Using an else following a break or return can unnecessarily indent code
blocks.
ie:
for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
int foo = bar();
if (foo < 1)
break;
else
usleep(1);
}
is generally better written as:
for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
int foo = bar();
if (foo < 1)
break;
usleep(1);
}
Warn when a bare else statement is preceded by a break or return
indented 1 tab more than the else.

Logging messages that show some type of "out of memory" error are
generally unnecessary as there is a generic message and a stack dump
done by the memory subsystem.
These messages generally increase kernel size without much added value.
Emit a warning on these types of messages.
This test looks for any inserted message function, then looks at the
previous line for an "if (!foo)" or "if (foo == NULL)" test and then
looks at the preceding statement for an allocation function like "foo =
kmalloc()"
ie: this code matches:
foo = kmalloc();
if (foo == NULL) {
printk("Out of memory\n");
return -ENOMEM;
}
This test is very crude and incomplete.
This test can miss quite a lot of of OOM messages that do not have this
specific form.
ie: this code does not match:
foo = kmalloc();
if (!foo) {
rtn = -ENOMEM;
printk("Out of memory!\n");
goto out;
}
This test could also be a false positive when the logging message itself
does not specify anything about memory, but I did not find any false
positives in my limited testing.
spatch could be a better solution but correctness seems non-trivial for
that tool too.

Object-like macros are different than function-like macros:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Object-like-Macros.htmlhttps://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Function-like-Macros.html
They are not parsed correctly, generating invalid intermediate
files (xmls) for cases like:
#define BIT_MASK (0xFF << BIT_SHIFT)
where "OxFF <<" is considered to be parameter type.
When parsing, we can differentiate beween these two types of macros by

These updates fix one bug in the component helper where the matched
components are not properly cleaned up when the master fails to bind.
I'll provide a version of this for stable trees if it's deemed that
we need to backport it.
The second patch causes the component helper to ignore duplicate
matches when adding components - this is something that was originally
needed for imx-drm, but since that has now been updated, we no longer
need to skip over a component which has already been matched.
The final patch starts the process of updating the component helper
API to achieve two goals: to allow the API to be more efficient when
deferred probing occurs, and to allow for future improvements to the
component helper without having a major impact on the users.
This represents groundwork for some other changes; once this has been
merged, I will then send two further pull requests (one for the staging
tree, and one for the DRM tree) to update the drivers to the new API.
This will result in these three commits being shared with those trees.

On MIPS calls to _mcount in modules generate 2 instructions to load
the _mcount address (and therefore 2 relocations). The mcount_loc
table should only reference the first of these, so the second is
filtered out by checking the relocation offset and ignoring ones that
immediately follow the previous one seen.
However if a module has an _mcount call at offset 0, the second
relocation would not be filtered out due to old_r_offset == 0
being taken to mean that the current relocation is the first one
seen, and both would end up in the mcount_loc table.
This results in ftrace_make_nop() patching both (adjacent)
instructions to branches over the _mcount call sequence like so:
0xffffffffc08a8000: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8014
0xffffffffc08a8004: 04 00 00 10 b 0xffffffffc08a8018
0xffffffffc08a8008: 2d 08 e0 03 move at,ra
...
The second branch is in the delay slot of the first, which is
defined to be unpredictable - on the platform on which this bug was
encountered, it triggers a reserved instruction exception.
Fix by initializing old_r_offset to ~0 and using that instead of 0
to determine whether the current relocation is the first seen.

[ 6.907121] [<ffffffff84388ce8>] dump_stack+0x52/0x7f

[ 6.909480] [<ffffffff810020c2>] do_one_initcall+0xc2/0x1e0
[...]
However, most of the text you get is pure garbage.
The only useful thing above is the function name. Due to the amount of
different kernel code versions and various configurations being used,
the kernel address and the offset into the function are not really
helpful in determining where the problem actually occured.
Too often the result of someone looking at a stack dump is asking the
person who sent it for a translation for one or more 'addr2line'
translations. Which slows down the entire process of debugging the
issue (and really annoying).
The decode_stacktrace script is an attempt to make the output more
useful and easy to work with by translating all kernel addresses in the
stack dump into line numbers. Which means that the stack dump would
look like this:
[ 635.148361] dump_stack (lib/dump_stack.c:52)
[ 635.149127] warn_slowpath_common (kernel/panic.c:418)

It's pretty obvious why this is better than the previous stack dump
before.
Usage is pretty simple:
./decode_stacktrace.sh [vmlinux] [base path]
Where vmlinux is the vmlinux to extract line numbers from and base path
is the path that points to the root of the build tree, for example:
./decode_stacktrace.sh vmlinux /home/sasha/linux/ < input.log > output.log
The stack trace should be piped through it (I, for example, just pipe
the output of the serial console of my KVM test box through it).

Prior to this commit, the command "scripts/objdiff record path/to/*.o"
disassembled the given object into ".tmp_objdiff/path/to/*.o" file.
The problem here is that recorded disassemblies are lost if we run
"make clean" because it removes all the *.o files.
Disassembled code should be dumped into *.dis instead of *.o files.

Prior to this commit, scripts/objdiff expected to be run at the top
directory and only the relative path of objects.
This commit provides more flexibility in terms of object path:
[1] scripts/objdiff can be run in any directory
For example,
$ scripts/objdiff record init/main.o
and
$ cd init; ../scripts/objdiff record main.o
produce the same result.
[2] Support absolute path for objects
$ scripts/objdiff record /home/foo/bar/linux/init/main.o

This commit is a minor refactoring.
Temporary files for objdiff are stored in .tmp_objdiff directory
which is located at the top directory.
To get the path to this directory,
SRCTREE=`git rev-parse --show-toplevel`
TMPD=$SRCTREE/.tmp_objdiff
seems easier to understand than
GIT_DIR=`git rev-parse --git-dir`
TMPD=${GIT_DIR%git}tmp_objdiff
Besides, it is not always necessary to create .tmp_objdiff dicrectory.
It should be created only for "record" command.

Debian supports multiarch and officially supports s390x, it makes more

Since commit 22d651dcef ('selftests/powerpc:
Import Anton's memcpy / copy_tofrom_user tests'), some source files in the
tree appear as symlink.
Until commit 8c38a5328a ('scripts/tags.sh:
ignore code of user space tools'), those symlinks made cscope report some
warnings:
$ make ALLSOURCE_ARCHS=all O=./obj-cscope/ cscope
GEN cscope
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/copyuser_power7.S
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/memcpy_64.S
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/memcpy_power7.S
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/copyuser_64.S
In order to prevent the same kind of warnings to be triggered by future
addition of symlinks, the best option is to ignore all symlinks when
building the file list to be processed by cscope (and other tools
supported by scripts/tags.sh).
Ignoring symlinks won't hide source files from cscope (and others) as the
target of these symlinks already appear somewhere else in the tree, and,
as such, should be processed by cscope (or others).
Note that, cscope, when used with -R option to make it find the files to
process by itself, already skip symlinks: it's not expected that cscope
access source files through symlink.
On top of commit 8c38a5328a ('scripts/tags.sh:
ignore code of user space tools'), scripts/tags.sh output from
"make cscope tags TAGS" is the same with and without this patch: it doesn't
seems to introduce any regression (on Fedora 20).

For <chip>, lower case characters and numbers are permitted. For <part#>,

Recordmcount utility under scripts is run, after compiling each object,
to find out all the locations of calling _mcount() and put them into
specific seciton named __mcount_loc.
Then linker collects all such information into a table in the kernel image
(between __start_mcount_loc and __stop_mcount_loc) for later use by ftrace.
This patch adds arm64 specific definitions to identify such locations.
There are two types of implementation, C and Perl. On arm64, only C version
is used to build the kernel now that CONFIG_HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT is on.
But Perl version is also maintained.
This patch also contains a workaround just in case where a header file,
elf.h, on host machine doesn't have definitions of EM_AARCH64 nor
R_AARCH64_ABS64. Without them, compiling C version of recordmcount will
fail.

objdiff is useful when doing large code cleanups. For example, when
removing checkpatch warnings and errors from new drivers in the staging
tree.
objdiff can be used in conjunction with a git rebase to confirm that
each commit made no changes to the resulting object code. It has the
same return values as diff(1).
This was written specifically to support adding the skein and threefish
cryto drivers to the staging tree. I needed a programmatic way to
confirm that commits changing >90% of the lines didn't inadvertently
change the code.

"make allnoconfig" exists to ease testing of minimal configurations.
Documentation/SubmitChecklist includes a note to test with allnoconfig.
This helps catch missing dependencies on common-but-not-required
functionality, which might otherwise go unnoticed.
However, allnoconfig still leaves many symbols enabled, because they're
hidden behind CONFIG_EMBEDDED or CONFIG_EXPERT. For instance, allnoconfig
still has CONFIG_PRINTK and CONFIG_BLOCK enabled, so drivers don't
typically get build-tested with those disabled.
To address this, introduce a new Kconfig option "allnoconfig_y", used on
symbols which only exist to hide other symbols. Set it on CONFIG_EMBEDDED
(which then selects CONFIG_EXPERT). allnoconfig will then disable all the
symbols hidden behind those.

Currently the parenthesis alignment test works only on misalignments of
if statements like
if (foo(bar,
baz)
Expand the test to find misalignments like:
static inline int foo(int bar,
int baz)
and
foo(bar,
baz);
and
foo = bar(baz,
qux);
Expand the $Inline keyword for __inline and __inline__ too.
Add $Inline to $Declare so it also matches "static inline <foo>".
These checks are only performed with --strict.

A commit hook for the Gerrit code review server [1] inserts change
identifiers so Gerrit can track patches through multiple revisions.
These identifiers are noise in the context of the upstream kernel.
(Many Gerrit servers are private. Even given a public instance, given
only a Change-Id, one must guess which server a change was tracked on.
Patches submitted to the Linux kernel mailing lists should be able to
stand on their own. If it's truly useful to reference code review on a
Gerrit server, a URL is a much clearer way to do so.) Thus, issue an
error when a Change-Id line is encountered before the Signed-off-by.

This test is a bit noisy and opinions seem to agree that it should not
warn in a lot more situations.
It seems people agree that:
return (foo || bar);
and
return foo || bar;
are both acceptable style and checkpatch should be silent about them.
For now, it warns on parentheses around a simple constant or a single
function or a ternary.
return (foo);
return (foo(bar));
return (foo ? bar : baz);
The last ternary test may be quieted in the future.
Modify the deparenthesize function to only strip balanced leading and

Recent increased use of typeof() throughout the tree resulted in a
number of symbols (25 in a typical distro config of ours) not getting a
proper CRC calculated for them anymore, due to the parser in genksyms
not coping with several of these uses (interestingly in the majority of
[if not all] cases the problem is due to the use of typeof() in code
preceding a certain export, not in the declaration/definition of the
exported function/object itself; I wasn't able to find a way to address
this more general parser shortcoming).
The use of parameter_declaration is a little more relaxed than would be
ideal (permitting not just a bare type specification, but also one with
identifier), but since the same code is being passed through an actual
compiler, there's no apparent risk of allowing through any broken code.
Otoh using parameter_declaration instead of the ad hoc
"decl_specifier_seq '*'" / "decl_specifier_seq" pair allows all types to
be handled rather than just plain ones and pointers to plain ones.

Updates to devicetree core code. This branch contains the following notable changes:
* Add reserved memory binding
* Make struct device_node a kobject and remove legacy /proc/device-tree
* ePAPR conformance fixes
* Update in-kernel DTC copy to version v1.4.0
* Preparation changes for dynamic device tree overlays
* minor bug fixes and documentation changes
The most significant change in this branch is the conversion of struct
device_node to be a kobject that is exposed via sysfs and removal of the
old /proc/device-tree code. This simplifies the device tree handling
code and tightens up the lifecycle on device tree nodes.

x86-64 has a problem: per-cpu variables are actually represented by
their absolute offsets within the per-cpu area, but the symbols are
not emitted as absolute. Thus kallsyms naively creates them as offsets
from _text, meaning their values change if the kernel is relocated
(especially noticeable with CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE):
$ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /root/kallsyms.nokaslr
0000000000000000 D __per_cpu_start
0000000000004000 D gdt_page
0000000000014280 D __per_cpu_end
ffffffff810001c8 T _stext
ffffffff81ee53c0 D __per_cpu_offset
$ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /root/kallsyms.kaslr1
000000001f200000 D __per_cpu_start
000000001f204000 D gdt_page
000000001f214280 D __per_cpu_end
ffffffffa02001c8 T _stext
ffffffffa10e53c0 D __per_cpu_offset
Making them absolute symbols is the Right Thing, but requires fixes to
the relocs tool. So for the moment, we add a --absolute-percpu option
which makes them absolute from a kallsyms perspective:
$ egrep ' (gdt_|_(stext|_per_cpu_))' /proc/kallsyms # no KASLR
0000000000000000 A __per_cpu_start
000000000000a000 A gdt_page

Commit 78551277e4: "Input: i8042 - add PNP modaliases" had a bug, where the
second call to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() overrode the first resulting in not all
the modaliases being exposed.
This fixes the problem by including the name of the device_id table in the
__mod_*_device_table alias, allowing us to export several device_id tables
per module.

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"A number of ARM updates for -rc, covering mostly ARM specific code,
but with one change to modpost.c to allow Thumb section mismatches to
be detected.
ARM changes include reporting when an attempt is made to boot a LPAE
kernel on hardware which does not support LPAE, rather than just being
silent about it.
A number of other minor fixes are included too"
* 'fixes' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: 7992/1: boot: compressed: ignore bswapsdi2.S
ARM: 7991/1: sa1100: fix compile problem on Collie
ARM: fix noMMU kallsyms symbol filtering
ARM: 7980/1: kernel: improve error message when LPAE config doesn't match CPU
ARM: 7964/1: Detect section mismatches in thumb relocations
ARM: 7963/1: mm: report both sections from PMD
Currently symbols that are absolute addresses are incorrectly displayed
in /proc/kallsyms if the kernel is loaded with kASLR.
The problem was that the scripts/kallsyms.c file which generates the
array of symbol names and addresses uses an relocatable value for all
symbols, even absolute symbols. This patch fixes that.
Several kallsyms output in different boot states for comparison:

LZ4 as implemented in the kernel differs from the default method now
used by the reference implementation of LZ4. Until the in-kernel method
is updated to support the new default, passing the legacy flag (-l) to

LZ4-compressed initramfs is junk.

Unlike other build products in the Linux kernel, there is no 'make
*install' mechanism to put devicetree blobs in a standard place.
This commit adds a new 'dtbs_install' make target which copies all of
the dtbs into the INSTALL_DTBS_PATH directory. INSTALL_DTBS_PATH can be
set before calling make to change the default install directory. If not
set then it defaults to:
$INSTALL_PATH/dtbs/$KERNELRELEASE.
This is done to keep dtbs from different kernel versions separate until
things have settled down. Once the dtbs are stable, and not so strongly
linked to the kernel version, the devicetree files will most likely move
to their own repo. Users will need to upgrade install scripts at that
time.
v7: (reworked by Grant Likely)
- Moved rules from arch/arm/Makefile to arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile so
that each dtb install could have a separate target and be reported as
part of the make output.
- Fixed dependency problem to ensure $KERNELRELEASE is calculated before
attempting to install
- Removed option to call external script. Copying the files should be
sufficient and a build system can post-process the install directory.
Despite the fact an external script is used for installing the kernel,
I don't think that is a pattern that should be encouraged. I would
rather see buildroot type tools post process the install directory to
rename or move dtb files after installing to a staging directory.
- Plus it is easy to add a hook after the fact without blocking the
rest of this feature.
- Move the helper targets into scripts/Makefile.lib with the rest of the
common dtb rules

The testcase data is usable by any platform. This patch moves it into
the drivers/of directory so it can be included by any architecture.
Using the test cases requires manually adding #include <testcases.dtsi>

pretty though. A useful project would be to make the testcase code

The x86 CPU feature modalias handling existed before it was reimplemented
generically. This patch aligns the x86 handling so that it
(a) reuses some more code that is now generic;
(b) uses the generic format for the modalias module metadata entry, i.e., it
now uses 'cpu:type:x86,venVVVVfamFFFFmodMMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' instead of
the 'x86cpu:vendor:VVVV👪FFFF:model:MMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' that was
used before.

This patch adds support for advertising optional CPU features over udev
using the modalias, and for declaring compatibility with/dependency upon
such a feature in a module.
The mapping between feature numbers and actual features should be provided
by the architecture in a file called <asm/cpufeature.h> which exports the
following functions/macros:
- cpu_feature(FEAT), a preprocessor macro that maps token FEAT to a
numeric index;
- bool cpu_have_feature(n), returning whether this CPU has support for
feature #n;
- MAX_CPU_FEATURES, an upper bound for 'n' in the previous function.
The feature can then be enabled by setting CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_AUTOPROBE
for the architecture.
For instance, a module that registers its module init function using
module_cpu_feature_match(FEAT_X, module_init_function)
will be probed automatically when the CPU's support for the 'FEAT_X'
feature is advertised over udev, and will only allow the module to be
loaded by hand if the 'FEAT_X' feature is supported.

Commit afe2dab4f6 ("USB: add hex/bcd detection to usb modalias generation")
changed the routine that generates alias ranges. Before that change, only
digits 0-9 were supported; the commit tried to fix the case when the range
includes higher values than 0x9.
Unfortunately, the commit didn't fix the case when the range includes both
0x9 and 0xA, meaning that the final range must look like [x-9A-y] where
x <= 0x9 and y >= 0xA -- instead the [x-9A-x] range was produced.
Modprobe doesn't complain as it sees no difference between no-match and
bad-pattern results of fnmatch().
Fixing this simple bug to fix the aliases.

other letters are also uppercase in the device version numbers.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As far as the number of commits goes, the top spot belongs to ACPI
this time with cpufreq in the second position and a handful of PM
core, PNP and cpuidle updates. They are fixes and cleanups mostly, as
usual, with a couple of new features in the mix.
The most visible change is probably that we will create struct
acpi_device objects (visible in sysfs) for all devices represented in
the ACPI tables regardless of their status and there will be a new
sysfs attribute under those objects allowing user space to check that
status via _STA.
Consequently, ACPI device eject or generally hot-removal will not
delete those objects, unless the table containing the corresponding
namespace nodes is unloaded, which is extremely rare. Also ACPI
container hotplug will be handled quite a bit differently and cpufreq
will support CPU boost ("turbo") generically and not only in the
acpi-cpufreq driver.
Specifics:
- ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for
every device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace
scans regardless of the current status of that device. In
accordance with this, ACPI hotplug operations will not delete those
objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables go away.
- On top of the above, new sysfs attribute for ACPI device objects
allowing user space to check device status by triggering the
execution of _STA for its ACPI object. From Srinivas Pandruvada.
- ACPI core hotplug changes reducing code duplication, integrating
the PCI root hotplug with the core and reworking container hotplug.
- ACPI core simplifications making it use ACPI_COMPANION() in the
code "glueing" ACPI device objects to "physical" devices.
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20131218. This adds support for
the DBG2 and PCCT tables to ACPICA, fixes some bugs and improves
debug facilities. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng and Betty Dall.
- Init code change to carry out the early ACPI initialization
earlier. That should allow us to use ACPI during the timekeeping
initialization and possibly to simplify the EFI initialization too.
From Chun-Yi Lee.
- Clenups of the inclusions of ACPI headers in many places all over
from Lv Zheng and Rashika Kheria (work in progress).
- New helper for ACPI _DSM execution and rework of the code in
drivers that uses _DSM to execute it via the new helper. From
Jiang Liu.
- New Win8 OSI blacklist entries from Takashi Iwai.
- Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Al Stone, Emil Goode, Hanjun
Guo, Lan Tianyu, Masanari Iida, Oliver Neukum, Prarit Bhargava,
Rashika Kheria, Tang Chen, Zhang Rui.
- intel_pstate driver updates, including proper Baytrail support,
from Dirk Brandewie and intel_pstate documentation from Ramkumar
Ramachandra.
- Generic CPU boost ("turbo") support for cpufreq from Lukasz
Majewski.
- powernow-k6 cpufreq driver fixes from Mikulas Patocka.
- cpufreq core fixes and cleanups from Viresh Kumar, Jane Li, Mark
Brown.
- Assorted cpufreq drivers fixes and cleanups from Anson Huang, John
Tobias, Paul Bolle, Paul Walmsley, Sachin Kamat, Shawn Guo, Viresh
Kumar.
- cpuidle cleanups from Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz.
- Support for hibernation APM events from Bin Shi.
- Hibernation fix to avoid bringing up nonboot CPUs with ACPI EC
disabled during thaw transitions from Bjørn Mork.
- PM core fixes and cleanups from Ben Dooks, Leonardo Potenza, Ulf
Hansson.
- PNP subsystem fixes and cleanups from Dmitry Torokhov, Levente
Kurusa, Rashika Kheria.
- New tool for profiling system suspend from Todd E Brandt and a
cpupower tool cleanup from One Thousand Gnomes"
