The dtbs_check should be a phony target, but currently it is not
specified so.
'make dtbs_check' works even if a file named 'dtbs_check' exists
because it depends on another phony target, scripts_dtc, but we
should not rely on it.
Add dtbs_check to PHONY.

Commit bc081dd6e9 ("kbuild: generate modules.builtin") added
infrastructure to generate modules.builtin, the list of all
builtin modules.
Basically, it works like this:
- Kconfig generates include/config/tristate.conf, the list of
tristate CONFIG options with a value in a capital letter.
- scripts/Makefile.modbuiltin makes Kbuild descend into
directories to collect the information of builtin modules.
I am not a big fan of it because Kbuild ends up with traversing
the source tree twice.
I am not sure how perfectly it should work, but this approach cannot
avoid false positives; even if the relevant CONFIG option is tristate,
some Makefiles forces obj-m to obj-y.
Some examples are:
arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile:
obj-$(CONFIG_NVRAM:m=y) += nvram.o
net/ipv6/Makefile:
obj-$(subst m,y,$(CONFIG_IPV6)) += inet6_hashtables.o
net/netlabel/Makefile:
obj-$(subst m,y,$(CONFIG_IPV6)) += netlabel_calipso.o
Nobody has complained about (or noticed) it, so it is probably fine to
have false positives in modules.builtin.
This commit simplifies the implementation. Let's exploit the fact
that every module has MODULE_LICENSE(). (modpost shows a warning if
MODULE_LICENSE is missing. If so, 0-day bot would already have blocked
such a module.)
I added MODULE_FILE to <linux/module.h>. When the code is being compiled
as builtin, it will be filled with the file path of the module, and
collected into modules.builtin.info. Then, scripts/link-vmlinux.sh
extracts the list of builtin modules out of it.
This new approach fixes the false-positives above, but adds another
type of false-positives; non-modular code may have MODULE_LICENSE()
by mistake. This is not a big deal, it is just the code is always
orphan. We can clean it up if we like. You can see cleanup examples by:
$ git log --grep='make.* explicitly non-modular'
To sum up, this commits deletes lots of code, but still produces almost
equivalent results. Please note it does not increase the vmlinux size at
all. As you can see in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h, the .modinfo
section is discarded in the link stage.

Currently, some sanity checks for uapi headers are done by
scripts/headers_check.pl, which is wired up to the 'headers_check'
target in the top Makefile.
It is true compiling headers has better test coverage, but there
are still several headers excluded from the compile test. I like
to keep headers_check.pl for a while, but we can delete a lot of
code by moving the build rule to usr/include/Makefile.

There are both positive and negative options about this feature.
At first, I thought it was a good idea, but actually Linus stated a
negative opinion (https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/29/227). I admit it
is ugly and annoying.
The baseline I'd like to keep is the compile-test of uapi headers.
(Otherwise, kernel developers have no way to ensure the correctness
of the exported headers.)
I will maintain a small build rule in usr/include/Makefile.
Remove the other header test functionality.

Sparse uses the same executable for all archs and uses flags
like -m64, -mbig-endian or -D__arm__ for arch-specific parameters.
But Sparse also uses value from the host machine used to build
Sparse as default value for the target machine.
This works, of course, well for native build but can create
problems when cross-compiling, like defining both '__i386__'
and '__arm__' when cross-compiling for arm on a x86-64 machine.
Fix this by explicitely telling sparse the target architecture.

The modpost, with the -d option given, generates per-module .ns_deps
files.
Kbuild generates per-module .mod files to carry module information.
This is convenient because Make handles multiple jobs in parallel
when the -j option is given.
On the other hand, the modpost always runs as a single thread.
I do not see a strong reason to produce separate .ns_deps files.
This commit changes the modpost to generate just one file,
modules.nsdeps, each line of which has the following format:
<module_name>: <list of missing namespaces>
Please note it contains *missing* namespaces instead of required ones.
So, modules.nsdeps is empty if the namespace dependency is all good.
This will work more efficiently because spatch will no longer process
already imported namespaces. I removed the '(if needed)' from the
nsdeps log since spatch is invoked only when needed.
This also solves the stale .ns_deps problem reported by Jessica Yu:

'make nsdeps' invokes the modpost three times at most; before linking
vmlinux, before building modules, and finally for generating .ns_deps
files. Running the modpost again and again is not efficient.
The last two can be unified. When the -d option is given, the modpost
still does the usual job, and in addition, generates .ns_deps files.

This Kselftest update for Linux 5.4-rc3 consists fixes for existing
tests and the framework. Cristian Marussi's patches add ability to
skip targets (tests) and exclude tests that didn't build from run-list.
These patches improve the Kselftest results. Ability to skip targets
helps avoid running tests that aren't supported in certain environments.
As an example, bpf tests from mainline aren't supported on stable kernels
and have dependency on bleeding edge llvm. Being able to skip bpf on
systems that can't meet this llvm dependency will be helpful.
Kselftest can be built and installed from the main Makefile. This change
help simplify Kselftest use-cases which addresses request from users.
Kees Cook added per test timeout support to limit individual test run-time.

dependency on bleeding edge llvm. Being able to skip bpf on systems
that can't meet this llvm dependency will be helpful.
Kselftest can be built and installed from the main Makefile. This
change help simplify Kselftest use-cases which addresses request from
users.

The cause of the error is 'make nsdeps' does not build modules at all.
Set KBUILD_MODULES to fix it.

Add kselftest-all target to build tests from the top level
Makefile. This is to simplify kselftest use-cases for CI and
distributions where build and test systems are different.
Current kselftest target builds and runs tests on a development
system which is a developer use-case.
Add kselftest-install target to install tests from the top level
Makefile. This is to simplify kselftest use-cases for CI and
distributions where build and test systems are different.
This change addresses requests from developers and testers to add
support for installing kselftest from the main Makefile.
In addition, make the install directory the same when install is
run using "make kselftest-install" or by running kselftest_install.sh.
Also fix the INSTALL_PATH variable conflict between main Makefile and
selftests Makefile.

Commit 40df759e2b ("kbuild: Fix build with binutils <= 2.19")
introduced ar-option and KBUILD_ARFLAGS to deal with old binutils.
According to Documentation/process/changes.rst, the current minimal
supported version of binutils is 2.21 so you can assume the 'D' option
is always supported. Not only GNU ar but also llvm-ar supports it.
With the 'D' option hard-coded, there is no more user of ar-option
or KBUILD_ARFLAGS.

Summary of modules changes for the 5.4 merge window:
- Introduce exported symbol namespaces.
This new feature allows subsystem maintainers to partition and
categorize their exported symbols into explicit namespaces. Module
authors are now required to import the namespaces they need.
Some of the main motivations of this feature include: allowing kernel
developers to better manage the export surface, allow subsystem
maintainers to explicitly state that usage of some exported symbols
should only be limited to certain users (think: inter-module or
inter-driver symbols, debugging symbols, etc), as well as more easily
limiting the availability of namespaced symbols to other parts of the
kernel. With the module import requirement, it is also easier to spot
the misuse of exported symbols during patch review. Two new macros are
introduced: EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(). The API is
thoroughly documented in Documentation/kbuild/namespaces.rst.
- Some small code and kbuild cleanups here and there.

Merge tag 'modules-for-v5.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux
Pull modules updates from Jessica Yu:
"The main bulk of this pull request introduces a new exported symbol
namespaces feature. The number of exported symbols is increasingly
growing with each release (we're at about 31k exports as of 5.3-rc7)
and we currently have no way of visualizing how these symbols are
"clustered" or making sense of this huge export surface.
Namespacing exported symbols allows kernel developers to more
explicitly partition and categorize exported symbols, as well as more
easily limiting the availability of namespaced symbols to other parts
of the kernel. For starters, we have introduced the USB_STORAGE
namespace to demonstrate the API's usage. I have briefly summarized
the feature and its main motivations in the tag below.
