* tracing/function-graph-tracer: add a new .irqentry.text sectionFrederic Weisbecker2008-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: let the function-graph-tracer be aware of the irq entrypoints Add a new .irqentry.text section to store the irq entrypoints functions inside the same section. This way, the tracer will be able to signal an interrupts triggering on output by recognizing these entrypoints. Also, make this section recordable for dynamic tracing.

| * kernel-doc: handle varargs cleanlyRandy Dunlap2008-12-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The method for listing varargs in kernel-doc notation is: * @...: these arguments are printed by the @fmt argument but scripts/kernel-doc is confused: it always lists varargs as: ... variable arguments and ignores the @...: line's description, but then prints that line after the list of function parameters as though it's not part of the function parameters. This patch makes kernel-doc print the supplied @... description if it is present; otherwise a boilerplate "variable arguments" is printed.

| * Fix incompatibility with versions of Perl less than 5.6.0Jeremy Huntwork2008-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix headers_install.pl and headers_check.pl to be compatible with versions of Perl less than 5.6.0. It has been tested with Perl 5.005_03 and 5.8.8. I realize this may not be an issue for most people, but there will still be some that hit it, I imagine. There are three basic issues: 1. Prior to 5.6.0 open() only used 2 arguments, and the versions of the scripts in 2.6.27.1 use 3. 2. 5.6.0 also introduced the ability to use uninitialized scalar variables as file handles, which the current scripts make use of. 3. Lastly, 5.6.0 also introduced the pragma 'use warnings'. We can use the -w switch and be backwards compatible.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | setlocalversion used to use an abbreviated git commit sha1 to generate the tag. This was changed in commit d882421f4e08ddf0a94245cdbe516db260aa6f41 "kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format" to use git describe to come up with a tag. Which is nice, but git describe sometimes can't describe the revision. Commit 56b2f0706d82535fd8d85503f2dcc0be40c8e55d ("setlocalversion: do not describe if there is nothing to describe") addressed this, but there is still no tag generated.

Breakage had been introduced when conf_set_all_new_symbols() got used for allmodconfig et.al. What happens is that sym_calc_value(modules_sym) done in conf_read_simple() sets SYMBOL_VALID on both modules_sym and MODULES. When we get to conf_set_all_new_symbols(), we set sym->def[S_DEF_USER] on everything, but it has no effect on sym->curr for the symbols that already have SYMBOL_VALID - these are stuck. Solution: use sym_clear_all_valid() in there. Note that it makes reevaluation of modules_sym redundant - sym_clear_all_valid() will do that itself.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize what is going on at which time. In addition, with the fastboot asynchronous initcall level, it's very valuable to see which initcall gets run where and when. This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall (so that the script can work out the parallelism).

| * ftrace: remove warning of old objcopy and local functionsSteven Rostedt2008-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The warning messages about old objcopy and local functions spam the user quite drastically. Remove the warning until we can find a nicer way of tell the user to upgrade their objcopy.

| * ftrace: objcopy version test for local symbolsSteven Rostedt2008-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The --globalize-symbols option came out in objcopy version 2.17. If the kernel is being compiled on a system with a lower version of objcopy, then we can not use the globalize / localize trick to link to symbols pointing to local functions. This patch tests the version of objcopy and will only use the trick if the version is greater than or equal to 2.17. Otherwise, if an object has only local functions within a section, it will give a nice warning and recommend the user to upgrade their objcopy. Leaving the symbols unrecorded is not that big of a deal, since the mcount record method changes the actual mcount code to be a simple "ret" without recording registers or anything.

| * ftrace: handle weak symbol functionsSteven Rostedt2008-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During tests and checks, I've discovered that there were failures to convert mcount callers into nops. Looking deeper into these failures, code that was attempted to be changed was not an mcount caller. The current code only updates if the code being changed is what it expects, but I still investigate any time there is a failure. What was happening is that a weak symbol was being used as a reference for other mcount callers. That weak symbol was also referenced elsewhere so the offsets were using the strong symbol and not the function symbol that it was referenced from. This patch changes the setting up of the mcount_loc section to search for a global function that is not weak. It will pick a local over a weak but if only a weak is found in a section, a warning is printed and the mcount location is not recorded (just to be safe).
