| * kbuild: fix mkmakefileJan Beulich2006-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the current way of generating the Makefile in the output directory for builds outside of the source tree, specifying real targets (rather than phony ones) doesn't work in an already (partially) built tree, as the stub Makefile doesn't have any dependency information available. Thus, all targets where files may actually exist must be listed explicitly and, due to what I'd call a make misbehavior, directory targets must then also be special cased.

| * kbuild: consolidate command line escapingJan Beulich2006-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While the recent change to also escape # symbols when storing C-file compilation command lines was helpful, it should be in effect for all command lines, as much as the dollar escaping should be in effect for C-source compilation commands. Additionally, for better readability and maintenance, consolidating all the escaping (single quotes, dollars, and now sharps) was also desirable.

| * kbuild: make cc-version available in kbuild filesSam Ravnborg2006-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move $(CC) support functions to Kbuild.include so they are available in the kbuild files. In addition the following was done: o as-option documented in Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt o Moved documentation to new section to match new scope of functions o added cc-ifversion used to conditionally select a text string dependent on actual $(CC) version o documented cc-ifversion o change so Kbuild.include is read before the kbuild file Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
| * 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.

| * kbuild: improved modversioning support for external modulesSam Ravnborg2006-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With following patch a second option is enabled to obtain symbol information from a second external module when a external module is build. The recommended approach is to use a common kbuild file but that may be impractical in certain cases. With this patch one can copy over a Module.symvers from one external module to make symbols (and symbol versions) available for another external module.

| * kconfig: fix /dev/null breakageSam Ravnborg2006-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While running "make menuconfig" and "make mrproper" some people experienced that /dev/null suddenly changed permissions or suddenly became a regular file. The main reason was that /dev/null was used as output to gcc in the check-lxdialog.sh script and gcc did some strange things with the output file; in this case /dev/null when it errorred out. Following patch implements a suggestion from Bryan O'Sullivan <bos@serpentine.com> to use gcc -print-file-name=libxxx.so. Also the Makefile is adjusted to not resolve value of HOST_EXTRACFLAGS and HOST_LOADLIBES until they are actually used. This prevents us from calling gcc when running make *clean/mrproper Thanks to Eyal Lebedinsky <eyal@eyal.emu.id.au> and Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> for the first error reports.

* kbuild: Use git in scripts/setlocalversionRene Scharfe2006-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently scripts/setlocalversion is a Perl script that tries to figure out the current git commit ID of a repo without using git. It also imports Digest::MD5 without using it and generally is too big for the small task it does. :] And it always reports a git ID, even when the HEAD is tagged -- this is a bug. This patch replaces it with a Bourne Shell script that uses git commands to do the same. I can't come up with a scenario where someone would use a git repo and refuse to install git core at the same time, so I think it's reasonable to assume git is available. The new script also reports uncommitted changes by adding -git_dirty to the version string. Obviously you can't see from that _what_ has been changed from the last commit, so it's more of a reminder that you forgot to commit something. The script is easily extensible: simply add a check for Mercurial (or whatever) below the git check. Note: the script doesn't print a newline char anymore. That's only because it was easier to implement it that way, not a feature (or bug). 'make kernelrelease' doesn't care.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here's the patch for modalias support for input classes. It uses comma-separated numbers, and doesn't describe all the potential keys (no module currently cares, and that would make the strings huge). The changes to input.h are to move the definitions needed by file2alias outside __KERNEL__. I chose not to move those definitions to mod_devicetable.h, because there are so many that it might break compile of something else in the kernel. The rest is fairly straightforward.

To take advantage of this the scripts/genksyms/*_shipped files needs to be rebuild - this is the next patch.

I have compared the Modules.symvers with and without this patch and for ia64's defconfig, the only change is: Before 0x00000000 per_cpu____sn_nodepda vmlinux After 0x9d3f3faa per_cpu____sn_nodepda vmlinux per_cpu____sn_nodepda was the original source of my problems.
