2014-12-10checkpatch: allow certain SI units with three charactersJulius Werner1-1/+3
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 Berg1-1/+1
The change from \d+ to .+ inside __aligned() means that the following structure: struct test { u8 a __aligned(2); u8 b __aligned(2); }; essentially gets modified to struct test { u8 a; }; for purposes of kernel-doc, thus dropping a struct member, which in turns causes warnings and invalid kernel-doc generation.

The shorthand "clean" is defined in both the top Makefile and scripts/Makefile.clean. Likewise, the "hdr-inst" is defined in both the top Makefile and scripts/Makefile.headersinst. To reduce code duplication, this commit collects them into scripts/Kbuild.include like the "build" and "modbuiltin" shorthands.

2014-11-08checkkconfigsymbols.py: improve detection of defectsValentin Rothberg1-30/+27
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. The following changes are made: - improve regex to find Kconfig identifiers in the source - exclude .log files from analysis - improve filtering of false positives (e.g, CONFIG_XXX) - change output format from (feature:\tlist) to (feature\tlist) Signed-off-by: Valentin Rothberg <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
2014-11-07checkkconfigsymbols.sh: reimplementation in pythonValentin Rothberg2-59/+142
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 Carstens2-2/+2
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.

2014-10-14checkpatch: enable whitespace checks for DTS filesGeert Uytterhoeven1-2/+2
When run on *.dtsi or *.dts files, the whitespace checks were skipped, while they are valid for DTS files. Hence stop skipping them. I ran checkpatch on all in-tree DTS files, and didn't notice any error or warning messages that are inappropriate for DTS files.

2014-10-14checkpatch: update $allowed_asm_includes macros, add reboot.h and time.hSergey Ryazanov1-1/+3
Several architectures (e.g. x86, MIPS, Blackfin) have asm/reboot.h and asm/time.h header files, which are not included in linux/reboot.h and linux/time.h headers. This lead to generation of false positive errors.

2014-10-02aarch64: filter $x from kallsymsKyle McMartin2-2/+2
Similar to ARM, AArch64 is generating $x and $d syms... which isn't terribly helpful when looking at %pF output and the like. Filter those out in kallsyms, modpost and when looking at module symbols. Seems simplest since none of these check EM_ARM anyway, to just add it to the strchr used, rather than trying to make things overly complicated. initcall_debug improves: dmesg_before.txt: initcall $x+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 26331 usecs dmesg_after.txt: initcall init_sg+0x0/0x154 [sg] returned 0 after 15461 usecs Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> Acked-by: Rusty Russell <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <[email protected]>
2014-10-02kbuild: simplify build, clean, modbuiltin shorthandsMasahiro Yamada2-3/+3
$(if $(KBUILD_SRC),$(srctree)/) was a useful strategy to omit a long absolute path for in-source-tree build prior to commit 890676c65d699db3ad82e7dddd0cf8fb449031af (kbuild: Use relative path when building in the source tree). Now $(srctree) is "." when building in the source tree. It would not be annoying to add "$(srctree)/" all the time.
