[Patch v3 1/3] dt: OF_UNITTEST make dependency broken, framework fixes

From: Frank Rowand
Date: Thu Mar 12 2015 - 09:16:06 EST


From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This 3 patch series is not bisectable. If CONFIG_OF_UNITTEST=y then the kernel
will not build with just patch 1 or just patches 1 and 2 applied.

If CONFIG_OF_UNITTEST=y then a kernel image make will always cause .version to
be incremented, even if there are not source changes. This is caused by
a lack of dependency tracking and checking for
drivers/of/unittest-data/testcases.dtb.o. Fixing the problem was made more
complicated by the fact that testcases.dtb.o was linked into ../of_unittest.o.

Patch 1 modifies makefiles to move of_unittest.c into unittest-data/ and
creates missing dependency tracking for testcases.dtb.o.

Patch 2 will move of_unittest.c into unittest-data/

Patch 3 will fix an of_unittest.c include path to account for the move.

changes since version 2:

patch 1:
Add .gitignore so that generated files will not get committed.

changes since version 1:

patch 1:
Remove some changes to scripts/Makefile.lib that are not needed. They
were left over from attempts to fix the problem without moving of_unitest.c
into unittest-data/.
