Some architectures embed boot DTBs in vmlinux. A potential issue for these architectures is a race condition during parallel builds because Kbuild descends into arch/*/boot/dts/ twice. One build thread is initiated by the 'dtbs' target, which is a prerequisite of the 'all' target in the top-level Makefile: ifdef CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE all: dtbs endif For architectures that support the built-in boot dtb, arch/*/boot/dts/ is visited also during the ordinary directory traversal in order to build obj-y objects that wrap DTBs. Since these build threads are unaware of each other, they can run simultaneously during parallel builds. This commit introduces a generic build rule to scripts/Makefile.vmlinux to support embedded boot DTBs in a race-free way. Architectures that want to use this rule need to select CONFIG_GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB. After the migration, Makefiles under arch/*/boot/dts/ will be visited only once to build only *.dtb files. This change also aims to unify the CONFIG options used for built-in DTBs support. Currently, different architectures use different CONFIG options for the same purposes. With this commit, the CONFIG options will be unified as follows: - CONFIG_GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB This enables the generic rule for built-in boot DTBs. This will be renamed to CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB after all architectures migrate to the generic rule. - CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME This specifies the path to the embedded DTB. (relative to arch/*/boot/dts/) - CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_ALL If this is enabled, all DTB files compiled under arch/*/boot/dts/ are embedded into vmlinux. Only used by MIPS.
