[PATCH v2 3/8] kbuild: move core-y and drivers-y to ./Kbuild

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Tue Sep 06 2022 - 02:14:27 EST


Use the ordinary obj-y to list subdirectories.

Note1:
GNU Make seems to transform './.modules.order' to '.modules.order'
before matching it against the target pattern. Split ./.modules.order
to a dedicated rule to avoid "doesn't match the target pattern"
warning. [1]

Note2:
Previously, the link order of lib-y depended on CONFIG_MODULES; lib-y
was linked before drivers-y when CONFIG_MODULES=y, otherwise after
drivers-y. This was a bug of commit 7273ad2b08f8 ("kbuild: link lib-y
objects to vmlinux forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=y"), but it was not a
big deal after all. Now, libs-y (all objects that come from lib/ and
arch/*/lib/) is linked last, irrespective of CONFIG_MODULES.

Note3:
Now, the single target build in arch/*/lib/ works correctly. There was
a bug report about this. [2]

$ make ARCH=arm arch/arm/lib/findbit.o
CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh
AS arch/arm/lib/findbit.o

Changes in v2:
- Move all core-y and drivers-y
- Fix single target build
