Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@computergmbh.de> reported: You can cause a recursion in kbuild/make with the following: make O=$PWD kernel/time.o make mrproper Of course no one would use O=$PWD (that's just the testcase), but this happened too often: /ws/linux/linux-2.6.23$ make O=/ws/linux/linux-2.6.23 kernel/time.o (Oops - should have been O=/ws/linux/obj-2.6.23!) Fixed by an explicit test for this case - we error out if output directory and source directory are the same.

With specific configurations requesting help for certain menu lines caused menuconfig to crash. This was tracked down to a null pointer bug.

Previously kbuild choked over the following: obj-y += ../../../arch/i386/kernel/bootflag.o This has resulted in some rather ugly workarounds in current x86_64 tree. This patch fixes kbuild to allow the above and enable potential cleanups in x86_64 and maybe in other places. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

This patch updates the _shipped files for genksyms. See previous patch for actual functional changes. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Sam Ravnborg authored
Recently the __extension__ keyword has been introduced in the kernel. Teach genksyms about this keyword so it can generate correct CRC for exported symbols that uses a symbol marked __extension__. For now only the typedef variant: __extension__ typedef ... is supported. Later we may add more variants as needed. This patch contains the actual source file changes. The following patch will hold modifications to the generated files (*_shipped) and only after the second patch the fix has effect. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

When enabling GENERATE_PARSER the genksyms Makefile failed to create _shipped version of generated files. Modifying keywords.gperf failed to cause a rebuild of genksyms. Fixed by specifying keywowrds .c as explicit prerequisite of the lexer. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Currently scripts/ver_linux prints "Binutils" or other random information for the version number in the "binutils" output line on some distributions. This patch corrects that. When I initially submitted a patch to correct that, I was not aware that the output from "ld -v" could differ as much as it turned out it can, so my original fix turned out to not cover all bases. This patch works correctly with all the different "ld -v" output that people posted in replys to my first patch, so it should be a clear win over what we have currently.

Fix ver_linux glibc version printing (for real this time) Alexey Dobriyan reported that commit 4a645d5e broke ver_linux when glibc has a 3 digit version number, and proposed a patch. Al Viro then suggested a simpler way to solve the problem which I've then simply put into patch form.

To avoid having to look manually for used but undefined Kconfig variables, I've written a script which tries do this efficiently, in case all other attention fail. It accounts for _MODULE suffix and for UML_ prefixes to Kconfig variable, but otherwise looks for exact matches (i.e. \<CONFIG_; this is done to exclude macros like MMCONFIG_). Undefined Kconfig variables should be not be removed without care, but for instance arch/i386/boot/ uses a bunch of undefined Kconfig vars: $ scripts/checkunknowndefines.sh arch/i386/boot/ arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_400_HACK arch/i386/boot/video-vga.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_400_HACK arch/i386/boot/video.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_RETAIN arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_RETAIN arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_SVGA arch/i386/boot/video.h uses undefined symbol VIDEO_VESA arch/i386/boot/video-vesa.c uses undefined symbol VIDEO_VESA It should also be mentioned in SubmittingPatches and SubmitChecklist.

cygwin provides the header file but the lib file needs to be added manually. A generic fix is to check if we can compile and link a program that uses gettext() and if it fails fall back to NO_NLS. International users of cygwin may have to specify HOST_LOADLIBES := "-lintl" on the make command line. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Make sure and not dump reserved areas of device space. Touching some of these causes machine check exceptions on boards like D-Link DGE-550SX. Coding note, used a complex switch statement rather than bitmap because it is easier to relate the block values to the documentation rather than looking at a encoded bitmask.

Currently find_legacy_serial_ports() can find no serial ports on the OPB with flattened device tree. Thus no legacy boot console can be initialized. Just the early udbg console works, which is initialized with udbg_init_44x_as1 on the UART's physical address specified in kernel config. This happens because we look for ns16750 serial devices only and expect opb node to have a device type property. This patch makes it look for ns16550-compatible devices and use of_device_is_compatible() for opb in case device type is not specified.

This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them (currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T). We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree. We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted) and is not addressed here. Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
