In my view, most of headers can be self-contained. So, it would be tedious to add every header to header-test-y explicitly. We usually end up with "all headers with some exceptions". There are two types in exceptions: [1] headers that are never compiled as standalone units For examples, include/linux/compiler-gcc.h is not intended for direct inclusion. We should always exclude such ones. [2] headers that are conditionally compiled as standalone units Some headers can be compiled only for particular architectures. For example, include/linux/arm-cci.h can be compiled only for arm/arm64 because it requires <asm/arm-cci.h> to exist. Clang can compile include/soc/nps/mtm.h only for arc because it contains an arch-specific register in inline assembler. So, you can write Makefile like this: header-test- += linux/compiler-gcc.h header-test-$(CONFIG_ARM) += linux/arm-cci.h header-test-$(CONFIG_ARM64) += linux/arm-cci.h header-test-$(CONFIG_ARC) += soc/nps/mtm.h The new syntax header-test-pattern-y will be useful to specify "the rest". The typical usage is like this: header-test-pattern-y += */*.h This will add all the headers in sub-directories to the test coverage, excluding $(header-test-). In this regards, header-test-pattern-y behaves like a weaker variant of header-test-y. Caveat: The patterns in header-test-pattern-y are prefixed with $(srctree)/$(src)/ but not $(objtree)/$(obj)/. Stale generated headers are often left over when you traverse the git history without cleaning. Wildcard patterns for $(objtree) may match to stale headers, which could fail to compile. One pitfall is $(srctree)/$(src)/ and $(objtree)/$(obj)/ point to the same directory for in-tree building. So, header-test-pattern-y should be used with care since it can potentially match to stale headers. Caveat2: You could use wildcard for header-test-. For example, header-test- += asm-generic/% ... will exclude headers in asm-generic directory. Unfortunately, the wildcard character is '%' instead of '*' here because this is evaluated by $(filter-out ...) whereas header-test-pattern-y is evaluated by $(wildcard ...). This is a kludge, but seems useful in some places... Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Tested-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> |
