* kbuild: add verbose option to Section mismatch reporting in modpostSam Ravnborg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the config option CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH is not set and we see a Section mismatch present the following to the user: modpost: Found 1 section mismatch(es). To see additional details select "Enable full Section mismatch analysis" in the Kernel Hacking menu (CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH). If the option CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH is selected then be verbose in the Section mismatch reporting from mdopost. Sample outputs: WARNING: o-x86_64/vmlinux.o(.text+0x7396): Section mismatch in reference from the function discover_ebda() to the variable .init.data:ebda_addr The function discover_ebda() references the variable __initdata ebda_addr. This is often because discover_ebda lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of ebda_addr is wrong. WARNING: o-x86_64/vmlinux.o(.data+0x74d58): Section mismatch in reference from the variable pci_serial_quirks to the function .devexit.text:pci_plx9050_exit() The variable pci_serial_quirks references the function __devexit pci_plx9050_exit() If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __exit* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: o-x86_64/vmlinux.o(__ksymtab+0x630): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __ksymtab_arch_register_cpu to the function .cpuinit.text:arch_register_cpu() The symbol arch_register_cpu is exported and annotated __cpuinit Fix this by removing the __cpuinit annotation of arch_register_cpu or drop the export.

* kconfig: tristate choices with mixed tristate and boolean valuesJan Beulich2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change kconfig behavior so that mixing bool and tristate config settings in a choice is possible and has the desired effect of offering just the tristate options individually if the choice gets set to M, and a normal boolean selection if the choice gets set to Y. Also fix scripts/kconfig/conf's handling of children of choice values - there may be more than one immediate child, and all of them need to be processed.

* Use separate sections for __dev/__cpu/__mem code/dataSam Ravnborg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introducing separate sections for __dev* (HOTPLUG), __cpu* (HOTPLUG_CPU) and __mem* (MEMORY_HOTPLUG) allows us to do a much more reliable Section mismatch check in modpost. We are no longer dependent on the actual configuration of for example HOTPLUG. This has the effect that all users see much more Section mismatch warnings than before because they were almost all hidden when HOTPLUG was enabled. The advantage of this is that when building a piece of code then it is much more likely that the Section mismatch errors are spotted and the warnings will be felt less random of nature.

| | | | | | | | | | | This patch consolidate all definitions of .init.text, .init.data and .exit.text, .exit.data section definitions in the generic vmlinux.lds.h. This is a preparational patch - alone it does not buy us much good. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
* kbuild: check section names consistently in modpostSam Ravnborg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | Now that match() is introduced use it consistently so we can share the section name definitions. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
* kbuild: introduce blacklisting in modpostSam Ravnborg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the logic in modpost so we identify all the bad combinations of sections that refer to other sections. Compared to the previous approach we are much less dependent on knowledge of what additional sections the tool chain uses and thus we can keep the false positives low. The implmentation is changed to use a table based lookup and we now check all combinations in first pass so we no longer need separate passes for init and exit sections. Tested that the same warnings are generated for an allyesconfig build without CONFIG_HOTPLUG.

* kbuild: code refactoring in modpostSam Ravnborg2008-01-28

* kbuild: try harder to find symbol names in modpostSam Ravnborg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The relocation record sometimes contained an address which was not an exactly match for a symbol. Implment some simple logic such that if there is a symbol within 20 bytes of the address contained in the relocation record then print the name of this symbol. With this change modpost could find symbol names for the remaining .init.text symbols in my allyesconfig build for x86_64. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kconfig is powerfull tool. So powerfull that more and more software projects are using it for configuration. So instead of fixing some of them one by one, lets fix it in kernel and wait for sync. This work was originaly done for PTXdist - GPL licensed build system for userlands and cross-compilers, but it will not hurt kernel kconfig either. PTXdist menuconfig now works on Windows linked with PDCurses and compiled using MinGW - there is no termios and signals. * Do not include <sys/wait.h> and <signal.h> (comes from times when lxdialog was separate process) * Do not mess with termios directly and let curses tell screen size.
