Sam Ravnborg 7826005e5a kconfig: improve error messages for bad source statements
We now say where we detect the second source of a file,
and where we detect a recursively source of the same file.
This makes it easier to fix such errors.

Jan Beulich 9bb482476c allow stripping of generated symbols under CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL
Building upon parts of the module stripping patch, this patch
introduces similar stripping for vmlinux when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y.
Using CONFIG_KALLSYMS_STRIP_GENERATED reduces the overhead of
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL from 245k/310k to 65k/80k for the (i386/x86-64)
kernels I tested with.

The patch also does away with the need to special case the kallsyms-
internal symbols by making them available even in the first linking
stage.

While it is a generated file, the patch includes the changes to
scripts/genksyms/keywords.c_shipped, as I'm unsure what the procedure
here is.

Jan Beulich ad7a953c52 kbuild: strip generated symbols from *.ko
This patch changes the way __crc_ symbols are being resolved from
using ld to do so to using the assembler, thus allowing these symbols
to be marked local (the linker creates then as global ones) and hence
allow stripping (for modules) or ignoring (for vmlinux) them. While at
this, also strip other generated symbols during module installation.

One potentially debatable point is the handling of the flags passeed
to gcc when translating the intermediate assembly file into an object:
passing $(c_flags) unchanged doesn't work as gcc passes --gdwarf2 to
gas whenever is sees any -g* option, even for -g0, and despite the
fact that the compiler would have already produced all necessary debug
info in the C->assembly translation phase. I took the approach of just
filtering out all -g* options, but an alternative to such negative
filtering might be to have a positive filter which might, in the ideal
case allow just all the -Wa,* options to pass through.

Andreas Gruenbacher 5dae9a550a genksyms: allow to ignore symbol checksum changes
This adds an "override" keyword for use in *.symvers / *.symref files.
When a symbol is overridden, the symbol's old definition will be used for
computing checksums instead of the new one, preserving the previous
checksum.  (Genksyms will still warn about the change.)

This is meant to allow distributions to hide minor actual as well as fake
ABI changes.  (For example, when extra type information becomes available
because additional headers are included, this may change checksums even
though none of the types used have actully changed.)

This approach also allows to get rid of "#ifdef __GENKSYMS__" hacks in the
code, which are currently used in some vendor kernels to work around
checksum changes.

Andreas Gruenbacher 64e6c1e123 genksyms: track symbol checksum changes
Sometimes it is preferable to avoid changes of exported symbol checksums
(to avoid breaking externally provided modules).  When a checksum change
occurs, it can be hard to figure out what caused this change: underlying
types may have changed, or additional type information may simply have
become available at the point where a symbol is exported.

Add a new --reference option to genksyms which allows it to report why
checksums change, based on the type information dumps it creates with the
--dump-types flag.  Genksyms will read in such a dump from a previous run,
and report which symbols have changed (and why).

The behavior can be controlled for an entire build as follows: If
KBUILD_SYMTYPES is set, genksyms uses --dump-types to produce *.symtypes
dump files.  If any *.symref files exist, those will be used as the
reference to check against.  If KBUILD_PRESERVE is set, checksum changes
will fail the build.

Sam Ravnborg a680eedc6c tags and cscope support really belongs in a shell script
as they do not benefit from the make functionality.

Moving the support to a shell script has several benefits:
- The readability of the code has increased a lot
- More people is able to extend the tags support
- We see less changes to the top-level Makefile

The shell script version includes improvements from:
Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> (jump to kconfig symbols)
Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> (drop ./ in paths)
Ian Campbell <ijc@hellion.org.uk> (simplified find algorithms)

This version has a few caveats:
=> It does not support ALLSOURCE_ARCHS
   - it is easy to add if it is really used
=> It assumes all archs have moved to arch/$ARCH/include
   - until that happens we have a few additional hits in the archs

Sam Ravnborg 5b91c33cf2 kbuild: fix -I option expansion with O=... builds
When adding extra -I options with O=... we could
end up in a situation where there were no parameters to -I.
So we had a commandline that looked like this:

    ... -I -Wall ...

This had the undesired side effect that gcc assumed "-Wall"
was a path to look for include files so this options was
effectively ignored.

This happens only when we build the generated module.mod.c files
as part of the final modules builds and is as such harmless
with current kbuild.
This bug was exposed when we rearranged the options to gcc.

Jeremy Huntwork 15a2ee74d2 Fix incompatibility with versions of Perl less than 5.6.0
Fix headers_install.pl and headers_check.pl to be compatible with versions
of Perl less than 5.6.0.  It has been tested with Perl 5.005_03 and 5.8.8.
I realize this may not be an issue for most people, but there will still
be some that hit it, I imagine.  There are three basic issues:

1. Prior to 5.6.0 open() only used 2 arguments, and the versions of
the scripts in 2.6.27.1 use 3.
2. 5.6.0 also introduced the ability to use uninitialized scalar
variables as file handles, which the current scripts make use of.
3. Lastly, 5.6.0 also introduced the pragma 'use warnings'. We can use
the -w switch and be backwards compatible.

Trent Piepho f03b283f08 kbuild: tag with git revision when git describe is missing
setlocalversion used to use an abbreviated git commit sha1 to generate the
tag.  This was changed in commit d882421f4e
"kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format"
to use git describe to come up with a tag.  Which is nice, but git describe
sometimes can't describe the revision.
Commit 56b2f0706d ("setlocalversion: do not
describe if there is nothing to describe") addressed this, but there is still
no tag generated.

So, generate a plain abbreviated sha1 tag like setlocalversion used to when
git describe comes up short.

Ashutosh Naik e6e6733ed9 kbuild: prevent modpost from looking for a .cmd file for a static library linked into a module
This fixes a compile time warning which occurs whenever a static library
is linked into a kernel module.  MODPOST tries to look for a
".<modulename>.cmd" file to look for its dependencies, but that file
doesn't exist or get generated for static libraries.

This patch prevents modpost from looking for a .cmd file when a module is
linked with a static library

Al Viro ce97e13e52 fix allmodconfig breakage
If you use KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG (even with empty file) you get broken
allmodconfig/allyesconfig; CONFIG_MODULES gets turned off, with obvious
massive fallout.

Breakage had been introduced when conf_set_all_new_symbols() got used
for allmodconfig et.al.

What happens is that sym_calc_value(modules_sym) done in
conf_read_simple() sets SYMBOL_VALID on both modules_sym and MODULES.
When we get to conf_set_all_new_symbols(), we set sym->def[S_DEF_USER]
on everything, but it has no effect on sym->curr for the symbols that
already have SYMBOL_VALID - these are stuck.

Solution: use sym_clear_all_valid() in there.  Note that it makes
reevaluation of modules_sym redundant - sym_clear_all_valid() will do
that itself.

Alan Jenkins 06d1cd267c tracing/fastboot: fix row order in bootgraph.pl
When bootgraph.pl parses a file, it gives one row for each initcall's
pid.  But they are displayed in random (perl hash) order.  Let's
sort the pids by the start time of their first initcall instead.

This helps trace module initcalls, where each has a separate pid.
bootgraph.pl will show module initcalls during the initramfs; it may
also be adapted to show subsequent module initcalls.

Jason Baron 346e15beb5 driver core: basic infrastructure for per-module dynamic debug messages
Base infrastructure to enable per-module debug messages.

I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes
control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file,
currently, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG,
is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by
defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no
affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set.

The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That
is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls
can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis.

Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define 
their own debug levels and flags.

Usage:

Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file, 
<debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that
can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows:

	<module_name> <enabled=0/1>
		.
		.
		.

	<module_name> : Name of the module in which the debug call resides
	<enabled=0/1> : whether the messages are enabled or not

For example:

	snd_hda_intel enabled=0
	fixup enabled=1
	driver enabled=0

Enable a module:

	$echo "set enabled=1 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules

Disable a module:

	$echo "set enabled=0 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules

Enable all modules:

	$echo "set enabled=1 all" > dynamic_printk/modules

Disable all modules:

	$echo "set enabled=0 all" > dynamic_printk/modules

Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables
debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above
disable command.

When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize
what is going on at which time. In addition, with the fastboot asynchronous
initcall level, it's very valuable to see which initcall gets run where
and when.

This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be
shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change
to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall
(so that the script can work out the parallelism).

Steven Rostedt f2f8458e75 ftrace: objcopy version test for local symbols
The --globalize-symbols option came out in objcopy version 2.17.
If the kernel is being compiled on a system with a lower version of
objcopy, then we can not use the globalize / localize trick to
link to symbols pointing to local functions.

This patch tests the version of objcopy and will only use the trick
if the version is greater than or equal to 2.17. Otherwise, if an
object has only local functions within a section, it will give a
nice warning and recommend the user to upgrade their objcopy.

Leaving the symbols unrecorded is not that big of a deal, since the
mcount record method changes the actual mcount code to be a simple
"ret" without recording registers or anything.

Steven Rostedt 8feff1cacc ftrace: handle weak symbol functions
During tests and checks, I've discovered that there were failures to
convert mcount callers into nops. Looking deeper into these failures,
code that was attempted to be changed was not an mcount caller.
The current code only updates if the code being changed is what it expects,
but I still investigate any time there is a failure.

What was happening is that a weak symbol was being used as a reference
for other mcount callers. That weak symbol was also referenced elsewhere
so the offsets were using the strong symbol and not the function symbol
that it was referenced from.

This patch changes the setting up of the mcount_loc section to search
for a global function that is not weak. It will pick a local over a weak
but if only a weak is found in a section, a warning is printed and the
mcount location is not recorded (just to be safe).

[...]

We will add a section to point to each function call.

   .section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
[...]
   .quad .text + 0x185
[...]

The offset to of the mcount call site in init_post is an offset from
the start of the section, and not the start of the function init_post.
The mcount relocation is at the call site 0x185 from the start of the
.text section.

  .text + 0x185  == init_post + 0xa

We need a way to add this __mcount_loc section in a way that we do not
lose the relocations after final link.  The .text section here will
be attached to all other .text sections after final link and the
offsets will be meaningless.  We need to keep track of where these
.text sections are.

To do this, we use the start of the first function in the section.
do_one_initcall.  We can make a tmp.s file with this function as a reference
to the start of the .text section.

   .section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
[...]
   .quad do_one_initcall + 0x185
[...]

Then we can compile the tmp.s into a tmp.o

  gcc -c tmp.s -o tmp.o

And link it into back into main.o.

  ld -r main.o tmp.o -o tmp_main.o
  mv tmp_main.o main.o

But we have a problem.  What happens if the first function in a section
is not exported, and is a static function. The linker will not let
the tmp.o use it.  This case exists in main.o as well.

Disassembly of section .init.text:

0000000000000000 <set_reset_devices>:
   0:   55                      push   %rbp
   1:   48 89 e5                mov    %rsp,%rbp
   4:   e8 00 00 00 00          callq  9 <set_reset_devices+0x9>
                        5: R_X86_64_PC32        mcount+0xfffffffffffffffc

The first function in .init.text is a static function.

00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices

The lowercase 't' means that set_reset_devices is local and is not exported.
If we simply try to link the tmp.o with the set_reset_devices we end
up with two symbols: one local and one global.

 .section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
 .quad set_reset_devices + 0x10

00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices
                 U set_reset_devices

We still have an undefined reference to set_reset_devices, and if we try
to compile the kernel, we will end up with an undefined reference to
set_reset_devices, or even worst, it could be exported someplace else,
and then we will have a reference to the wrong location.

To handle this case, we make an intermediate step using objcopy.
We convert set_reset_devices into a global exported symbol before linking
it with tmp.o and set it back afterwards.

00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices

00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices

00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices

Now we have a section in main.o called __mcount_loc that we can place
somewhere in the kernel using vmlinux.ld.S and access it to convert
all these locations that call mcount into nops before starting SMP
and thus, eliminating the need to do this with kstop_machine.

Note, A well documented perl script (scripts/recordmcount.pl) is used
to do all this in one location.

David Woodhouse d945b697d0 Automatic MODULE_ALIAS() for DMI match tables.
This makes modpost handle MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dmi, xxxx).

I had to change the string pointers in the match table to char arrays,
and picked a size of 79 bytes almost at random -- do we need to make it
bigger than that? I was a bit concerned about the 'bloat' this
introduces into the match tables, but they should all be __initdata so
it shouldn't matter too much.

(Actually, modpost does go through the relocations and look at most of
them; it wouldn't be impossible to make it handle string pointers -- but
doesn't seem to be worth the effort, since they're __initdata).

Arjan van de Ven f9b9796ade Add a script to visualize the kernel boot process / time
When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize
what is going on at which time. In addition, with some of the initializing
going asynchronous soon, it's valuable to track/print which worker thread
is executing the initialization.

This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be
shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change
to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall
(so that the script can work out the parallelism).

We need to add a flag for all code that is in the drivers/staging/

Based on code from Andreas Gruenbacher and Jeff Mahoney to provide a
TAINT flag for the support level of a kernel module in the Novell
enterprise kernel release.

This is the code that actually modifies the modules, adding the flag to

I think the problem comes from "markers: fix duplicate modpost entry"
(commit d35cb360c2)

Especially :

  -   add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
  +   if (!mod->skip)
  +     add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
    }
    return;
   fail:

Here is a fix that should take care if this problem.

Serge E. Hallyn 93c06cbbf9 selinux: add support for installing a dummy policy (v2)
In August 2006 I posted a patch generating a minimal SELinux policy.  This
week, David P. Quigley posted an updated version of that as a patch against
the kernel.  It also had nice logic for auto-installing the policy.

Following is David's original patch intro (preserved especially
bc it has stats on the generated policies):

se interested in the changes there were only two significant
changes. The first is that the iteration through the list of classes
used NULL as a sentinel value. The problem with this is that the
class_to_string array actually has NULL entries in its table as place
holders for the user space object classes.

The second change was that it would seem at some point the initial sids
table was NULL terminated. This is no longer the case so that iteration
has to be done on array length instead of looking for NULL.

Some statistics on the policy that it generates:

The policy consists of 523 lines which contain no blank lines. Of those
523 lines 453 of them are class, permission, and initial sid
definitions. These lines are usually little to no concern to the policy
developer since they will not be adding object classes or permissions.
Of the remaining 70 lines there is one type, one role, and one user
statement. The remaining lines are broken into three portions. The first
group are TE allow rules which make up 29 of the remaining lines, the
second is assignment of labels to the initial sids which consist of 27
lines, and file system labeling statements which are the remaining 11.

In addition to the policy.conf generated there is a single file_contexts
file containing two lines which labels the entire system with base_t.

This policy generates a policy.23 binary that is 7920 bytes.

(then a few versions later...):

The new policy is 587 lines (stripped of blank lines) with 476 of those
lines being the boilerplate that I mentioned last time. The remaining
111 lines have the 3 lines for type, user, and role, 70 lines for the
allow rules (one for each object class including user space object
classes), 27 lines to assign types to the initial sids, and 11 lines for
file system labeling. The policy binary is 9194 bytes.

Changelog:

	Aug 26: Added Documentation/SELinux.txt
	Aug 26: Incorporated a set of comments by Stephen Smalley:
		1. auto-setup SELINUXTYPE=dummy
		2. don't auto-install if selinux is enabled with
			non-dummy policy
		3. don't re-compute policy version
		4. /sbin/setfiles not /usr/sbin/setfiles
	Aug 22: As per JMorris comments, made sure make distclean
		cleans up the mdp directory.
		Removed a check for file_contexts which is now
		created in the same file as the check, making it
		superfluous.

Andreas Gruenbacher 94aa3d716e kbuild: genksyms parser: fix the __attribute__ rule
We are having two kinds of problems with genksyms today: fake checksum
changes without actual ABI changes, and changes which we would rather like
to ignore (such as an additional field at the end of a structure that
modules are not supposed to touch, for example).

I have thought about ways to improve genksyms and compute checksums
differently to avoid those problems, but in the end I don't see a
fundamentally better way.  So here are some genksyms patches for at least
making the checksums more easily manageable, if we cannot fully fix them.

In addition to the bugfixes (the first two patches), this allows genksyms
to track checksum changes and report why a checksum changed (third patch),
and to selectively ignore changes (fourth patch).

This patch:

Gcc __attribute__ definitions may occur repeatedly, e.g.,

	static int foo __attribute__((__used__))
		       __attribute__((aligned (16)));

The genksyms parser does not understand this, and generates a syntax error.
Fix this case.

Sam Ravnborg 09748e178b kconfig: make defconfig is no longer chatty
make defconfig generated a lot of output
then noone actually read.
Use conf_set_all_new_symbols() to generate the default
configuration and avoid the chatty output.

A typical run now looks like this:
$ make  defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'i386_defconfig'
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:13:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol SEMAPHORE_SLEEPERS
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:176:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol PREEMPT_BKL
...
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:1386:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol INSTRUMENTATION
$

As an added benefit we now clearly see the warnings generated
in the start of the process.

Sam Ravnborg cd9140e1e7 kconfig: make oldconfig is now less chatty
Previously when running "make oldconfig" we saw all the propmt lines
from kconfig and noone actully read this.

With this patch the user will only see output if there is new symbols.
This will be seen as "make oldconfig" runs which does not generate any output.

A typical run now looks like this:

$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
$

If a new symbol is found then we restart the config process like this:
$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
*
* Restart config...
*
*
* General setup
*
Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers (EXPERIMENTAL) [Y/n/?] y
Local version - append to kernel release (LOCALVERSION) []
...

The bahaviour is similar to what we know when running the implicit
oldconfig target "make silentoldconfig".
"make silentoldconfig" are run as part of the kernel build process
if the configuration has changed.

Sam Ravnborg 7712401ae9 kbuild: optimize headers_* targets
Move the core functionality of headers_install
and headers_check to two small perl scripts.
The makefile is adapted to use the perl scrip and
changed to operate on all files in a directory.
So if one file is changed then all files in the
directory is processed.

perl were chosen for the helper scripts because this
is pure text processing which perl is good at and
especially the headers_check.pl script are expected to
see changes / new checks implmented.

The speed is ~300% faster on this box.
And the output generated to the screen is now down to
two lines per directory (one for install, one for check)
so it is easier to scroll back after a kernel build.

The perl scripts has been brought to sanity by patient
feedback from: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

Sam Ravnborg 88181ec30f kbuild: only one call for include/ in make headers_*
Move it to the top-level file to decide if we install/check
the generic headers or the arch specific headers.

This revealed a long standing bug where "make headers_check_all"
relied on the files in asm/ for the current architecture.
So make headers_check_all is now broken by this commit.

In addition:

o add a simpler way to detect if an arch support
  exporting header files.

o add 'set -e;' so we error out early if
  make headers_check_all fails.

o add sparc64 and cris to arch we do not process
  in make headers_*_all because:

    sparc64 - use sparc to export headers
    cris    - is know seriously broken

Eric Sandeen 585e93ae83 find dynamic stack allocations in checkstack.pl
Currently, checkstack.pl only looks for fixed subtractions from the stack
pointer.  However, things like this:

void function(int size)
{
        char stackbuster[size << 2];
...

are certainly worth pointing out, I think.

This could perhaps be done more cleanly, and the following patch only
adds "dynamic" REs for x86 and x86_64, but it works:

0x00b0 crypto_cbc_decrypt_inplace [cbc]:                Dynamic (%rax)
0x00ad crypto_pcbc_decrypt_inplace [pcbc]:              Dynamic (%rax)
0x02f6 crypto_pcbc_encrypt_inplace [pcbc]:              Dynamic (%rax)
0x036c _crypto_xcbc_digest_setkey [xcbc]:               Dynamic (%rax)

Adrian Bunk f606ddf42f remove the v850 port
Trying to compile the v850 port brings many compile errors, one of them exists
since at least kernel 2.6.19.

There also seems to be noone willing to bring this port back into a usable
state.

This patch therefore removes the v850 port.

If anyone ever decides to revive the v850 port the code will still be
available from older kernels, and it wouldn't be impossible for the port to
reenter the kernel if it would become actively maintained again.

Mathieu Desnoyers d35cb360c2 markers: fix duplicate modpost entry

Sam Ravnborg 4d7365d664 kbuild: ignore powerpc specific symbols in modpost
Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> wrote:
We have a case in powerpc in which we want to link some library
routines with all module objects.  The routines are intended for
handling out-of-line function call register save/restore so having
them as EXPORT_SYMBOL() is counter productive (we do also need to
link the same "library" code into the kernel).

Without this patch a powerpc build would error out and fail
to build modules with the added register save/restore module.

There were two obvious solutions:
1) To link the .o file before the modpost stage
2) To ignore the symbols in modpost

Option 1) was ruled out because we do not have any separate
linking stage for single file modules.

This patch implements option 2 - and do so only for powerpc.

The symbols we ignore are all undefined symbols named:
_restgpr_*, _savegpr_*, _rest32gpr_*, _save32gpr_*

Andy Whitcroft c45dcabd26 update checkpatch.pl to version 0.19
This version is a bit of a whopper.  This version brings a few new checks,
improvements to a number of checks mostly through modifications to the
way types are parsed, several fixes to quote/comment handling, as well as
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.

Of note:
 - return is not a function and is now reported,
 - preprocessor directive detection is loosened to match C99 standard,
 - we now intuit new type modifiers, and
 - comment handling is much improved

Andy Whitcroft (18):
      Version: 0.19
      fix up a couple of missing newlines in reports
      colon to parenthesis spacing varies on asm
      values: #include is a preprocessor statement
      quotes: fix single character quotes at line end
      add typedef exception for the non-pointer "function types"
      kerneldoc parameters must be on one line, relax line length
      types: word boundary is not always required
      improved #define bracketing reports
      uninitialized_var is an annotation not a function name
      possible types: add possible modifier handling
      possible types: fastcall is a type modifier
      types: unsigned is not a modifier on all types
      static/external initialisation to zero should allow modifiers
      checkpatch: fix recognition of preprocessor directives -- part 2
      comments: fix inter-hunk comment tracking
      return is not a function
      do not report include/asm/foo.h use in include/linux/foo.h

Sam Ravnborg 96d97f262a kbuild: fix $(src) assignmnet with external modules
When we introduced support for KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS
we started to include the externam module's kbuild
file when doing the final modpost step.

As external modules often do:
ccflags-y := -I$(src)

We had problems because $(src) was unassinged and
gcc then used the next parameter for -I resulting in
strange build failures.

Fix is to assign $(src) and $(obj) when building
external modules.

Steven Rostedt 656ee82cc8 kbuild: create new CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o option
We currently have a way to add special CFLAGS to code, but we do not have a
way to remove them if needed.

With the case of ftrace, some files should simply not be profiled. Adding
the -pg flag to these files is simply a waste, and adding "notrace" to each
and every function is ugly.

Currently we put in "Makefile turd" [1] to stop the compiler from adding -pg
to certain files. This was clumsy and awkward.

This patch now adds the revese of CFLAGS_(basename).o with
CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o.  This allows developers to prevent certain
CFLAGS from being used to compile files. For example, we can now do

CFLAGS_REMOVE_string.o = -pg

to remove the -pg option from the string.o file in the lib directory.

Note: a space delimited list of options may be added to the REMOVE macro.

[1] - what David Miller called the workaronud to remove -pg

Jean Delvare ac55182899 modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard
Not all device types need a wildcard at the end of their module
aliases. In particular, for i2c module aliases, the trailing wildcard
is not only unneeded, it could also cause the wrong driver to be
loaded.

As I2C devices have no IDs, i2c module aliases are simple, arbitrary
device names. For example:

$ /sbin/modinfo lm90
filename:       /lib/modules/2.6.25-git18/kernel/drivers/hwmon/lm90.ko
author:         Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
description:    LM90/ADM1032 driver
license:        GPL
vermagic:       2.6.25-git18 mod_unload
depends:        hwmon
alias:          i2c:lm90*
alias:          i2c:adm1032*
alias:          i2c:lm99*
alias:          i2c:lm86*
alias:          i2c:max6657*
alias:          i2c:adt7461*
alias:          i2c:max6680*
$

This would cause trouble if one I2C chip name matches the beginning of
another I2C chip name and both chips are supported by different
drivers. For example, an i2c device named lm9042 would cause the lm90
driver to be loaded, while it doesn't support that device. This case
has yet to be seen in practice, but still, I'd like to fix it now. The
cleanest fix is to remove the trailing wildcard from i2c module aliases.

Here's a patch doing this.

Not all device type aliases need a trailing wildcard, in particular
the i2c aliases don't. Don't add a wildcard by default in do_table(),
instead let each device type handler add it if needed.

I have tested types acpi, dmi, eisa, i2c, ide, ieee1394, input, pci,
pcmcia, platform, pnp, scsi, serio, ssb and usb. Other types (ccw, of,
vio, parisc, sdio and virtio) are untested.

Andy Whitcroft 171ae1a491 update checkpatch.pl to version 0.17
This version brings improvements to external declaration detection, fixes to
quote tracking, fixes to unary tracking, some clarification of wording, and
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.

Of note:
 - much better unary tracking across preprocessor directives
 - UTF8 checks highlight the character at fault
 - widening of mutex detection

Andy Whitcroft (17):
      Version: 0.17
      values: __attribute__ carries through the previous type
      quotes: should only follow "positive" lines
      clarify the indent tabs over spaces wording
      loosen NR_CPUS check for array range initialisers
      detect external function declarations without an extern prefix
      function declaration arguments should be with the identifier
      DEFINE_MUTEX should report in line with struct mutex
      NR_CPUS is valid in preprocessor statements
      comment detection should not start on the @@ line
      types: add support for #undef
      tighten mutex/completion reports to usage
      allow export of function pointers
      values: preprocessor #define is out of line maintain values
      values: #define does not always have parentheses
      unary '*' may be const
      utf8 checks should report location of the invalid character

Roman Zippel 5a1aa8a1af kconfig: add named choice group
As choice dependency are now fully checked, it's quite easy to add support
for named choices. This lifts the restriction that a choice value can only
appear once, although it still has to be within the same group,
but multiple choices can be joined by giving them a name.
While at it I cleaned up a little the choice type logic to simplify it a

Randy Dunlap 94dc7ad550 kernel-doc: detect/prevent duplicate doc section names
I saw this problem recently.  With this kernel-doc:

 * Note: some important info
 *
 * Note: other important info

kernel-doc uses the "section name" (preceding the ':', like "Note") as a hash
key for storing the descriptive text ("blah important info").  It is (was)
possible to have duplicate (colliding) section names, without any kind of
warning or error.

kernel-doc happily used the latter descriptive text for all instances of
printing the <section-name> descriptive text and the former important info
was lost.

One way to "fix" this is to modify the kernel-doc comments, e.g.:

 * Note1: foo bar
 *
 * Note.2: blah zay

For now, kernel-doc will signal an error when it sees colliding section names
like this.

Richard Hacker 2d04b5ae1b kbuild: support loading extra symbols in modpost
This patch adds a new command line option -E to modpost, expecting a symbol
file as an argument which is read prior to symbol processing. -E can be
supplied multiple times for as many files as is needed.

When building kernel modules that depend on other modules not in the main
kernel tree, modpost complains about undefined symbols:
# make -C /path/to/linux/kernel M=/path/to/my/module
...
Building modules, stage 2.
....
WARNING: "rt_copy_buf" [/home/rich/osc_etl_rtw/osc_kmod.ko] undefined!
...etc

This situation occurs when modpost processes the new module's symbols. When
it finds symbols not exported by the mainline kernel, it issues this warning.

The patch adds a new command line option -e to modpost which expects a symbol
file as an argument. The symbols listed in this file are added to modpost's
symbol tables during startup. -e can be supplied as often as required.

This patch works together with the second patch. It introduces a new make
variable, KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS, which is used when calling modpost.

Kay Sievers 0c81eed4b9 PNP: add all PNP card device id's as individual aliases
The current PNP combined card + devices module aliase can
never ever match anything, because these values are not available
all at the same time to request a module.

Instead of adding the combined alias, we add the device id's
all as individual aliases. Device id's are exported by the PNP
bus and can now properly used to request the loading of a
matching module.

The module snd-sbawe currently exports aliases, which can never
match anything:
  alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0045dCTL0022*
  alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0044dCTL0023*
  alias: pnp:cCTLXXXXdCTL0042dCTL0022*

  alias: pnp:cCTL0039dCTL0031dCTL0021*
  alias: pnp:cCTL0035dCTL0031dCTL0021*

With this patch it exports only the device id's, as properly
matchable aliases:
  alias: pnp:dCTL0070*
  alias: pnp:dCTL0045*
  alias: pnp:dCTL0023*
  alias: pnp:dCTL0044*

  alias: pnp:dCTL0042*
  alias: pnp:dCTL0041*
  alias: pnp:dCTL0021*
  alias: pnp:dCTL0031*

Now, the exported value of the PNP bus can be used to autoload
a matching module:
  $ modprobe --first-time -n -v pnp:dCTL0045

This version brings proper quote tracking across lines, and brings the
handling of comments into the same mechanism ensuring nesting is correctly
handled.  It brings the usual flurry of fixes for false positives.  It also
brings a number of new checks.  The most contentious change will likely be
the checks for NR_CPUS as this throws some new warnings in kernel/sched.c.

Of note:
 - all new quote tracking across lines
 - all new comment tracking
 - new more direct, less ambigious wording for some warnings
 - recommends mutexes and completions over semaphores
 - recommends strict_strto* over simple_strto*
 - report on direct use of NR_CPUS

      values: cope with unbalanced brackets

      preprocessor #if should not trigger trailing statement checks
      test: allow us to limit output to a single error
      recommend real mutexes over semaphores
      asm checks should mirror those for __asm__
      warn on semaphores being used in place of completions
      trailing ; on control structure should ignore do {} while ();
      recommend strict_strtoX over simple_strtoX
      redo comment handling as a quote type
      use of NR_CPUS is normally wrong
      consistant spacing should only be about spaces
      if brace check suppression should only apply to the top-levels
      use tr/// to align spacing for operators
      move to using four parameter form of substr

Richard Kennedy 00d6296145 kernel-doc: fix function-pointer-parameter parsing
When running "make htmldocs" I'm seeing some non-fatal perl errors caused
by trying to parse the callback function definitions in blk-core.c.

The errors are "Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.)..."
in combination with:
Warning(linux-2.6.25-rc2/block/blk-core.c:1877): No description found for parameter ''

The function pointers are defined without a * i.e.
int (drv_callback)(struct request *)

The compiler is happy with them, but kernel-doc isn't.

This patch teaches create_parameterlist in kernel-doc to parse this type of
function pointer definition, but is it the right way to fix the problem ?
The problem only seems to occur in blk-core.c.

However with the patch applied, kernel-doc finds the correct parameter
description for the callback in blk_end_request_callback, which is doesn't
normally.

I thought it would be a bit odd to change to code to use the more normal
form of function pointers just to get the documentation to work, so I fixed
kernel-doc instead - even though this is teaching it to understand code
that might go away (The comment for blk_end_request_callback says that it
should not be used and will removed at some point).

Mathieu Desnoyers b2e3e658b3 Linux Kernel Markers: create modpost file
This adds some new magic in the MODPOST phase for CONFIG_MARKERS.  Analogous
to the Module.symvers file, the build will now write a Module.markers file
when CONFIG_MARKERS=y is set.  This file lists the name, defining module, and
format string of each marker, separated by \t characters.  This simple text
file can be used by offline build procedures for instrumentation code,
analogous to how System.map and Module.symvers can be useful to have for
kernels other than the one you are running right now.

The strings are made easy to extract by having the __trace_mark macro define
the name and format together in a single array called __mstrtab_* in the
__markers_strings section.  This is straightforward and reliable as long as
the marker structs are always defined by this macro.  It is an unreasonable
amount of hairy work to extract the string pointers from the __markers section
structs, which entails handling a relocation type for every machine under the
sun.

You've hit the rather subtle rules of select vs default. What happened is
that SERIO is selected to m, but SERIO_I8042 isn't selected so the default
of y is used instead.
We already had the problem in the past that select and default don't work
well together, so this patch cleans this up and makes the rule hopefully
more straightforward. Basically now the value is calculated like this:

	(value && dependency) || select

where the value is the user choice (if available and the symbol is
visible) or default.

In this case it means SERIO and SERIO_I8042 are both set to y due to their
default and if SERIO didn't had the default, then the SERIO_I8042 value
would be limited to m due to the dependency.

I tested this patch with more 10000 random configs and above case is the
only the difference that showed up, so I hope there is nothing that
depended on the old more complex and subtle rules.

Paulo Marques f2df3f65d0 kallsyms should prefer non weak symbols
When resolving symbol names from addresses with aliased symbol names,
kallsyms_lookup always returns the first symbol, even if it is a weak
symbol.

This patch changes this by sorting the symbols with the weak symbols last
before feeding them to the kernel.  This way the kernel runtime isn't
changed at all, only the kallsyms build system is changed.

Another side effect is that the symbols get sorted by address, too.  So,
even if future binutils version have some bug in "nm" that makes it fail to
correctly sort symbols by address, the kernel won't be affected by this.

Mathieu says:

  I created a module in LTTng that uses kallsyms to get the symbol
  corresponding to a specific system call address.  Unfortunately, all the
  unimplemented syscalls were all referring to the (same) weak symbol
  identifying an unrelated system call rather that sys_ni (or whatever
  non-weak symbol would be expected).  Kallsyms was dumbly returning the first
  symbol that matched.

  This patch makes sure kallsyms returns the non-weak symbol when there is
  one, which seems to be the expected result.

Robin Getz a3b81113fb remove support for un-needed _extratext section
When passing a zero address to kallsyms_lookup(), the kernel thought it was
a valid kernel address, even if it is not.  This is because is_ksym_addr()
called is_kernel_extratext() and checked against labels that don't exist on
many archs (which default as zero).  Since PPC was the only kernel which
defines _extra_text, (in 2005), and no longer needs it, this patch removes
_extra_text support.

Introducing separate sections for __dev* (HOTPLUG),
__cpu* (HOTPLUG_CPU) and __mem* (MEMORY_HOTPLUG)
allows us to do a much more reliable Section mismatch
check in modpost. We are no longer dependent on the actual
configuration of for example HOTPLUG.

This has the effect that all users see much more
Section mismatch warnings than before because they
were almost all hidden when HOTPLUG was enabled.
The advantage of this is that when building a piece
of code then it is much more likely that the Section
mismatch errors are spotted and the warnings will be
felt less random of nature.

userlands and cross-compilers, but it will not hurt kernel kconfig
either. PTXdist menuconfig now works on Windows linked with PDCurses and
compiled using MinGW - there is no termios and signals.

  lxdialog was separate process)
* Do not mess with termios directly and let curses tell screen size.

- replaced non-standard "source" statement by POSIX "dot" command
- use leading ./ on mktemp filename to force the tempfile to a local

Andres Salomon 2f4b489b77 kconfig: use getopt() in conf.c for handling command line arguments
Switch from doing our own parsing of command line arguments to
using getopt(3) to do it.  Aside from simplifying things, this allows us to
specify multiple arguments; the old code could only accept two arguments
(input_mode and kconfig name).

Note some subtle changes:
 - The argument '-?' is no longer supported.
 - '-h' is not treated as an error, so output goes to stdout, and we
   exit with '0'.
 - There is no compatibility checking amongst arguments; the last option
   will simply override earlier options.  For example, 'conf -n -y foo'
   is perfectly valid now (input_mode will be set_yes).  Previously, that
   would have been an error ("can't find file -y").

Tejun Heo 551559e13a kbuild: implement modules.order
When multiple built-in modules (especially drivers) provide the same
capability, they're prioritized by link order specified by the order
listed in Makefile.  This implicit ordering is lost for loadable
modules.

When driver modules are loaded by udev, what comes first in
modules.alias file is selected.  However, the order in this file is
indeterministic (depends on filesystem listing order of installed
modules).  This causes confusion.

The solution is two-parted.  This patch updates kbuild such that it
generates and installs modules.order which contains the name of
modules ordered according to Makefile.  The second part is update to
depmod such that it generates output files according to this file.

Note that both obj-y and obj-m subdirs can contain modules and
ordering information between those two are lost from beginning.
Currently obj-y subdirs are put before obj-m subdirs.

Sam Ravnborg cleaned up Makefile modifications and suggested using awk
to remove duplicate lines from modules.order instead of using separate
C program.

Sam Ravnborg 18c32dac75 kbuild: fix building with O=.. options
The check introduced in commit:
4f1127e204 "kbuild: fix
infinite make recursion"

caused certain external modules not to build and
also caused 'make targz-pkg' to fail.
This is a minimal fix so we revert to previous
behaviour - but we do not overwrite the Makefile
in the top-level directory.

Andy Whitcroft 8905a67c63 update checkpatch.pl to version 0.12
This version brings a new terse output mode as well as many improvements to
the unary detection and bare type regcognition.  It also brings the usual
updates for false positives, though these seem to be slowing markedly
now that the unary detector is no longer just putting its finger in the
air and guessing.  Of note:

  - new --terse mode producing a single line per report
  - loosening of the block brace checks
  - new checks for enum/union/struch brace placements
  - hugely expanded "bare type" detection
  - checks for inline usage
  - better handling of already open comment blocks
  - handle patches which introduce or remove lines without newlines

Andy Whitcroft (19):
      Version: 0.12
      style fixes as spotted by checkpatch
      add a --terse options of a single line of output per report
      block brace checks should only apply for single line blocks
      all new bare type detector
      check spacing for open braces with enum, union and struct
      check for LINUX_VERSION_CODE
      macros definition bracketing checks need to ignore -ve context
      clean up the mail-back mode, -q et al
      expand possible type matching to declarations
      allow const and sparse annotations on possible types
      handle possible types as regular types everywhere
      prefer plain inline over __inline__ and __inline
      all new open comment detection
      fix up conditional extraction for if assignment checks
      add const to the possible type matcher
      unary checks: a for loop is a conditional too
      possible types: detect function pointer definitions
      handle missind newlines at end of file, report addition

Sam Ravnborg 6840999b19 x86: simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig all.config
Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in
all.config.

For a fix the diffstat is nice:
 6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-)

The patch reverts these commits:
 - 0f855aa64b ("kconfig: add helper to set
   config symbol from environment variable")
 - 2a113281f5 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to
   set 64BIT with all*config targets")

Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so
the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were
not needed.

With this patch we have following behaviour:

  # make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...]
  option \ host arch      | 32bit         | 64bit
  =====================================================
  ./.                     | 32bit         | 64bit
  ARCH=x86                | 32bit         | 32bit
  ARCH=i386               | 32bit         | 32bit
  ARCH=x86_64             | 64bit         | 64bit

The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes
precedence over the configuration.

So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel
no matter what the configuration says.  The configuration will
be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the
other way around.

This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no
suprises here.

make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as
the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit
and 64-bit using menuconfig.

Sam Ravnborg daa93fab82 x86: enable "make ARCH=x86"
After unification of the Kconfig files and
introducing K64BIT support in kconfig
it required only trivial changes to enable
"make ARCH=x86".

With this patch you can build for x86_64 in several ways:
1) make ARCH=x86_64
2) make ARCH=x86 K64BIT=y
3) make ARCH=x86 menuconfig
   => select 64-bit

Likewise for i386 with the addition that
i386 is default is you say ARCH=x86.

Sam Ravnborg 2a113281f5 kconfig: use $K64BIT to set 64BIT with all*config targets
The variable K64BIT can now be used to select the
value of CONFIG_64BIT.

This is for example useful for powerpc to generate
allmodconfig for both bit sizes - like this:
make ARCH=powerpc K64BIT=y
make ARCH=powerpc K64BIT=n

To use this the Kconfig file must use "64BIT" as the
config value to select between 32 and 64 bit.

Sam Ravnborg 0f855aa64b kconfig: add helper to set config symbol from environment variable
Add conf_set_env_sym() that can set an already defined symbol
based on the value of an environment variable.

Unknown symbols are silently ignored.
A warning is printed if the value of the environment variable
is unexpected.
