* remove the v850 portAdrian Bunk2008-07-243-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trying to compile the v850 port brings many compile errors, one of them exists since at least kernel 2.6.19. There also seems to be noone willing to bring this port back into a usable state. This patch therefore removes the v850 port. If anyone ever decides to revive the v850 port the code will still be available from older kernels, and it wouldn't be impossible for the port to reenter the kernel if it would become actively maintained again.

With the case of ftrace, some files should simply not be profiled. Adding the -pg flag to these files is simply a waste, and adding "notrace" to each and every function is ugly. Currently we put in "Makefile turd" [1] to stop the compiler from adding -pg to certain files. This was clumsy and awkward. This patch now adds the revese of CFLAGS_(basename).o with CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o. This allows developers to prevent certain CFLAGS from being used to compile files. For example, we can now do CFLAGS_REMOVE_string.o = -pg to remove the -pg option from the string.o file in the lib directory. Note: a space delimited list of options may be added to the REMOVE macro.

Without this patch a powerpc build would error out and fail to build modules with the added register save/restore module. There were two obvious solutions: 1) To link the .o file before the modpost stage 2) To ignore the symbols in modpost Option 1) was ruled out because we do not have any separate linking stage for single file modules. This patch implements option 2 - and do so only for powerpc.

* modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcardJean Delvare2008-05-041-9/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Not all device types need a wildcard at the end of their module aliases. In particular, for i2c module aliases, the trailing wildcard is not only unneeded, it could also cause the wrong driver to be loaded. As I2C devices have no IDs, i2c module aliases are simple, arbitrary device names. For example: $ /sbin/modinfo lm90 filename: /lib/modules/2.6.25-git18/kernel/drivers/hwmon/lm90.ko author: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> description: LM90/ADM1032 driver license: GPL vermagic: 2.6.25-git18 mod_unload depends: hwmon alias: i2c:lm90* alias: i2c:adm1032* alias: i2c:lm99* alias: i2c:lm86* alias: i2c:max6657* alias: i2c:adt7461* alias: i2c:max6680* $ This would cause trouble if one I2C chip name matches the beginning of another I2C chip name and both chips are supported by different drivers. For example, an i2c device named lm9042 would cause the lm90 driver to be loaded, while it doesn't support that device. This case has yet to be seen in practice, but still, I'd like to fix it now. The cleanest fix is to remove the trailing wildcard from i2c module aliases. Here's a patch doing this. Not all device type aliases need a trailing wildcard, in particular the i2c aliases don't. Don't add a wildcard by default in do_table(), instead let each device type handler add it if needed. I have tested types acpi, dmi, eisa, i2c, ide, ieee1394, input, pci, pcmcia, platform, pnp, scsi, serio, ssb and usb. Other types (ccw, of, vio, parisc, sdio and virtio) are untested.

* i2c: Add support for device alias namesJean Delvare2008-04-291-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich. This patch allows new-style i2c chip drivers to have alias names using the official kernel aliasing system and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). At this point, the old i2c driver binding scheme (driver_name/type) is still supported.

* update checkpatch.pl to version 0.18Andy Whitcroft2008-04-291-5/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This version brings a few fixes for the extern checks, and a couple of new checks. Of note: - false is now recognised as a 0 assignment in static/external assignments, - printf format strings including %L are reported, - a number of fixes for the extern in .c file detector which had temporarily lost its ability to detect variables; undetected due to the loss of its test. Andy Whitcroft (8): Version: 0.18 false should trip 0 assignment checks tests: reinstate missing tests tests: allow specification of the file extension for a test fix extern checks for variables check for and report %Lu, %Ld, and %Li ensure we only start a statement on lines with some content extern spacing Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This version brings improvements to external declaration detection, fixes to quote tracking, fixes to unary tracking, some clarification of wording, and the usual slew of fixes for false positives. Of note: - much better unary tracking across preprocessor directives - UTF8 checks highlight the character at fault - widening of mutex detection Andy Whitcroft (17): Version: 0.17 values: __attribute__ carries through the previous type quotes: should only follow "positive" lines clarify the indent tabs over spaces wording loosen NR_CPUS check for array range initialisers detect external function declarations without an extern prefix function declaration arguments should be with the identifier DEFINE_MUTEX should report in line with struct mutex NR_CPUS is valid in preprocessor statements comment detection should not start on the @@ line types: add support for #undef tighten mutex/completion reports to usage allow export of function pointers values: preprocessor #define is out of line maintain values values: #define does not always have parentheses unary '*' may be const utf8 checks should report location of the invalid character Wolfram Sang (1): make checkpatch.pl really skip <asm/irq.h> Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* kconfig: add named choice groupRoman Zippel2008-04-286-223/+206
| | | | | | | | | | | | As choice dependency are now fully checked, it's quite easy to add support for named choices. This lifts the restriction that a choice value can only appear once, although it still has to be within the same group, but multiple choices can be joined by giving them a name. While at it I cleaned up a little the choice type logic to simplify it a bit. Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Also fix that sym_check_deps() correctly terminates the dependency loop error check (otherwise it would continue printing the dependency chain).

* kernel-doc: detect/prevent duplicate doc section namesRandy Dunlap2008-04-281-7/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I saw this problem recently. With this kernel-doc: * Note: some important info * * Note: other important info kernel-doc uses the "section name" (preceding the ':', like "Note") as a hash key for storing the descriptive text ("blah important info"). It is (was) possible to have duplicate (colliding) section names, without any kind of warning or error. kernel-doc happily used the latter descriptive text for all instances of printing the <section-name> descriptive text and the former important info was lost. One way to "fix" this is to modify the kernel-doc comments, e.g.: * Note1: foo bar * * Note.2: blah zay For now, kernel-doc will signal an error when it sees colliding section names like this.
