflags-y += -I $(srctree)/foo/bar

You do not have to change external module Makefiles because $(src)
is already an absolute path for external modules.

 Example)    ccflags-y += -I $(src)/foo/bar
