2012-10-17kbuild: make: fix if_changed when command contains backslashesSascha Hauer
commit c353acba28fb3fa1fd05fd6b85a9fc7938330f9c upstream. The call if_changed mechanism does not work when the command contains backslashes. This basically is an issue with lzo and bzip2 compressed kernels. The compressed binaries do not contain the uncompressed image size, so these use size_append to append the size. This results in backslashes in the executed command. With this if_changed always detects a change in the command and rebuilds the compressed image even if nothing has changed. Fix this by escaping backslashes in make-cmd Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Luebbe <jlu@pengutronix.de> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Bernhard Walle <bernhard@bwalle.de> Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
2012-10-17kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntaxJean Delvare
commit b1e0d8b70fa31821ebca3965f2ef8619d7c5e316 upstream. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

2012-10-17scripts/Kbuild.include: Fix portability problem of "echo -e"Bernhard Walle
commit 875de98623fa2b29f0cb19915fe3292ab6daa1cb upstream. "echo -e" is a GNU extension. When cross-compiling the kernel on a BSD-like operating system (Mac OS X in my case), this doesn't work. One could install a GNU version of echo, put that in the $PATH before the system echo and use "/usr/bin/env echo", but the solution with printf is simpler. Since it is no disadvantage on Linux, I hope that gets accepted even if cross-compiling the Linux kernel on another Unix operating system is quite a rare use case.

2012-10-17localmodconfig: Fix localyesconfig to set to 'y' not 'm'Yuta Ando
commit 4eae518d4b01b0cbf2f0d8edb5a6f3d6245ee8fb upstream. The kbuild target 'localyesconfig' has been same as 'localmodconfig' since the commit 50bce3e "kconfig/streamline_config.pl: merge local{mod,yes}config". The commit expects this script generates different configure depending on target, but it was not yet implemented. So I added code that sets to 'yes' when target is 'localyesconfig'.

2012-07-25kbuild: do not check for ancient modutils toolsLucas De Marchi
commit 620c231c7a7f48745094727bb612f6321cfc8844 upstream. scripts/depmod.sh checks for the output of '-V' expecting that it has module-init-tools in it. It's a hack to prevent users from using modutils instead of module-init-tools, that only works with 2.4.x kernels. This however prints an annoying warning for kmod tool, that is currently replacing module-init-tools. Rather than putting another check for kmod's version, just remove it since users of 2.4.x kernel are unlikely to upgrade to 3.x, and if they do, let depmod fail in that case because they should know what they are doing.

2012-05-31x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs toolH. Peter Anvin
commit 6520fe5564acf07ade7b18a1272db1184835c487 upstream. A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'. This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel initialization, these relocation entries can be used to relocate the code properly. In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'. 16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code. Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable data references. They are declared in the linker script of the real-mode code. The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree. [ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently produces bad kernels. ] Signed-off-by: H.

2012-05-11Fix modpost failures in fedora 17David Miller
commit e88aa7bbbe3046a125ea1936b16bb921cc9c6349 upstream. The symbol table on x86-64 starts to have entries that have names like: _GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0___mod_x86cpu_device_table They are of type STT_FUNCTION and this one had a length of 18. This matched the device ID validation logic and it barfed because the length did not meet the device type's criteria. -------------------- FATAL: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=18. Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h -------------------- These are some kind of compiler tool internal stuff being emitted and not something we want to inspect in modpost's device ID table validation code.

2012-04-13modpost: Fix modpost license checking of vmlinux.oFrank Rowand
commit 258f742635360175564e9470eb060ff4d4b984e7 upstream. Commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols") sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section. This sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker. Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux.o (which is not linked yet) and all modules object files (which aren't linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks modpost that can't detect license properly for modules. This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure. [ This above is a slightly corrected version of the explanation of the problem, copied from commit 62a2635610db ("modpost: Fix modpost's license checking V3"). That commit fixed the problem for module object files, but not for vmlinux.o.

2012-01-25recordmcount: Fix handling of elf64 big-endian objects.David Daney
commit 2e885057b7f75035f0b85e02f737891482815a81 upstream. In ELF64, the sh_flags field is 64-bits wide. recordmcount was erroneously treating it as a 32-bit wide field. For little endian objects this works because the flags of interest (SHF_EXECINSTR) reside in the lower 32 bits of the word, and you get the same result with either a 32-bit or 64-bit read. Big endian objects on the other hand do not work at all with this error. The fix: Correctly treat sh_flags as 64-bits wide in elf64 objects. The symptom I observed was that my __start_mcount_loc..__stop_mcount_loc was empty even though ftrace function tracing was enabled.

2012-01-25kconfig/streamline-config.pl: Fix parsing Makefile with variablesSteven Rostedt
commit 364212fddaaa60c5a64f67a0f5624ad996ecc8a0 upstream. Thomas Lange reported that when he did a 'make localmodconfig', his config was missing the brcmsmac driver, even though he had the module loaded. Looking into this, I found the file: drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmsmac/Makefile had the following in the Makefile: MODULEPFX := brcmsmac obj-$(CONFIG_BRCMSMAC) += $(MODULEPFX).o The way streamline-config.pl works, is parsing all the obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o lines to find that CONFIG_FOO belongs to the module foo.ko. But in this case, the brcmsmac.o was not used, but a variable in its place. By changing streamline-config.pl to remember defined variables in Makefiles and substituting them when they are used in the obj-X lines, allows Thomas (and others) to have their brcmsmac module stay configured when it is loaded and running "make localmodconfig".

2011-12-18kconfig: adapt update-po-config to new UML layoutPaul Bolle
Commit 5c48b108 ("um: take arch/um/sys-x86 to arch/x86/um") broke the make target update-po-config, as its symlink trick (again) fails. (Previous breakage was fixed with commit bdc69ca4 ("kconfig: change update-po-config to reflect new layout of arch/um").) The new UML layout allows to drop the symlick trick entirely. And if, one day, another architecture supports UML too, that should now work without again breaking this make target.

This script can be used to extract vmlinux from a compressed kernel image (bzImage, etc..). It's inspired from (a subset of) extract-ikconfig. It's something a lot of people have been looking for (mainly people with xen < 4 that doesn't support bzImages at all).

2011-08-25Staging: hv: file2alias: fix up alias creation logic for hv_vmbus_device_idGreg Kroah-Hartman
When I added the driver_data field to hv_vmbus_device_id, I forgot to take into the account how the alias was created, so it would append the kernel pointer to the end of the alias, which is not correct. This changes how the hv_vmbus_device_id alias is created to proper account for the driver_data field. As no module yet uses this alias, it is safe to fix this up at this point in the commit stream.

2011-08-08kbuild: Fix help text not displayed in choice option.Srinivas Kandagatla
Help text under choice menu is never displayed because it does not have symbol name associated with it, however many kconfigs have help text under choice, assuming that it will be displayed when user selects help. for example in Kconfig if we have: choice prompt "Choice" ---help--- HELP TEXT ... config A bool "A" config B bool "B" endchoice Without this patch "HELP TEXT" is not displayed when user selects help option when "Choice" is highlighted from menuconfig or xconfig or gconfig. This patch changes the logic in menu_get_ext_help to display help for cases which dont have symbol names like choice.
