* kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add additional options to CCSam Ravnborg2007-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour. On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to pass in additional flags to gcc. This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the tree and enabling one to use: make CFLAGS=... to specify additional gcc commandline options. One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other use cases has been requested too. Patch was tested on following architectures: alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check that nothing got rebuild.

* kconfig/menuconfig: distinguish between selected-by-another options and commentsMatej Laitl2007-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | menuconfig currently represents options implied by another option ('select' directive in Kconfig) by prefixing them with '---'. Unfortunately the same notation is used for comments. If the implied option is module capable, user can still switch between Y and M, all without any feedback until she visits option's help. (try saying M to MAC80211 and then toggling CFG80211) This patch changes notation of selected-by-another items by introducing 2 new representations for implied options: {*} or {M} for options selected by another modularized one, thus builtin or module capable, -*- or -M- for options that cannot be at the moment changed by user. The idea is to represent actual capability of the option by braces (dashes) around and to always report actual state by * or M inside.

| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* kbuild: call make once for all targets when O=.. is usedMilton Miller2007-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the invocations of make in the output directory Makefile and the main Makefile for separate object trees to pass all goals to one $(MAKE) via a new phony target "sub-make" and the existing target _all. When compiling with separate object directories, a separate make is called in the context of another directory (from the output directory the main Makefile is called, the Makefile is then restarted with current directory set to the object tree). Before this patch, when multiple make command goals are specified, each target results in a separate make invocation. With make -j, these invocations may run in parallel, resulting in multiple commands running in the same directory clobbering each others results. I did not try to address make -j for mixed dot-config and no-dot-config targets. Because the order does matter, a solution was not obvious. Perhaps a simple check for MAKEFLAGS having -j and refusing to run would be appropriate. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

* kbuild: scripts/ver_linux : correct printing of binutils versionJesper Juhl2007-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently scripts/ver_linux prints "Binutils" or other random information for the version number in the "binutils" output line on some distributions. This patch corrects that. When I initially submitted a patch to correct that, I was not aware that the output from "ld -v" could differ as much as it turned out it can, so my original fix turned out to not cover all bases. This patch works correctly with all the different "ld -v" output that people posted in replys to my first patch, so it should be a clear win over what we have currently.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To avoid having to look manually for used but undefined Kconfig variables, I've written a script which tries do this efficiently, in case all other attention fail. It accounts for _MODULE suffix and for UML_ prefixes to Kconfig variable, but otherwise looks for exact matches (i.e. \<CONFIG_; this is done to exclude macros like MMCONFIG_). Undefined Kconfig variables should be not be removed without care, but for instance arch/i386/boot/ uses a bunch of undefined Kconfig vars: $ scripts/checkunknowndefines.sh arch/i386/boot/ arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_400_HACK arch/i386/boot/video-vga.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_400_HACK arch/i386/boot/video.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_RETAIN arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_RETAIN arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_SVGA arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_VESA arch/i386/boot/video-vesa.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_VESA It should also be mentioned in SubmittingPatches and SubmitChecklist.

| * [NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=nPavel Emelyanov2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section, thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before. Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot. Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes" for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS is not set to save more space in memory. The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section, as noticed by David, since the init section will have references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already done with the __init_refok.

* kbuild: fix modpost warnings for xtensaSam Ravnborg2007-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Xtensa architecture places literal pools in sections separate from the instructions. The corresponsing text sections, therefore, reference the .literal section, and we have to suppress those warnings. The naming convention defines the name for a literal section as .SECTION.literal, unless .SECTION is .text. In that case the name is only .literal. Using strncmp() instead of strcmp() to compare the from-section with .SECTION.init.refok in pattern 0 should not cause any regressions for other architectures. We also need to suppress warnings for two informational sections (.xt.lit and .xt.prop) used by the Xtensa architecture.

This fixes the problem of LDFLAGS_BUILD_ID getting into too many places. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

This patch does this and at the same time introduce a few API funtions used to access the help text. The relevant api functions are introduced in the various frontends.

* kbuild: fix up printing of Linux C Library version in scripts/ver_linuxJesper Juhl2007-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed, when running scripts/ver_linux on both a Gentoo system and a Slackware system, that the line printing the C library version looked a little odd. So I fixed it up to be in line with all the rest. Old output: Linux C Library > libc.2.5 New output: Linux C Library 2.5 Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
* kbuild: do not do section mismatch checks on vmlinux in 2nd passSam Ravnborg2007-07-25
| | | | | | | | We already check and warn about section mismatches from vmlinux (build as vmlinux.o) during first pass so skip the checks during the 2nd pass where we process modules. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
* ACPI: autoload modules - Create ACPI alias interfaceThomas Renninger2007-07-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify modpost (file2alias.c) to add acpi*:XYZ0001: alias in modules.alias like: grep acpi /lib/modules/2.6.22-rc4-default/modules.alias alias acpi*:SNY5001:* sony_laptop alias acpi*:SNY6001:* sony_laptop for e.g. the sony_laptop module. This module matches against all ACPI devices with a HID or CID of SNY5001 or SNY6001 Export an uevent and modalias sysfs file containing the string: [MODALIAS=]acpi:PNP0C0C: additional CIDs are concatenated at the end.

* Fix Lindent to not indent preprocessor comments so farMatthew Wilcox2007-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I recently ran Lindent over the AdvanSys driver and it moved the comments on #else and #endif lines way over to the right: #else /* ADVANSYS_DEBUG */ This doesn't match what I expect from kernel style, but it is documented. We just need another flag to indent to make this look like: #else /* ADVANSYS_DEBUG */ Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| * kallsyms: remove usage of memmem and _GNU_SOURCE from scripts/kallsyms.cPaulo Marques2007-07-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only in-kernel user of "memmem" is scripts/kallsyms.c and it only uses it to find tokens that are 2 bytes in size. It is trivial to replace it with a simple function that finds 2-byte tokens. This should help users from systems that don't have the memmem GNU extension available.
