2007-10-18update checkpatch.pl to version 0.11Andy Whitcroft1-174/+340
This version brings a more cautious checkpatch.pl by default. The more subjective checks are only applied with the --strict option. It also brings the usual slew of corrections for false positives. Of note: - new tree detection, the source tree will be found via the executable - a major revamp of the unary detection to make it more parser like - a new summary at the bottom of the report - --strict option for subjective checks - --file to enable checking on complete files - support for use in emacs "compile" window Andy Whitcroft (27): Version: 0.11 fix up cat_vet for the case where there are no control characters any cast to a pointer introduces a type cpp unary operator detection needs to float attributes are also valid in type definitions sizeof may be a bareword and makes its argument unary unary checks for #ifdef et al need to find end of line add new --file mode to handle raw source files add --strict/--subjective which enables the subjective tests add some additional standard type suffixes cpp #elif is also a unary prefix case is not a function name widen asm volatile exceptions __kprobes is a type attribute typeof is a unary operator function open parenthesis checks should check all occurances expand sizeof() binary exceptions linux/irq.h should not be recommended work harder to find the kernel root and add --root= fix --emacs mode line numbers and string concatenation warnings add a summary to the bottom of the main report loosen assignment in if checks update operator spacing to maintain tabs in output revamp unary detection corruption/line wrapped patches need only reporting once revamp s/u/be/le 8/16/32/64 bit types handle missing ,1 in uni-diff header Mike D.

2007-10-17kernel-doc: fix doc blocks and htmlRandy Dunlap1-9/+32
Johannes Berg reports (Thanks!) that &struct names are not highlighted in html output format when they are inside a DOC: block. DOC: blocks were not escaped thru xml_escape() like other kernel-doc comments were. Fixed that. However, that left a problem with <p> ($blankline_html) being processed thru xml_escape(), converting it to &lt;p&gt;, which isn't good for the generated html output (the <p> should remain unchanged), so this patch also introduces the notion of "local" kernel-doc meta-characters ('\\\\mnemonic:'), which are converted to html just before writing the stream to its output file. Please report any problems that you (anyone) see in "highlighting" in any output mode (text, man, html, xml). Also update copyright to include me.

2007-10-15kbuild: introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-ySam Ravnborg3-7/+17
Introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-y so we soon can deprecate use of EXTRA_CFLAGS, EXTRA_AFLAGS and EXTRA_LDFLAGS. This patch does not touch any in-tree users - thats next round. Lets get this committed first and then fix the users of the soon to be deprecated variants next. The rationale behind this change is to introduce support for makefile fragments like: ccflags-$(CONFIG_WHATEVER_DEBUG) := -DDEBUG As a replacement for the uglier: ifeq ($(CONFIG_WHATEVER_DEBUG),y) EXTRA_CFLAGS := -DDEBUG endif Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

2007-10-14kbuild: check for wrong use of CFLAGSSam Ravnborg1-2/+12
External modules have in a few cases modifed gcc option by modifying CFLAGS. This has never been documented and was a bad practice. With the check to use KBUILD_CFLAGS it will no longer work so we better error out and tell what was wrong as a service to the external module users. This check can be overruled if KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC is set to something. Addid this possibility may allow older external module to build without any code modifications but potentially only loosing some un-important gcc options.

2007-10-12kconfig/menuconfig: distinguish between selected-by-another options and commentsMatej Laitl1-8/+15
menuconfig currently represents options implied by another option ('select' directive in Kconfig) by prefixing them with '---'. Unfortunately the same notation is used for comments. If the implied option is module capable, user can still switch between Y and M, all without any feedback until she visits option's help. (try saying M to MAC80211 and then toggling CFG80211) This patch changes notation of selected-by-another items by introducing 2 new representations for implied options: {*} or {M} for options selected by another modularized one, thus builtin or module capable, -*- or -M- for options that cannot be at the moment changed by user. The idea is to represent actual capability of the option by braces (dashes) around and to always report actual state by * or M inside.

2007-10-12kbuild: call make once for all targets when O=.. is usedMilton Miller1-3/+5
Change the invocations of make in the output directory Makefile and the main Makefile for separate object trees to pass all goals to one $(MAKE) via a new phony target "sub-make" and the existing target _all. When compiling with separate object directories, a separate make is called in the context of another directory (from the output directory the main Makefile is called, the Makefile is then restarted with current directory set to the object tree). Before this patch, when multiple make command goals are specified, each target results in a separate make invocation. With make -j, these invocations may run in parallel, resulting in multiple commands running in the same directory clobbering each others results. I did not try to address make -j for mixed dot-config and no-dot-config targets. Because the order does matter, a solution was not obvious. Perhaps a simple check for MAKEFLAGS having -j and refusing to run would be appropriate. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

2007-10-12kbuild: scripts/ver_linux : correct printing of binutils versionJesper Juhl1-3/+1
Currently scripts/ver_linux prints "Binutils" or other random information for the version number in the "binutils" output line on some distributions. This patch corrects that. When I initially submitted a patch to correct that, I was not aware that the output from "ld -v" could differ as much as it turned out it can, so my original fix turned out to not cover all bases. This patch works correctly with all the different "ld -v" output that people posted in replys to my first patch, so it should be a clear win over what we have currently.

To avoid having to look manually for used but undefined Kconfig variables, I've written a script which tries do this efficiently, in case all other attention fail. It accounts for _MODULE suffix and for UML_ prefixes to Kconfig variable, but otherwise looks for exact matches (i.e. \<CONFIG_; this is done to exclude macros like MMCONFIG_). Undefined Kconfig variables should be not be removed without care, but for instance arch/i386/boot/ uses a bunch of undefined Kconfig vars: $ scripts/checkunknowndefines.sh arch/i386/boot/ arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_400_HACK arch/i386/boot/video-vga.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_400_HACK arch/i386/boot/video.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_RETAIN arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_RETAIN arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_SVGA arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_VESA arch/i386/boot/video-vesa.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_VESA It should also be mentioned in SubmittingPatches and SubmitChecklist.

2007-10-10[NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=nPavel Emelyanov1-0/+1
With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section, thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before. Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot. Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes" for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS is not set to save more space in memory. The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section, as noticed by David, since the init section will have references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already done with the __init_refok.

2007-10-10[SSB]: add Sonics Silicon Backplane bus supportMichael Buesch1-0/+19
SSB is an SoC bus used in a number of embedded devices. The most well-known of these devices is probably the Linksys WRT54G, but there are others as well. The bus is also used internally on the BCM43xx and BCM44xx devices from Broadcom. This patch also includes support for SSB ID tables in modules, so that SSB drivers can be loaded automatically.

2007-09-01kconfig: oldconfig shall not set symbols if it does not need toRoman Zippel1-9/+12
Avoid setting the value if the symbol doesn't need to be changed or can't be changed. Later choices may change the dependencies and thus the possible input range. make oldconfig from a 2.6.22 .config with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU not set was in some configurations setting CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y without asking, even when there was no actual requirement for CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU. This was triggered by SUSPEND_SMP that does a select HOTPLUG_CPU.

2007-08-11update checkpatch.pl to version 0.09Andy Whitcroft1-31/+71
This version brings a number of new checks, and a number of bug fixes. Of note: - checks for spacing on round and square bracket combinations - loosening of the single statement brace checks, to allow them when they contain comments or where other blocks in a compound statement have them. - parks the multple declaration support - allows architecture defines in architecture specific headers Andy Whitcroft (21): Version: 0.09 loosen single statement brace checks fix up multiple declaration to avoid function arguments add some function space parenthesis check exceptions handle EXPORT_'s with parentheses in their names clean up some warnings in multi-line macro bracketing support park the multiple declaration checks make block brace checks count comments as a statement __volatile__ and __extension__ are not functions allow architecture specific defined within architecture includes check spacing on square brackets check spacing on parentheses ensure we apply checks to the part before start comment check #ifdef conditional spacing handle __init_refok and __must_check add noinline to inline checks prevent email addresses from tripping spacing checks handle typed initialiser spacing handle line contination as end of line add bool to the type matcher refine EXPORT_SYMBOL checks to handle pointers Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-07-25kbuild: fix modpost warnings for xtensaSam Ravnborg1-6/+24
The Xtensa architecture places literal pools in sections separate from the instructions. The corresponsing text sections, therefore, reference the .literal section, and we have to suppress those warnings. The naming convention defines the name for a literal section as .SECTION.literal, unless .SECTION is .text. In that case the name is only .literal. Using strncmp() instead of strcmp() to compare the from-section with .SECTION.init.refok in pattern 0 should not cause any regressions for other architectures. We also need to suppress warnings for two informational sections (.xt.lit and .xt.prop) used by the Xtensa architecture.

2007-07-25kbuild: be more foregiving on init section namingSam Ravnborg1-26/+10
In the whitelist function of modpost now use the same check to identify init_section as in other places of modpost. This has the effect that we now recognize sections named .init.text.19 as init sections and we no longer warn when we see these. At the same time make surrounding code readable by dropping use of temporary flags. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
