samples: binderfs: really compile this sample and fix build issues
Even after commitc624adc9cb
("samples: fix binderfs sample"), this sample is never compiled. 'hostprogs' teaches Kbuild that this is a host program, but not enough to order to compile it. You must add it to 'always-y' to really compile it. Since this sample has never been compiled in upstream, various issues are left unnoticed. [1] compilers without <linux/android/binderfs.h> are still widely used <linux/android/binderfs.h> is only available since commitc13295ad21
("binderfs: rename header to binderfs.h"), i.e., Linux 5.0 If your compiler is based on UAPI headers older than Linux 5.0, you will see the following error: samples/binderfs/binderfs_example.c:16:10: fatal error: linux/android/binderfs.h: No such file or directory #include <linux/android/binderfs.h> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. You cannot rely on compilers having such a new header. The common approach is to install UAPI headers of this kernel into usr/include, and then add it to the header search path. I added 'depends on HEADERS_INSTALL' in Kconfig, and '-I usr/include' compiler flag in Makefile. [2] compile the sample for target architecture Because headers_install works for the target architecture, only the native compiler was able to build sample code that requires '-I usr/include'. Commit7f3a59db27
("kbuild: add infrastructure to build userspace programs") added the new syntax 'userprogs' to compile user-space programs for the target architecture. Use it, and then 'ifndef CROSS_COMPILE' will go away. I added 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK' because $(CC) is not necessarily capable of linking user-space programs. [3] use subdir-y to descend into samples/binderfs Since this directory does not contain any kernel-space code, it has no point in generating built-in.a or modules.order. Replace obj-$(CONFIG_...) with subdir-$(CONFIG_...). [4] -Wunused-variable warning If I compile this, I see the following warning. samples/binderfs/binderfs_example.c: In function 'main': samples/binderfs/binderfs_example.c:21:9: warning: unused variable 'len' [-Wunused-variable] 21 | size_t len; | ^~~ I removed the unused 'len'. [5] CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS is not required Since this is a user-space standalone program, it is independent of the kernel configuration. Remove 'depends on ANDROID_BINDERFS'. Fixes:9762dc1432
