2014-12-10checkpatch: allow certain SI units with three charactersJulius Werner
Checkpatch flags CamelCase identifiers in strict mode, but it has a feature to ignore parts with only two characters to allow for SI units like mV or uA. Unfortunately, not all SI units fit in two characters, and not all are lower case followed by upper case. This patch adds hardcoded detection for frequency and 1024-based size units (Hz/KHz/MHz/GHz/THz and KiB/MiB/GiB/TiB), since allowing any three character combinations might be too lenient. The list can later be expanded as needed.

2014-12-10scripts/kernel-doc: don't eat struct members with __alignedJohannes Berg

2014-11-08checkkconfigsymbols.py: improve detection of defectsValentin Rothberg
This patch improves the detection of defects by updating the regular expression to find Kconfig identifiers in the source code, and fixes some cases of false positives.

2014-11-07checkkconfigsymbols.sh: reimplementation in pythonValentin Rothberg
The scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.sh script searches Kconfig features in the source code that are not defined in Kconfig. Such identifiers always evaluate to false and are the source of various kinds of bugs. However, the shell script is slow and it does not detect such broken references in Kbuild and Kconfig files (e.g., ``depends on UNDEFINED´´). Furthermore, it generates false positives. The script is also hard to read and understand, and is thereby difficult to maintain. This patch replaces the shell script with an implementation in Python, which: (a) detects the same bugs, but does not report previous false positives (b) additionally detects broken references in Kconfig and all non-Kconfig files, such as Kbuild, .[cSh], .txt, .sh, defconfig, etc. (c) is up to 75 times faster than the shell script (d) only checks files under version control The new script reduces the runtime on my machine (i7-2620M, 8GB RAM, SSD) from 3m47s to 0m3s, and reports 938 broken references in Linux v3.17-rc1; 419 additional reports of which 16 are located in Kconfig files, 287 in defconfigs, 63 in ./Documentation, 1 in Kbuild. Moreover, we intentionally include references in comments, which have been ignored until now. Such comments may be leftovers of features that have been removed or renamed in Kconfig (e.g., ``#endif /* CONFIG_MPC52xx */´´). These references can be misleading and should be removed or replaced. Note that the output format changed from (file list <tab> feature) to (feature <tab> file list) as it simplifies the detection of the Kconfig feature for long file lists.

2014-10-27s390/ftrace,kprobes: allow to patch first instructionHeiko Carstens
If the function tracer is enabled, allow to set kprobes on the first instruction of a function (which is the function trace caller): If no kprobe is set handling of enabling and disabling function tracing of a function simply patches the first instruction. Either it is a nop (right now it's an unconditional branch, which skips the mcount block), or it's a branch to the ftrace_caller() function. If a kprobe is being placed on a function tracer calling instruction we encode if we actually have a nop or branch in the remaining bytes after the breakpoint instruction (illegal opcode). This is possible, since the size of the instruction used for the nop and branch is six bytes, while the size of the breakpoint is only two bytes. Therefore the first two bytes contain the illegal opcode and the last four bytes contain either "0" for nop or "1" for branch. The kprobes code will then execute/simulate the correct instruction. Instruction patching for kprobes and function tracer is always done with stop_machine(). Therefore we don't have any races where an instruction is patched concurrently on a different cpu. Besides that also the program check handler which executes the function trace caller instruction won't be executed concurrently to any stop_machine() execution. This allows to keep full fault based kprobes handling which generates correct pt_regs contents automatically.

2014-10-21dts, kbuild: Implement support for dtb vendor subdirsRobert Richter
This patch adds support of vendor sub directories for dtb files. Subdirectories can be specified in $(dts-dirs). Kbuild traverses over all directories while building and installing dtb files. The directory tree is also reflected in the install path. Tested-by: Andrew Bresticker <abrestic@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <rrichter@cavium.com>
2014-10-21dts, kbuild: Factor out dtbs install rules to Makefile.dtbinstRobert Richter
Move dtbs install rules to Makefile.dtbinst. This change is needed to implement support for dts vendor subdirs. The change makes Makefiles easier and smaller as no longer the dtbs_install rule needs to be defined. Another advantage is that install goals are not encoded in targets anymore (%.dtb_dtbinst_).

Uprobes is enabled and the ftrace code is reworked to get some of the lost performance back if CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled. - To improve boot time with CONFIG_DEBIG_PAGEALLOC, support for the IPTE range facility is added. - The rwlock code is re-factored to improve writer fairness and to be able to use the interlocked-access instructions. - The kernel part for the support of the vector extension is added. - The device driver to access the CD/DVD on the HMC is added, this will hopefully come in handy to improve the installation process. - Add support for control-unit initiated reconfiguration. - The crypto device driver is enhanced to enable the additional AP domains and to allow the new crypto hardware to be used. - Bug fixes" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux: (39 commits) s390/ftrace: simplify enabling/disabling of ftrace_graph_caller s390/ftrace: remove 31 bit ftrace support s390/kdump: add support for vector extension s390/disassembler: add vector instructions s390: add support for vector extension s390/zcrypt: Toleration of new crypto hardware s390/idle: consolidate idle functions and definitions s390/nohz: use a per-cpu flag for arch_needs_cpu s390/vtime: do not reset idle data on CPU hotplug s390/dasd: add support for control unit initiated reconfiguration s390/dasd: fix infinite loop during format s390/mm: make use of ipte range facility s390/setup: correct 4-level kernel page table detection s390/topology: call set_sched_topology early s390/uprobes: architecture backend for uprobes s390/uprobes: common library for kprobes and uprobes s390/rwlock: use the interlocked-access facility 1 instructions s390/rwlock: improve writer fairness s390/rwlock: remove interrupt-enabling rwlock variant. s390/mm: remove change bit override support ...

2014-10-14checkpatch: look for common misspellingsKees Cook
Check for misspellings, based on Debian's lintian list. Several false positives were removed, and several additional words added that were common in the kernel: backword backwords invalide valide recieves singed unsinged While going back and fixing existing spelling mistakes isn't a high priority, it'd be nice to try to catch them before they hit the tree. In the 13830 commits between 3.15 and 3.16, the script would have noticed 560 spelling mistakes.

2014-10-14checkpatch: warn on macros with flow control statementsJoe Perches
Macros with flow control statements (goto and return) are not very nice to read as any flow movement is unexpected. Try to highlight them and emit a warning on their definition. Avoid warning on macros that use argument concatenation as those macros commonly create another function where the concatenation is used in the function name definition like: #define FOO_FUNC(name, rtn_type) \ rtn_type func##name(arg1, ...) \ { \ rtn_type rtn; \ [code...] \ return rtn; \ } Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
