e8939222dc Documentation: add script and build target to check for broken file references
Add a simple script and build target to do a treewide grep for
references to files under Documentation, and report the non-existing
file in stderr. It tries to take into account punctuation not part of
the filename, and wildcards, but there are bound to be false positives
too. Mostly seems accurate though.

We've moved files around enough to make having this worthwhile.

df85b2d767 firmware: Restore support for built-in firmware
Commit 5620a0d1aa ("firmware: delete in-kernel firmware") removed the
entire firmware directory.  Unfortunately it thereby also removed the
support for built-in firmware.

This restores the ability to build firmware directly into the kernel by
pruning the original Makefile to the necessary minimum.  The default for
EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR is now the standard directory /lib/firmware/.

b38923a068 Firmware removal patch for 4.14-rc1
Many many years ago (at the kernel summit in Boston), we all came to the
 agreement that the firmware/ tree should be dropped from the kernel, and
 everyone use the linux-firmware package instead.  For some minor reason,
 David Woodhouse didn't send the pull request at that point in time, and
 everyone forgot about this.
 
 The topic came up in the hallway track at the Plumbers conference this
 week, so here's a single patch that drops the whole firmware tree.  The
 last firmware update was back in 2013, and all distros have been using
 linux-firmware instead since at least that year, if not before.  The
 only commits to that directory since 2013 was some kbuild fixups for
 various build tool issues.
 
 So lets finally drop this, we don't need to lug them around in the
 kernel source tree anymore, especially as no one wants or uses them.
 
 This has passed build testing with 0-day, I don't think it made it into
 linux-next this week, but I figured it was good to get in before
 4.14-rc1 was out.

8e9b466799 kbuild: use $(abspath ...) instead of $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd)
Kbuild conventionally uses $(shell cd ... && /bin/pwd) idiom to get
the absolute path of the directory because GNU Make 3.80, the minimal
supported version at that time, did not support $(abspath ...) or
$(realpath ...).

Commit 37d69ee308 ("docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81")
dropped the GNU Make 3.80 support, so we are now allowed to use those
make-builtin helpers.

This conversion will provide better portability without relying on
the pwd command or its location /bin/pwd.

I am intentionally using $(realpath ...) instead $(abspath ...) in
some places.  The difference between the two is $(realpath ...)
returns an empty string if the given path does not exist.  It is
convenient in places where we need to error-out if the makefile fails
to create an output directory.

8c97023cf0 Kbuild: use -fshort-wchar globally
Commit 971a69db7d ("Xen: don't warn about 2-byte wchar_t in efi")
added the --no-wchar-size-warning to the Makefile to avoid this
harmless warning:

arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: warning: drivers/xen/efi.o uses 2-byte wchar_t yet the output is to use 4-byte wchar_t; use of wchar_t values across objects may fail

Changing kbuild to use thin archives instead of recursive linking
unfortunately brings the same warning back during the final link.

The kernel does not use wchar_t string literals at this point, and
xen does not use wchar_t at all (only efi_char16_t), so the flag
has no effect, but as pointed out by Jan Beulich, adding a wchar_t
string literal would be bad here.

Since wchar_t is always defined as u16, independent of the toolchain
default, always passing -fshort-wchar is correct and lets us
remove the Xen specific hack along with fixing the warning.

bd664f6b3e disable new gcc-7.1.1 warnings for now
I made the mistake of upgrading my desktop to the new Fedora 26 that
comes with gcc-7.1.1.

There's nothing wrong per se that I've noticed, but I now have 1500
lines of warnings, mostly from the new format-truncation warning
triggering all over the tree.

We use 'snprintf()' and friends in a lot of places, and often know that
the numbers are fairly small (ie a controller index or similar), but gcc
doesn't know that, and sees an 'int', and thinks that it could be some
huge number.  And then complains when our buffers are not able to fit
the name for the ten millionth controller.

These warnings aren't necessarily bad per se, and we probably want to
look through them subsystem by subsystem, but at least during the merge
window they just mean that I can't even see if somebody is introducing
any *real* problems when I pull.

So warnings disabled for now.

98ced886dd Kbuild thin archives updates for v4.13
Thin archives migration by Nicholas Piggin.
 
 THIN_ARCHIVES has been available for a while as an optional feature
 only for PowerPC architecture, but we do not need two different
 intermediate-artifact schemes.
 
 Using thin archives instead of conventional incremental linking has
 various advantages:
  - save disk space for builds
  - speed-up building a little
  - fix some link issues (for example, allyesconfig on ARM) due to
    more flexibility for the final linking
  - work better with dead code elimination we are planning
 
 As discussed before, this migration has been done unconditionally
 so that any problems caused by this will show up with "git bisect".
 
 With testing with 0-day and linux-next, some architectures actually
 showed up problems, but they were trivial and all fixed now.

 "Thin archives migration by Nicholas Piggin.

  THIN_ARCHIVES has been available for a while as an optional feature
  only for PowerPC architecture, but we do not need two different
  intermediate-artifact schemes.

  Using thin archives instead of conventional incremental linking has
  various advantages:

   - save disk space for builds

   - speed-up building a little

   - fix some link issues (for example, allyesconfig on ARM) due to more
     flexibility for the final linking

   - work better with dead code elimination we are planning

  As discussed before, this migration has been done unconditionally so
  that any problems caused by this will show up with "git bisect".

  With testing with 0-day and linux-next, some architectures actually
  showed up problems, but they were trivial and all fixed now"

3a166fc2d4 kbuild: handle libs-y archives separately from built-in.o archives
The thin archives build currently puts all lib.a and built-in.o
files together and links them with --whole-archive.

This works because thin archives can recursively refer to thin
archives. However some architectures include libgcc.a, which may
not be a thin archive, or it may not be constructed with the "P"
option, in which case its contents do not get linked correctly.

So don't pull .a libs into the root built-in.o archive. These
libs should already have symbol tables and indexes built, so they
can be direct linker inputs. Move them out of the --whole-archive
option, which restore the conditional linking behaviour of lib.a
to thin archives builds.

9f3f1fd299 kbuild: Add __cc-option macro
cc-option uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_CPPFLAGS when it determines
whether an option is supported or not. This is fine for options used to
build the kernel itself, however some components like the x86 boot code
use a different set of flags.

Add the new macro __cc-option which is a more generic version of
cc-option with additional parameters. One parameter is the compiler
with which the check should be performed, the other the compiler options
to be used instead KBUILD_C*FLAGS.

Refactor cc-option and hostcc-option to use __cc-option and move
hostcc-option to scripts/Kbuild.include.

f8224f7f48 kbuild: remove duplicated arch/*/include/generated/uapi include path
Commit 90ac086bca ("Makefile: include arch/*/include/generated/uapi
before .../generated") introduced this for bisect'ability.  The commit
chose to promote arch/*/include/generated/uapi in the search path
rather than cleaning stale headers.

After all, we found that approach was not enough, and ended up with
cleaning stale headers by commit cda2c65f98 ("kbuild: Remove stale
asm-generic wrappers").

So, the extra search path is no longer needed because Kbuild invokes
scripts/Makefile.asm-generic and remove stale headers before it starts
descending.

This commit is also reverting commit dc33db7c33 ("Kbuild: avoid
duplicate include path") because we have no more duplicated path.

6f0fa58e45 kbuild: simplify silent build (-s) detection
This allows to detect -s (--silent) option without checking GNU Make
version.

As commit e36aaea289 ("kbuild: Fix silent builds with make-4")
pointed out, GNU Make 4.x changed the way/order it presents the
command line options into MAKEFLAGS.

In Make 3.8x, 's' is always the first in a group of short options.
The group may be prefixed with '-' in some cases.

In Make 4.x, 's' is always the last in a group of short options.

As commit e6ac89fabd ("kbuild: Correctly deal with make options
which contain an 's'") addressed, we also need to deal with long
options that contain 's', like --warn-undefined-variables.

Test cases:

[1] command line input:    make --silent
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x:    s
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x :    s

[2] command line input:    make -srR
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x:    sRr
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x :    rRs

[3] command line input:    make -s -rR --warn-undefined-variables
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x:    --warn-undefined-variables -sRr
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x :    rRs --warn-undefined-variables

My idea to cater to all the cases more easily is to filter out long
options (--%), then search 's' with $(findstring ...).  This way will
be more future-proof even if future versions of Make put 's' in the
middle of the group.

It also adjusts some Sphinx-pedantic errors/warnings on

05d8cba4a1 kbuild: skip install/check of headers right under uapi directories
Since commit 61562f981e ("uapi: export all arch specifics
directories"), "make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=$root/usr headers_install"
deletes standard glibc headers and others in $(root)/usr/include.

The cause of the issue is that headers_install now starts descending
from arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi with $(root)/usr/include for its
destination when installing asm headers.  So, headers already there
are assumed to be unwanted.

When headers_install starts descending from include/uapi with
$(root)/usr/include for its destination, it works around the problem
by creating an dummy destination $(root)/usr/include/uapi, but this
is tricky.

To fix the problem in a clean way is to skip headers install/check
in include/uapi and arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi because we know
there are only sub-directories in uapi directories.  A good side
effect is the empty destination $(root)/usr/include/uapi will go
away.

I am also removing the trailing slash in the headers_check target to
skip checking in arch/$(hdr-arch)/include/uapi.
