2013-11-13kernel-doc: improve "no structured comments found" errorJohannes Berg2-5/+15
When using '!Ffile function' in a docbook template, and the function no longer exists, you get a "no structured comments found" error from the kernel-doc processing script. It's useful to know which functions it was looking for, so print them out in this case. Also do the same for '!Pfile doc-section' The same error also happens when using '!Efile' when some exported functions aren't documented (in the same file.) There's a very large number of such functions though, so don't print the message in this case -- right now it would give ~850 messages.

2013-11-13initramfs: read CONFIG_RD_ variables for initramfs compressionP J P1-6/+18
When expert configuration option(CONFIG_EXPERT) is enabled, menuconfig offers a choice of compression algorithm to compress initial ramfs image; This choice is stored into CONFIG_RD_* variables. But usr/Makefile uses earlier INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_* macros to build initial ramfs file. Since none of them is defined, resulting 'initramfs_data.cpio' file remains un-compressed. This patch updates the Makefile to use CONFIG_RD_* variables and adds support for LZ4 compression algorithm. Also updates the 'gen_initramfs_list.sh' script to check whether a selected compression command is accessible or not. And fall-back to default gzip(1) compression when it is not.

2013-11-13checkpatch: add check for sscanf without return useJoe Perches1-0/+17
Naked use sscanf can be troublesome because the pointed to variables may not have been set. Add a warning when the sscanf return value is not used. For now, do not add __must_check to the sscanf prototype because that will cause a couple of hundred new warnings when compiling a kernel.

2013-11-13checkpatch: make the memory barrier test noisierJoe Perches1-2/+2
Peter Zijlstra prefers that comments be required near uses of memory barriers. Change the message level for memory barrier uses from a --strict test only to a normal WARN so it's always emitted. This might produce false positives around insertions of memory barriers when a comment is outside the patch context block. And checkpatch is still stupid, it only looks for existence of any comment, not at the comment content.

Otherwise, [] ignore it." So, if checking a patch, scan the original patched file if it's available and add any preexisting CamelCase types so reuses do not generate CamelCase messages.

2013-09-12checkpatch: add test for positional misuse of section specifiers like __initdataJoe Perches1-1/+46
As discussed recently on the arm [1] and lm-sensors [2] lists, it is possible to use section markers on variables in a way which gcc doesn't understand (or at least not the way the developer intended): static struct __initdata samsung_pll_clock exynos4_plls[nr_plls] = { does NOT put exynos4_plls in the .initdata section. The __initdata marker can be virtually anywhere on the line, EXCEPT right after "struct". The preferred location is before the "=" sign if there is one, or before the trailing ";" otherwise.

2013-09-12checkpatch: reduce runtime/cpu time usedJoe Perches1-1/+3
There are some cases where checkpatch can take a long time to complete. Reduce the likelihood of this long run-time by adding a new test for lines with and without comments and eliminating checks on lines with only comments. This reduces the number of "ctx_statement_block" calls, and also the number of tests of $stat, which is now undefined for these blank lines. One test in particular, the "check for switch/default statements without a break", could take an extremely long time to parse as it tries to skip interleaving comments within the ctx_statement_block/$stat and that could be done multiple times unnecessarily. A small test case taken from cfg80211.h before this patch would take 1000's of seconds to run, now it's just a couple seconds.

It was erroring out on fairly random lines most commonly with messages like: Nested quantifiers in regex; marked by <--HERE in m/(\((?:[^\(\)]++ <-- HERE |(?-1))*\))/ at ./checkpatch.pl line 340. The bug reporter was running a version of perl 5.8 which was end-of-lifed in 2008: http://www.cpan.org/src/. Versions of perl this old are at _best_ quite untested. At worst, they are crusty and known to be completely broken. If folks have a system _that_ old, then we should have mercy on them and give them a half-decent error message rather than fail with nutty error messages. This patch enforces that checkpatch.pl is run with perl 5.10, which was end-of-lifed in 2009. The new --ignore-perl-version command-line switch will let folks override this if they want.

2013-09-05kconfig: do not allow more than one symbol to have 'option modules'Yann E. MORIN1-0/+6
Previously, it was possible to have more than one symbol with the 'option modules' attached to them, although only the last one would in fact control tristates. Since this does not make much sense, only allow at most one symbol to control tristates. Note: it is still possible to have more than one symbol that control tristates, but indirectly: config MOD1 bool "mod1" select MODULES config MOD2 bool "mod2" select MODULES config MODULES bool option modules Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

2013-09-05kconfig: do not special-case 'MODULES' symbolYann E. MORIN2-13/+3
Currently, the 'MODULES' symbol is hard-coded to be the default symbol that enables/disables tristates, if no other symbol was declared with 'option modules'. While this used to be needed for the Linux kernel, we now have an explicit 'option modules' attached to the 'MODULES' symbol (since cset 11097a036), so we no longer need to special-case it in the kconfig code. Furthermore, kconfig is extensively used out of the Linux kernel, and other projects may have another meaning for a symbol named 'MODULES'. This patch changes the way we enable/disable tristates: if a symbol was found with 'option modules' attached to it, then that symbol controls enabling tristates. Otherwise, tristates are disabled, even if a symbol named 'MODULES' exists. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

2013-08-26kbuild: Add MIPS specific files to generated package.Stuart Longland1-0/+21
A lot of 64-bit systems supported by Linux/MIPS have boot firmware or bootloaders that only understand 32-bit ELF files, and as such, the vmlinux.32 target exists to support these systems. Therefore, it'd be nice if the tar-pkg target recognised this, and included the right version when packaging up a binary of the kernel. This updates buildtar to support MIPS targets. MIPS may use 'vmlinux' or 'vmlinux.32' depending on the target system. This uses 'vmlinux.32' in preference to 'vmlinux' where present (although I should check which is newer), including either file as /boot/vmlinux-${version}.

2013-08-16kconfig: silence warning when parsing auto.conf when a symbol has changed typeYann E. MORIN1-3/+8
When a symbol changes type from tristate to bool, and was previously set to 'm', a subsequent silentoldconfig would warn about inconsistency, such as: include/config/auto.conf:3014:warning: symbol value 'm' invalid for HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE Seen by Linus with the merge in aa8032b (sequence to reproduce by Michal): git checkout 1fe0135 make mrproper make allmodconfig make silentoldconfig git checkout aa8032b make allmodconfig make silentoldconfig Since HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE changed from tristate to bool in aa8032b, it was previously set to 'm' in auto.conf by the first allmodconfig+silentoldconfig, but then was set to 'y' by the second allmodconfig. Then the second silentoldconfig prints the warning. The warning in this case is a spurious warning, which happens at the time kconfig tries to detect symbols that have changed, to touch the empty header files in include/config used for dependency-tracking by make. Silence the warning when we read the old auto.conf file, since it is perfectly legit that a symbol changed type since the previous call.

2013-08-16scripts/config: use sed's POSIX interfaceClement Chauplannaz1-3/+41
Script `config' relies on extensions of `GNU sed', and is thus not working on all Unixes: - in-place edition of files (-i), which can be replaced with a temporary file; - extended-regexps (-r), which can be split into basic regexps; - single-line calls to `a' command, while some implementations require a leading newline before the parameter. Rewrite calls to `sed' to comply with POSIX interface, and move them to helper functions. Signed-off-by: Clement Chauplannaz <chauplac@gmail.com> Tested-by: "Yann E.
