Joe Perches cd28b11904 checkpatch: reduce is_maintained_obsolete lookup runtime
The is_maintained_obsolete function can be called twice using the same
filename.  This function spawns a process using get_maintainer.pl.
Store the status of each filename when spawned and use the stored result
to eliminate the spawning of unnecessary duplicate child processes.

Example:

old:

  $ time ./scripts/checkpatch.pl hp100-Move-to-staging.patch > /dev/null

  real	0m1.767s
  user	0m1.634s
  sys	0m0.141s

new:

  $ time ./scripts/checkpatch.pl hp100-Move-to-staging.patch > /dev/null

  real	0m1.184s
  user	0m1.085s
  sys	0m0.103s

Joe Perches d439e6a5d7 checkpatch: improve ignoring CamelCase SI style variants like mA
Ignore all upper-case variants before and after SI units like mA, mV and
uV so uses like RANGE_mA do not emit a CAMELCASE message.

Sakari Ailus 3bd32d6a2e lib/vsprintf: Add %pfw conversion specifier for printing fwnode names
Add support for %pfw conversion specifier (with "f" and "P" modifiers) to
support printing full path of the node, including its name ("f") and only
the node's name ("P") in the printk family of functions. The two flags
have equivalent functionality to existing %pOF with the same two modifiers
("f" and "P") on OF based systems. The ability to do the same on ACPI
based systems is added by this patch.

On ACPI based systems the resulting strings look like

	\_SB.PCI0.CIO2.port@1.endpoint@0

where the nodes are separated by a dot (".") and the first three are
ACPI device nodes and the latter two ACPI data nodes.

git output parsing depends on the language being en_US english.

Make the backtick execution of all `git <foo>` commands set the
LANGUAGE of the process to en_US.utf8 before executing the actual
command using `export LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8; git <foo>`.

Because the command is executed in a child process, the parent
LANGUAGE is unchanged.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 458f69ef36 docs: timers: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst
The conversion here is really trivial: just a bunch of title
markups and very few puntual changes is enough to make it to
be parsed by Sphinx and generate a nice html.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Vadim Bendebury 98005e8c74 checkpatch: allow reporting C99 style comments
Presently C99 style comments are removed unconditionally before actual
patch validity check happens.  This is a problem for some third party
projects which use checkpatch.pl but do not allow C99 style comments.

This patch adds yet another variable, named C99_COMMENT_TOLERANCE.  If
it is included in the --ignore command line or config file options list,
C99 comments in the patch are reported as errors.

Tested by processing a patch with a C99 style comment, it passes the
check just fine unless '--ignore C99_COMMENT_TOLERANCE' is present in
.checkpatch.conf.

Joe Perches e29a70f153 checkpatch: add some new alloc functions to various tests
Many new generic allocation functions like the kvmalloc family have been
added recently to the kernel.

The allocation functions test now includes:

o kvmalloc and variants
o kstrdup_const
o kmemdup_nul
o dma_alloc_coherent
o alloc_skb and variants

Add a separate $allocFunctions variable to help make the allocation
functions test a bit more readable.

Miscellanea:

o Use $allocFunctions in the unnecessary OOM message test and
  add exclude uses with __GFP_NOWARN
o Use $allocFunctions in the unnecessary cast test
o Add the kvmalloc family to the preferred sizeof alloc style
  foo = kvmalloc(sizeof(*foo), ...)

Rob Herring 133712a2ec checkpatch: DT bindings should be a separate patch
Devicetree bindings should be their own patch as documented in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt section I.1.
This is because bindings are logically independent from a driver
implementation, they have a different maintainer (even though they often
are applied via the same tree), and it makes for a cleaner history in the
DT only tree created with git-filter-branch.

Joe Perches 5629411279 checkpatch: fix SPDX license check with --root=<path>
checkpatch uses the in-kernel script spdxcheck.py to validate the specific
license in a file or script.

This check can currently fail for a couple reasons:

o spdxcheck.py assumes the existence of git tree that may not
  exist for a bare source tree from something like a tarball
o the spdxcheck.py must be run from the top level root directory

So add a git existence test and set the subprocess subdirectory.

Joe Perches 8c8c45cfdd checkpatch: fix macro argument reuse test
Multiple line macro definitions where the arguments are separated by line
continuations can cause checkpatch to emit invalid syntax regex tests.

This can occur when a single argument is modified in a part of a patch.

For example: (to not add a diff in the commit message)

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --git db023296f0
Unterminated \g... pattern in regex; <very long regex omitted>

And, the test does not work correctly when these arguments are all new as
the initial patch line addition "+" is used in the argument name.

Fix this by stripping the line continuations and any "+" from the list of
arguments.

Joe Perches 5b57980de6 checkpatch: improve runtime execution speed a little
checkpatch repeatedly uses a runtime minimum version check that validates
the minimum perl version required for a regex match by using a "$^V ge
5.10.0" runtime string match.

Only perform that minimum version test once and store the result to reduce
string matching time.

This reduces runtime execution time for patches or files with high line
counts.

An example runtime improvement:

new: $ time ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_main.c > /dev/null

real	0m11.856s
user	0m11.831s

A struct with a bool member can have different sizes on various
architectures because neither bool size nor alignment is standardized.

So emit a message on the use of bool in structs only in .h files and not
.c files.

There is the real possibility that this test could have a false positive
when a bool is declared as an automatic, so limit the test to .h files
where the only false positive is for declarations in static inline
functions.

It may not be the actual real stable mailing list address, but the
stable scripts to actually pick up on the traditional way to mark stable
patches.

There are also reasons to explicitly avoid using the actual mailing list
address, since security patches with embargo dates generally do want the
stable marking, but don't want tools etc to mistakenly send the patch
out to the mailing list early.

So don't warn for things that are still actively used and explicitly

Ulf Magnusson 84af7a6194 checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'
IMO, we should discourage '---help---' for new help texts, even in cases
where it would be consistent with other help texts in the file. This
will help if we ever want to get rid of '---help---' in the future.

Also simplify the code to only check for exactly '---help---'. Since
commit c2264564df ("kconfig: warn of unhandled characters in Kconfig
commands"), '---help---' is a proper keyword and can only appear in that
form. Prior to that commit, '---help---' working was more of a syntactic
quirk.

Ulf Magnusson 678ae162dd checkpatch: kconfig: check help texts for menuconfig and choice
Currently, only Kconfig symbols are checked for a missing or short help
text, and are only checked if they are defined with the 'config'
keyword.

To make the check more general, extend it to also check help texts for
choices and for symbols defined with the 'menuconfig' keyword.

This increases the accuracy of the check for symbols that would already
have been checked as well, since e.g. a 'menuconfig' symbol after a help
text will be recognized as ending the preceding symbol/choice
definition.

To increase the accuracy of the check further, also recognize 'if',
'endif', 'menu', 'endmenu', 'endchoice', and 'source' as ending a
symbol/choice definition.

Arnd Bergmann 4ba66a9760 arch: remove blackfin port
The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather
active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill
over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up.

Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant,
and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because
of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of
duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when
doing cross-architecture changes.

Allow lines with URL to exceed the 80 char limit for improved interaction
in adaption to ongoing but undocumented practice.

  $ git grep -E '://\S{77}.*' -- '*.[ch]'

As per RFC3986 [1], the URL format allows for alphanum, +, - and .
characters in the scheme before the separator :// as long as it starts
with a letter (e.g.  https, git, f.-+).

Recognition of URIs without more context information is prone to false
positives and thus currently left out of the heuristics.

$rawline is used in the check as comments are removed from $line.

Linus Torvalds ab486bc9a5 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Add a console_msg_format command line option:

     The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
     value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
     level>[timestamp] text" format.

     This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
     example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
     at hands.

 - Reduce the risk of softlockup:

     Pass the console owner in a busy loop.

     This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
     Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
     the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
     On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
     a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
     console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
     the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
     waiter.

     The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
     Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
     when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
     much to flush.

     There is increasing number of people having problems with
     printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
     solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
     direction.

 - Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():

     This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
     to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
     This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
     above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.

 - Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:

     It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
     descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
     transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.

     Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
     a special elf section and could be easily detected.

 - Remove printk_symbol() API:

     It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
     helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.

 - Remove redundant memsets:

     Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
     command line option.

Tobin C. Harding 7b1924a1d9 vsprintf: add printk specifier %px
printk specifier %p now hashes all addresses before printing. Sometimes
we need to see the actual unmodified address. This can be achieved using
%lx but then we face the risk that if in future we want to change the
way the Kernel handles printing of pointers we will have to grep through
the already existent 50 000 %lx call sites. Let's add specifier %px as a
clear, opt-in, way to print a pointer and maintain some level of
isolation from all the other hex integer output within the Kernel.

Add printk specifier %px to print the actual unmodified address.

Joe Perches 5751a24edf checkpatch: add --strict test for lines ending in [ or (
Lines that end in an open bracket or open parenthesis are generally hard
to follow.  Lines following those ending with open parenthesis are also
rarely aligned to that open parenthesis.

Suggest not ending lines with '[' or '('

Joe Perches cc147506be checkpatch: allow DEFINE_PER_CPU definitions to exceed line length
Some of the definitions are very long and can't be split into multiple
lines because ctags is limited.

Exempt these lines from the line length checks.

See commit 25528213fe ("tags: Fix DEFINE_PER_CPU expansions") for more
details.

exit( should be treated like return.

Stafford Horne a08ffbef4a checkpatch: fix ignoring cover-letter logic
Currently running checkpatch on a directory with a cover-letter.patch
file reports the following error:

  -----------------------------------------
  patches/smp-v2/v2-0000-cover-letter.patch
  -----------------------------------------

  ERROR: Does not appear to be a unified-diff format patch

The logic to suppress the unified-diff check for cover letters is there
but is checking $file instead of $filename.  Fix the variable to use the
correct one.

Jean Delvare 0547fa5851 checkpatch: add 6 missing types to --list-types
Unlike all other types, LONG_LINE, LONG_LINE_COMMENT and LONG_LINE_STRING
are passed to WARN() through a variable.  This causes the parser in
list_types() to miss them and consequently they are not present in the
output of --list-types.

Additionally, types TYPO_SPELLING, FSF_MAILING_ADDRESS and AVOID_BUG are
passed with a variable level, causing the parser to miss them too.

So modify the regex to also catch these special cases.

Jean Delvare 0675a8fbd7 checkpatch: rename variables to avoid confusion
The variable name "$msg_type" is sometimes used to set the message type,

confusing.  Use "$msg_level" in the latter case instead, to make the code
clearer.
