As Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt notes, 'select' should be be used with care - it forces a lower limit of another symbol, ignoring the dependency. Currently, KCOV can select GCC_PLUGINS even if arch does not select HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS. This could cause the unmet direct dependency. Now that Kconfig can test compiler capability, let's handle this in a more sophisticated way. There are two ways to enable KCOV; use the compiler that natively supports -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc, or build the SANCOV plugin if the compiler has ability to build GCC plugins. Hence, the correct dependency for KCOV is: depends on CC_HAS_SANCOV_TRACE_PC || GCC_PLUGINS You do not need to build the SANCOV plugin if the compiler already supports -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc. Hence, the select should be: select GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV if !CC_HAS_SANCOV_TRACE_PC With this, GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV is selected only when necessary, so scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins can be cleaner. I also cleaned up Kconfig and scripts/Makefile.kcov as well. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
