While adding more functionality to s390's decompressor code and looking
at other architectures implementation there is an apparent need to
reuse some code outside of arch/*/boot folder (files like lib/ctype.c,
lib/cmdline.c and others). On s390 there is a need to rebuild and reuse
few additional files to print out early error messages (console support,
ebcdic, arch/s390/lib/mem.S). This list will be extended with additional
features implementation (like kaslr, etc).
Current solution seems to be reverse including source files, which is
ugly. The following patch proposes another way to address that problem,
which in the end would we used like:
in some arch/*/boot/Makefile:
obj-y := ctype.o cmdline.o mem.o ..some local files..
SRCDIR_ctype.o := lib
SRCDIR_cmdline.o := lib
SRCDIR_mem.o := arch/s390/lib

With kbuild there is no easy way to re-compile source files from another
directory, which is required for the decompressor on some platforms
(files like lib/ctype.c, lib/cmdline.c, etc). Writing custom build
rules for those files is not feasible since original rules are complex
and kbuild functions and variables are not exposed.
The simplest solution is to reverse include source files either into
existing files or separate files. That eliminates the need to tackle
with the kbuild rules, but is ugly.
Here is another solution to that problem, utilizing secondary expansion.
Build rules are in a form:
$(obj)/%.o: $(src)/%.c ...
$(obj)/%.o: $(src)/%.S ...
"src" variable could be changed to cover the need of specifying alternate
source file directory.
src := $(if $(SRCDIR_$(@F)),$(SRCDIR_$(@F)),$(src))
So, if there is SRCDIR_<target> set, it will be used, original "src" is
used otherwise. But that wouldn't work as it is. To be able to utilize
automatic variables in implicit prerequisite secondary expansion has to
be used and src value has to be additionally escaped.
Alternate src dir then could be specified in Makefile as:
obj-y := file1.o file2.o
SRCDIR_file1.o := file1/src/dir
SRCDIR_file2.o := file2/src/dir
Which is enough to build $(obj)/file1.o from file1/src/dir/file1.(c|S),
and $(obj)/file2.o from file2/src/dir/file2.(c|S)
Secondary expansion has been introduced with make 3.81, which is
minimal supported version by kbuild itself.

Is this a simple solution compared with existing ones?
Kind of.
However, it is just moving the complexity around
from Makefiles to the core build scripts, after all.
I guess the increase of build time is not too big,
( 1 % or so for the incremental build of allmodconfig)
but I do not like performing the second expansion for every directory
to save some a few Makefiles.

This does not work for single targets.
'make foo/bar/cmdline.o' works,
but 'make foo/bar/cmdline.i' does not.
