module,bug: Add TAINT_OOT_MODULE flag for modules not built in-tree

2011-11-06T21:24:42Z

Use of the GPL or a compatible licence doesn't necessarily make the code any good. We already consider staging modules to be suspect, and this should also be true for out-of-tree modules which may receive very little review.

Staging: hv: file2alias: fix up alias creation logic for hv_vmbus_device_id

2011-08-25T18:28:11Z

When I added the driver_data field to hv_vmbus_device_id, I forgot to take into the account how the alias was created, so it would append the kernel pointer to the end of the alias, which is not correct. This changes how the hv_vmbus_device_id alias is created to proper account for the driver_data field. As no module yet uses this alias, it is safe to fix this up at this point in the commit stream.

modpost: Fix modpost's license checking V3

2011-07-24T12:36:05Z

The commit f02e8a6 sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section. The sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker. Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux (already linked) and all modules object files (which aren't linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks modpost that can't detect license properly for modules. This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure. Thanks to Arnaud Lacombe and Anders Kaseorg for providing useful suggestions about code. This work was supported by a hardware donation from the CE Linux Forum.

modpost: Update 64k section support for binutils 2.18.50

2011-05-19T07:25:28Z

Binutils 2.18.50 made a backwards-incompatible change in the way it writes ELF objects with over 65280 sections, to improve conformance with the ELF specification and interoperability with other ELF tools. Specifically, it no longer adds 256 to section indices SHN_LORESERVE and higher to skip over the reserved range SHN_LORESERVE through SHN_HIRESERVE; those values are only considered special in the st_shndx field, and not in other places where section indices are stored.

bcma: add Broadcom specific AMBA bus driver

2011-05-10T19:54:54Z

Broadcom has released cards based on a new AMBA-based bus type. From a programming point of view, this new bus type differs from AMBA and does not use AMBA common registers. It also differs enough from SSB. We decided that a new bus driver is needed to keep the code clean. In its current form, the driver detects devices present on the bus and registers them in the system. It allows registering BCMA drivers for specified bus devices and provides them basic operations. The bus driver itself includes two important bus managing drivers: ChipCommon core driver and PCI(c) core driver. They are early used to allow correct initialization. Currently code is limited to supporting buses on PCI(e) devices, however the driver is designed to be used also on other hosts. The host abstraction layer is implemented and already used for PCI(e). Support for PCI(e) hosts is working and seems to be stable (access to 80211 core was tested successfully on a few devices). We can still optimize it by using some fixed windows, but this can be done later without affecting any external code. Windows are just ranges in MMIO used for accessing cores on the bus.
