2010-03-06scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --file-emails, find embedded email addressesJoe Perches
Add an imperfect option to search a source file for email addresses. New option: --file-emails or --fe email addresses in files are freeform text and are nearly impossible to parse. Still, might as well try to do a somewhat acceptable job of finding them. This code should find all addresses that are in the form addr@domain.tld The code assumes that up to 3 alphabetic words along with dashes, commas, and periods that preceed the email address are a name. If 3 words are found for the name, and one of the first two words are a single letter and period, or just a single letter then the 3 words are use as name otherwise the last 2 words are used. Some variants that are shown correctly: John Smith <jksmith@domain.org> Random J. Developer <rjd@tld.com> Random J. Developer (rjd@tld.com) J. Random Developer rjd@tld.com Variants that are shown nominally correctly: Written by First Last (funny-addr@somecompany.com) is shown as: First Last <funny-addr@somecompany.com> Variants that are shown incorrectly: Some Really Long Name <srln@foo.bar> MontaVista Software, Inc. <source@mvista.com> are returned as: Long Name <srln@foo.bar> "Software, Inc" <source@mvista.com> --roles and --rolestats show "(in file)" for matches. For instance: Without -file-emails: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f -nogit -roles net/core/netpoll.c David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> (maintainer:NETWORKING [GENERAL]) linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list) With -fe: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f -fe -nogit -roles net/core/netpoll.c David S.

2010-02-26kernel-doc: track line numbers for each file separatelyIlya Dryomov
The problem is that $. keeps track of the current record number (which is line number by default). But if you pass it multiple files, it does not wrap at the end of file, and therefore contains the *total* number of processed lines. I suppose we can fix line numbering by introducing a simple assignment $. = 1 before processing every new file.

2010-02-17tags: include headers before source filesGuennadi Liakhovetski
Currently looking up a structure definition in TAGS / tags takes one to one of multiple "static struct X" definitions in arch sources, which makes it for many structs practically impossible to get to the required header. This patch changes the order of sources being tagged to first scan architecture includes, then the top-level include/ directory, and only then the rest. It also takes into account, that many architectures have more than one include directory, i.e., not only arch/$ARCH/include, but also arch/$ARCH/mach-X/include etc. Signed-off-by: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@gmx.de> Reviewed-by: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> [mmarek@suse.cz: fix 'var+=text' bashism] Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

2010-02-02kconfig: Add LSMOD=file to override the lsmod for localmodconfigSteven Rostedt
Doing the following: make LSMOD=file localmodconfig Will make the streamline-config code use the given file instead of lsmod. If the file is an executable, it will execute it, otherwise it will read it as text. make LSMOD=/my/local/path/lsmod localmodconfig The above will execute the lsmod in /my/local/path instead of the lsmods that may be located elsewhere. make LSMOD=embedded_board_lsmod localmodconfig The above will read the "embedded_board_lsmod" as a text file. This is useful if you are doing a cross compile and need to run the config against modules that exist on an embedded device. Note, if the LSMOD= file does is not a path, it will add the path to the object directory. That is, the above example will look for "embedded_board_lsmod" in the directory that the binary will be built in (the O=dir directory).

2010-02-02scripts: change scripts to use system python instead of envDon Zickus
Just a small change to a couple of scripts to go from #!/usr/bin/env python to #!/usr/bin/python This shouldn't effect anyone, unless they don't install python there. In preparation for python3, Fedora is doing a big push to change the scripts to use the system python. This allows developers to put the python3 in their path without fear of breaking existing scripts. Now I am pretty sure anyone using python3 for testing purposes will probably not run any of the scripts I changed, but Fedora has this automated tool that checks for this stuff so I thought I would try to push it upstream.

2010-02-02Improve kconfig symbol hashingAndi Kleen
While looking for something else I noticed that the symbol hash function used by kconfig is quite poor. It doesn't use any of the standard hash techniques but simply adds up the string and then uses power of two masking, which is both known to perform poorly. The current x86 kconfig has over 7000 symbols. When I instrumented it showed that the minimum hash chain length was 16 and a significant number of them was over 30. It didn't help that the hash table size was only 256 buckets. This patch increases the hash table size to a larger prime and switches to a FNV32 hash. I played around with a couple of hash functions, but that one seemed to perform best with reasonable hash table sizes. Increasing the hash table size even further didn't seem like a good idea, because there are a couple of global walks which walk the complete hash table. I also moved the unnamed bucket to 0. It's still the longest of all the buckets (44 entries), but hopefully it's not often hit except for the global walk which doesn't care. The result is a much nicer distribution: (first column bucket length, second number of buckets with that length) 1: 3505 2: 1236 3: 294 4: 52 5: 3 47: 1 <--- this is the unnamed symbols bucket There are still some 5+ buckets, but increasing the hash table even more would be likely not worth it. This also cleans up the code slightly by removing hard coded magic numbers. I didn't notice a big performance difference either way on my Nehalem system, but I presume it'll help somewhat on slower systems.

Help text for certain config options is very extensive (the text includes the names of all other options the option in question depends on). Long lines are not wrapped, making it impossible to see the list without scrolling horizontally. This patch adds some logic which wraps help screen lines at word boundaries to prevent truncating. Tested by running ARCH=powerpc make menuconfig O=/tmp/build which shows that the long lines are now wrapped, and ARCH=powerpc make xconfig O=/tmp/build to demonstrate that it still compiles and operates as expected.

The workaround is to strip the object file first. - The faulting instruction is marked (liked so) in ARM, but <like so> in x86. - ARM mnemonics may include characters such as [] which need to be escaped before being passed to sed for the "<- trapping instruction" substitution.

2010-01-17modpost: fix segfault in sym_is() with prefixed archesMike Frysinger
The sym_is() compares a symbol in an attempt to automatically skip symbol prefixes. It does this first by searching the real symbol with the normal unprefixed symbol. But then it uses the length of the original symbol to check the end of the substring instead of the length of the symbol it is looking for. On non-prefixed arches, this is effectively the same thing, so there is no problem. On prefixed-arches, since this is exceeds by just one byte, a crash is rare and it is usually a NUL byte anyways. But every once in a blue moon, you get the right page alignment and it segfaults. For example, on the Blackfin arch, sym_is() will be called with the real symbol "___mod_usb_device_table" as "symbol" when looking for the normal symbol "__mod_usb_device_table" as "name". The substring will thus return one byte into "symbol" and store it into "match". But then "match" will be indexed with the length of "symbol" instead of "name" and so we will exceed the storage. i.e. the code ends up doing: char foo[] = "abc"; return foo[strlen(foo)+1] == '\0'; Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2010-01-16markup_oops.pl: fix error with x86Hui Zhu
When I try to use markup_oops.pl in x86, I always get: cat 1 | perl markup_oops.pl ./vmlinux objdump: --start-address: bad number: NaN No matching code found This is because in line: if ($line =~ /EIP is at ([a-zA-Z0-9\_]+)\+0x([0-9a-f]+)\/[a-f0-9]/) { $function = $1; $func_offset = $2; } $func_offset will get a number like "0x2" But in follow code: my $decodestart = Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$target") - Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$func_offset"); It add other ox to ox2. Then this value will be set to NaN. So I made a small patch to fix it.

2010-01-13kbuild: really fix bzImage build with non-bash shJonathan Nieder
In an x86 build with CONFIG_KERNEL_LZMA enabled and dash as sh, arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin.lzma ends with '\xf0\x7d\x39\x00' (16 bytes) instead of the 4 bytes intended and the resulting vmlinuz fails to boot. This improves on the previous behavior, in which the file contained the characters '-ne ' as well, but not by much. Previous commits replaced "echo -ne" first with "/bin/echo -ne", then "printf" in the hope of improving portability, but none of these commands is guaranteed to support hexadecimal escapes on POSIX systems. So use the shell to convert from hexadecimal to octal. With this change, an LZMA-compressed kernel built with dash as sh boots correctly again.

2010-01-11lib: add support for LZO-compressed kernelsAlbin Tonnerre
This patch series adds generic support for creating and extracting LZO-compressed kernel images, as well as support for using such images on the x86 and ARM architectures, and support for creating and using LZO-compressed initrd and initramfs images. Russell King said: : Testing on a Cortex A9 model: : - lzo decompressor is 65% of the time gzip takes to decompress a kernel : - lzo kernel is 9% larger than a gzip kernel : : which I'm happy to say confirms your figures when comparing the two. : : However, when comparing your new gzip code to the old gzip code: : - new is 99% of the size of the old code : - new takes 42% of the time to decompress than the old code : : What this means is that for a proper comparison, the results get even better: : - lzo is 7.5% larger than the old gzip'd kernel image : - lzo takes 28% of the time that the old gzip code took : : So the expense seems definitely worth the effort. The only reason I : can think of ever using gzip would be if you needed the additional : compression (eg, because you have limited flash to store the image.) : : I would argue that the default for ARM should therefore be LZO. This patch: The lzo compressor is worse than gzip at compression, but faster at extraction. Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on: Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo gzip 1.61Mo 0.72s lzo 1.75Mo 0.48s So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's much faster to extract, at least in that case. This part contains: - Makefile routine to support lzo compression - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in compressed kernels - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here - config dialog for kernel compression [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Tested-by: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> Acked-by: "H.
