Linux 的编译使用 GNU make 工具来检查整个系统的文件和调用 gcc 工具以及脚本完成编译源代码生成 image 等操作。要了解整个编译系统,我们首先要了解 Linux 内核的 Makefile 文件。
Linux 的 编译系统包括 5 个部分
Makefile
顶层的 Makefile 文件
.config
内核配置文件
arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile
平台 Makefile 文件
scripts/Makefile.*
脚本规则
kbuild Makefiles
大概 500 多个其他的 Makefile 文件
Makefile
查看版本
在内核源代码的根目录有一个 Makefile 文件,这是编译内核的入口,不管执行配置还是编译,make 命令首先读取这个文件。这个文件首先指明了内核的版本:
我们这里是 3.10
VERSION = 3
PATCHLEVEL = 10
SUBLEVEL = 0
EXTRAVERSION =
NAME = Unicycling Gorilla
处理参数
然后处理 command line ,一共有 5 个 command line
V : 设定编译时,输出信息的等级,例如你可以用 make V=1, 查看编译时执行的所有命令,包括 gcc 参数都会打印出来
C : 代码检查,使用 sparse,检查源文件。
M : 指定不在当前目录(外部模块)的编译,也可以指定当前目录的子目录,那么将只会编译子目录的内容
O :指定编译生成的目标文件位置,当设置了 O 参数,内核生成的 obj 和 builtin 文件都会按照目录结构组织到 O 参数指定的目录里面
W: 使能外部 gcc 检查
这几个命令参数,在特定的情况下,将会非常有用,比如我们想编译一个单独的模块就经常使用 M 参数,用 M 指定模块的路径,make 的时候将会不编译整个内核,而编译我们需要的模块:(M 参数会覆盖 KBUILD_EXTMOD 变量)
make M=drivers/misc/ LD drivers/misc/eeprom/built-in.o CC [M] drivers/misc/eeprom/eeprom_93cx6.o LD drivers/misc/built-in.o Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 1 modules CC drivers/misc/eeprom/eeprom_93cx6.mod.o LD [M] drivers/misc/eeprom/eeprom_93cx6.ko
O 参数的指定,会改变整个编译出来的文件的结构,例如哦我们有多个平台要编译,你就需要为每个平台 clone 一份内核代码了,只需要设置不同的输出路径即可:
make O=atmel, make O=asus (O 参数会覆盖 KBUILD_OUTPUT 变量),相应的文件也会生成在目标路径下,例如 uImage 就在 atmel/arch/arm/boot/uImage
获取信息
接下来系统就会获取交叉编译环境和选择不同的 gcc 和 bin 工具集
ARCH ?= $(SUBARCH) CROSS_COMPILE ?= $(CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE:"%"=%)
arch 变量设置目标平台, cross compile 设置交叉编译链。
伪目标
当系统信息获取成功,就可以执行编译命令了,每一个伪目标都可以作为一个编译命令:(大概有 40 个左右的伪目标),但是我们会使用到的并没有这么多,可以用 make help 查看我们使用的编译命令:
make help Cleaning targets: clean - Remove most generated files but keep the config and enough build support to build external modules mrproper - Remove all generated files + config + various backup files distclean - mrproper + remove editor backup and patch files Configuration targets: config - Update current config utilising a line-oriented program nconfig - Update current config utilising a ncurses menu based program menuconfig - Update current config utilising a menu based program xconfig - Update current config utilising a QT based front-end gconfig - Update current config utilising a GTK based front-end oldconfig - Update current config utilising a provided .config as base localmodconfig - Update current config disabling modules not loaded localyesconfig - Update current config converting local mods to core silentoldconfig - Same as oldconfig, but quietly, additionally update deps defconfig - New config with default from ARCH supplied defconfig savedefconfig - Save current config as ./defconfig (minimal config) allnoconfig - New config where all options are answered with no allyesconfig - New config where all options are accepted with yes allmodconfig - New config selecting modules when possible alldefconfig - New config with all symbols set to default randconfig - New config with random answer to all options listnewconfig - List new options olddefconfig - Same as silentoldconfig but sets new symbols to their default value Other generic targets: all - Build all targets marked with [*] * vmlinux - Build the bare kernel * modules - Build all modules modules_install - Install all modules to INSTALL_MOD_PATH (default: /) firmware_install- Install all firmware to INSTALL_FW_PATH (default: $(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/firmware) dir/ - Build all files in dir and below dir/file.[oisS] - Build specified target only dir/file.lst - Build specified mixed source/assembly target only (requires a recent binutils and recent build (System.map)) dir/file.ko - Build module including final link modules_prepare - Set up for building external modules tags/TAGS - Generate tags file for editors cscope - Generate cscope index gtags - Generate GNU GLOBAL index kernelrelease - Output the release version string kernelversion - Output the version stored in Makefile headers_install - Install sanitised kernel headers to INSTALL_HDR_PATH (default: /media/android/jiangxd/workspace/Miura/kernel/usr) Static analysers checkstack - Generate a list of stack hogs namespacecheck - Name space analysis on compiled kernel versioncheck - Sanity check on version.h usage includecheck - Check for duplicate included header files export_report - List the usages of all exported symbols headers_check - Sanity check on exported headers headerdep - Detect inclusion cycles in headers coccicheck - Check with Coccinelle. Kernel packaging: rpm-pkg - Build both source and binary RPM kernel packages binrpm-pkg - Build only the binary kernel package deb-pkg - Build the kernel as a deb package tar-pkg - Build the kernel as an uncompressed tarball targz-pkg - Build the kernel as a gzip compressed tarball tarbz2-pkg - Build the kernel as a bzip2 compressed tarball tarxz-pkg - Build the kernel as a xz compressed tarball perf-tar-src-pkg - Build perf-3.10.0.tar source tarball perf-targz-src-pkg - Build perf-3.10.0.tar.gz source tarball perf-tarbz2-src-pkg - Build perf-3.10.0.tar.bz2 source tarball perf-tarxz-src-pkg - Build perf-3.10.0.tar.xz source tarball Documentation targets: Linux kernel internal documentation in different formats: htmldocs - HTML pdfdocs - PDF psdocs - Postscript xmldocs - XML DocBook mandocs - man pages installmandocs - install man pages generated by mandocs cleandocs - clean all generated DocBook files Architecture specific targets (arm): * zImage - Compressed kernel image (arch/arm/boot/zImage) Image - Uncompressed kernel image (arch/arm/boot/Image) * xipImage - XIP kernel image, if configured (arch/arm/boot/xipImage) uImage - U-Boot wrapped zImage bootpImage - Combined zImage and initial RAM disk (supply initrd image via make variable INITRD=<path>) * dtbs - Build device tree blobs for enabled boards install - Install uncompressed kernel zinstall - Install compressed kernel uinstall - Install U-Boot wrapped compressed kernel Install using (your) ~/bin/installkernel or (distribution) /sbin/installkernel or install to $(INSTALL_PATH) and run lilo
内容非常之多。这里只介绍几个常用的:
make menuconfig 图形化配置 config
make uImage 编译生成 uImage
make clean 删除大部分生成的文件,但是保留配置,以便可以编译模块
make distclean 删除所有生成的文件,补丁和配置,以及一些备份文件
make mrproper 删除所有生成的文件,补丁和配置
总的来说,顶层 Makefile 文件读取 config 文件生成 Linux 的两大目标文件 vmlinux 和 模块文件
