Impact: add alignment option for recordmcount.pl script
Align the __mcount_loc sections so that architectures with strict
alignment requirements need not worry about performing unaligned
accesses.
This fixes an issue where I was seeing unaligned accesses, which are not
supported on our architecture (the results of an unaligned access are
undefined).

Fix headers_install.pl and headers_check.pl to be compatible with versions
of Perl less than 5.6.0. It has been tested with Perl 5.005_03 and 5.8.8.
I realize this may not be an issue for most people, but there will still
be some that hit it, I imagine. There are three basic issues:
1. Prior to 5.6.0 open() only used 2 arguments, and the versions of
the scripts in 2.6.27.1 use 3.
2. 5.6.0 also introduced the ability to use uninitialized scalar
variables as file handles, which the current scripts make use of.
3. Lastly, 5.6.0 also introduced the pragma 'use warnings'. We can use
the -w switch and be backwards compatible.

setlocalversion used to use an abbreviated git commit sha1 to generate the
tag. This was changed in commit d882421f4e
"kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format"
to use git describe to come up with a tag. Which is nice, but git describe
sometimes can't describe the revision.
Commit 56b2f0706d ("setlocalversion: do not
describe if there is nothing to describe") addressed this, but there is still
no tag generated.
So, generate a plain abbreviated sha1 tag like setlocalversion used to when
git describe comes up short.

doesn't exist or get generated for static libraries.
This patch prevents modpost from looking for a .cmd file when a module is

If you use KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG (even with empty file) you get broken
allmodconfig/allyesconfig; CONFIG_MODULES gets turned off, with obvious
massive fallout.
Breakage had been introduced when conf_set_all_new_symbols() got used
for allmodconfig et.al.
What happens is that sym_calc_value(modules_sym) done in
conf_read_simple() sets SYMBOL_VALID on both modules_sym and MODULES.
When we get to conf_set_all_new_symbols(), we set sym->def[S_DEF_USER]
on everything, but it has no effect on sym->curr for the symbols that
already have SYMBOL_VALID - these are stuck.
Solution: use sym_clear_all_valid() in there. Note that it makes
reevaluation of modules_sym redundant - sym_clear_all_valid() will do
that itself.

Base infrastructure to enable per-module debug messages.
I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes
control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file,
currently, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG,
is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by
defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no
affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set.
The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That
is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls
can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis.
Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define
their own debug levels and flags.
Usage:
Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file,
<debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that
can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows:
<module_name> <enabled=0/1>
.
.
.
<module_name> : Name of the module in which the debug call resides
<enabled=0/1> : whether the messages are enabled or not
For example:
snd_hda_intel enabled=0
fixup enabled=1
driver enabled=0
Enable a module:
$echo "set enabled=1 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules
Disable a module:
$echo "set enabled=0 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules
Enable all modules:
$echo "set enabled=1 all" > dynamic_printk/modules
Disable all modules:
$echo "set enabled=0 all" > dynamic_printk/modules
Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables
debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above
disable command.

When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize
what is going on at which time. In addition, with the fastboot asynchronous
initcall level, it's very valuable to see which initcall gets run where
and when.
This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be
shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change
to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall
(so that the script can work out the parallelism).

The --globalize-symbols option came out in objcopy version 2.17.
If the kernel is being compiled on a system with a lower version of
objcopy, then we can not use the globalize / localize trick to
link to symbols pointing to local functions.
This patch tests the version of objcopy and will only use the trick
if the version is greater than or equal to 2.17. Otherwise, if an
object has only local functions within a section, it will give a
nice warning and recommend the user to upgrade their objcopy.
Leaving the symbols unrecorded is not that big of a deal, since the
mcount record method changes the actual mcount code to be a simple
"ret" without recording registers or anything.

During tests and checks, I've discovered that there were failures to
convert mcount callers into nops. Looking deeper into these failures,
code that was attempted to be changed was not an mcount caller.
The current code only updates if the code being changed is what it expects,
but I still investigate any time there is a failure.
What was happening is that a weak symbol was being used as a reference
for other mcount callers. That weak symbol was also referenced elsewhere
so the offsets were using the strong symbol and not the function symbol
that it was referenced from.
This patch changes the setting up of the mcount_loc section to search
for a global function that is not weak. It will pick a local over a weak
but if only a weak is found in a section, a warning is printed and the
mcount location is not recorded (just to be safe).

This patch creates a section in the kernel called "__mcount_loc".
This will hold a list of pointers to the mcount relocation for
each call site of mcount.
For example:
objdump -dr init/main.o
[...]
Disassembly of section .text:
0000000000000000 <do_one_initcall>:
0: 55 push %rbp
[...]
000000000000017b <init_post>:
17b: 55 push %rbp
17c: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
17f: 53 push %rbx
180: 48 83 ec 08 sub $0x8,%rsp
184: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 189 <init_post+0xe>
185: R_X86_64_PC32 mcount+0xfffffffffffffffc
[...]
We will add a section to point to each function call.
.section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
[...]
.quad .text + 0x185
[...]
The offset to of the mcount call site in init_post is an offset from
the start of the section, and not the start of the function init_post.
The mcount relocation is at the call site 0x185 from the start of the
.text section.
.text + 0x185 == init_post + 0xa
We need a way to add this __mcount_loc section in a way that we do not
lose the relocations after final link. The .text section here will
be attached to all other .text sections after final link and the
offsets will be meaningless. We need to keep track of where these
.text sections are.
To do this, we use the start of the first function in the section.
do_one_initcall. We can make a tmp.s file with this function as a reference
to the start of the .text section.
.section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
[...]
.quad do_one_initcall + 0x185
[...]
Then we can compile the tmp.s into a tmp.o
gcc -c tmp.s -o tmp.o
And link it into back into main.o.
ld -r main.o tmp.o -o tmp_main.o
mv tmp_main.o main.o
But we have a problem. What happens if the first function in a section
is not exported, and is a static function. The linker will not let
the tmp.o use it. This case exists in main.o as well.
Disassembly of section .init.text:
0000000000000000 <set_reset_devices>:
0: 55 push %rbp
1: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
4: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 9 <set_reset_devices+0x9>
5: R_X86_64_PC32 mcount+0xfffffffffffffffc
The first function in .init.text is a static function.
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices
The lowercase 't' means that set_reset_devices is local and is not exported.
If we simply try to link the tmp.o with the set_reset_devices we end
up with two symbols: one local and one global.
.section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
.quad set_reset_devices + 0x10
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices
U set_reset_devices
We still have an undefined reference to set_reset_devices, and if we try
to compile the kernel, we will end up with an undefined reference to
set_reset_devices, or even worst, it could be exported someplace else,
and then we will have a reference to the wrong location.
To handle this case, we make an intermediate step using objcopy.
We convert set_reset_devices into a global exported symbol before linking
it with tmp.o and set it back afterwards.
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices
Now we have a section in main.o called __mcount_loc that we can place
somewhere in the kernel using vmlinux.ld.S and access it to convert
all these locations that call mcount into nops before starting SMP
and thus, eliminating the need to do this with kstop_machine.
Note, A well documented perl script (scripts/recordmcount.pl) is used
to do all this in one location.

This makes modpost handle MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dmi, xxxx).
I had to change the string pointers in the match table to char arrays,
and picked a size of 79 bytes almost at random -- do we need to make it
bigger than that? I was a bit concerned about the 'bloat' this
introduces into the match tables, but they should all be __initdata so
it shouldn't matter too much.
(Actually, modpost does go through the relocations and look at most of
them; it wouldn't be impossible to make it handle string pointers -- but
doesn't seem to be worth the effort, since they're __initdata).

I think the problem comes from "markers: fix duplicate modpost entry"
(commit d35cb360c2)
Especially :
- add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
+ if (!mod->skip)
+ add_marker(mod, marker, fmt);
}

In August 2006 I posted a patch generating a minimal SELinux policy. This
week, David P. Quigley posted an updated version of that as a patch against
the kernel. It also had nice logic for auto-installing the policy.
Following is David's original patch intro (preserved especially
bc it has stats on the generated policies):
se interested in the changes there were only two significant
changes. The first is that the iteration through the list of classes
used NULL as a sentinel value. The problem with this is that the
class_to_string array actually has NULL entries in its table as place
holders for the user space object classes.
The second change was that it would seem at some point the initial sids
table was NULL terminated. This is no longer the case so that iteration
has to be done on array length instead of looking for NULL.
Some statistics on the policy that it generates:
The policy consists of 523 lines which contain no blank lines. Of those
523 lines 453 of them are class, permission, and initial sid
definitions. These lines are usually little to no concern to the policy
developer since they will not be adding object classes or permissions.
Of the remaining 70 lines there is one type, one role, and one user
statement. The remaining lines are broken into three portions. The first
group are TE allow rules which make up 29 of the remaining lines, the
second is assignment of labels to the initial sids which consist of 27
lines, and file system labeling statements which are the remaining 11.
In addition to the policy.conf generated there is a single file_contexts
file containing two lines which labels the entire system with base_t.
This policy generates a policy.23 binary that is 7920 bytes.
(then a few versions later...):
The new policy is 587 lines (stripped of blank lines) with 476 of those
lines being the boilerplate that I mentioned last time. The remaining
111 lines have the 3 lines for type, user, and role, 70 lines for the
allow rules (one for each object class including user space object
classes), 27 lines to assign types to the initial sids, and 11 lines for
file system labeling. The policy binary is 9194 bytes.
Changelog:
Aug 26: Added Documentation/SELinux.txt
Aug 26: Incorporated a set of comments by Stephen Smalley:
1. auto-setup SELINUXTYPE=dummy
2. don't auto-install if selinux is enabled with
non-dummy policy
3. don't re-compute policy version
4. /sbin/setfiles not /usr/sbin/setfiles
Aug 22: As per JMorris comments, made sure make distclean
cleans up the mdp directory.
Removed a check for file_contexts which is now
created in the same file as the check, making it

We are having two kinds of problems with genksyms today: fake checksum
changes without actual ABI changes, and changes which we would rather like
to ignore (such as an additional field at the end of a structure that
modules are not supposed to touch, for example).
I have thought about ways to improve genksyms and compute checksums
differently to avoid those problems, but in the end I don't see a
fundamentally better way. So here are some genksyms patches for at least
making the checksums more easily manageable, if we cannot fully fix them.
In addition to the bugfixes (the first two patches), this allows genksyms
to track checksum changes and report why a checksum changed (third patch),
and to selectively ignore changes (fourth patch).
This patch:
Gcc __attribute__ definitions may occur repeatedly, e.g.,
static int foo __attribute__((__used__))
__attribute__((aligned (16)));
The genksyms parser does not understand this, and generates a syntax error.

make defconfig generated a lot of output
then noone actually read.
Use conf_set_all_new_symbols() to generate the default
configuration and avoid the chatty output.
A typical run now looks like this:
$ make defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'i386_defconfig'
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:13:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol SEMAPHORE_SLEEPERS
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:176:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol PREEMPT_BKL
...
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:1386:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol INSTRUMENTATION

As an added benefit we now clearly see the warnings generated
in the start of the process.

Previously when running "make oldconfig" we saw all the propmt lines
from kconfig and noone actully read this.
With this patch the user will only see output if there is new symbols.
This will be seen as "make oldconfig" runs which does not generate any output.
A typical run now looks like this:
$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
$
If a new symbol is found then we restart the config process like this:
$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
*
* Restart config...
*
*
* General setup
*
Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers (EXPERIMENTAL) [Y/n/?] y
Local version - append to kernel release (LOCALVERSION) []

The bahaviour is similar to what we know when running the implicit
oldconfig target "make silentoldconfig".
"make silentoldconfig" are run as part of the kernel build process
if the configuration has changed.

We see some header files that are selected dependent on
the actual architecture so force a reinstallation
of all header files when the arch changes.
This slows down "make headers_check_all" but then
we better reflect reality.
Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
Move the core functionality of headers_install
and headers_check to two small perl scripts.
The makefile is adapted to use the perl scrip and
changed to operate on all files in a directory.
So if one file is changed then all files in the
directory is processed.
perl were chosen for the helper scripts because this
is pure text processing which perl is good at and
especially the headers_check.pl script are expected to
see changes / new checks implmented.
The speed is ~300% faster on this box.
And the output generated to the screen is now down to
two lines per directory (one for install, one for check)
so it is easier to scroll back after a kernel build.
The perl scripts has been brought to sanity by patient
feedback from: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

Move it to the top-level file to decide if we install/check
the generic headers or the arch specific headers.
This revealed a long standing bug where "make headers_check_all"
relied on the files in asm/ for the current architecture.
So make headers_check_all is now broken by this commit.
In addition:
o add a simpler way to detect if an arch support
exporting header files.
o add 'set -e;' so we error out early if
make headers_check_all fails.
o add sparc64 and cris to arch we do not process
in make headers_*_all because:
sparc64 - use sparc to export headers
cris - is know seriously broken

Currently, checkstack.pl only looks for fixed subtractions from the stack
pointer. However, things like this:
void function(int size)
{
char stackbuster[size << 2];
...
are certainly worth pointing out, I think.
This could perhaps be done more cleanly, and the following patch only
adds "dynamic" REs for x86 and x86_64, but it works:
0x00b0 crypto_cbc_decrypt_inplace [cbc]: Dynamic (%rax)
0x00ad crypto_pcbc_decrypt_inplace [pcbc]: Dynamic (%rax)

Without this patch a powerpc build would error out and fail
to build modules with the added register save/restore module.
There were two obvious solutions:
1) To link the .o file before the modpost stage
2) To ignore the symbols in modpost
Option 1) was ruled out because we do not have any separate
linking stage for single file modules.
This patch implements option 2 - and do so only for powerpc.

- we now intuit new type modifiers, and
- comment handling is much improved

When we introduced support for KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS
we started to include the externam module's kbuild
file when doing the final modpost step.
As external modules often do:
ccflags-y := -I$(src)
We had problems because $(src) was unassinged and
gcc then used the next parameter for -I resulting in
strange build failures.
Fix is to assign $(src) and $(obj) when building
external modules.

These magic greps and hacks in ver_linux to get the gcc version always break after some gcc releases.
Since now gcc >4.3 allows compiling with '--with-pkgversion' ( which can be everything 'My Cool Gcc' or something )
ver_linux will report random junk for these.
Simply use 'gcc -dumpversion' to get the gcc version which should always work.

We currently have a way to add special CFLAGS to code, but we do not have a
way to remove them if needed.
With the case of ftrace, some files should simply not be profiled. Adding
the -pg flag to these files is simply a waste, and adding "notrace" to each
and every function is ugly.
Currently we put in "Makefile turd" [1] to stop the compiler from adding -pg
to certain files. This was clumsy and awkward.
This patch now adds the revese of CFLAGS_(basename).o with
CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o. This allows developers to prevent certain
CFLAGS from being used to compile files. For example, we can now do
CFLAGS_REMOVE_string.o = -pg
to remove the -pg option from the string.o file in the lib directory.
Note: a space delimited list of options may be added to the REMOVE macro.
[1] - what David Miller called the workaronud to remove -pg

1) The field 'len' of the 'gstr' structure seems to track the size of the memory
already allocated for the "growable string". So the value of this field should be
the same as the 'malloc()' just above, shouldn't it ?

Disable modpost warnings for linkonce sections
My build gives lots of warnings like
WARNING: sound/core/snd.o (.gnu.linkonce.wi.mpspec_def.h.30779716): unexpected section name.
The (.[number]+) following section name are ld generated and not expected.
Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file?
Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains
section definitions for use in .S files.
But for .linkonce. duplicated sections are actually ok and expected.
So just disable the warning for this case.

Not all device types need a wildcard at the end of their module
aliases. In particular, for i2c module aliases, the trailing wildcard
is not only unneeded, it could also cause the wrong driver to be
loaded.
As I2C devices have no IDs, i2c module aliases are simple, arbitrary
device names. For example:
$ /sbin/modinfo lm90
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.25-git18/kernel/drivers/hwmon/lm90.ko
author: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
description: LM90/ADM1032 driver
license: GPL
vermagic: 2.6.25-git18 mod_unload
depends: hwmon
alias: i2c:lm90*
alias: i2c:adm1032*
alias: i2c:lm99*
alias: i2c:lm86*
alias: i2c:max6657*
alias: i2c:adt7461*
alias: i2c:max6680*
$
This would cause trouble if one I2C chip name matches the beginning of
another I2C chip name and both chips are supported by different
drivers. For example, an i2c device named lm9042 would cause the lm90
driver to be loaded, while it doesn't support that device. This case
has yet to be seen in practice, but still, I'd like to fix it now. The
cleanest fix is to remove the trailing wildcard from i2c module aliases.
Here's a patch doing this.
Not all device type aliases need a trailing wildcard, in particular
the i2c aliases don't. Don't add a wildcard by default in do_table(),
instead let each device type handler add it if needed.
I have tested types acpi, dmi, eisa, i2c, ide, ieee1394, input, pci,
pcmcia, platform, pnp, scsi, serio, ssb and usb. Other types (ccw, of,
vio, parisc, sdio and virtio) are untested.

Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich.
This patch allows new-style i2c chip drivers to have alias names using
the official kernel aliasing system and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). At this
point, the old i2c driver binding scheme (driver_name/type) is still
supported.

This version brings a few fixes for the extern checks, and a couple of
new checks.
Of note:
- false is now recognised as a 0 assignment in static/external
assignments,
- printf format strings including %L are reported,
- a number of fixes for the extern in .c file detector which had
temporarily lost its ability to detect variables; undetected due to
the loss of its test.
Andy Whitcroft (8):
Version: 0.18
false should trip 0 assignment checks
tests: reinstate missing tests
tests: allow specification of the file extension for a test
fix extern checks for variables
check for and report %Lu, %Ld, and %Li
ensure we only start a statement on lines with some content
extern spacing

This version brings improvements to external declaration detection, fixes to
quote tracking, fixes to unary tracking, some clarification of wording, and
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.
Of note:
- much better unary tracking across preprocessor directives
- UTF8 checks highlight the character at fault
- widening of mutex detection
Andy Whitcroft (17):
Version: 0.17
values: __attribute__ carries through the previous type
quotes: should only follow "positive" lines
clarify the indent tabs over spaces wording
loosen NR_CPUS check for array range initialisers
detect external function declarations without an extern prefix
function declaration arguments should be with the identifier
DEFINE_MUTEX should report in line with struct mutex
NR_CPUS is valid in preprocessor statements
comment detection should not start on the @@ line
types: add support for #undef
tighten mutex/completion reports to usage
allow export of function pointers
values: preprocessor #define is out of line maintain values
values: #define does not always have parentheses
unary '*' may be const
utf8 checks should report location of the invalid character

As choice dependency are now fully checked, it's quite easy to add support
for named choices. This lifts the restriction that a choice value can only
appear once, although it still has to be within the same group,
but multiple choices can be joined by giving them a name.
While at it I cleaned up a little the choice type logic to simplify it a
bit.

I saw this problem recently. With this kernel-doc:
* Note: some important info
*
* Note: other important info
kernel-doc uses the "section name" (preceding the ':', like "Note") as a hash
key for storing the descriptive text ("blah important info"). It is (was)
possible to have duplicate (colliding) section names, without any kind of
warning or error.
kernel-doc happily used the latter descriptive text for all instances of
printing the <section-name> descriptive text and the former important info
was lost.
One way to "fix" this is to modify the kernel-doc comments, e.g.:
* Note1: foo bar
*
* Note.2: blah zay
For now, kernel-doc will signal an error when it sees colliding section names
like this.
