2020-08-24lib: Revert use of fallthrough pseudo-keyword in lib/Gustavo A. R. Silva
The following build error for powerpc64 was reported by Nathan Chancellor: "$ scripts/config --file arch/powerpc/configs/powernv_defconfig -e KERNEL_XZ $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64le-linux- distclean powernv_defconfig zImage ... In file included from arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/decompress_unxz.c:234, from arch/powerpc/boot/decompress.c:38: arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/xz/xz_dec_stream.c: In function 'dec_main': arch/powerpc/boot/../../../lib/xz/xz_dec_stream.c:586:4: error: 'fallthrough' undeclared (first use in this function) 586 | fallthrough; | ^~~~~~~~~~~ This will end up affecting distribution configurations such as Debian and OpenSUSE according to my testing. I am not sure what the solution is, the PowerPC wrapper does not set -D__KERNEL__ so I am not sure that compiler_attributes.h can be safely included." In order to avoid these sort of problems, it seems that the best solution is to use /* fall through */ comments instead of the fallthrough pseudo-keyword macro in lib/, for now.

2020-08-23treewide: Use fallthrough pseudo-keywordGustavo A. R. Silva
Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary fall-through markings when it is the case.

2017-02-24lib: add module support to glob testsGeert Uytterhoeven
Extract the glob test code into its own source file, to allow to compile it either to a loadable module, or builtin into the kernel.

2014-08-06lib/glob.c: add CONFIG_GLOB_SELFTESTGeorge Spelvin
This was useful during development, and is retained for future regression testing. GCC appears to have no way to place string literals in a particular section; adding __initconst to a char pointer leaves the string itself in the default string section, where it will not be thrown away after module load. Thus all string constants are kept in explicitly declared and named arrays. Sorry this makes printk a bit harder to read. At least the tests are more compact.

2014-08-06lib: add lib/glob.cGeorge Spelvin
This is a helper function from drivers/ata/libata_core.c, where it is used to blacklist particular device models. It's being moved to lib/ so other drivers may use it for the same purpose. This implementation in non-recursive, so is safe for the kernel stack.
