Linux内核Makefile.build构建外部模块时的奇怪行为

我需要一些KBuild实施细节建议,这些建议与构建外部模块有关。

Linux Kernel 5.0.0-32

这是我的LKM Makefile:

obj-m += pfsw.o
pfsw-objs := src/init.o

all:
    make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules

看一下scripts/Makefile.build的实现并使用-d选项打印调试输出,我发现正在执行的该Makefile的目标是__build

__build: $(if $(KBUILD_BUILTIN),$(builtin-target) $(lib-target) $(extra-y)) \
     $(if $(KBUILD_MODULES),$(obj-m) $(modorder-target)) \
     $(subdir-ym) $(always)
    @:

由于我正在构建外部LKM,因此前提条件是$(obj-m)$(modorder-target)。我从数据库中获得了它们的值:

obj-m := /home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/pfsw.o
modorder-target := /home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/modules.order

因此,要执行__build,必须先构建先决条件/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/pfsw.oMakefile.build中定义了以下$(obj)/%.o:模式规则:

$(obj)/%.o: $(src)/%.c $(recordmcount_source) $(objtool_dep) FORCE
    $(call cmd,force_checksrc)
    $(call if_changed_rule,cc_o_c)

我添加了调试输出以打印目标自动变量的名称:

$(obj)/%.o: $(src)/%.c $(recordmcount_source) $(objtool_dep) FORCE
    @echo "$@"
    $(call cmd,force_checksrc)
    $(call cmd,force_check_kmsg)
    $(call if_changed_rule,cc_o_c)

,并预期将打印/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/pfsw.o,但实际上已打印/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/src/init.o。 看起来有些神奇...

问题:为什么构建目标/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/pfsw.o会导致构建/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/src/init.o?该代码在哪里指定?

我知道有一个real-obj-m变量正好包含该值,但是grep在代码库中,我并没有发现它取决于某些东西...

正如@Tsyvarev在评论中所暗示的,有一条从其obj-m构建-objs的规则。

分析行为时,我错误地考虑了一个隐式模式规则来构建obj-m,在我的情况下,该规则会扩展为/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/pfsw.o。使用make -p运行构建,可能会在输出中注意到以下条目:

/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/pfsw.o: FORCE /home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/src/init.o

#  recipe to execute (from 'scripts/Makefile.build', line 474):
    $(call if_changed,link_multi-m)
    @{ echo $(@:.o=.ko); echo $(filter %.o,$^); \
       $(cmd_undef_syms); } > $(MODVERDIR)/$(@F:.o=.mod)

因此,有一条非隐式规则指定要构建的配方/home/memyself/lkm/procfs_write_perm/pfsw.o,这意味着对于该特定情况,不应考虑隐式规则$(obj)/%.o:

上面指定的make数据库条目还包含要执行的配方的行号和其来源文件。在这种情况下

recipe to execute (from 'scripts/Makefile.build', line 474):

指向scripts/Makefile.build条目,在我的情况下为

$(multi-used-m): FORCE
    $(call if_changed,link_multi-m) # <------ This is the line the database points to
    @{ echo $(@:.o=.ko); echo $(filter %.o,$^); \
       $(cmd_undef_syms); } > $(MODVERDIR)/$(@F:.o=.mod)
$(call multi_depend, $(multi-used-m), .o, -objs -y -m)
