Dwaipayan Ray 1db81a682a checkpatch: add new exception to repeated word check
Recently, commit 4f6ad8aa1eac ("checkpatch: move repeated word test")
moved the repeated word test to check for more file types. But after
this, if checkpatch.pl is run on MAINTAINERS, it generates several
new warnings of the type:

  WARNING: Possible repeated word: 'git'

For example:

  WARNING: Possible repeated word: 'git'
  +T:	git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/uml.git

So, the pattern "git git://..." is a false positive in this case.

There are several other combinations which may produce a wrong warning
message, such as "@size size", ":Begin begin", etc.

Extend repeated word check to compare the characters before and after
the word matches.

If there is a non whitespace character before the first word or a non
whitespace character excluding punctuation characters after the second
word, then the check is skipped and the warning is avoided.

Also add case insensitive word matching to the repeated word check.

Dwaipayan Ray 48ca2d8ac8 checkpatch: add new warnings to author signoff checks.
The author signed-off-by checks are currently very vague.  Cases like same
name or same address are not handled separately.

For example, running checkpatch on commit be6577af0c ("parisc: Add
atomic64_set_release() define to avoid CPU soft lockups"), gives:

WARNING: Missing Signed-off-by: line by nominal patch author
'John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net>'

The signoff line was:
"Signed-off-by: Dave Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net>"

Clearly the author has signed off but with a slightly different version
of his name. A more appropriate warning would have been to point out
at the name mismatch instead.

Previously, the values assumed by $authorsignoff were either 0 or 1
to indicate whether a proper sign off by author is present.
Extended the checks to handle four new cases.

$authorsignoff values now denote the following:

0: Missing sign off by patch author.

1: Sign off present and identical.

2: Addresses and names match, but comments differ.
   "James Watson(JW) <james@gmail.com>", "James Watson <james@gmail.com>"

3: Addresses match, but names are different.
   "James Watson <james@gmail.com>", "James <james@gmail.com>"

4: Names match, but addresses are different.
   "James Watson <james@watson.com>", "James Watson <james@gmail.com>"

5: Names match, addresses excluding subaddress details (RFC 5233) match.
   "James Watson <james@gmail.com>", "James Watson <james+a@gmail.com>"

Also introduced a new message type FROM_SIGN_OFF_MISMATCH
for cases 2, 3, 4 and 5.

To avoid false positives in presence of SPDX-License-Identifier in
networking files it is required to increase the leeway for empty block

    /*

Dwaipayan Ray 2e44e8033a checkpatch: fix multi-statement macro checks for while blocks.
Checkpatch.pl doesn't have a check for excluding while (...) {...} blocks
from MULTISTATEMENT_MACRO_USE_DO_WHILE error.

For example, running checkpatch.pl on the file mm/maccess.c in the kernel
generates the following error:

ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parentheses
+#define copy_from_kernel_nofault_loop(dst, src, len, type, err_label)  \
+       while (len >= sizeof(type)) {                                   \
+               __get_kernel_nofault(dst, src, type, err_label);        \
+               dst += sizeof(type);                                    \
+               src += sizeof(type);                                    \
+               len -= sizeof(type);                                    \
+       }

The error is misleading for this case.  Enclosing it in parentheses
doesn't make any sense.

Checkpatch already has an exception list for such common macro types.
Added a new exception for while (...) {...} style blocks to the same.

In addition, the brace flatten logic was modified by changing the
substitution characters from "1" to "1u".  This was done to ensure that
macros in the form "#define foo(bar) while(bar){bar--;}" were also
correctly procecssed.

Dwaipayan Ray e7f929f3ca checkpatch: extend author Signed-off-by check for split From: header
Checkpatch did not handle cases where the author From: header was split
into multiple lines.  The author identity could not be resolved and
checkpatch generated a false NO_AUTHOR_SIGN_OFF warning.

A typical example is commit e33bcbab16 ("tee: add support for session's
client UUID generation").  When checkpatch was run on this commit, it
displayed:

"WARNING:NO_AUTHOR_SIGN_OFF: Missing Signed-off-by: line by nominal
patch author ''"

This was due to split header lines not being handled properly and the
author himself wrote in commit cd2614967d ("checkpatch: warn if missing
author Signed-off-by"):

"Split From: headers are not fully handled: only the first part
is compared."

Support split From: headers by correctly parsing the header extension
lines.  RFC 5322, Section-2.2.3 stated that each extended line must start
with a WSP character (a space or htab).  The solution was therefore to
concatenate the lines which start with a WSP to get the correct long
header.

Joe Perches 99ca38c2aa checkpatch: warn on self-assignments
The uninitialized_var() macro was removed recently via commit 63a0895d96
("compiler: Remove uninitialized_var() macro") as it's not a particularly
useful warning and its use can "paper over real bugs".

Add a checkpatch test to warn on self-assignments as a means to avoid
compiler warnings and as a back-door mechanism to reproduce the old
uninitialized_var macro behavior.

Joe Perches 40873aba2c checkpatch: add test for comma use that should be semicolon
There are commas used as statement terminations that should typically have
used semicolons instead.  Only direct assignments or use of a single
function or value on a single line are detected by this test.

e.g.:
	foo = bar(),		/* typical use is semicolon not comma */
	bar = baz();

Add an imperfect test to detect these comma uses.

No false positives were found in testing, but many types of false
negatives are possible.

e.g.:
	foo = bar() + 1,	/* comma use, but not direct assignment */
	bar = baz();

Jerome Forissier 3e89ad8506 checkpatch: add --kconfig-prefix
Kconfig allows to customize the CONFIG_ prefix via the $CONFIG_
environment variable.  Out-of-tree projects may therefore use Kconfig with
a different prefix, or they may use a custom configuration tool which does
not use the CONFIG_ prefix at all.  Such projects may still want to adhere
to the Linux kernel coding style and run checkpatch.pl.

One example is OP-TEE [1] which does not use Kconfig but does have
configuration options prefixed with CFG_.  It also mostly follows the
kernel coding style and therefore being able to use checkpatch is quite
valuable.

To make this possible, add the --kconfig-prefix command line option.

Mrinal Pandey 13e45417ce checkpatch: fix the usage of capture group ( ... )
The usage of "capture group (...)" in the immediate condition after `&&`
results in `$1` being uninitialized.  This issues a warning "Use of
uninitialized value $1 in regexp compilation at ./scripts/checkpatch.pl
line 2638".

I noticed this bug while running checkpatch on the set of commits from
v5.7 to v5.8-rc1 of the kernel on the commits with a diff content in
their commit message.

This bug was introduced in the script by commit e518e9a59e
("checkpatch: emit an error when there's a diff in a changelog").  It
has been in the script since then.

The author intended to store the match made by capture group in variable
`$1`.  This should have contained the name of the file as `[\w/]+`
matched.  However, this couldn't be accomplished due to usage of capture
group and `$1` in the same regular expression.

Fix this by placing the capture group in the condition before `&&`.
Thus, `$1` can be initialized to the text that capture group matches
thereby setting it to the desired and required value.

Quentin Monnet ced69da1db checkpatch: fix CONST_STRUCT when const_structs.checkpatch is missing
Checkpatch reports warnings when some specific structs are not declared as
const in the code.  The list of structs to consider was initially defined
in the checkpatch.pl script itself, but it was later moved to an external
file (scripts/const_structs.checkpatch), in commit bf1fa1dae6
("checkpatch: externalize the structs that should be const").  This
introduced two minor issues:

- When file scripts/const_structs.checkpatch is not present (for
  example, if checkpatch is run outside of the kernel directory with the
  "--no-tree" option), a warning is printed to stderr to tell the user
  that "No structs that should be const will be found". This is fair,
  but the warning is printed unconditionally, even if the option
  "--ignore CONST_STRUCT" is passed. In the latter case, we explicitly
  ask checkpatch to skip this check, so no warning should be printed.

- When scripts/const_structs.checkpatch is missing, or even when trying
  to silence the warning by adding an empty file, $const_structs is set
  to "", and the regex used for finding structs that should be const,
  "$line =~ /struct\s+($const_structs)(?!\s*\{)/)", matches all
  structs found in the code, thus reporting a number of false positives.

Let's fix the first item by skipping scripts/const_structs.checkpatch
processing if "CONST_STRUCT" checks are ignored, and the second one by
skipping the test if $const_structs is not defined. Since we modify the
read_words() function a little bit, update the checks for
$typedefsfile/$typeOtherTypedefs as well.

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], partially revert
commit 16b7f3c899 ("checkpatch: avoid warning about uninitialized_var()")
and remove all remaining mentions of uninitialized_var().

Linus Torvalds b791d1bdf9 The Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN)
KCSAN is a dynamic race detector, which relies on compile-time
 instrumentation, and uses a watchpoint-based sampling approach to detect
 races.
 
 The feature was under development for quite some time and has already found
 legitimate bugs.
 
 Unfortunately it comes with a limitation, which was only understood late in
 the development cycle:
 
   It requires an up to date CLANG-11 compiler
 
 CLANG-11 is not yet released (scheduled for June), but it's the only
 compiler today which handles the kernel requirements and especially the
 annotations of functions to exclude them from KCSAN instrumentation
 correctly.
 
 These annotations really need to work so that low level entry code and
 especially int3 text poke handling can be completely isolated.
 
 A detailed discussion of the requirements and compiler issues can be found
 here:
 
   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CANpmjNMTsY_8241bS7=XAfqvZHFLrVEkv_uM4aDUWE_kh3Rvbw@mail.gmail.com/
 
 We came to the conclusion that trying to work around compiler limitations
 and bugs again would end up in a major trainwreck, so requiring a working
 compiler seemed to be the best choice.
 
 For Continous Integration purposes the compiler restriction is manageable
 and that's where most xxSAN reports come from.
 
 For a change this limitation might make GCC people actually look at their
 bugs. Some issues with CSAN in GCC are 7 years old and one has been 'fixed'
 3 years ago with a half baken solution which 'solved' the reported issue
 but not the underlying problem.
 
 The KCSAN developers also ponder to use a GCC plugin to become independent,
 but that's not something which will show up in a few days.
 
 Blocking KCSAN until wide spread compiler support is available is not a
 really good alternative because the continuous growth of lockless
 optimizations in the kernel demands proper tooling support.

Geert Uytterhoeven c7f574d0e9 checkpatch: use patch subject when reading from stdin
While "git am" can apply an mbox file containing multiple patches (e.g.
as created by b4[1], or a patch bundle downloaded from patchwork),
checkpatch does not have proper support for that.  When operating on an
mbox, checkpatch will merge all detected tags, and complain falsely about
duplicates:

    WARNING: Duplicate signature

As modifying checkpatch to reset state in between each patch is a lot of
work, a simple solution is splitting the mbox into individual patches, and
invoking checkpatch for each of them.  Fortunately checkpatch can read a
patch from stdin, so the classic "formail" tool can be used to split the
mbox, and pipe all individual patches to checkpatch:

    formail -s scripts/checkpatch.pl < my-mbox

However, when reading a patch file from standard input, checkpatch calls
it "Your patch", and reports its state as:

    Your patch has style problems, please review.

or:

    Your patch has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission.

Hence it can be difficult to identify which patches need to be reviewed
and improved.

Fix this by replacing "Your patch" by (the first line of) the email
subject, if present.

Note that "git mailsplit" can also be used to split an mbox, but it will
create individual files for each patch, thus requiring cleanup afterwards.
Formail does not have this disadvantage.

xdp_umem.c had overlapping changes between the 64-bit math fix
for the calculation of npgs and the removal of the zerocopy
memory type which got rid of the chunk_size_nohdr member.

The mlx5 Kconfig conflict is a case where we just take the
net-next copy of the Kconfig entry dependency as it takes on
the ESWITCH dependency by one level of indirection which is
what the 'net' conflicting change is trying to ensure.

Joe Perches bdc48fa11e checkpatch/coding-style: deprecate 80-column warning
Yes, staying withing 80 columns is certainly still _preferred_.  But
it's not the hard limit that the checkpatch warnings imply, and other
concerns can most certainly dominate.

Increase the default limit to 100 characters.  Not because 100
characters is some hard limit either, but that's certainly a "what are
you doing" kind of value and less likely to be about the occasional
slightly longer lines.

Miscellanea:

 - to avoid unnecessary whitespace changes in files, checkpatch will no
   longer emit a warning about line length when scanning files unless
   --strict is also used

 - Add a bit to coding-style about alignment to open parenthesis

Jakub Kicinski 6b9ea5ff5a checkpatch: warn about uses of ENOTSUPP
ENOTSUPP often feels like the right error code to use, but it's
in fact not a standard Unix error. E.g.:

$ python
>>> import errno
>>> errno.errorcode[errno.ENOTSUPP]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'errno' has no attribute 'ENOTSUPP'

There were numerous commits converting the uses back to EOPNOTSUPP
but in some cases we are stuck with the high error code for backward
compatibility reasons.

Let's try prevent more ENOTSUPPs from getting into the kernel.

Recent example:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200510182252.GA411829@lunn.ch/

v3 (Joe):
 - fix the "not file" condition.

v2 (Joe):
 - add a link to recent discussion,
 - don't match when scanning files, not patches to avoid sudden
   influx of conversion patches.

Antonio Borneo 713a09de9c checkpatch: add command-line option for TAB size
Linux kernel coding style requires a size of 8 characters for both TAB and
indentation, and such value is embedded as magic value allover the
checkpatch script.

This makes hard to reuse the script by other projects with different
requirements in their coding style (e.g.  OpenOCD [1] requires TAB size of
4 characters [2]).

Replace the magic value 8 with a variable.

Add a command-line option "--tab-size" to let the user select a
TAB size value other than 8.

Antonio Borneo 7b18496cbc checkpatch: fix multiple const * types
Commit 1574a29f8e ("checkpatch: allow multiple const * types") claims to
support repetition of pattern "const *", but it actually allows only one
extra instance.

Check the following lines
	int a(char const * const x[]);
	int b(char const * const *x);
	int c(char const * const * const x[]);
	int d(char const * const * const *x);

with command

	./scripts/checkpatch.pl --show-types -f filename

to find that only the first line passes the test, while a warning
is triggered by the other 3 lines:

	WARNING:FUNCTION_ARGUMENTS: function definition argument
	'char const * const' should also have an identifier name

The reason is that the pattern match halts at the second asterisk in the
line, thus the remaining text starting with asterisk fails to match a
valid name for a variable.

Fixed by replacing "?" (Match 1 or 0 times) with "{0,4}" (Match no more
than 4 times) in the regular expression.  Fix also the similar test for
types in unusual order.

John Hubbard a8972573eb checkpatch: support "base-commit:" format
In order to support the get-lore-mbox.py tool described in [1], I ran:

    git format-patch --base=<commit> --cover-letter <revrange>

...  which generated a "base-commit: <commit-hash>" tag at the end of the
cover letter.  However, checkpatch.pl generated an error upon encounting
"base-commit:" in the cover letter:

    "ERROR: Please use git commit description style..."

...  because it found the "commit" keyword, and failed to recognize that
it was part of the "base-commit" phrase, and as such, should not be
subjected to the same commit description style rules.

Update checkpatch.pl to include a special case for "base-commit:" (at the
start of the line, possibly with some leading whitespace) so that that tag
no longer generates a checkpatch error.

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.

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.

Geert Uytterhoeven 33aa4597dd checkpatch: update section keywords
As of commit bd721ea73e ("treewide: replace obsolete _refok by
__ref"), __init_refok no longer exists, so it can be removed.  While at
it, add the modern variants that were still missing.

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
sys	0m0.025s

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

real	0m13.330s
user	0m13.282s
sys	0m0.049s
