But it is always print out the first aliased symbol.(Aliased symbols are symbols with the same address), and the first aliased symbol is sometime not proper. # echo function_graph > current_tracer # cat trace ...... 1) 1.923 us | select_nohz_load_balancer(); 1) + 76.692 us | } 1) | default_idle() { 1) ==========> | __irqentry_text_start() { 1) 0.000 us | native_apic_mem_write(); 1) | irq_enter() { 1) 0.000 us | idle_cpu(); 1) | tick_check_idle() { 1) 0.000 us | tick_check_oneshot_broadcast(); 1) | tick_nohz_stop_idle() { ...... It's very embarrassing, it ouputs "__irqentry_text_start()", actually, it should output "smp_apic_timer_interrupt()". (these two symbol are the same address, but "__irqentry_text_start" is deemed to the first aliased symbol by scripts/kallsyms) This patch puts symbols like "__irqentry_text_start" to the second aliased symbols. And a more proper symbol name becomes the first. Aliased symbols mostly come from linker script. The solution is guessing "is this symbol defined in linker script", the symbols defined in linker script will not become the first aliased symbol. And if symbols are found to be equal in this "linker script provided" criteria, symbols are sorted by the number of prefix underscores.

Sometimes, the make might do something abnormal. In the case of running the recordmcount.pl script on an object twice, the script will duplicate all the calls to mcount in the __mcount_loc section. On boot up, the dynamic function tracer is careful when it modifies code, and performs several consistency checks. One is to not modify the call site if it is not what it expects it to be. If a function call site is listed twice, the first entry will convert the site to a nop, and the second will fail because it expected to see a call to mcount, but instead it sees a nop. Thus, the function tracer is disabled. Eric Sesterhenn reported seeing: [ 1.055440] ftrace: converting mcount calls to 0f 1f 44 00 00 [ 1.055568] ftrace: allocating 29418 entries in 116 pages [ 1.061000] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 1.061000] WARNING: at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:441 [...] [ 1.060000] ---[ end trace 4eaa2a86a8e2da23 ]--- [ 1.060000] ftrace failed to modify [<c0118072>] check_corruption+0x3/0x2d [ 1.060000] actual: 0f:1f:44:00:00 This warning shows that check_corruption+0x3 already had a nop in its place (0x0f1f440000). After compiling another kernel the problem went away. Later Eric Paris notice the same type of issue. Luckily, he saved the vmlinux file that caused it. In the file we found a bunch of duplicate mcount call site records, which lead us to the script. Perhaps this problem only happens to people named Eric. This patch changes the script to test if the __mcount_loc already exists in the object file, and if it does, it will print out an error message and kill the compile.

So we rename 'struct_module' to 'module_layout' and include these in the signature. Now it's general we can add others later on without confusion. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

In that case, the built-in initramfs will be compressed by whatever compressor is available (bzip2 or lzma) or left uncompressed if none is available. It also removes a couple of warnings which occur when no ramdisk compression at all is chosen. It also restores the select ZLIB_INFLATE in drivers/block/Kconfig which somehow came missing.

Both compressors give smaller sizes than gzip. Lzma's decompresses faster than bzip2. It also supports ramdisks and initramfs' compressed using these two compressors. The functionality has been successfully used for a couple of years by the udpcast project This version applies to "tip" kernel 2.6.28 This part contains: - changed inflate.c to accomodate rest of patch - implementation of bzip2 compression (not used at this stage yet) - implementation of lzma compression (not used at this stage yet) - Makefile routines to support bzip2 and lzma kernel compression Signed-off-by: Alain Knaff <alain@knaff.lu> Signed-off-by: H.

GDT entry 28 is used for it. It's set to point to stack_canary-20 and have the length of 24 bytes. CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR turns off CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and sets %gs to the stack canary segment on entry. As %gs is otherwise unused by the kernel, the canary can be anywhere. It's defined as a percpu variable. x86_32 exception handlers take register frame on stack directly as struct pt_regs. With -fstack-protector turned on, gcc copies the whole structure after the stack canary and (of course) doesn't copy back on return thus losing all changed. For now, -fno-stack-protector is added to all files which contain those functions. We definitely need something better.

The output can be controlled by function, file, module, format string, and line number. for example, enabled all debug messages in module 'nf_conntrack': echo -n 'module nf_conntrack +p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control to disable them: echo -n 'module nf_conntrack -p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control A further explanation can be found in the documentation patch.

However, silicon IPs for these SoCs are usually shared heavily across a family of processors, even products from different companies. This makes the original simple driver name based matching insufficient, or simply not straight-forward. Introduce a module id table for platform devices, and makes it clear that a platform driver is able to support some shared IP and handle slight differences across different platforms (by 'driver_data'). Module alias is handled automatically when a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() is defined. To not disturb the current platform drivers too much, the matched id entry is recorded and can be retrieved by platform_get_device_id().

My Nehalem testbox does randconfig much faster than 1 second and i have a few scripts that do 'randconfig until condition X' loops. Those scripts currently waste a lot of CPU time due to randconfig changing its seed only once per second currently. Change the seed to be micrseconds based. (I checked the statistical spread of the seed - the now.tv_sec*now.tv_usec multiplication there further improves it.)

With the following patch we: - properly randomize choice value for normal choice blocks - properly randomize for multi choice blocks - added several comments to explain what is going on The root cause of the bug was that SYMBOL_VALID was set on the symbol representing the choice block so clearing this did the trick initially.

This is due to KERNELRELEASE being different when the initial make is run and when make is run from rpmbuild. mkspec creates kernel.spec using KERNELRELEASE: <mkspec> echo "%files" echo '%defattr (-, root, root)' echo "%dir /lib/modules" echo "/lib/modules/$KERNELRELEASE" echo "/lib/firmware" echo "/boot/*" echo "" </mkspec> When CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y scripts/setlocalversion is called and grabs any additional version info from SCM. Next, the srctree is tarred up and SCM information is excluded. rpmbuild reruns make and in the process generates a new include/config/kernel.release and thus a new KERNELRELEASE. However this time the SCM information is gone so KERNELRELEASE no longer has the additional version information. When "make modules_install" runs, it uses the new KERNELRELEASE value to determine where to install the modules. This conflicts with where the spec file assumes they are going because of the mis-matching KERNELRELEASE versions. <snippet> + INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root + make -j16 modules_install INSTALL crypto/aead.ko INSTALL crypto/cbc.ko INSTALL crypto/chainiv.ko INSTALL crypto/crc32c.ko INSTALL crypto/crypto_algapi.ko INSTALL crypto/crypto_blkcipher.ko INSTALL crypto/crypto_hash.ko INSTALL crypto/cryptomgr.ko INSTALL crypto/ecb.ko INSTALL crypto/eseqiv.ko INSTALL crypto/krng.ko INSTALL crypto/md5.ko INSTALL crypto/pcbc.ko INSTALL crypto/rng.ko INSTALL drivers/block/cciss.ko INSTALL drivers/hid/hid-dummy.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/iscsi_tcp.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/libiscsi.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/libiscsi_tcp.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/scsi_wait_scan.ko INSTALL fs/lockd/lockd.ko INSTALL fs/nfs/nfs.ko INSTALL fs/nfsd/nfsd.ko INSTALL lib/libcrc32c.ko INSTALL net/sunrpc/sunrpc.ko DEPMOD 2.6.29-rc4-tip + cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 + cp System.map /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/System.map-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 + cp .config /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/config-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 + cp vmlinux vmlinux.orig + bzip2 -9 vmlinux + mv vmlinux.bz2 /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/vmlinux-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422.bz2 + mv vmlinux.orig vmlinux + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress Processing files: kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-2 error: File not found: /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/lib/modules/2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 RPM build errors: File not found: /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/lib/modules/2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 make[1]: *** [rpm] Error 1 make: *** [rpm] Error 2 </snippet> I have tested this patch on git -tip, Linus' git tree, and the kernel.org tar files, both with and without CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y.
