2012-10-13localmodconfig: Fix localyesconfig to set to 'y' not 'm'Yuta Ando
commit 4eae518d4b01b0cbf2f0d8edb5a6f3d6245ee8fb upstream. The kbuild target 'localyesconfig' has been same as 'localmodconfig' since the commit 50bce3e "kconfig/streamline_config.pl: merge local{mod,yes}config". The commit expects this script generates different configure depending on target, but it was not yet implemented. So I added code that sets to 'yes' when target is 'localyesconfig'.

2012-10-13kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntaxJean Delvare
commit b1e0d8b70fa31821ebca3965f2ef8619d7c5e316 upstream. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

2012-10-13kbuild: make: fix if_changed when command contains backslashesSascha Hauer
commit c353acba28fb3fa1fd05fd6b85a9fc7938330f9c upstream. The call if_changed mechanism does not work when the command contains backslashes. This basically is an issue with lzo and bzip2 compressed kernels. The compressed binaries do not contain the uncompressed image size, so these use size_append to append the size. This results in backslashes in the executed command. With this if_changed always detects a change in the command and rebuilds the compressed image even if nothing has changed. Fix this by escaping backslashes in make-cmd Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Luebbe <jlu@pengutronix.de> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Bernhard Walle <bernhard@bwalle.de> Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2012-05-18x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs toolH. Peter Anvin
A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'. This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel initialization, these relocation entries can be used to relocate the code properly. In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'. 16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code. Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable data references. They are declared in the linker script of the real-mode code. The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree. [ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently produces bad kernels. ] Signed-off-by: H.

2012-04-18xz: Enable BCJ filters on SPARC and 32-bit x86Lasse Collin
The BCJ filters were meant to be enabled already on these archs, but the xz_wrap.sh script was buggy. Enabling the filters should give smaller kernel images. xz_wrap.sh will now use $SRCARCH instead of $ARCH to detect the architecture. That way it doesn't need to care about the subarchs (like i386 vs. x86_64) since the BCJ filters don't care either.

2012-04-18Fix modpost failures in fedora 17David Miller
The symbol table on x86-64 starts to have entries that have names like: _GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0___mod_x86cpu_device_table They are of type STT_FUNCTION and this one had a length of 18. This matched the device ID validation logic and it barfed because the length did not meet the device type's criteria. -------------------- FATAL: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=18. Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h -------------------- These are some kind of compiler tool internal stuff being emitted and not something we want to inspect in modpost's device ID table validation code.

2012-04-09modpost: Fix modpost license checking of vmlinux.oFrank Rowand
Commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols") sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section. This sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker. Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux.o (which is not linked yet) 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. [ This above is a slightly corrected version of the explanation of the problem, copied from commit 62a2635610db ("modpost: Fix modpost's license checking V3"). That commit fixed the problem for module object files, but not for vmlinux.o.

2012-03-26setlocalversion: Use "grep -q" instead of piping output to "read dummy"Roland Dreier
In some circumstances (eg when running a build in an emacs shell buffer), I get a spew of messages like grep: writing output: Broken pipe from setlocalversion, because the "read" subshell apparently exits as soon as it reads one line and gives EPIPE to grep. It's not clear to me why this way of writing the check was used instead of just using grep -q to suppress output, but unless there is some deep reason I don't know, this way looks cleaner to me anyway, and gets rid of the ugly message spew. (I double checked at http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009604499/utilities/grep.html and "grep -q" is specified in POSIX / SuS, so hopefully even people cross-compiling the kernel on some bizarre host OS can't complain about this change) Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <roland@purestorage.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

2012-03-23checkpatch: catch [ ... ] usage when not at the beginning of definitionAndy Whitcroft
Handle the [ A ... B ] form deeper into a definition, for example: static const unsigned char pci_irq_swizzle[2][PCI_MAX_DEVICES] = { {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 27, 27, [9 ... PCI_MAX_DEVICES - 1] = 0 }, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 29, 29, [9 ... PCI_MAX_DEVICES - 1] = 0 }, }; Reported-by: Marek Vasut <marek.vasut@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-03-23checkpatch.pl: be silent when -q and --ignore is givenArtem Bityutskiy
Fix checkpatch.pl when both -q and --ignore are given and prevents it from printing a NOTE: Ignored message types: blah messages. E.g., if I use -q --ignore PREFER_PACKED,PREFER_ALIGNED, i see: NOTE: Ignored message types: PREFER_ALIGNED PREFER_PACKED It makes no sense to print this when -q is given.

2012-03-23checkpatch: add some --strict coding style checksJoe Perches
Argument alignment across multiple lines should match the open parenthesis. Logical continuations should be at the end of the previous line, not the start of a new line. These are not required by CodingStyle so make the tests active only when using --strict. Improved by some examples from Bruce Allen. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: "Bruce W.
