6588169d51 kbuild: allow assignment to {A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE on the command line
It is now possible to assign options to AS, CC and LD
on the command line - which is only used when building modules.

{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE was all used both in the top-level Makefile
in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify
additional options to AS, CC, LD when building modules
without overriding the original value.

Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE
that is used by arch specific files and free up
{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE so they can be assigned on
the command line.

All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated.

Note: Previously we had a MODFLAGS variable for both
AS and CC. But in favour of consistency this was dropped.
So in some cases arch Makefile has one assignmnet replaced by
two assignmnets.

Note2: MODFLAGS was not documented and is dropped
without any notice. I do not expect much/any breakage
from this.

d35cb360c2 markers: fix duplicate modpost entry
When a kernel was rebuilt, the previous Module.markers was not cleared.
It caused markers with different format strings to appear as duplicates
when a markers was changed.  This problem is present since
scripts/mod/modpost.c started to generate Module.markers, commit
b2e3e658b3

It therefore applies to 2.6.25, 2.6.26 and linux-next.

I merely merged the patches from Roland, Wenji and Takashi here.

96d97f262a kbuild: fix $(src) assignmnet with external modules
When we introduced support for KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS
we started to include the externam module's kbuild
file when doing the final modpost step.

As external modules often do:
ccflags-y := -I$(src)

We had problems because $(src) was unassinged and
gcc then used the next parameter for -I resulting in
strange build failures.

Fix is to assign $(src) and $(obj) when building
external modules.

This fixes: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10798

4ce6efed48 kbuild: soften modpost checks when doing cross builds
The module alias support in the kernel have a consistency
check where it is checked that the size of a structure
in the kernel and on the build host are the same.
For cross builds this check does not make sense so detect
when we do cross builds and silently skip the check in these
situations.
This fixes a build bug for a wireless driver when cross building
for arm.

b2e3e658b3 Linux Kernel Markers: create modpost file
This adds some new magic in the MODPOST phase for CONFIG_MARKERS.  Analogous
to the Module.symvers file, the build will now write a Module.markers file
when CONFIG_MARKERS=y is set.  This file lists the name, defining module, and
format string of each marker, separated by \t characters.  This simple text
file can be used by offline build procedures for instrumentation code,
analogous to how System.map and Module.symvers can be useful to have for
kernels other than the one you are running right now.

The strings are made easy to extract by having the __trace_mark macro define
the name and format together in a single array called __mstrtab_* in the
__markers_strings section.  This is straightforward and reliable as long as
the marker structs are always defined by this macro.  It is an unreasonable
amount of hairy work to extract the string pointers from the __markers section
structs, which entails handling a relocation type for every machine under the
sun.

588ccd732b kbuild: add verbose option to Section mismatch reporting in modpost
If the config option CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH is not set and
we see a Section mismatch present the following to the user:

modpost: Found 1 section mismatch(es).
To see additional details select "Enable full Section mismatch analysis"
in the Kernel Hacking menu (CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH).

If the option CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH is selected
then be verbose in the Section mismatch reporting from mdopost.
Sample outputs:

WARNING: o-x86_64/vmlinux.o(.text+0x7396): Section mismatch in reference from the function discover_ebda() to the variable .init.data:ebda_addr
The function  discover_ebda() references
the variable __initdata ebda_addr.
This is often because discover_ebda lacks a __initdata
annotation or the annotation of ebda_addr is wrong.

WARNING: o-x86_64/vmlinux.o(.data+0x74d58): Section mismatch in reference from the variable pci_serial_quirks to the function .devexit.text:pci_plx9050_exit()
The variable pci_serial_quirks references
the function __devexit pci_plx9050_exit()
If the reference is valid then annotate the
variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
*driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console,

WARNING: o-x86_64/vmlinux.o(__ksymtab+0x630): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __ksymtab_arch_register_cpu to the function .cpuinit.text:arch_register_cpu()
The symbol arch_register_cpu is exported and annotated __cpuinit
Fix this by removing the __cpuinit annotation of arch_register_cpu or drop the export.

741f98fe29 kbuild: do section mismatch check on full vmlinux
Previously we did do the check on the .o files used to link
vmlinux but that failed to find questionable references across
the .o files.
Create a dedicated vmlinux.o file used only for section mismatch checks
that uses the defualt linker script so section does not get renamed.

The vmlinux.o may later be used as part of the the final link of vmlinux
but for now it is used fo section mismatch only.
For a defconfig build this is instant but for an allyesconfig this
add two minutes to a full build (that anyways takes ~2 hours).

3f3fd3c055 [PATCH] kbuild: allow multi-word $M in Makefile.modpost
Some people want to do crazy things like pass multiple directories as the
value of $(SUBDIRS) or $M.  Mostly this kinda works, except that
Makefile.modpost constructs a modpost commandline which fails modpost's
argument parsing.  This patch fixes that little wrinkle.

ea837f1c05 kbuild: make modpost processing configurable
On request from Al Viro make modpost processing configurable.

KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN can be set to make modpost warn instead of
error out in case on unresolved symbols in final module link.

KBUILD_MODPOST_NOFINAL can be set to avoid the final and timeconsuming
.c file generation and link of .ko files. This is solely useful for
speeding up when doing compile checks with for example allmodconfig

c53ddacdc0 kbuild: fail kernel compilation in case of unresolved module symbols
At stage 2 modpost utility is used to check modules.  In case of unresolved
symbols modpost only prints warning.

IMHO it is a good idea to fail compilation process in case of unresolved
symbols (at least in modules coming with kernel), since usually such errors
are left unnoticed, but kernel modules are broken.

- new option '-w' is added to modpost:
  if option is specified, modpost only warns about unresolved symbols

- modpost is called with '-w' for external modules in Makefile.modpost

5e8d780d74 kbuild: fix ia64 breakage after introducing make -rR
kbuild used $¤(*F to get filename of target without extension.
This was used in several places all over kbuild, but introducing
make -rR broke his for all cases where we specified full path to
target/prerequsite. It is assumed that make -rR disables old style
suffix-rules which is why is suddenly failed.

ia64 was impacted by this change because several div* routines in
arch/ia64/lib are build using explicit paths and then kbuild failed.

Thanks to David Mosberger-Tang <David.Mosberger@acm.org> for an explanation
what was the root-cause and for testing on ia64.

This patch also fixes two uses of $(*F) in arch/um
