kernel.bbclass: Set pkg-config variables for building modules
The pkg-config workaround has been applied for kernel image building, but not for module building. So pkg-config variables are different between do_compile and do_compile_kernelmodules tasks. It may unnecessary trigger rebuilding of a few host tools at the later task. Especially when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled in the kernel, it may even trigger rebuilding vmlinux at do_compile_kernelmodules due to the rebuilt host tools such as certs/extract-cert or objtool (on x86). This eventually creates an inconsistent set of kernel binaries. Here is the repro steps: - Check out nanbield on x86 - The unexpected rebuild happens on kirkstone or possibly earlier - Ensure that pahole is available (e.g. via meta-oe) - Set KERNEL_DEBUG to "True" to properly set up PAHOLE e.g. $ export KERNEL_DEBUG="True" $ export BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS="${BB_ENV_PASSTHROUGH_ADDITIONS} KERNEL_DEBUG" - Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y e.g. $ bitbake -c menuconfig virtual/kernel -> Kernel hacking -> Compile-time checks and compiler options -> Generate BTF typeinfo - Build the kernel e.g. $ bitbake virtual/kernel The BTF information in the resulting bzImage and kernel modules are inconsistent, because the module's BTF information is generated using the "second" vmlinux that doesn't have the identical BTF to the "first" vmlinux. These modules can't be loaded at runtime due to the BTF mismatch. This also leads to a build-id mismatch between the installed bzImage and vmlinux since the bzImage is created from the first vmlinux, but the installed vmlinux is the second one. $ eu-readelf -n tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/linux-yocto/6.5.13+git/image/boot/{bzImage*,vmlinux*} | grep "Build ID" Build ID: 4a0d62ee7fef0244950f0f604253729875bea493 Build ID: fb99b3d91399dbe42bf67ddee59e0f5a0c7f74d9 To avoid the unexpected rebuilding that results in such inconsistency, set the same pkg-config variables when building kernel and modules. For kernel 5.19 and above, simply set the HOSTPKG_CONFIG in the make command line.
