| * Basic implementation of 'make headers_check'David Woodhouse2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on the 'headers_install' target, this performs a basic sanity check on the exported headers -- so far only checking that they do not include any other headers which aren't selected for import, but easily extendable.

| * Basic implementation of 'make headers_install'David Woodhouse2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a make target which exports a subset of headers which contain definitions which are useful for system libraries and tools. It uses the BSD 'unifdef' tool to remove instances of #ifdef __KERNEL__, and uses sed to remove markers like __user.

* | kbuild: introduce utsrelease.hSam Ravnborg2006-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | include/linux/version.h contained both actual KERNEL version and UTS_RELEASE that contains a subset from git SHA1 for when kernel was compiled as part of a git repository. This had the unfortunate side-effect that all files including version.h would be recompiled when some git changes was made due to changes SHA1. Split it out so we keep independent parts in separate files. Also update checkversion.pl script to no longer check for UTS_RELEASE. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

| * | kbuild: fix ia64 breakage after introducing make -rRSam Ravnborg2006-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kbuild used $ยค(*F to get filename of target without extension. This was used in several places all over kbuild, but introducing make -rR broke his for all cases where we specified full path to target/prerequsite. It is assumed that make -rR disables old style suffix-rules which is why is suddenly failed. ia64 was impacted by this change because several div* routines in arch/ia64/lib are build using explicit paths and then kbuild failed. Thanks to David Mosberger-Tang <David.Mosberger@acm.org> for an explanation what was the root-cause and for testing on ia64. This patch also fixes two uses of $(*F) in arch/um Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

This allows to trace modversion changes back to what caused them. The dump format is the name of the type defined, followed by its definition (which is almost C): s#list_head struct list_head { s#list_head * next , * prev ; } The s#, u#, e#, and t# prefixes stand for struct, union, enum, and typedef. The exported symbols do not define types, and thus do not have an x# prefix: nfs4_acl_get_whotype int nfs4_acl_get_whotype ( char * , t#u32 ) The symbol type defintion of a single file can be generated with: make fs/jbd/journal.symtypes If KBUILD_SYMTYPES is defined, all the *.symtypes of all object files that export symbols are generated. The single *.symtypes files can be combined into a single file after a kernel build with a script like the following: for f in $(find -name '*.symtypes' | sort); do f=${f#./} echo "/* ${f%.symtypes}.o */" cat $f echo done \ | sed -e '\:UNKNOWN:d' \ -e 's:[,;] }:}:g' \ -e 's:\([[({]\) :\1:g' \ -e 's: \([])},;]\):\1:g' \ -e 's: $::' \ $f \ | awk ' /^.#/ { if (defined[$1] == $0) { print $1 next } defined[$1] = $0 } { print } ' When the kernel ABI changes, diffing individual *.symtype files, or the combined files, against each other will show which symbol changes caused the ABI changes.

| * | kbuild: add option for stripping modules while installing themTheodore Ts'o2006-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add option for stripping modules while installing them. This function adds support for stripping modules while they are being installed. CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL (which will probably become more popular as developers use kdump) causes the size of the installed modules to grow by a factor of 9 or so. Some kernel package systems solve this problem by stripping the debug information from /lib/modules after running "make modules_install", but that may not work for people who are installing directly into /lib/modules --- root partitions that were sized to handle 16 megs worth of modules may not be quite so happy with 145 megs of modules, so the "make modules_install" never succeeds. This patch allows such users to request modules_install to strip the modules as they are installed. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

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 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 false section mismatch with ARCH=um buildSam Ravnborg2006-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ignoring references to .init.text, .exit.text from the .plt section brought the false positives down to two warnings for a defconfig build of ARCH=um on x86_64. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add ".smp_locks" section to whitelist as being safe from init and exit sections. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
| * | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For kernel-doc output modes of text and man, do not use XML escapes for less-than, greater-than, and ampersand characters. I.e., leave the text and man output clean and readable.

* | [PATCH] kernel-doc: warn on malformed function docs.Randy Dunlap2006-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the verbose (-v) option is used with scripts/kernel-doc, this option reports when the kernel-doc format is malformed and apparently contains function description lines before function parameters. In these cases, the kernel-doc script will print something like: Warning(filemap.c:335): contents before sections I have fixed the problems in mm/filemap.c and added lots of kernel-doc to that file (posted to the linux-mm mailing list Mon. 2006-June-12). The real goal (as requested by Andrew Morton) is to allow the short function description to be more than one line long. This patch is both a kernel-doc checker and a tool en route to that goal.

* | [PATCH] checkstack: print module namesRandy Dunlap2006-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Finding "init_module" high stack usage problems is challenging when there are over 1600 "init_module" functions in the kernel tree, so make checkstack.pl print out the filename where the stack usage occurs. This is useful for code built as loadable modules. For built-in code, it just prints the kernel image file name, like "vmlinux". Examples: (before patch:) 0x0000000d callback: 1928 0xffffffff81678c09 huft_build: 1560 0x0018 init_module: 1512 (after patch:) 0x0000000d callback [divacapi]: 1928 0xffffffff81678c09 huft_build [vmlinux]: 1560 0x0018 init_module [hdaps]: 1512 Also change one if-series to use elsif to cut down on unneeded tests.
