Subject: [PATCH 0/11 v3] enable "make ARCH=x86"

With this patchset the former ARCH=i386 / ARCH=x86_64 are
replaced by ARCH=x86.
The rationale behind the patchset are that with a
unified x86 architecture this should be reflected in
the build commands.

With this patch set the 32/64 bit selection is done
at configuration time like we know it from parisc and
powerpc.

Please pull to your cleanup branch:

ssh://master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sam/x86.git

I leave it to you (x86 maintainers) to decide when to push this to Linus.
But I strongly suggest sooner is better so we finish the build parts
of the x86 unification.

It has been asked: what about "make ARCH=x86_64 allmodconfig"
Here Adrian posted the receipe:

$ cat myconfig
CONFIG_X86_32=n
CONFIG_X86_64=y
$ make allmodconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=myconfig

Not a simple as before but far more powerfull.

The patchset does not only enable ARCH=x86 but is also
a nice cleanup as the diffstat tells us:

15 files changed, 579 insertions(+), 1173 deletions(-)

The majority of the changes are due to the unification
the Kconfig files for 32 and 64 bit.


The shortlog is here:

x86: unification of cfufreq/Kconfig
x86: start unification of arch/x86/Kconfig.*
x86: arch/x86/Kconfig.cpu unification
x86: add X86_32 dependency to i386 specific symbols in Kconfig.i386
x86: add X86_64 dependency to x86_64 specific symbols in Kconfig.x86_64
x86: copy x86_64 specific Kconfig symbols to Kconfig.i386
x86: move all simple arch settings to Kconfig
x86: move the rest of the menu's to Kconfig

The first 8 patches are just unification of the Kconfig files.
All comments from previous postings has been incorporated.

x86: enable "make ARCH=x86"

This is the patch that get rid of ARCH=i386 and ARCH=x86_64
and introduce ARCH=x86.
It touches several files but the changes are all one or two-liners.

x86: drop backward compatibility symlinks to i386/boot and x86_64/boot
kbuild: sanity check the specified arch

The last two patches are nice bonus patches.
The fist kill the symlinks to bzImage.
Now that we changed everything else to x86 there is no reason to
keep the backward compatibility symlinks
It is now people know we are unifying {i386,x86_64}=>x86 so the
will not be too suprised seeing some breakage.
If we do not kill the symlinks now - then when..

The last patch is a simple sanity check that make sure the
specified ARCH is valid - and hints that x86 is now used.


I have doen a limited number of builds here at home - all with success.
And others have reported success with the previous patchset.

Subject: [PATCH 05/11] x86: add X86_64 dependency to x86_64 specific symbols in Kconfig.x86_64

To ease unification of Kconfig.i386 and Kconfig.x86_64
add X86_64 dependencies to all x86_64 specific symbols.

This patch introduce no functional changes but is one step
towards unification. This smaller step is used to ease
review of the patch set.

This step introduces the file arch/x86/Kconfig
which contains all the menu's from "Power Management"
and below.

The main part of the new Kconfig file is shared
and the remaining i386/x86_64 specific symbols
are covered by dependencies.

A x86_64 allmodconfig build did not show any differences.

+ APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
+ techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
+ APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
+ reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
+ battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
+ notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
+
+ If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
+ BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
+
+ Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
+ machines with more than one CPU.
+
+ In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
+ and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
+ Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
+ <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
+
+ This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
+ manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
+ VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
+
+ This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
+ 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
+ desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
+ may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
+
+ Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
+ much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
+ random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
+ anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
+ APM in your BIOS).
+
+ Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
+ "weird" problems:
+
+ 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
+ enabled.
+ 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
+ 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
+ the "no387" option to the kernel
+ 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
+ 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
+ all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
+ 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
+ 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
+ 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
+ 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
+ 10) install a better fan for the CPU
+ 11) exchange RAM chips
+ 12) exchange the motherboard.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the

+ This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a

+
+config APM_DO_ENABLE
+ bool "Enable PM at boot time"
+ ---help---
+ Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
+ specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
+ power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
+ State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
+ This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
+ feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
+ should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
+ will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
+ this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
+ support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
+ this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
+ T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without

+config APM_CPU_IDLE
+ bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
+ help
+ Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
+ On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
+ a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
+ are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
+ 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
+ whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
+ this option does nothing.)
+
+config APM_DISPLAY_BLANK
+ bool "Enable console blanking using APM"
+ help
+ Enable console blanking using the APM. Some laptops can use this to
+ turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux

+ the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
+ when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
+ do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
+ option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
+ backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
+ especially if you are using gpm.

-
- Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
- "weird" problems:
-
- 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
- enabled.
- 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
- 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
- the "no387" option to the kernel
- 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
- 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
- all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
- 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
- 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
- 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
- 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
- 10) install a better fan for the CPU
- 11) exchange RAM chips
- 12) exchange the motherboard.

- This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a

-
-config APM_DO_ENABLE
- bool "Enable PM at boot time"

- Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
- specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
- power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
- State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
- This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
- feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
- should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
- will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
- this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
- support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
- this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
- T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
- this feature.
-
-config APM_CPU_IDLE
- bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
- help
- Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
- On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
- a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
- are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
- 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
- whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
- this option does nothing.)

- the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
- when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
- do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
- option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

- especially if you are using gpm.
-
-config APM_ALLOW_INTS

- help
- Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
- the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving

- needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in

Subject: [PATCH 04/11] x86: add X86_32 dependency to i386 specific symbols in Kconfig.i386

To ease unification of Kconfig.i386 and Kconfig.x86_64
add X86_32 dependencies to all i386 specific symbols.

This patch introduce no functional changes but is one step
towards unification. This smaller step is used to ease
review of the patch set.

Subject: [PATCH 09/11] x86: enable "make ARCH=x86"

After unification of the Kconfig files it required
only trivial changes to enable "make ARCH=x86".
This patch unteach kconfig about SRCARCH and
let kbuild compute x86 for `uname -m` equals x86_64
and the i.86 variants.

The selection of 32 versus 64 bit is now done as a
configuration step like we select SMP, PREMPT etc.

Two drawbacks of this patch:
1) People are used to select 32 versus 64 using ARCH={i386,x86_64}
2) we lost the possibility to generate a true allmodconfig
for a 64 bit x86 kernel with a simple command.

The workaround is to do:
$ cat myconfig
CONFIG_X86_32=n
CONFIG_X86_64=y
$ make allmodconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=myconfig

Lot's of scripts will break because they assume
i386 or x86_64 but with this patch we take the logical
step and name the architecture x86 as one would really expect.

-config MATH_EMULATION

- prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
- ---help---
- Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point

- a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
- a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
- give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
- coprocessor or this emulation.
-
- If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
- say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
- be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
- command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
- is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
- loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
- boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
- intend to use this kernel on different machines.
-
- More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
- emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
-
- If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
- kernel, it won't hurt.

-config MTRR
- bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
- ---help---
- On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
- the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
- processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
- a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
- allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
- before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
- of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
- /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
- MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
-
- This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
- control registers on other processors can be easily supported
- as well:
-
- The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
- Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
- these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
- The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
- MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
- write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
- and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
-
- Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
- set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
- can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
-
- You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
- just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

- but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
- you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
-
- The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.

- It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
- is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not

- Generate crash dump after being started by kexec.
- This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels
- which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into
- a specially reserved region and then later executed after
- a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
- to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using
- PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image
- (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y).
- For more details see Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
-
-config PHYSICAL_START

- default "0x1000000" if X86_NUMAQ
- default "0x200000" if X86_64
- default "0x100000"
- help
- This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
-
- If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
- bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
- run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
- it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
- address.
-
- In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
- as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
- (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
- address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
- to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
- vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
- to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
- (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
-
- So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
- the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
- Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
- change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
- 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
- specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
- passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
- crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
- Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
-
- Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
- one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
- as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
- gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
- is present because there are users out there who continue to use
- vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
- line.
-
- Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.
-
-config RELOCATABLE

- but are discarded at runtime.
-
- One use is for the kexec on panic case where the recovery kernel
- must live at a different physical address than the primary
- kernel.
-
- Note: If CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, then the kernel runs from the address
- it has been loaded at and the compile time physical address
- (CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START) is ignored.

- help
- This value puts the alignment restrictions on physical address
- where kernel is loaded and run from. Kernel is compiled for an
- address which meets above alignment restriction.
-
- If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
- CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, kernel will move itself to nearest
- address aligned to above value and run from there.
-
- If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
- CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set, kernel will ignore the run time
- load address and decompress itself to the address it has been
- compiled for and run from there. The address for which kernel is
- compiled already meets above alignment restrictions. Hence the
- end result is that kernel runs from a physical address meeting
- above alignment restrictions.

IMO it negatives impacts the workflow when you -remove- the ability to
set 32/64-bit on the make command line.

Building and testing for both architectures now requires the additional
step of editing .config, which is a clear workflow negative impact at
least for me.

I switch between other cross-compiled arches (alpha, usually) on the
makefile command line

Yes, I know other 32/64-bit arches require .config editing. That
doesn't change the basic fact that this is a workflow regression.

With KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG you can avoid the editing of the .config and set
32/64-bit on the make command line - and it's not limited to the
32/64-bit choice:

$ cat /home/jeff/myi386config
CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G=y
CONFIG_X86_32=y
CONFIG_SMP=n
CONFIG_PCI=n
CONFIG_IPV6=m
$ make allyesconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=/home/jeff/myi386config

You can use:

make i386_defconfig
make x86_64_defconfig

In any other case you'd be editing the .config anyways.

Does that work for alpha too?

No, that's a logic rathole down which I will not follow :)

You can make any argument along those lines command line usage is really
an art, not a science. Its a user interface, and that involves human
taste rather than logic.

I've been bouncing between architectures using ARCH= for years, and my
fingers and brain have been trained. It's just disappointing and a pain
to change this nice user interface that has served so well for years.

This is /not/ a cleanup, it's a user interface change.

When it was decided to unify i386 and x86_64 it was at the same time
decided to handle them as a *single* architecture.

Keeping ARCH=i386 and ARCH=x86_64 around is just a way to pretend
this is two diffrent architectures which is no longer the case.

Do we need a way to say "build a kernel that is 64 bit"?
If we need this then we should look at the most intuitive way
to say so and this should work across x86, powerpc and s390.

make 64BIT=y ARCH=x86

looks so much more intuitive. And it is generic.
This is just a proposal.

But lets focus on finding a generic solution and not try
to hang around in old habbits.


I can certainly look into enabling a generic syntax but
that is a bit down on my TODO list (and most items above
this has something to do with the kids and not Linux btw).

If we go for the proposed syntax then it
should be a matter of teaching kconfig to look for
"64BIT" and set the 64BIT symbol accordingly.
And thenthe Kconfig files needs to be modified
so the they use "64BIT" to select between kernel
bit size.

I agree. So long as you can do it easily on the commandline, it's
no problem, and we should be consistent (in calling the arch x86).

If you do that, then things like randconfigs will randomly break if you
happen to use a toolchain targetted specifically at i386 or so.

randconfigs are pretty useful for testing, it would be nice to have a
facility to keep these working without having to have a script grep the
.config to figure out which toolchain prefix to use.

This is one of the things I've been wondering about with an sh/sh64
unification, as we have no option but having completely different
toolchains, and CONFIG_64BIT=y won't work there when they are both
using a 32-bit ABI.

They _are_ different in the real world... that's why

make ARCH=i386

is so often used.

Or the short and straightforward

make ARCH=x86_64

to do the same thing (and incidentally what we've been doing up until
this point).

Don't get so hung up on "architecture" and actually look at what people
do _today_.

All other solutions proposed are simply _longer_ ways to do exact the
same thing. "more work for same outcome" isn't optimal.

IMO it seems like you ought to be able to do

make ARCH=sh
or
make ARCH=sh64

and have it do the right thing. Ditto for ppc/ppc64, etc.

Sane, straightforward, simple, consistent with existing practice...

Indeed, that's what I was intending on keeping around as a convention,
and simply overloading SRCARCH for the sh64 case. i386/x86_64 potentially
has the same issue though, and if the intent is to have a single ARCH for
both of them, I don't see how that would possibly work without
sacrificing randconfig.. unless the intended x86 convention is that one
compiler will happily handle both i386 and x86_64 without any difficulty?

The idea of a single SRCARCH and differing ARCHs for adjusting the build
semantics as we have now is quite straightforward and seems clean enough
without pushing for ARCH unification.

If you want to know how to restrict randconfig to CONFIG_X86_32 with an
unified architecture you should either read the toplevel README in the
kernel sources or an older email of mine in this thread...

Excpet that setting ARCH=... imply more than the 32/64 bit choice.
One other thing is that using ARCH=xxx64 tells people
that the kernel is located in arch/xxx64/boot/

So what is it we want ARCH=xxx to say?
a) the exact architecture to use? (seems not)
b) a good hint about the architecture and a 32/64 bit selector (seems so)
c) part of the location of the build kernel (not discussed)
d) output of `uname -m` (?)

ARCH=xxx
is used for more than the 32/64 bit selection mechanish.
It is in fact an overloaded interface selecting several
things in one go.


And it is not even used consistent across the linux kernel.
Some use it for their generic architecture and later
decide on the bit size. Other let it imply the bit size.

In general a confusing thing that we are now getting used to.

In an not opposed to keep ARCH={i386,x86_64} but then we should
establish clear semantics.
What does it imply when I build a kernel with ARCH=i386?
- 32 bit, build kernel, uname -m

and what about the intuitive version: make ARCH=x86
Is this a 32 or 64 bit kernel?

How do we in a generic way say "this is a 64 bt kernel"?
Something that works equally well for s390, ppc, sh, sparc etc?

make ARCH=s39064 looks bad...
make ARCH=sh64 looks OK...

I for one use i386 simply because I do not have any computer that would
support 64bit. But when I'll see a 32/64bit question during
"make oldconfig" I'll also know what to answer.

Let's check who the "people" affected are:

Aunt Tillie isn't affected since she doesn't compile her own kernel.

People compiling kernels have to learn that the choice went from
ARCH={i386,x86_64} to a Kconfig option. I'd say it's more consistent
that the 32/64bit question is now handled the same way as the
K6/K7/K8/... question. And there doesn't seem to be any "longer" or
"more work" in this case.

What's left are kernel developers who have not read the toplevel README
and who do therefore not know about KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG. Getting people to
write documentation is a hard task, but it's only second to getting
people to read documentation....

And although you might argue that you have a few characters more to type
when using KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG it has the advantage that it's generic,
and it e.g. allows you to create a CONFIG_X86_32=y, CONFIG_SMP=n
allyesconfig configuration.

as a user I think it would be a good idea to keep the i386/x86_64 options
around for a few kernel revisions to maintain compatibilty with people's
build scripts (not everyone upgrades every kernel release. I've been
running kernel.org kernels in production for over 10 years and between the
scheduler changes in .23 and the arch merge in .24 even I'm going to be
very cautious until .25 or .26 fleshes out all the gotchas, although the
per-device buffer work is valuble enough that a couple systems will get
it soon)

you also need a transition for make oldconfig for several versions

i386 should imply 32 bit and the old CPU i386 options
x86_64 should imply 64 bit and the old amd_64 cpu options

> and what about the intuitive version: make ARCH=x86
> Is this a 32 or 64 bit kernel?

unknown, which cpu did you select to compile it for? and in the case of
cpus that support both modes, which one did you select? I don't know if
it makes sense to just list K8-32 and K8-64 as seperate cpu options in one
menu or to have a 32/64 bit switch and then two seperate cpu menus (I
suspect the first is better in the long run) but either way can work.

why do you need to have it as a specific command-line option instead of
being part of your cpu selection?

and isn't there something like march=686 that could be extended to
march=k8-32 vs march=k8-64?

march=s390-64 or s390-32 doesn't look nearly as bad as s39064 that you
listed above.

I'll second that request. We should finish off the user-visible parts
of the merge in one release (2.6.24).

Well, that *is* the normal thing on x86.

HOWEVER, I think the right thing for allyesconfig, allmodconfig,
randconfig, etc. is to be able to override specific variables. Right
now, one has to use indirection via a file, which is a bit clumsy; it
would be better if one could do "make allyesconfig CONFIG_X86_64=y" or
somesuch.

In fact, we should be able to get rid of ARCH entirely; CONFIG_ options
have the huge advantage that they're saved in a file, and you don't have
to type them on every make run. The only option that I can't see us
getting rid of easily is HOSTCC, since it is used before config is run,
but probably something clever can be done there, too.

My long term plan is to enable the above.
I had planned to do a lot for 2.6.25 but all this x86 stuff have eaten
too much time. And I have plenty of kbuild stuff in my
inbox awaiting some attention...

Yes, please! One of the more annoying things is forgetting the
ARCH=um when rebuilding UML. It would be awfully nice if ARCH was set
via a CONFIG_ option and was persistent.

This should have been fixed, or it's about to be fixed. My patch is here:
http://groups.google.com/group/linux.kernel/browse_thread/thread/93e5c33fc6e8cff6/39aff558a636ad02
(This patch was superseded by another patch, which may be delayed or mm-only.)

OTOH, if you can implement ARCH= using CONFIG_ARCH, why not? Just don't forget
to keep the scripts running, and make randconfig only select buildable archs.

This was discussed before [1] and the result then was that the symlinks
should be kept for a while (Alan even suggested "a couple of years").
In fact, they were added exactly for that reason.

For one thing, this change is known to break Debian kernel builds using
kernel-package, a method I use myself to build from current git for testing.
I have so far not filed a bug report against kernel-package because there
was still discussion going on as to how things would look and IMO it's
better to change build tools once things have been finalized then trying to
keep up with a moving target.

Breaking kernel-package (and possibly other similar tools) by removing the
compat symlinks too early may mean less testing of kernels by people like me.

Cheers,
Frans Pop

P.S. The ARCH=x86 change would not have broken kernel-package as that could
be worked around using its cross-compilation options. And it currently looks
like the old options will be preserved anyway.

I disagree that this is a regression. You can still bounce between archs
as before, but the fact is that these are not separate archs anymore. The
sooner we'll get used to the fact the better.
You also don't bounce between archs just by changing ARCH, you also have
to reconfigure the kernel and that's there you can change the 64bit
option. This means for the normal user not much is changing and from an
experienced user I'd expect to know the difference.

If we look at this as a new feature, we have to look at what is needed to
support this properly. Should the arch name imply certain config options?
This wouldn't have to be limited to 64BIT - SMP or MMU could be other
options. I think it would also make sense to hide the corresponding config
option, otherwise one could change an option, which is a little later
ignored anyway. Another question would be if and how it affects other
information like uname information.

What I'd like to avoid is to add potential cruft, which is only used to
avoid the inevitable to properly learn how to configure the kernel. A user
interface has a lot to do with logic, especially consistency - an
inconsistent mess also doesn't taste very good.
