| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Darren Jenkins <darrenrjenkins@gmail.com> pointed out a number of false positives where we referenced variables from a _driver variable. Fix it by check for that pattern and ignore it. Randy.Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> pointed out a similar set of warnings for a number of scsi drivers. In scsi world they misname their variables *_template or *_sht so add these to list of variables that may have references to .init.text with no warning. Randy.Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> also pointed out a scsi driver with many references to .exit.text from .rodata. This is compiler generated references and we already ignore these for .init.text, so ignore them for .exit.text also. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
| * | [PATCH] Enhancing accessibility of lxdialogSamuel Thibault2006-04-14
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For easily getting fairly good accessibility, the TTY cursor should always be left at the focus location. This patch fixes the checklist by just having the list refreshed after the dialog box (hence the cursor position remains in the list).

| * kbuild: rebuild initramfs if content of initramfs changesSam Ravnborg2006-04-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | initramfs.cpio.gz being build in usr/ and included in the kernel was not rebuild when the included files changed. To fix this the following was done: - let gen_initramfs.sh generate a list of files and directories included in the initramfs - gen_initramfs generate the gzipped cpio archive so we could simplify the kbuild file (Makefile) - utilising the kbuild infrastructure so when uid/gid root mapping changes the initramfs will be rebuild With this change we have a much more robust initramfs generation.

| * kbuild: properly pass options to hostcc when doing make O=..Sam Ravnborg2006-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fix a longstanding bug where proper options was not passed to hostcc in case of a make O=.. build. This bug showed up in (not yet merged) klibc, and is not known to have any counterpart in-kernel. Fixed by moving the flags macro to Kbuild.include so it can be used by both Makefile.lib and Makefile.host. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

* [PATCH] x86_64: Basic reorder infrastructureArjan van de Ven2006-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch puts the infrastructure in place to allow for a reordering of functions based inside the vmlinux. The general idea is that it is possible to put all "common" functions into the first 2Mb of the code, so that they are covered by one TLB entry. This as opposed to the current situation where a typical vmlinux covers about 3.5Mb (on x86-64) and thus 2 TLB entries. This is done by enabling the -ffunction-sections flag in gcc, which puts each function in its own ELF section, so that the linker can then order them in a way defined by the linker script. As per previous discussions, Linus said he wanted a "static" list for this, eg a list provided by the kernel tarbal, so that most people have the same ordering at least. A script is provided to create this list based on readprofile(1) output. The included list is provisional, and entirely biased on my own testbox and me running a few kernel compiles and some other things. I think that to get to a better list we need to invite people to submit their own profiles, and somehow add those all up and base the final list on that. I'm willing to do that effort if this is ends up being the prefered approach. Such an effort probably needs to be repeated like once a year or so to adopt to the changing nature of the kernel. Made it a CONFIG with default n because it increases link times dramatically. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| * kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behaviorPaul Smith2006-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make. Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time, even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make. For more details on the incorrect behavior, see: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html Changes in this patch: - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY. - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly. - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether targets are up-to-date or not.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Building an allmodconfig kernel for ppc64 revealed a number of false positives - originally reported by Andrew Morton. This patch removes most if not all false positives for ppc64: Section .opd The .opd section contains function descriptors at least for ppc64. So ignore it for .init.text (was ignored for .exit.text). See description of function descriptors here: http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/ELF/ppc64/PPC-elf64abi-1.7.html Section .toc1 ppc64 places some static variables in .toc1 - ignore the. Section __bug_tabe BUG() and friends uses __bug_table. Ignore warnings from that section.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'allnoconfig' is described by 'make help' as a "minimal config", that's not strictly correct. To be pedantic, a minimal config would be one where EMBEDDED was set to Y and most things therein disabled etc. Simply answering 'no' to all options does not give a minimal config. A better description of allnoconfig is that it answers all options with 'no'. This patch updates the description.

| * kbuild: check for section mismatch during modpost stageSam Ravnborg2006-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Section mismatch is identified as references to .init* sections from non .init sections. And likewise references to .exit.* sections outside .exit sections. .init.* sections are discarded after a module is initialized and references to .init.* sections are oops candidates. .exit.* sections are discarded when a module is built-in and thus references to .exit are also oops candidates. The checks were possible to do using 'make buildcheck' which called the two perl scripts: reference_discarded.pl and reference_init.pl. This patch just moves the same functionality inside modpost and the scripts are then obsoleted. They will though be kept for a while so users can do double checks - but note that some .o files are skipped by the perl scripts so result is not 1:1. All credit for the concept goes to Keith Owens who implemented the original perl scrips - this patch just moves it to modpost. Compared to the perl script the implmentation in modpost will be run for each kernel build - thus catching the error much sooner, but the downside is that the individual .o file are not always identified.
