Jan Engelhardt d84876f9f8 kconfig: allow overriding symbols
Allow config variables in .config to override earlier ones in the same
file. In other words,

	# CONFIG_SECURITY is not defined
	CONFIG_SECURITY=y

will activate it. This makes it a bit easier to do

cat original-config myconfig myconfig2 ... >.config;
and run *config as expected.

Ladislav Michl 09af091f50 kconfig: make kconfig MinGW friendly
Kconfig is powerfull tool. So powerfull that more and more software
projects are using it for configuration. So instead of fixing some of
them one by one, lets fix it in kernel and wait for sync.

This work was originaly done for PTXdist - GPL licensed build system for
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.

* Do not include <sys/wait.h> and <signal.h> (comes from times when
  lxdialog was separate process)
* Do not mess with termios directly and let curses tell screen size.
  Comment to commit c8dc68ad0f says
  check for screen size could be removed later, but because it didn't
  happen for more than year I left it here as well.
* Save cursor position added by Sam

Theodore Ts'o b052ce4c84 kbuild: fix false positive -dirty tag caused by make-kpkg
make-kpkg modifies scripts/package/Makefile and deletes
scripts/package/builddeb as part of its build process.  Ignore these
changes so the tree isn't marked as -dirty, when it is just an
artifact of make-kpkg.  (make-kpkg clean restores the files to their
original state, and these helper scripts won't affect the final
compiled kernel in any way.)

If git's index file is out of date, and some files have been touched
such that their timestamp doesn't what is in the index, "git
diff-index HEAD" may show that a particular file is dirty, when in
fact it really isn't.  Running "git update-index" will update the
index to avoid these false positives.

Theodore Ts'o d882421f4e kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format
Change the automatic local version to have the form -nnnnn-gSHA1SUMID,
where 'nnnnn' is the number of commits since the last tag (i.e.,
2.6.21-rc7).  This makes it much more likely that the package names created
for the kernel will look "newer" to a package manager.

Andreas Mohr 22d6a6a018 kbuild: eradicate bashisms in scripts/patch-kernel
Make the patch-kernel shell script sufficiently compatible with POSIX
shells, i.e., remove bashisms from scripts/patch-kernel.
This means that it now also works on dash 0.5.3-5
and still works on bash 3.1dfsg-8.

Full changelog:
- replaced non-standard "==" by standard "="
- replaced non-standard "source" statement by POSIX "dot" command
- use leading ./ on mktemp filename to force the tempfile to a local
  directory, so that the search path is not used
- replace bash syntax to remove leading dot by similar POSIX syntax
- added missing (optional/not required) $ signs to shell variable names

Sam Ravnborg 9b213118fa kbuild: fix installing external modules
Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> reported:
  Installing external modules is supposed to put them in some path
  under /lib/modules/<version>/extra/subdir/, but this change:
  http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/?PAGE=cset&REV=1.1982.9.23
  makes them go under /lib/modules/<version>/extrasubdir

 (for example, make M=fs/ext3 modules_install puts ext3.ko in
 /lib/modules/<version>/extrafs/ext3.ko)

This was the case only when specifying a trailing slash to M=..

Fixed by removing trailing slash if present so
we correctly match dir part of target.

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.

Nathan Lynch 8998979cc1 fix bloat-o-meter for ppc64
bloat-o-meter assumes that a '.' anywhere in a symbol's name means that it
is static and prepends 'static.' to the first part of the symbol name,
discarding the portion of the name that follows the '.'.  However, the
names of function entry points begin with '.' in the ppc64 ABI.  This
causes all function text size changes to be accounted to a single 'static.'
entry in the output when comparing ppc64 kernels.

Change getsizes() to ignore the first character of the symbol name when

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

  - 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

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.

With this patch you can build for x86_64 in several ways:

2) make ARCH=x86 K64BIT=y
3) make ARCH=x86 menuconfig

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

The variable K64BIT can now be used to select the

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.

Linus Torvalds e8b8c97773 Revert "kconfig: tristate choices with mixed tristate and boolean values"
This reverts commit a5bf3d891a.

David Brownell notes that this causes a regression visible in the
drivers/usb/gadget Kconfig file:

  "That Kconfig hasn't changed (other than adding new drivers), and it's
   worked that way for several years now ...  so the issue seems to be
   changes in menuconfig/kconfig/etc semantics.

   The issue is that when USB_GADGET=m, it's no longer possible to
   configure peripheral controller drivers as modules ...  the
   controller drivers can now only be configured for static linkage.

   It should be making a choice of one of the controller drivers which
   could work on the target system, and allow that driver to be linked
   either as a module (ok iff USB_GADGET=m) or statically."

Reverting this commit resolves the problem, and also fixes a second
problem that David noticed: various dependent options couldn't be enabled.

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

      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

      __kprobes is a type attribute
      typeof is a unary operator
      function open parenthesis checks should check all occurances

Trent Piepho 4b21960f90 kbuild: modpost problem when symbols move from one module to another
When part of build an external module tree, modpost first reads in the
kernel's and then the external tree's Module.symvers files.  From these files
it establishes a symbol => module mapping.  When it later reads in each module
built and processes the symbols it finds, it discovers the symbol=>module
mapping from Module.symvers and leaves it as it is.

The problem comes with a module has been re-named or a symbol has moved from
one module to another, since the Module.symvers file was generated.  modpost
does not update the symbol=>module mapping when it finds the new location of
the symbol when scanning the newly built modules.  This results in the module
containing incorrect dependency information and the new Module.symvers file
written by modpost will also contain the incorrect mappings, perpetuating the
problem to the next build, and so on.

When building the out of kernel development tree for kernel subsystem, like
v4l-dvb or ALSA, deleting the external Module.symvers file before building
(which the kernel build system doesn't do and shouldn't be necessary anyway),
won't fix the problem.  modpost still reads the kernel's Module.symvers, and
since we a building a kernel subsystem, it will define the same symbols as the
external modules.

Randy Dunlap 6b5b55f6c4 kernel-doc: fix doc blocks and html
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.

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

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.

Matej Laitl b5d609dbfa kconfig/menuconfig: distinguish between selected-by-another options and comments
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.

Milton Miller 0b35786d77 kbuild: call make once for all targets when O=.. is used
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.

Previously kbuild choked over the following:

This has resulted in some rather ugly workarounds in

Recently the __extension__ keyword has been introduced in the kernel.
Teach genksyms about this keyword so it can generate correct CRC for

For now only the typedef variant:

	__extension__ typedef ...

is supported.
Later we may add more variants as needed.

Jesper Juhl cc9eefdb9e kbuild: scripts/ver_linux : correct printing of binutils version
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.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 0bce67352b kbuild: script to check for undefined Kconfig symbols
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

Pavel Emelyanov 4665079cbb [NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=n
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.

Sam Ravnborg cb7e51d8b1 kbuild: fix modpost warnings for xtensa
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.

Tejun Heo 9281acea6a kallsyms: make KSYM_NAME_LEN include space for trailing '\0'
KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the
trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating
buffer.  This is nonsense and error-prone.  Moreover, when the caller
forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack
because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero.

This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly.

* off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro
  is fixed.

* Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together,
  MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the
  trailing '\0'.  Fix it.

Paulo Marques 7c5d249ad3 kallsyms: remove usage of memmem and _GNU_SOURCE from scripts/kallsyms.c
The only in-kernel user of "memmem" is scripts/kallsyms.c and it only
uses it to find tokens that are 2 bytes in size. It is trivial to
replace it with a simple function that finds 2-byte tokens.

This should help users from systems that don't have the memmem GNU

Roman Zippel d8982ba1f2 kconfig: reset generated values only if Kconfig and .config agree.
Normally generated values (Kconfig entries without a prompt) are cleared as
they are regenerated anyway and so they appear as new should they become
visible and defaults work as expected (once a value is set defaults aren't
used anymore).

The detection whether a value is generated or not is only based on its
visibility status, which can quickly change for a lot of symbols by just
removing a single line from .config or adding a dependency to Kconfig as you
noticed.

The patch now suppresses this logic when .config and Kconfig aren't in sync
and .config needs to be updated, so that you can remove now a random value
from .config and oldconfig won't reask for many other values.

Create a dedicated vmlinux.o file used only for section mismatch checks
that uses the defualt linker script so section does not get renamed.

The vmlinux.o may later be used as part of the the final link of vmlinux

files all of which are using the same #ifdef guard, "__ASM_STUB_" with no

(often through standard headers like ioctl.h) yields no symbols.

Strangeness with the Ubuntu 'tell me if I support something that's not
explcitly mentioned in POSIX, and I'll strip it out' shell, I believe.

David Woodhouse edd5cd4a94 Introduce fixed sys_sync_file_range2() syscall, implement on PowerPC and ARM
Not all the world is an i386.  Many architectures need 64-bit arguments to be
aligned in suitable pairs of registers, and the original
sys_sync_file_range(int, loff_t, loff_t, int) was therefore wasting an
argument register for padding after the first integer.  Since we don't
normally have more than 6 arguments for system calls, that left no room for
the final argument on some architectures.

Fix this by introducing sys_sync_file_range2(int, int, loff_t, loff_t) which
all fits nicely.  In fact, ARM already had that, but called it
sys_arm_sync_file_range.  Move it to fs/sync.c and rename it, then implement
the needed compatibility routine.  And stop the missing syscall check from
bitching about the absence of sys_sync_file_range() if we've implemented
sys_sync_file_range2() instead.

Tested on PPC32 and with 32-bit and 64-bit userspace on PPC64.

Sam Ravnborg 2648a53acf kbuild: fix sh64 section mismatch problems
There's a special .cranges section that is almost always generated,
with data being moved to the appropriate section by the linker at a later
stage.

To give a bit of background, sh64 has both a native SHmedia instruction
set (32-bit instructions) and SHcompact (which is compatability with
normal SH -- 16-bit, a massively reduced register set, etc.). code ranges
are emitted when we're using the 32-bit ABI, but not the 64-bit one.

It is a special staging section used solely by binutils where code with
different flags get placed (more specifically differing flags for input
and output sections), before being lazily merged by the linker.

The closest I've been able to find to documentation is:
  http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/ld/emultempl/sh64elf.em?rev=1.10&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=src

It's an array of 8-byte Elf32_CRange structure given in
  http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/bfd/elf32-sh64.h?rev=1.4&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=src
that describes for which ISA a range is used.

Silence the warnings by allowing references from .init.text to .cranges.

The following warnings are fixed:

Andy Whitcroft 0a920b5b66 add a trivial patch style checker
We are seeing increasing levels of minor patch style violations in submissions
to the mailing lists as well as making it into the tree.  These detract from
the quality of the submission and cause unnessary work for reviewers.

As a first step package up the current state of the patch style checker and
include it in the kernel tree.  Add instructions suggesting running it on
submissions.  This adds version v0.01 of the checkpatch.pl script.

David Woodhouse df5f6311f1 Make 'headerscheck' stop immediately on an error
This should make it stop immediately after printing the _helpful_ error
message, rather than continuing to spit out many pages more of 'CHECK
include/linux/foo.h' before eventually coming to a halt with something
less obvious.

Now I get this...

This reverts commit f892b7d480, which

I can tell, is the only case where it should even matter!) due to a
SIGSEGV in modpost.
