From d8ecc5cd8e227bc318513b5306ae88a474b8886d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sam Ravnborg Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 22:29:49 +0200 Subject: kbuild: asm-generic support There is an increasing amount of header files shared between individual architectures in asm-generic. To avoid a lot of dummy wrapper files that just include the corresponding file in asm-generic provide some basic support in kbuild for this. With the following patch an architecture can maintain a list of files in the file arch/$(ARCH)/include/asm/Kbuild To use a generic file just add: generic-y += For each file listed kbuild will generate the necessary wrapper in arch/$(ARCH)/include/generated/asm. When installing userspace headers a wrapper is likewise created. The original inspiration for this came from the unicore32 patchset - although a different method is used. The patch includes several improvements from Arnd Bergmann. Michael Marek contributed Makefile.asm-generic. Remis Baima did an intial implementation along to achive the same - see https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/13352/ Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg Acked-by: Guan Xuetao Tested-by: Guan Xuetao Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Remis Lima Baima Signed-off-by: Michal Marek --- .gitignore | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to '.gitignore') diff --git a/.gitignore b/.gitignore index 5d56a3fd0de..9dacde0a4b2 100644 --- a/.gitignore +++ b/.gitignore @@ -57,6 +57,7 @@ modules.builtin include/config include/linux/version.h include/generated +arch/*/include/generated # stgit generated dirs patches-* -- cgit v1.2.3
