Regenerated the parser after "genksyms: Track changes to enum
constants".
Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>
Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
Enum constants can be used as array sizes; if the enum itself does not
appear in the symbol expansion, a change in the enum constant will go
unnoticed. Example patch that changes the ABI but does not change the
checksum with current genksyms:
| enum e {
| E1,
| E2,
|+ E3,
| E_MAX
| };
|
| struct s {
| int a[E_MAX];
| }
|
| int f(struct s *s) { ... }
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(f)
Therefore, remember the value of each enum constant and
expand each occurence to <constant> <value>. The value is not actually
computed, but instead an expression in the form
(last explicitly assigned value) + N
is used. This avoids having to parse and semantically understand whole
of C.
Note: The changes won't take effect until the lexer and parser are
rebuilt by the next patch.

While changing our build system over to use the headers_install target
as part of our klibc build, the following message started showing up in
our logs:
make[2]: `scripts/unifdef' is up to date.
It turns out that the build blindly invokes a recursive make on this
target, which causes make to emit this message when the target is
already up to date. This isn't seen for most targets as the rest of the
build relies primarily on the default target and on PHONY targets when
invoking make recursively.
Silence the above message when building unifdef as part of
headers_install by hiding it behind a new PHONY target called
"build_unifdef" that has an empty recipe.

The idea behind this option is targeted at developers who, in the
process of writing their code, want to do the occasional
make W=1 [target.o]
and let gcc do more extensive code checking for them. Then, they
could eyeball the output for valid gcc warnings about various
bugs/discrepancies which are not reported during the normal build

This implements the API defined in <linux/decompress/generic.h> which is
used for kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression. This patch together
with the first patch is enough for XZ-compressed initramfs and initrd;
XZ-compressed kernel will need arch-specific changes.
The buffering requirements described in decompress_unxz.c are stricter
than with gzip, so the relevant changes should be done to the
arch-specific code when adding support for XZ-compressed kernel.
Similarly, the heap size in arch-specific pre-boot code may need to be
increased (30 KiB is enough).
The XZ decompressor needs memmove(), memeq() (memcmp() == 0), and
memzero() (memset(ptr, 0, size)), which aren't available in all
arch-specific pre-boot environments. I'm including simple versions in
decompress_unxz.c, but a cleaner solution would naturally be nicer.

In userspace, the .lzma format has become mostly a legacy file format that
got superseded by the .xz format. Similarly, LZMA Utils was superseded by
XZ Utils.
These patches add support for XZ decompression into the kernel. Most of
the code is as is from XZ Embedded <http://tukaani.org/xz/embedded.html>.
It was written for the Linux kernel but is usable in other projects too.
Advantages of XZ over the current LZMA code in the kernel:
- Nice API that can be used by other kernel modules; it's
not limited to kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression.
- Integrity check support (CRC32)
- BCJ filters improve compression of executable code on
certain architectures. These together with LZMA2 can
produce a few percent smaller kernel or Squashfs images
than plain LZMA without making the decompression slower.
This patch: Add the main decompression code (xz_dec), testing module
(xz_dec_test), wrapper script (xz_wrap.sh) for the xz command line tool,
and documentation. The xz_dec module is enough to have a usable XZ
decompressor e.g. for Squashfs.

Turns out this is an arguable defect in the script.
The MAINTAINERS entry for mm is:
MEMORY MANAGEMENT
L: linux-mm@kvack.org
W: http://www.linux-mm.org
S: Maintained
F: include/linux/mm.h
F: mm/
There's a maintainer entry, but no named individual, so the script doesn't
use git history via --git-fallback.
This is also a defect for MAINTAINERS with status entries marked "Orphan"
or "Odd fixes".
The script now checks a section for any "M:" entry and that an "S:" entry
is supported or maintained. If both those conditions are not satisified,
use --git-fallback as appropriate.

It was messy to follow the primary flow of code execution with the

This patch fixes a segfault in modpost that is observed when the gold
linker is used to link the input objects.
The problem is that reloc_location (modpost.c) is computing the
address of the relocation target incorrectly. Here, elf->hdr points
to the beginning of the ELF file in memory, sechdr points to the
relocation section header, section is the index of the section
being relocated, and sechdrs[section].sh_offset would be the offset
of that section, relative to the beginning of the ELF file. Adding
elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset gives you the address of the
beginning of the section, and adding r->r_offset to that gives you the
address of the location to be relocated. You do not need to subtract
sechdrs[section].sh_addr from that -- the result of this is an address
outside the file, and causes the segfault when addend_386_rel tries to
dereference it.
This bug is not observed when GNU ld is used to link the inputs. The
object file ubuntu/omnibook/omnibook.o is the result of an ld -r of
several other files. When GNU ld does an ld -r, it sets the vaddr
field for each section to 0, but gold lays out the section addresses
sequentially instead:
Section Headers:
[Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al
[ 0] NULL 00000000 000000 000000 00 0 0 0
[ 1] .text PROGBITS 00000000 000034 004794 00 AX 0 0 4
[ 2] .data PROGBITS 0000b9d0 0047c8 0009c0 00 WA 0 0 4
[ 3] .bss NOBITS 000162f8 005188 00013c 00 WA 0 0 4
[ 4] .rodata.str1.1 PROGBITS 00004f2d 0052c4 001b1a 01 AMS 0 0 1
[ 5] .init.text PROGBITS 00004794 006dde 0005fa 00 AX 0 0 1
[ 6] .exit.text PROGBITS 00004d8e 0073d8 00018a 00 AX 0 0 1
...
So the bug in the tool remained undiscovered because the section's vaddr
always happened to be 0.

This patch adds support for linking device tree blob(s) into

.dtb sections into vmlinux. To maintain compatiblity with the of/fdt
driver code platforms MUST copy the blob to a non-init memory location
before the kernel frees the .init.* sections in the image.
Modifies scripts/Makefile.lib to add a kbuild command to
compile DTS files to device tree blobs and a rule to create objects to
wrap the blobs for linking.
STRUCT_ALIGNMENT is defined in vmlinux.lds.h for use in the rule to
create wrapper objects for the dtb in Makefile.lib. The
STRUCT_ALIGN() macro in vmlinux.lds.h is modified to use the
STRUCT_ALIGNMENT definition.
The DTB's are placed on 32 byte boundries to allow parsing the blob
with driver/of/fdt.c during early boot without having to copy the blob
to get the structure alignment GCC expects.
A DTB is linked in by adding the DTB object to the list of objects to
be linked into vmlinux in the archtecture specific Makefile using
obj-y += foo.dtb.o

This is an attempt to simplify the expressing printed by kconfig when a
symbol is selected but still has direct unmet dependency.
First, the symbol reverse dependency is split in sub-expression. Then,
each sub-expression is checked to ensure that it does not contains the
unmet dependency. This removes the false-positive symbols and fixed symbol
which already have the correct dependency. Finally, only the symbol
responsible of the "select" is printed, instead of its full dependency tree.
