[RFC] Kbuild: allow code re-use across different directories

Hi folks,
The attached patch modify Kbuild to allow to directly re-use code in multiple
directory without having to go through a copy. Technically, it changes Kbuild to
use by default the VPATH feature of GNU make and provides accessors for Makefile
to change it indirectly.
Considering:
arch/foo/lib:
fancy.c
We want to be able to build it with -DPANTS=32 in the kernel, but the
bootloader requires -DPANTS_SIZE=30.
Currently we would do, either:
arch/foo/lib/Makefile
LDFLAGS_fancy.o := -DPANTS=32
obj-y += fancy.o
and, either:
arch/foo/boot/Makefile:
LDFLAGS_fancy.o := -DPANTS=30
obj-y += fancy.o
$(obj)/fancy.c: $(srctree)/arch/foo/lib/fancy.c
$(call cmd,shipped)
or
arch/foo/boot/Makefile:
LDFLAGS_fancy.o := -DPANTS=30
obj-y += fancy.o
$(obj)/fancy.o: $(srctree)/arch/foo/lib/fancy.c
$(call cmd,cc_c_o)
The former implies an extra copy of the source file, the latter expose Kbuild
internal function.
With the attached patch, we would do:
arch/foo/boot/Makefile:
LDFLAGS_fancy.o := -DPANTS=30
obj-y += fancy.o
vpath-y += $(srctree)/arch/foo/lib
and let GNU make do the job.
Comments welcome,
- Arnaud
