linux/scripts/mod, branch v3.9

Merge branch 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild

2013-02-27T20:25:47Z

Pull kbuild changes from Michal Marek: - Alias generation in modpost is cross-compile safe. - kernel/timeconst.h is now generated using a bc script instead of perl. - scripts/link-vmlinux.sh now works with an alternative $KCONFIG_CONFIG. - destination-y for exported headers is supported in Kbuild files again. - depmod is called with -P $CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX on architectures that need it. - CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED disables var-tracking - scripts/setlocalversion works with too much translated locales ;) * 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: kbuild: Fix reading of .config in link-vmlinux.sh kbuild: Unset language specific variables in setlocalversion script Kbuild: Disable var tracking with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED depmod: pass -P $CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX kbuild: Fix destination-y for installed headers scripts/link-vmlinux.sh: source variables from KCONFIG_CONFIG kernel: Replace timeconst.pl with a bc script mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling

mod/file2alias: make modalias generation safe for cross compiling

2013-01-24T21:48:04Z

Use the target compiler to compute the offsets for the fields of the device_id structures, so that it won't be broken by different alignments between the host and target ABIs. This also fixes missing endian corrections for some modaliases. Signed-off-by: Andreas Schwab Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

modpost: Ignore ARC specific non-alloc sections

2013-01-21T06:49:14Z

ARC relocatable object files contain one/more .gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.* sections (collated by kernel/vmlinux.lds into .arcextmap in final link). This section is used by debuggers to display the extension instructions and need-not be loaded by target (hence !SHF_ALLOC) The final kernel binary only needs .arcextmap entry in modpost's ignore list (section_white_list[]). However when building modules, modpost scans each object file individually, hence tripping on non-aggregated .gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.* entries as well. Thus need for the 2 entires !

modpost.c: Stop checking __dev* section mismatches

2012-11-30T20:08:42Z

Now that the __dev* sections are not being generated, we don't need to check for them in modpost.c. Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Pull kbuild changes from Michal Marek: "The main part of kbuild for v3.7 contains: - Fix for scripts/Makefile.modpost to not choke on a '.ko' substring in the build directory path - Two warning fixes (modpost and main Makefile) - __compiletime_error works also with gcc 4.3 - make tar{gz,bz2,xz}-pkg uses default compression settings instead of saving as many bytes as possible (this should actually be in the misc branch, I don't know why I applied it here)." * 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: compiler-gcc4.h: correct verion check for __compiletime_error modpost: Permit .GCC.command.line sections Kbuild: use normal compression settings for tar*-pkg scripts/Makefile.modpost: error in finding modules from .mod files. kbuild: Remove useless warning while appending KCFLAGS

modpost: Permit .GCC.command.line sections

2012-10-11T20:36:15Z

Allow .GCC.command.line sections in modules to prevent modpost warnings: WARNING: sound/usb/snd-usbmidi-lib.o (.GCC.command.line): unexpected non-allocatable section. Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file? Note that for example contains section definitions for use in .S files. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Kliegman Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

Merge tag 'xtensa-next-20121008' of git://github.com/czankel/xtensa-linux

2012-10-09T07:11:46Z

Pull Xtensa patchset from Chris Zankel: "The Xtensa tree has been broken for some time now, and this patchset brings it back to life. It has been part of the linux-next tree for some time. Most changes are inside the xtensa subdirectory; the other changes mostly add another rule to already existing #ifdefs to exclude Xtensa, where required. The only 'common' change is to add two more sections ('.xt.prop' and '.xt.lit') to the white list in modpost." * tag 'xtensa-next-20121008' of git://github.com/czankel/xtensa-linux: (27 commits) xtensa: Setup CROSS_COMPILE at the top xtensa: drop CONFIG_EMBEDDED_RAMDISK xtensa: fix TIOCGSERIAL and TIOCSSERIAL definitions xtensa: provide dummy gcc intrinsics xtensa: add missing symbol exports parport: disable for xtensa arch xtensa: rename MISC SR definition to avoid name clashes hisax: disable build for big-endian xtensa xtensa: fix CODA build xtensa: fix parallel make xtensa: ISS: drop unused io.c xtensa: ISS: exit simulator in case of halt or poweroff xtensa: ISS: change keyboard polling rate xtensa: ISS: add platform_pcibios_init xtensa: ISS: add dummy serial.h for ISS platform xtensa: change default platform clock frequency to 10MHz xtensa: add ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB to xtensa config xtensa: set NO_IOPORT to 'n' by default xtensa: adopt generic io routines xtensa: fix ioremap ...

staging/ipack: Fix bug introduced by IPack device matching

2012-09-07T15:27:34Z

~0 can not be casted to u8. Instead of using the IPACK_ANY_ID for the format field we introduce a new IPACK_ANY_FORMAT specifically for that field and defined as 0xff. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: Jens Taprogge Acked-by: Samuel Iglesias Gonsálvez Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Staging: ipack: implement ipack device table.

2012-09-04T21:43:26Z

The modaliases look like ipack:fXvNdM, where X is the format version (8 bit) and N and M are the vendor and device ID represented as 32 bit hexadecimal numbers each. Using 32 bits allows us to define IPACK_ANY_ID as (~0) without interfering with the valid ids. The resulting modalias string for ipoctal.ko looks like this (once ipoctal provides a device table): alias: ipack:f01v000000F0d00000048* alias: ipack:f01v000000F0d0000002A* alias: ipack:f01v000000F0d00000022* (output from modinfo) Signed-off-by: Jens Taprogge Signed-off-by: Samuel Iglesias Gonsálvez Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
