2007-07-17kallsyms: make KSYM_NAME_LEN include space for trailing '\0'Tejun Heo1-2/+2
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.

This version brings a number of new checks, fixes for flase positives, plus a clarification of the output to better guide use. Of note: - checks for documentation for new __setup calls - clearer reporting where braces and parenthesis are involved - reports for closing brace and semi-colon spacing - reports on unwanted externs This patch includes an update to the documentation on checkpatch.pl itself to clarify when it should be used and to indicate that it is not intended as the final arbitor of style.

2007-07-06x86_64: fix headers_installDavid Woodhouse1-1/+1
A bug in headers_install for ARCH=x86_64 yields an asm/ directory full of files all of which are using the same #ifdef guard, "__ASM_STUB_" with no postfix. So the second and later asm files #included in the same C file (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.

2007-06-28Introduce fixed sys_sync_file_range2() syscall, implement on PowerPC and ARMDavid Woodhouse1-0/+5
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.

2007-06-11kbuild: fix sh64 section mismatch problemsSam Ravnborg1-0/+2
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.

So the MODALIAS stored in the module must have wilcard before and after the compatible entry.

2007-05-08kernel-doc: handle arrays with arithmetic expressions as initializersBorislav Petkov1-1/+10
In a different approach here's a patch that handles the special case of composite arithmetic expressions in array size initializers. With it, prior to pushing the split strings on the @first_arg array, I split the keywords before the array name as before and then keep the array name along with the subscript expression as a single whole element which gets pushed last. In this manner, kernel-doc produces correct output without removing whitespaces which makes the array subscripts unreadable in the docs.

2007-05-08Add white list into modpost.c for memory hotplug code and ia64's machvec sectionYasunori Goto1-0/+27
This patch is add white list into modpost.c for some functions and ia64's section to fix section mismatchs. sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() calls bootmem allocator at boot time, and kmalloc/vmalloc at hotplug time. If config memory hotplug is on, there are references of bootmem allocater(init text) from them (normal text). This is cause of section mismatch. Bootmem is called by many functions and it must be used only at boot time. I think __init of them should keep for section mismatch check. So, I would like to register sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() into white list. In addition, ia64's .machvec section is function table of some platform dependent code. It is mixture of .init.text and normal text. These reference of __init functions are valid too.

2007-05-07blackfin architectureBryan Wu2-2/+4
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561 (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP, BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards. The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean, orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single instruction-set architecture. The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete documentation, including "getting started" guides available at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for bfin-linux-uclibc This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution, uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/ We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can be found at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel [m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl: balance parenthesis in blackfin header files] Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Mariusz Kozlowski <m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl> Signed-off-by: Aubrey Li <aubrey.li@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Jie Zhang <jie.zhang@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-05-02kbuild: propagate errors from find in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.shMichael Ellerman1-1/+1
If the find(1) in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh generates any errors, it will cause gen_initramfs_list.sh to fail (because of "set -e"), however the errors from find are not printed to the user. This is rather confusing: ~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/ make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1 make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[1]: *** wait: No child processes. Stop. make: *** [_all] Error 2 It is much easier to work out what the problem is if we let the errors from find hit the console, eg: ~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/ find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/home: Permission denied find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/lost+found: Permission denied find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/opt: Permission denied find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/root: Permission denied make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1 make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[1]: *** wait: No child processes.

If the user has created a compressed cpio by other means, this saves him from uncompressing it, just to be compressed again by kbuild.
