2016-06-10kernel-doc: do not warn about duplicate default section namesJani Nikula1-2/+5
Since commit 32217761ee9db0215350dfe1ca4e66f312fb8c54 Author: Jani Nikula <[email protected]> Date: Sun May 29 09:40:44 2016 +0300 kernel-doc: concatenate contents of colliding sections we started getting (more) errors on duplicate section names, especially on the default section name "Description": include/net/mac80211.h:3174: warning: duplicate section name 'Description' This is usually caused by a slightly unorthodox placement of parameter descriptions, like in the above case, and kernel-doc resetting back to the default section more than once within a kernel-doc comment. Ignore warnings on the duplicate section name automatically assigned by kernel-doc, and only consider explicitly user assigned duplicate section names an issue.

2016-06-07Add sancov pluginEmese Revfy3-1/+170
The sancov gcc plugin inserts a __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() call at the start of basic blocks. This plugin is a helper plugin for the kcov feature. It supports all gcc versions with plugin support (from gcc-4.5 on). It is based on the gcc commit "Add fuzzing coverage support" by Dmitry Vyukov (https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/gcc?limit_changes=0&view=revision&revision=231296).

2016-06-07Add Cyclomatic complexity GCC pluginEmese Revfy3-0/+75
Add a very simple plugin to demonstrate the GCC plugin infrastructure. This GCC plugin computes the cyclomatic complexity of each function. The complexity M of a function's control flow graph is defined as: M = E - N + 2P where E = the number of edges N = the number of nodes P = the number of connected components (exit nodes).

2016-06-07GCC plugin infrastructureEmese Revfy11-2/+1741
This patch allows to build the whole kernel with GCC plugins. It was ported from grsecurity/PaX. The infrastructure supports building out-of-tree modules and building in a separate directory. Cross-compilation is supported too. Currently the x86, arm, arm64 and uml architectures enable plugins. The directory of the gcc plugins is scripts/gcc-plugins. You can use a file or a directory there. The plugins compile with these options: * -fno-rtti: gcc is compiled with this option so the plugins must use it too * -fno-exceptions: this is inherited from gcc too * -fasynchronous-unwind-tables: this is inherited from gcc too * -ggdb: it is useful for debugging a plugin (better backtrace on internal errors) * -Wno-narrowing: to suppress warnings from gcc headers (ipa-utils.h) * -Wno-unused-variable: to suppress warnings from gcc headers (gcc_version variable, plugin-version.h) The infrastructure introduces a new Makefile target called gcc-plugins. It supports all gcc versions from 4.5 to 6.0. The scripts/gcc-plugin.sh script chooses the proper host compiler (gcc-4.7 can be built by either gcc or g++). This script also checks the availability of the included headers in scripts/gcc-plugins/gcc-common.h. The gcc-common.h header contains frequently included headers for GCC plugins and it has a compatibility layer for the supported gcc versions. The gcc-generate-*-pass.h headers automatically generate the registration structures for GIMPLE, SIMPLE_IPA, IPA and RTL passes. Note that 'make clean' keeps the *.so files (only the distclean or mrproper targets clean all) because they are needed for out-of-tree modules. Based on work created by the PaX Team.

2016-06-04scripts/kernel-doc: Add option to inject line numbersDaniel Vetter1-0/+41
Opt-in since this wreaks the rst output and must be removed by consumers again. This is useful to adjust the linenumbers for included kernel-doc snippets in shinx. With that sphinx error message will be accurate when there's issues with the rst-ness of the kernel-doc comments. Especially when transitioning a new docbook .tmpl to .rst this is extremely useful, since you can just use your editors compilation quickfix list to accurately jump from error to error. v2: - Also make sure that we filter the LINENO for purpose/at declaration start so it only shows for selected blocks, not all of them (Jani). While at it make it a notch more accurate. - Avoid undefined $lineno issues. I tried filtering these out at the callsite, but Jani spotted more when linting the entire kernel. Unamed unions and similar things aren't stored consistently and end up with an undefined line number (but also no kernel-doc text, just the parameter type). Simplify things and filter undefined line numbers in print_lineno() to catch them all. v3: Fix LINENO 0 issue for kernel-doc comments without @param: lines or any other special sections that directly jump to the description after the "name - purpose" line. Only really possible for functions without parameters. Noticed by Jani.

2016-06-03scripts/kernel-doc: Remove duplicated DOC: start handlingDaniel Vetter1-18/+1
Further up in the state machinery we switch from STATE_NAME to STATE_DOCBLOCK when we match /$doc_block/. Which means this block of code here is entirely unreachable, unless there are multiple DOC: sections within a single kernel-doc comment. Getting a list of all the files with more than one DOC: section using $ git grep -c " * DOC:" | grep -v ":1$" and then doing a full audit of them reveals there are no such comment blocks in the kernel. Supporting multiple DOC: sections in a single kernel-doc comment does not seem like a recommended way of doing things anyway, so nuke the code for simplicity.

2016-05-30kernel-doc: reset contents and section harderJani Nikula1-0/+3
If the documentation comment does not have params or sections, the section heading may leak from the previous documentation comment. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]>
2016-05-30kernel-doc: concatenate contents of colliding sectionsJani Nikula1-4/+6
If there are multiple sections with the same section name, the current implementation results in several sections by the same heading, with the content duplicated from the last section to all. Even if there's the error message, a more graceful approach is to combine all the identically named sections into one, with concatenated contents. With the supported sections already limited to select few, there are massively fewer collisions than there used to be, but this is still useful for e.g. when function parameters are documented in the middle of a documentation comment, with description spread out above and below. (This is not a recommended documentation style, but used in the kernel nonetheless.) We can now also demote the error to a warning. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]>
2016-05-30kernel-doc: limit the "section header:" detection to a select fewJani Nikula1-2/+17
kernel-doc currently identifies anything matching "section header:" (specifically a string of word characters and spaces followed by a colon) as a new section in the documentation comment, and renders the section header accordingly. Unfortunately, this turns all uses of colon into sections, mostly unintentionally. Considering the output, erroneously creating sections when not intended is always worse than erroneously not creating sections when intended. For example, a line with "http://example.com" turns into a "http" heading followed by "//example.com" in normal text style, which is quite ugly. OTOH, "WARNING: Beware of the Leopard" is just fine even if "WARNING" does not turn into a heading. It is virtually impossible to change all the kernel-doc comments, either way. The compromise is to pick the most commonly used and depended on section headers (with variants) and accept them as section headers. The accepted section headers are, case insensitive: * description: * context: * return: * returns: Additionally, case sensitive: * @return: All of the above are commonly used in the kernel-doc comments, and will result in worse output if not identified as section headers. Also, kernel-doc already has some special handling for all of them, so there's nothing particularly controversial in adding more special treatment for them. While at it, improve the whitespace handling surrounding section names. Do not consider the whitespace as part of the name. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]>

2016-05-30kernel-doc: strip leading whitespace from continued param descsJani Nikula1-1/+15
If a param description spans multiple lines, check any leading whitespace in the first continuation line, and remove same amount of whitespace from following lines. This allows indentation in the multi-line parameter descriptions for aesthetical reasons while not causing accidentally significant indentation in the rst output.

2016-05-30kernel-doc: improve handling of whitespace on the first line param descriptionJani Nikula1-4/+4
Handle whitespace on the first line of param text as if it was the empty string. There is no need to add the newline in this case. This improves the rst output in particular, where blank lines may be problematic in parameter lists. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]>
2016-05-30kernel-doc/rst: change the output layoutJani Nikula1-17/+17
Move away from field lists, and simply use **strong emphasis** for section headings on lines of their own. Do not use rst section headings, because their nesting depth depends on the surrounding context, which kernel-doc has no knowledge of. Also, they do not need to end up in any table of contexts or indexes. There are two related immediate benefits. Field lists are typically rendered in two columns, while the new style uses the horizontal width better. With no extra indent on the left, there's no need to be as fussy about it. Field lists are more susceptible to indentation problems than the new style. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]>
2016-05-30kernel-doc: strip leading blank lines from inline doc commentsJani Nikula1-0/+4

2016-05-30kernel-doc: support printing exported and non-exported symbolsJani Nikula1-2/+27
Currently we use docproc to figure out which symbols are exported, and then docproc calls kernel-doc on specific functions, to get documentation on exported functions. According to git blame and docproc comments, this is due to historical reasons, as functions and their corresponding EXPORT_SYMBOL* may have been in different files. However for more than ten years the recommendation in CodingStyle has been to place the EXPORT_SYMBOL* immediately after the closing function brace line. Additionally, the kernel-doc comments for functions are generally placed above the function definition in the .c files (i.e. where the EXPORT_SYMBOL* is) rather than above the declaration in the .h files. There are some exceptions to this, but AFAICT none of these are included in DocBook documentation using the "!E" docproc directive. Therefore, assuming the EXPORT_SYMBOL* and kernel-doc are with the function definition, kernel-doc can extract the exported vs. not information by making two passes on the input file. Add support for that via the new -export and -internal parameters. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]>

2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree ParserKieran Bingham3-0/+105
Linux makes use of the Radix Tree data structure to store pointers indexed by integer values. This structure is utilised across many structures in the kernel including the IRQ descriptor tables, and several filesystems. This module provides a method to lookup values from a structure given its head node. Usage: The function lx_radix_tree_lookup, must be given a symbol of type struct radix_tree_root, and an index into that tree. The object returned is a generic integer value, and must be cast correctly to the type based on the storage in the data structure. For example, to print the irq descriptor in the sparse irq_desc_tree at index 18, try the following: (gdb) print (struct irq_desc)$lx_radix_tree_lookup(irq_desc_tree, 18) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/d2028c55e50cf95a9b7f8ca0d11885174b0cc709.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2016-05-23scripts/gdb: cast CPU numbers to integerJan Kiszka1-1/+1
We won't see more than 2 billion CPUs any time soon, and having cpu_list return long makes the output of lx-cpus a bit ugly.

2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add cpu iteratorsKieran Bingham1-0/+38
The linux kernel provides macro's for iterating against values from the cpu_list masks. By providing some commonly used masks, we can mirror the kernels helper macros with easy to use generators.

2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add mount point list commandKieran Bingham2-0/+119
lx-mounts will identify current mount points based on the 'init_task' namespace by default, as we do not yet have a kernel thread list implementation to select the current running thread. Optionally, a user can specify a PID to list from that process' namespace Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/e614c7bc32d2350b4ff1627ec761a7148e65bfe6.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add io resource readersKieran Bingham1-0/+57
Provide iomem_resource and ioports_resource printers and command hooks It can be quite interesting to halt the kernel as it's booting and check to see this list as it is being populated. It should be useful in the event that a kernel is not booting, you can identify what memory resources have been registered Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/f0a6b9fa9c92af4d7ed2e7343ccc84150e9c6fc5.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
