  • c51d3dac3   [PATCH] kernel-doc: use Members for struct fields consistently ... Browse Code »

    kernel-doc struct fields should be consistently called "Members", not
    "Arguments", so switch man-mode output to use "Members" like all of the
    other formats do.

    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.

  • 850622dfa   [PATCH] kernel-doc: warn on malformed function docs. ... Browse Code »

    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.

  • 8ad2914d9   [PATCH] checkstack: print module names ... Browse Code »

    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.

  • 05189497d   [PATCH] kernel-doc: drop leading space in sections ... Browse Code »

    Drop leading space of kernel-doc section contents.

    "Section" data (contents) are split from the section header
    (e.g., Note: below is a section header:
    * Note: list_empty on entry does not return true after this, the entry is
    * in an undefined state.
    ).

    Currently the data/contents begins with a space and is left that way, which
    causes it to look bad when printed (in text mode; see example below), so
    just remove the leading space.

    Note:

    list_empty on entry does not return true after this, the entry is in an
    undefined state.

    Here is an updated r_info layout fix. Please apply "check SHT_REL
    sections" patch before this.

    64bit mips has different r_info layout. This patch fixes modpost
    segfault for 64bit little endian mips kernel.

  • 2c1a51f39   [PATCH] kbuild: check SHT_REL sections ... Browse Code »

    I found that modpost can not detect section mismatch on mips and i386. On
    mips64, the modpost (with r_info layout fix) can detect it. The current
    modpst only checks SHT_RELA section but I suppose SHT_REL section should be
    checked also. This patch does not contain r_info layout fix. I'll post an
    updated r_info layout fix on next mail.

    Check SHT_REL sections as like as SHT_RELA sections to detect section
    mismatch.

    Change the conditional of the outputmakefile rule to be evaluated entirely
    in make, and add a conditional to not touch the generated makefile when e.g.
    running 'make install' as root while the build was done as non-root. Also
    adjust the comment describing this, and move the message printing and
    redirection to mkmakefile.

    kbuild: fix false section mismatch warnings

  • 5ecdd0f67   kbuild: fix false section mismatch warnings ... Browse Code »

    Darren Jenkins 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 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 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.

    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).

    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.

  • 4bdc3b7f1   [PATCH] x86_64: Basic reorder infrastructure ... Browse Code »

    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.
