2010-08-09checkpatch: fix extraneous EXPORT_SYMBOL* warningsPatrick Pannuto
These are caused by checkpatch incorrectly parsing its internal representation of a statement block for struct's (or anything else that is a statement block encapsulated in {}'s that also ends with a ';'). Fix this by properly parsing a statement block. An example: +struct dummy_type dummy = { + .foo = "baz", +}; +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy); + +static int dummy_func(void) +{ + return -EDUMMYCODE; +} +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy_func); WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately \ follow its function/variable #19: FILE: dummy.c:4: +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy); The above warning is issued when it should not be.

As explained in Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt, msleep's of < 20ms may sleep for as long as 20ms.

Make error message say 'ERROR: do not initialise globals to 0 or NULL' rather than 'ERROR: do not initialise externals to 0 or NULL'. Makes more sense in the context since there is an extern keyword in C and that is a global declaration within the scope of the current file.

I've got a false positive when spaces are present at the beginning of a line. So I add this check, obviously excluding to check the lines in the middle of comments. For instance this code passes the checkpatch test: +struct davinci_mcbsp_data { + unsigned int fmt; + int clk_div; +}; + +static struct davinci_mcbsp_data mcbsp_data; Where, before the string "int clk_div", I have 4 spaces (\040 ascii character).

2010-08-06kconfig: fix make oldconfigSam Ravnborg
Linus wrote: This seems to make "make oldconfig" a _lot_ more verbose than it used to be. In a very annoying way. I just did a quick git bisect. It's introduced by commit 4062f1a4c030 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") by Sam Ravnborg. Apparently that thing is totally buggy, and doesn't just change the option names, but actively breaks them. The old behaviour (from years ago) were reintroduced by accident. Fix this so we are back to the version that are silent if there is nothing to ask about.

2010-08-03kconfig: add savedefconfigSam Ravnborg
savedefconfig will save a minimal config to a file named "defconfig". The config symbols are saved in the same order as they appear in the menu structure so it should be possible to map them to the relevant menus if desired. The implementation was tested against several minimal configs for arm which was created using brute-force. There was one regression related to default numbers which had their valid range further limited by another symbol. Sample: config FOO int "foo" default 4 config BAR int "bar" range 0 FOO If FOO is set to 3 then BAR cannot take a value higher than 3. But the current implementation will set BAR equal to 4. This is seldomly used and the final configuration is OK, and the fix was non-trivial. So it was documented in the code and left as is.

2010-07-29kconfig: fix MODULES-related bug in case of no .configUlf Magnusson
There seems to be a kconfig bug due to MODULES not always being evaluated if no .config is found. Take the following Kconfig as an example: config MODULES def_bool y config FOO def_tristate m With no .config, the following configuration is generated: CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_FOO=y With an empty .config, the following: CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_FOO=m Tristate choice statements can also exhibit the problem, due to having an implicit rev_dep (select) containing "m". The problem is that MODULES is never evaluted in conf_read_simple() unless there's a .config. The following patch fixes this.

2010-07-22tracing: Fix $mcount_regex for MIPS in recordmcount.plDavid Daney
I found this issue in a locally patched 2.6.32.x, current kernels have moved the offending code to an __init function which is skipped by recordmcount.pl, so the bug is not currently being exercised. However, I think the patch is still a good idea, to avoid future problems if _mcount were to ever have its address taken in normal code. This is what I originally saw: Although arch/mips/kernel/ftrace.c is built without -pg, and thus contains no calls to _mcount, it does use the address of _mcount in ftrace_make_nop(). This was causing relocations to be emitted for _mcount which recordmcount.pl erronously took to be _mcount call sites. The result was that the text of ftrace_make_nop() would be patched with garbage leading to a system crash. In non-module code, all _mcount call sites will have R_MIPS_26 relocations, so we restrict $mcount_regex to only match on these.

2010-07-20kbuild: Make the setlocalversion script POSIX-compliantMichał Górny
The 'source' builtin is a bash alias to the '.' (dot) builtin. While the former is supported only by bash, the latter is specified in POSIX and works fine with all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of. The '$_' special parameter is specific to bash. It is partially supported in dash too but it always evaluates to the current script path (which causes the script to enter a loop recursively re-executing itself). This is why I have replaced the two occurences of '$_' with the explicit parameter. The 'local' builtin is another example of bash-specific code. Although it is supported by all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of, it is not part of POSIX specification and thus the code should not rely on it assigning a specific value to the local variable. Moreover, the 'posh' shell has a limited version of 'local' builtin not supporting direct variable assignments. Thus, I have broken one of the 'local' declarations down into a (non-POSIX) 'local' declaration and a plain (POSIX-compliant) variable assignment.

2010-07-08kconfig: Don't write invisible choice valuesJan Beulich
This makes it so "make oldconfig" really prompts for any choice where options that previously weren't visible just became so. Previously one would have to remember to go over all choice values and check whether some that previously couldn't be selected now can be.

2010-07-02kbuild: Warn on selecting symbols with unmet direct dependenciesCatalin Marinas
The "select" statement in Kconfig files allows the enabling of options even if they have unmet direct dependencies (i.e. "depends on" expands to "no"). Currently, the "depends on" clauses are used in calculating the visibility but they do not affect the reverse dependencies in any way. The patch introduces additional tracking of the "depends on" statements and prints a warning on selecting an option if its direct dependencies are not met.

2010-06-28Add support for the C variable in the coccicheck scriptNicolas Palix
This patch makes it possible to use the Coccinelle checker with the C variable of the build system. To check only newly edited code, the following command may be used: 'make C={1,2} CHECK="scripts/coccicheck"' This runs every semantic patch in scripts/coccinelle by default. The COCCI variable may additionally be used to only apply a single semantic patch.

2010-06-25Add wait4() back to the set of <asm-generic/unistd.h> syscalls.Chris Metcalf
The initial pass at the generic ABI assumed that wait4() could be easily expressed using waitid(). Although it's true that wait4() can be built on waitid(), it's awkward enough that it makes more sense to continue to include wait4 in the generic syscall ABI. Since there is already a deprecated wait4 in the ABI, this change converts that wait4 into old_wait, and puts wait4 in the next available slot for new supported syscalls, after the platform-specific syscalls at number 260.
