2010-08-06kconfig: fix make oldconfigSam Ravnborg
Linus wrote: This seems to make "make oldconfig" a _lot_ more verbose than it used to be. In a very annoying way. I just did a quick git bisect. It's introduced by commit 4062f1a4c030 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") by Sam Ravnborg. Apparently that thing is totally buggy, and doesn't just change the option names, but actively breaks them. The old behaviour (from years ago) were reintroduced by accident. Fix this so we are back to the version that are silent if there is nothing to ask about.

2010-08-06Fix init ordering of /dev/console vs callers of modprobeDavid Howells
Make /dev/console get initialised before any initialisation routine that invokes modprobe because if modprobe fails, it's going to want to open /dev/console, presumably to write an error message to. The problem with that is that if the /dev/console driver is not yet initialised, the chardev handler will call request_module() to invoke modprobe, which will fail, because we never compile /dev/console as a module. This will lead to a modprobe loop, showing the following in the kernel log: request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 This can happen, for example, when the built in md5 module can't find the built in cryptomgr module (because the latter fails to initialise). The md5 module comes before the call to tty_init(), presumably because 'crypto' comes before 'drivers' alphabetically. Fix this by calling tty_init() from chrdev_init().

2010-08-06KEYS: request_key() should return -ENOKEY if the constructed key is negativeDavid Howells
request_key() should return -ENOKEY if the key it constructs has been negatively instantiated. Without this, request_key() can return an unusable key to its caller, and if the caller then does key_validate() that won't catch the problem.

2010-08-05docbook: use IDs as filenames to support multiple booksJohannes Berg
I'm trying to generate a <set> of <book>s in docbook for wireless to link together all the cfg80211 and mac80211 documentation. However, docbook will generate "re01.html" anew for each book for the first <refentry>, presumably due to a bug in the stylesheets. An effective workaround is to use IDs for the filenames, which makes them more descriptive as well, e.g. API-enum-ieee80211-band.html.

In systems with more than one processor it is desirable to look at the per cpu trace buffers. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> CC: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>
2010-08-05ftrace,kdb: Extend kdb to be able to dump the ftrace bufferJason Wessel
Add in a helper function to allow the kdb shell to dump the ftrace buffer. Modify trace.c to expose the capability to iterate over the ftrace buffer in a read only capacity.

2010-08-05kgdb,powerpc: Replace hardcoded offset by BREAK_INSTR_SIZEMichal Simek
kgdb_handle_breakpoint checks the first arch_kgdb_breakpoint which is not known by gdb that's why is necessary jump over it. The jump lenght is equal to BREAK_INSTR_SIZE that's why is cleaner to use defined macro instead of hardcoded non-described offset.

Now that ARM implements the notify die handlers, add the ability for the kernel debugger to receive the notifications. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> CC: Russell King <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> CC: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org
2010-08-05gdbstub: do not directly use dbg_reg_def[] in gdb_cmd_reg_set()Jason Wessel
Presently the usable registers definitions on x86 are not contiguous for kgdb. The x86 kgdb uses a case statement for the sparse register accesses. The array which defines the registers (dbg_reg_def) should not be used directly in order to safely work with sparse register definitions. Specifically there was a problem when gdb accesses ORIG_AX, which is accessed only through the case statement. This patch encodes register memory using the size information provided from the debugger which avoids the need to look up the size of the register. The dbg_set_reg() function always further validates the inputs from the debugger. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Dongdong Deng <dongdong.deng@windriver.com>
2010-08-05gdbstub: Implement gdbserial 'p' and 'P' packetsJason Wessel
The gdbserial 'p' and 'P' packets allow gdb to individually get and set registers instead of querying for all the available registers. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
