* kbuild: export-symbol usage report generatorRam Pai2006-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch provides the ability to generate a report of (1) All the exported symbols and their in-kernel-module usage count (2) For each module, lists the modules and their exported symbols, on which it depends. the report can be generated by executing: perl scripts/export_report The tool warns if the modules are not build using MODVERSIONING.

* kbuild: append git revision for all untagged commitsUwe Zeisberger2006-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | adds revision suffix for untagged commits that are reachable from a tag I'm bisecting and don't get the -g...... suffix. The reason is, that git name-rev --tags HEAD returns e.g. HEAD tags/v2.6.17-rc1^0~1067 which is currently good enough for setlocalversion to skip the suffix. This introduces a dependecy to grep -E, which should be fine.

* kbuild: ignore make's built-in rules & variablesSam Ravnborg2006-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | kbuild does explicitly specify what to do in all cases, and each time make's built-in rules & variables has been used it has been a bug. So to speed up things and to avoid the hard-to-debug error situations ignore the built-in definitions. If any part of the kernel uses the built-in definitions the build will just stop there and it should be trivial to fix. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

* kbuild: check license compatibility when building modulesSam Ravnborg2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modules that uses GPL symbols can no longer be build with kbuild, the build will fail during the modpost step. When a GPL-incompatible module uses a EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE symbol then warn during modpost so author are actually notified. The actual license compatibility check is shared with the kernel to make sure it is in sync.

* kbuild: add dependency on kernel.release to the package targetsZach Brown2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The binrpm-pkg target uses KERNELRELEASE when generated its .spec file. When binrpm-pkg was the first build target run in a tree it generated the .spec before kernel.release so the Version: tag in the .spec was empty. I don't know if this is the best fix, but binrpm-pkg works when we explicitly build kernel.release before descending into package-dir.

| | | | | | | | | | | This moves the .kernelrelease file into include/config directory.

* kconfig: integrate split config into silentoldconfigRoman Zippel2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that kconfig can load multiple configurations, it becomes simple to integrate the split config step, by simply comparing the new .config file with the old auto.conf (and then saving the new auto.conf). A nice side effect is that this saves a bit of disk space and cache, as no data needs to be read from or saved into the splitted config files anymore (e.g. include/config is now 648KB instead of 5.2MB).

* kconfig: fix .config dependenciesRoman Zippel2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes one of the worst kbuild warts left - the broken dependencies used to check and regenerate the .config file. This was done via an indirect dependency and the .config itself had an empty command, which can cause make not to reread the changed .config file. Instead of this we generate now a new file include/config/auto.conf from .config, which is used for kbuild and has the proper dependencies. It's also the main make target now for all files generated during this step (and thus replaces include/linux/autoconf.h). This also means we can now relax the syntax requirements for the .config file and we don't have to rewrite it all the time, i.e. silentoldconfig only writes .config now when it's necessary to keep it in sync with the Kconfig files and even this can be suppressed by setting the environment variable KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE, so the update can (and must) be done manually.

* kbuild: fix make rpm for powerpcMike Wolf2006-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | The default target for most powerpc platforms is zImage. The zImage however is in arch/powerpc/boot and the mkspec script was set up to get the kernel from the top level of the kernel tree. This patch copies vmlinux to arch/powerpc/boot and then copies the kernel to the tmp directory so the rpm can be made.

* kbuild: obj-dirs is calculated incorrectly if hostprogs-y is definedPavel Roskin2006-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When Makefile.host is included, $(obj-dirs) is subjected to the addprefix operation for the second time. Prefix only needs to be added to the newly added directories, but not to those that came from Makefile.lib. This causes the build system to create unneeded empty directories in the build tree when building in a separate directory. For instance, lib/lib/zlib_inflate is created in the build tree.

| * [TCP]: Avoid skb_pull if possible when trimming headHerbert Xu ~{PmVHI~}2006-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trimming the head of an skb by calling skb_pull can cause the packet to become unaligned if the length pulled is odd. Since the length is entirely arbitrary for a FIN packet carrying data, this is actually quite common. Unaligned data is not the end of the world, but we should avoid it if it's easily done. In this case it is trivial. Since we're discarding all of the head data it doesn't matter whether we move skb->data forward or back. However, it is still possible to have unaligned skb->data in general. So network drivers should be prepared to handle it instead of crashing. This patch also adds an unlikely marking on len < headlen since partial ACKs on head data are extremely rare in the wild. As the return value of __pskb_trim_head is no longer ever NULL that has been removed. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu ~{PmV>HI~} <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
