kbuild: use 4-space indentation when followed by conditionals

2024-02-14T21:05:44Z

GNU Make manual [1] clearly forbids a tab at the beginning of the conditional directive line: "Extra spaces are allowed and ignored at the beginning of the conditional directive line, but a tab is not allowed." This will not work for the next release of GNU Make, hence commit 82175d1f9430 ("kbuild: Replace tabs with spaces when followed by conditionals") replaced the inappropriate tabs with 8 spaces. However, the 8-space indentation cannot be visually distinguished. Linus suggested 2-4 spaces for those nested if-statements. [2] This commit redoes the replacement with 4 spaces.

kbuild: Replace tabs with spaces when followed by conditionals

2024-01-31T14:24:27Z

This is needed for the future (post make-4.4.1) versions of gnu make. Starting from https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/make.git/commit/?id=07fcee35f058a876447c8a021f9eb1943f902534 gnu make won't allow conditionals to follow recipe prefix. For example there is a tab followed by ifeq on line 324 in the root Makefile. With the new make this conditional causes the following $ make cpu.o /home/dgoncharov/src/linux-kbuild/Makefile:2063: *** missing 'endif'. Stop. make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Error 2 This patch replaces tabs followed by conditionals with 8 spaces. See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64185 and https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64259 for details.
