Basic implementation of 'make headers_install' This adds a make target which exports a subset of headers which contain definitions which are useful for system libraries and tools. It uses the BSD 'unifdef' tool to remove instances of #ifdef __KERNEL__, and uses sed to remove markers like __user. Based on an original implementation by Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Hacked about by David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Reviewed and cleaned up by Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

kbuild: optimize headers_* targets Move the core functionality of headers_install and headers_check to two small perl scripts. The makefile is adapted to use the perl scrip and changed to operate on all files in a directory. So if one file is changed then all files in the directory is processed. perl were chosen for the helper scripts because this is pure text processing which perl is good at and especially the headers_check.pl script are expected to see changes / new checks implmented. The speed is ~300% faster on this box. And the output generated to the screen is now down to two lines per directory (one for install, one for check) so it is easier to scroll back after a kernel build. The perl scripts has been brought to sanity by patient feedback from: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

kbuild: optimize headers_* targets Move the core functionality of headers_install and headers_check to two small perl scripts. The makefile is adapted to use the perl scrip and changed to operate on all files in a directory. So if one file is changed then all files in the directory is processed. perl were chosen for the helper scripts because this is pure text processing which perl is good at and especially the headers_check.pl script are expected to see changes / new checks implmented. The speed is ~300% faster on this box. And the output generated to the screen is now down to two lines per directory (one for install, one for check) so it is easier to scroll back after a kernel build. The perl scripts has been brought to sanity by patient feedback from: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

kbuild: always unifdef files in headers_install* unifdef utility is fast enough to warrant that we always run the scripts through unifdef. This patch runs all headers listed with header-y and unifdef-y through unifdef. Next step is to drop unifdef-y in all Kbuild files and that can now be done in smaller steps.

Basic implementation of 'make headers_install' This adds a make target which exports a subset of headers which contain definitions which are useful for system libraries and tools. It uses the BSD 'unifdef' tool to remove instances of #ifdef __KERNEL__, and uses sed to remove markers like __user.
