[Buildroot] [PATCH 1 of 7] infra: consistently use double dollar signs inside inner-xxx-targets

Thomas De Schampheleire patrickdepinguin at gmail.com
Sun May 11 15:38:45 UTC 2014


The inner-xxx-targets in the buildroot package infrastructures are
evaluated using $(eval) which causes variable references to be a bit
different than in regular make code. As we want most references to be
expanded only at the time of the $(eval) we should not use standard
references $(VAR) but rather use double dollar signs $$(VAR). This includes
function references like $(call), $(subst), etc. The only exception is the
reference to numbered variables, which are paremeters to the inner block:
$(1), $(2), etc.

This patch introduces consistent usage of double-dollar signs throughout the
different inner-xxx-targets blocks.

In some cases, this would potentially cause circular references, in
particular when the value of HOST_FOO_VAR would be obtained from the
corresponding FOO_VAR if HOST_FOO_VAR is not defined. In these cases, an
immediate assignment using := is necessary instead of a deferred assignment.
using =.
When such a circular assignment occurs in a variable defined with '?=',
a special construction is necessary, as make does not have a corresponding
'?:=' assignment. As 'FOO ?= bar' is equivalent to
  ifeq ($(origin FOO),undefined)
    FOO = bar
  endif
we can replace such constructions with
  ifeq ($$(origin FOO),undefined)
    FOO := bar
  endif


Benefits of these changes are:
- behavior of variables is now again as expected. For example, setting
  $(2)_VERSION = virtual in pkg-virtual.mk will effectively work, while
  originally it would cause very odd results.

- The output of 'make printvars' is now much more useful. This target shows
  the value of all variables, and the expression that led to that value.
  However, if the expression was coming from an inner-xxx-targets block, and
  was using single dollar signs, it would show in printvars as
    VAR = value (value)
  while if double dollar signs are used, it would effectively look like
    VAR = value (actual expression)
  as is intended.
  This improvement is for example effective for FOO_DL_VERSION, FOO_RAWNAME,
  FOO_SITE_METHOD and FOO_MAKE.

The correctness of this patch can be verified by comparing 'make printvars'
before and after applying this patch.
