This should make it stop immediately after printing the _helpful_ error

less obvious.Now I get this...

This reverts commit f892b7d480eec809a5dfbd6e65742b3f3155e50e, which
totally broke the build on x86 with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE (which, as far as
I can tell, is the only case where it should even matter!) due to a
SIGSEGV in modpost.Cc: Sam Ravnborg

modpost had two cases hardcoded for mm/
Shift over to __init_refok and kill the
hardcoded function names in modpost.This has the drawback that the functions
will always be kept no matter configuration.
With previous code the function were placed in
init section if configuration allowed it.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

Kill a special case in modpost by introducing the
__init_refok marker.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
-
Throughout the kernel there are a few legitimite references
to init or exit sections. Most of these are covered by the
patterns included in modpost but a few nees special attention.
To avoid hardcoding a lot of function names in modpost introduce
a marker so relevant function/data can be marked.
When modpost see a reference to a init/exit function from
a function/data marked no warning will be issued.Idea from: Andrew Morton

On i386, ARM and MIPS, warn_sec_mismatch() sometimes fails to show

apply_relocate() routine in kernel code.Without this patch:

Since the devices may have multiple (or none) compatible properties,
the uevent generated internally by the kernel may have multiple
"C..." entries. So the MODALIAS stored in the module must have
wilcard before and after the compatible entry.
Also, if the 'compatible' field is not used for matching, there
will be no 'C' and that must handled as well.The previous code handled all those case incorrectly and it
"mostly" worked ... but not always.Signed-off-by: Sylvain Munaut

In a different approach here's a patch that handles the special case of
composite arithmetic expressions in array size initializers. With it,
prior to pushing the split strings on the @first_arg array, I split the
keywords before the array name as before and then keep the array name along
with the subscript expression as a single whole element which gets pushed
last. In this manner, kernel-doc produces correct output without removing
whitespaces which makes the array subscripts unreadable in the docs.Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov

This patch is add white list into modpost.c for some functions and
ia64's section to fix section mismatchs.sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() calls bootmem allocator
at boot time, and kmalloc/vmalloc at hotplug time. If config
memory hotplug is on, there are references of bootmem allocater(init text)
from them (normal text). This is cause of section mismatch.Bootmem is called by many functions and it must be
used only at boot time. I think __init of them should keep for
section mismatch check. So, I would like to register sparse_index_alloc()
and zone_wait_table_init() into white list.In addition, ia64's .machvec section is function table of some platform
dependent code. It is mixture of .init.text and normal text. These
reference of __init functions are valid too.Signed-off-by: Yasunori Goto

This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards.The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdfThe Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibcThis patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can

build scripts: fixdep blows segfault on string CONFIG_MODULE seen
The string "CONFIG_MODULE" appearing anywhere in a source file causes
fixdep to segfault. This string appeared in the wild in the current

If the find(1) in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh generates any errors, it
will cause gen_initramfs_list.sh to fail (because of "set -e"), however
the errors from find are not printed to the user. This is rather confusing:~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** wait: No child processes. Stop.
make: *** [_all] Error 2It is much easier to work out what the problem is if we let the errors

I'm currently using CROSS_COMPILE="ccache arm-linux-". With that the bash
builtin command "type" searches for ccache and arm-linux-mkimage and so sets
MKIMAGE="/path/to/ccache" as I don't have arm-linux-mkimage. Then the script
dies with an error, that ccache doesn't support the argument -A.This patch adds some quoting such that it works again for me.
