Subject[PATCH 03/16] kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace programs
Date
Kbuild supports the infrastructure to build host programs, but there
was no support to build userspace programs for the target architecture
(i.e. the same architecture as the kernel).

Sam Ravnborg worked on this a long time ago.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/13/154

But, it was not merged. One problem at that time was, there was no
good way to know whether $(CC) can link standalone programs. In fact,
pre-built kernel.org toolchains [1] do not provide libc.

Now, we can handle this cleanly because the compiler capability is
evaluated at the Kconfig time. If $(CC) cannot link standalone programs,
the relevant options are hidden by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK'.

The implementation just mimics scripts/Makefile.host

The userspace programs are compiled with the same flags as the host
programs. In addition, it uses -m32 or -m64 if it is found in
$(KBUILD_CFLAGS).

This new syntax has at least two usecases.

- Sample programs

Several userspace programs under samples/ include UAPI headers
installed in usr/include. Most of them were previously built for
the host architecture just to use 'hostprogs' syntax.

However, 'make headers' always works for the target architecture.
This caused the arch mismatch in cross-compiling. To fix this
distortion, sample code should be built for the target architecture.

- Bpfilter

net/bpfilter/Makefile compiles bpfilter_umh as the user mode helper,
and embeds it into the kernel code. Currently, it overrides HOSTCC
with CC to use the 'hostprogs' syntax. This hack should go away.
