2014-04-07kconfig: make allnoconfig disable options behind EMBEDDED and EXPERTJosh Triplett6-6/+20
"make allnoconfig" exists to ease testing of minimal configurations. Documentation/SubmitChecklist includes a note to test with allnoconfig. This helps catch missing dependencies on common-but-not-required functionality, which might otherwise go unnoticed. However, allnoconfig still leaves many symbols enabled, because they're hidden behind CONFIG_EMBEDDED or CONFIG_EXPERT. For instance, allnoconfig still has CONFIG_PRINTK and CONFIG_BLOCK enabled, so drivers don't typically get build-tested with those disabled. To address this, introduce a new Kconfig option "allnoconfig_y", used on symbols which only exist to hide other symbols. Set it on CONFIG_EMBEDDED (which then selects CONFIG_EXPERT). allnoconfig will then disable all the symbols hidden behind those.

2014-04-03checkpatch.pl: add check for Change-IdChristopher Covington1-0/+6
A commit hook for the Gerrit code review server [1] inserts change identifiers so Gerrit can track patches through multiple revisions. These identifiers are noise in the context of the upstream kernel. (Many Gerrit servers are private. Even given a public instance, given only a Change-Id, one must guess which server a change was tracked on. Patches submitted to the Linux kernel mailing lists should be able to stand on their own. If it's truly useful to reference code review on a Gerrit server, a URL is a much clearer way to do so.) Thus, issue an error when a Change-Id line is encountered before the Signed-off-by. 1. https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit/+/master/gerrit-server/src/main/resources/com/google/gerrit/server/tools/root/hooks/commit-msg Signed-off-by: Christopher Covington <cov@codeaurora.org> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This test is a bit noisy and opinions seem to agree that it should not warn in a lot more situations. It seems people agree that: return (foo || bar); and return foo || bar; are both acceptable style and checkpatch should be silent about them. For now, it warns on parentheses around a simple constant or a single function or a ternary. return (foo); return (foo(bar)); return (foo ? bar : baz); The last ternary test may be quieted in the future.

2014-04-03genksyms: fix typeof() handlingJan Beulich7-384/+498
Recent increased use of typeof() throughout the tree resulted in a number of symbols (25 in a typical distro config of ours) not getting a proper CRC calculated for them anymore, due to the parser in genksyms not coping with several of these uses (interestingly in the majority of [if not all] cases the problem is due to the use of typeof() in code preceding a certain export, not in the declaration/definition of the exported function/object itself; I wasn't able to find a way to address this more general parser shortcoming). The use of parameter_declaration is a little more relaxed than would be ideal (permitting not just a bare type specification, but also one with identifier), but since the same code is being passed through an actual compiler, there's no apparent risk of allowing through any broken code. Otoh using parameter_declaration instead of the ad hoc "decl_specifier_seq '*'" / "decl_specifier_seq" pair allows all types to be handled rather than just plain ones and pointers to plain ones.

2014-03-17kallsyms: fix percpu vars on x86-64 with relocation.Rusty Russell2-0/+25
x86-64 has a problem: per-cpu variables are actually represented by their absolute offsets within the per-cpu area, but the symbols are not emitted as absolute. Thus kallsyms naively creates them as offsets from _text, meaning their values change if the kernel is relocated (especially noticeable with CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE): $ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /root/kallsyms.nokaslr 0000000000000000 D __per_cpu_start 0000000000004000 D gdt_page 0000000000014280 D __per_cpu_end ffffffff810001c8 T _stext ffffffff81ee53c0 D __per_cpu_offset $ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /root/kallsyms.kaslr1 000000001f200000 D __per_cpu_start 000000001f204000 D gdt_page 000000001f214280 D __per_cpu_end ffffffffa02001c8 T _stext ffffffffa10e53c0 D __per_cpu_offset Making them absolute symbols is the Right Thing, but requires fixes to the relocs tool.

2014-03-04kallsyms: fix absolute addresses for kASLRAndy Honig1-2/+1
Currently symbols that are absolute addresses are incorrectly displayed in /proc/kallsyms if the kernel is loaded with kASLR. The problem was that the scripts/kallsyms.c file which generates the array of symbol names and addresses uses an relocatable value for all symbols, even absolute symbols. This patch fixes that. Several kallsyms output in different boot states for comparison: $ egrep '_(stext|_per_cpu_(start|end))' /root/kallsyms.nokaslr 0000000000000000 D __per_cpu_start 0000000000014280 D __per_cpu_end ffffffff810001c8 T _stext $ egrep '_(stext|_per_cpu_(start|end))' /root/kallsyms.kaslr1 000000001f200000 D __per_cpu_start 000000001f214280 D __per_cpu_end ffffffffa02001c8 T _stext $ egrep '_(stext|_per_cpu_(start|end))' /root/kallsyms.kaslr2 000000000d400000 D __per_cpu_start 000000000d414280 D __per_cpu_end ffffffff8e4001c8 T _stext $ egrep '_(stext|_per_cpu_(start|end))' /root/kallsyms.kaslr-fixed 0000000000000000 D __per_cpu_start 0000000000014280 D __per_cpu_end ffffffffadc001c8 T _stext Signed-off-by: Andy Honig <ahonig@google.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2014-03-04scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh: fix flags for initramfs LZ4 compressionDaniel M. Weeks1-1/+1
LZ4 as implemented in the kernel differs from the default method now used by the reference implementation of LZ4. Until the in-kernel method is updated to support the new default, passing the legacy flag (-l) to the compressor is necessary. Without this flag the kernel-generated, LZ4-compressed initramfs is junk. Kyungsik said: : It seems that lz4 supports legacy format with the same option as lz4c : does. Just looking at the first few bytes of lz4 compressed image, we can : see whether it is new format or not. : : It shows new format magic number without this patch. New format magic : number is 0x184d2204. : : $ hexdump -C ./initramfs_data.cpio.lz4 |more : 00000000 04 22 4d 18 64 70 b9 69 (Little Endian) : ... : : Currently kernel supports legacy format only.

2014-02-20kbuild: dtbs_install: new make targetJason Cooper1-0/+12
Unlike other build products in the Linux kernel, there is no 'make *install' mechanism to put devicetree blobs in a standard place. This commit adds a new 'dtbs_install' make target which copies all of the dtbs into the INSTALL_DTBS_PATH directory. INSTALL_DTBS_PATH can be set before calling make to change the default install directory. If not set then it defaults to: $INSTALL_PATH/dtbs/$KERNELRELEASE. This is done to keep dtbs from different kernel versions separate until things have settled down. Once the dtbs are stable, and not so strongly linked to the kernel version, the devicetree files will most likely move to their own repo. Users will need to upgrade install scripts at that time. v7: (reworked by Grant Likely) - Moved rules from arch/arm/Makefile to arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile so that each dtb install could have a separate target and be reported as part of the make output. - Fixed dependency problem to ensure $KERNELRELEASE is calculated before attempting to install - Removed option to call external script. Copying the files should be sufficient and a build system can post-process the install directory. Despite the fact an external script is used for installing the kernel, I don't think that is a pattern that should be encouraged. I would rather see buildroot type tools post process the install directory to rename or move dtb files after installing to a staging directory. - Plus it is easy to add a hook after the fact without blocking the rest of this feature. - Move the helper targets into scripts/Makefile.lib with the rest of the common dtb rules Signed-off-by: Jason Cooper <jason@lakedaemon.net> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@linaro.org> Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Cc: Russell King <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Rob Herring <robh+dt@kernel.org>
2014-02-20of: Move testcase FDT data into drivers/ofGrant Likely1-0/+1
The testcase data is usable by any platform. This patch moves it into the drivers/of directory so it can be included by any architecture. Using the test cases requires manually adding #include <testcases.dtsi> to the end of the boards .dtsi file and enabling CONFIG_OF_SELFTEST. Not pretty though. A useful project would be to make the testcase code easier to execute. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@linaro.org>
2014-02-18x86: align x86 arch with generic CPU modalias handlingArd Biesheuvel1-5/+5
The x86 CPU feature modalias handling existed before it was reimplemented generically. This patch aligns the x86 handling so that it (a) reuses some more code that is now generic; (b) uses the generic format for the modalias module metadata entry, i.e., it now uses 'cpu:type:x86,venVVVVfamFFFFmodMMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' instead of the 'x86cpu:vendor:VVVV:family:FFFF:model:MMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' that was used before.

2014-02-18cpu: add generic support for CPU feature based module autoloadingArd Biesheuvel2-0/+13
This patch adds support for advertising optional CPU features over udev using the modalias, and for declaring compatibility with/dependency upon such a feature in a module. The mapping between feature numbers and actual features should be provided by the architecture in a file called <asm/cpufeature.h> which exports the following functions/macros: - cpu_feature(FEAT), a preprocessor macro that maps token FEAT to a numeric index; - bool cpu_have_feature(n), returning whether this CPU has support for feature #n; - MAX_CPU_FEATURES, an upper bound for 'n' in the previous function. The feature can then be enabled by setting CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE for the architecture. For instance, a module that registers its module init function using module_cpu_feature_match(FEAT_X, module_init_function) will be probed automatically when the CPU's support for the 'FEAT_X' feature is advertised over udev, and will only allow the module to be loaded by hand if the 'FEAT_X' feature is supported.
