480f439c3d kallsyms: Revert back to 128 max symbol length
This reverts commits
f3462aa (Kbuild: Handle longer symbols in kallsyms.c) and
eea0e9c (kbuild: Increase kallsyms max symbol length)
except for the added overflow check. The reason is a regression caused
by increasing the buffer:

e946c43a11 kernel-doc: improve "no structured comments found" error
When using '!Ffile function' in a docbook template, and the function no
longer exists, you get a "no structured comments found" error from the
kernel-doc processing script.  It's useful to know which functions it was
looking for, so print them out in this case.  Also do the same for '!Pfile
doc-section'

The same error also happens when using '!Efile' when some exported
functions aren't documented (in the same file.) There's a very large
number of such functions though, so don't print the message in this case
-- right now it would give ~850 messages.

9ba4bcb645 initramfs: read CONFIG_RD_ variables for initramfs compression
When expert configuration option(CONFIG_EXPERT) is enabled, menuconfig
offers a choice of compression algorithm to compress initial ramfs image;
This choice is stored into CONFIG_RD_* variables.  But usr/Makefile uses
earlier INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_* macros to build initial ramfs file.  Since
none of them is defined, resulting 'initramfs_data.cpio' file remains
un-compressed.

This patch updates the Makefile to use CONFIG_RD_* variables and adds
support for LZ4 compression algorithm.  Also updates the
'gen_initramfs_list.sh' script to check whether a selected compression
command is accessible or not.  And fall-back to default gzip(1)
compression when it is not.

823b794ce1 checkpatch: add check for sscanf without return use
Naked use sscanf can be troublesome because the pointed to variables may
not have been set.

Add a warning when the sscanf return value is not used.

For now, do not add __must_check to the sscanf prototype because that will

c1fd7bb996 checkpatch: make the memory barrier test noisier
Peter Zijlstra prefers that comments be required near uses of memory
barriers.

Change the message level for memory barrier uses from a --strict test only
to a normal WARN so it's always emitted.

This might produce false positives around insertions of memory barriers
when a comment is outside the patch context block.

And checkpatch is still stupid, it only looks for existence of any
comment, not at the comment content.

Extend the CamelCase words found to include structure members.

In https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/3/318 Sarah Sharp (mostly) wrote:

"In general, if checkpatch.pl complains about a variable a patch
introduces that's CamelCase, you should pay attention to it.  Otherwise,
[] ignore it."

So, if checking a patch, scan the original patched file if it's available
and add any preexisting CamelCase types so reuses do not generate
CamelCase messages.

That also means Andrew's not so cruelly spurned anymore.

57540f1dea kconfig: adjust warning message for conflicting types
Each symbol must have exactly one type assigned. However, if a symbol happens
to have two different types assigned at runtime, a warning is printed and the
first type is preserved while the second type is being ignored.

The warning message says

type of <symbol name> redefined from <first type> to <second type>

which may be misleading as it may create the impression that the second type
replaces the first type.

This patch clarifies this by changing the warning to

ignoring type redefinition of <symbol name> from <first type> to <second type>

eed380f3f5 modpost: Optionally ignore secondary errors seen if a single module build fails
Commit ea4054a23 (modpost: handle huge numbers of modules) added
support for building a large number of modules.

Unfortunately, the commit changed the semantics of the makefile: Instead of
passing only existing object files to modpost, make now passes all expected
object files. If make was started with option -i, this results in a modpost
error if a single file failed to build.

Example with the current btrfs build falure on m68k:

fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory
make[1]: [__modpost] Error 1 (ignored)

This error is followed by lots of errors such as:

m68k-linux-gcc: error: arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.c: No such file or directory
m68k-linux-gcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
make[1]: [arch/m68k/emu/nfcon.mod.o] Error 1 (ignored)

This doesn't matter much for normal builds, but it is annoying for builds
started with "make -i" due to the large number of secondary errors.
Those errors unnececessarily clog any error log and make it difficult
to find the real errors in the build.

Fix the problem by adding a new parameter '-n' to modpost. If this parameter
is specified, modpost reports but ignores missing object files.

With this patch, error output from above problem is (with make -i):

m68k-linux-ld: cannot find fs/btrfs/ioctl.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: [fs/btrfs/btrfs.o] Error 1 (ignored)
...
fs/btrfs/btrfs.o: No such file or directory (ignored)

8716de383b checkpatch: add test for positional misuse of section specifiers like __initdata
As discussed recently on the arm [1] and lm-sensors [2] lists, it is
possible to use section markers on variables in a way which gcc doesn't
understand (or at least not the way the developer intended):

static struct __initdata samsung_pll_clock exynos4_plls[nr_plls] = {

does NOT put exynos4_plls in the .initdata section.  The __initdata marker
can be virtually anywhere on the line, EXCEPT right after "struct".  The
preferred location is before the "=" sign if there is one, or before the
trailing ";" otherwise.

[1] http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/258149
[2] http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2013-August/039836.html

So, update checkpatch to find these misuses and report an error when it's
immediately after struct or union, and a warning when it's otherwise not
immediately before the ; or =.

A similar patch was suggested by Andi Kleen

1b5539b1ff checkpatch: reduce runtime/cpu time used
There are some cases where checkpatch can take a long time to complete.
Reduce the likelihood of this long run-time by adding a new test for lines
with and without comments and eliminating checks on lines with only
comments.

This reduces the number of "ctx_statement_block" calls, and also the
number of tests of $stat, which is now undefined for these blank lines.

One test in particular, the "check for switch/default statements without a
break", could take an extremely long time to parse as it tries to skip
interleaving comments within the ctx_statement_block/$stat and that could
be done multiple times unnecessarily.

A small test case taken from cfg80211.h before this patch would take
1000's of seconds to run, now it's just a couple seconds.

d62a201f24 checkpatch: enforce sane perl version
I got a bug report from a couple of users who said checkpatch.pl was
broken for them.  It was erroring out on fairly random lines most commonly
with messages like:

	Nested quantifiers in regex; marked by <--HERE in m/(\((?:[^\(\)]++ <-- HERE |(?-1))*\))/ at ./checkpatch.pl line 340.

The bug reporter was running a version of perl 5.8 which was end-of-lifed
in 2008: http://www.cpan.org/src/.  Versions of perl this old are at
_best_ quite untested.  At worst, they are crusty and known to be
completely broken.

If folks have a system _that_ old, then we should have mercy on them and
give them a half-decent error message rather than fail with nutty error
messages.

This patch enforces that checkpatch.pl is run with perl 5.10, which was
end-of-lifed in 2009.  The new --ignore-perl-version command-line switch
will let folks override this if they want.

$Lval is a test for complete name (ie: foo->bar.Baz[1])

If any of this is CamelCase, then the current test uses the entire $Lval.
This isn't optimal because it can emit messages with foo->bar.Baz and
bar.Baz when Baz is a variable specified in an include file.

So instead, break the $Lval into words and check each word for CamelCase
uses.

e062781397 kconfig: do not allow more than one symbol to have 'option modules'
Previously, it was possible to have more than one symbol with the
'option modules' attached to them, although only the last one would
in fact control tristates.

Since this does not make much sense, only allow at most one symbol to
control tristates.

Note: it is still possible to have more than one symbol that control
tristates, but indirectly:

    config MOD1
        bool "mod1"
        select MODULES
    config MOD2
        bool "mod2"
        select MODULES
    config MODULES
        bool
        option modules

6902dccfda kconfig: do not special-case 'MODULES' symbol
Currently, the 'MODULES' symbol is hard-coded to be the default symbol
that enables/disables tristates, if no other symbol was declared with
'option modules'.

While this used to be needed for the Linux kernel, we now have an
explicit 'option modules' attached to the 'MODULES' symbol (since
cset 11097a036), so we no longer need to special-case it in the
kconfig code.

Furthermore, kconfig is extensively used out of the Linux kernel, and
other projects may have another meaning for a symbol named 'MODULES'.

This patch changes the way we enable/disable tristates: if a symbol was
found with 'option modules' attached to it, then that symbol controls
enabling tristates. Otherwise, tristates are disabled, even if a symbol
named 'MODULES' exists.

7848ea7902 kbuild: Add MIPS specific files to generated package.
A lot of 64-bit systems supported by Linux/MIPS have boot firmware or
bootloaders that only understand 32-bit ELF files, and as such, the vmlinux.32
target exists to support these systems.  Therefore, it'd be nice if the tar-pkg
target recognised this, and included the right version when packaging up a
binary of the kernel.

This updates buildtar to support MIPS targets.  MIPS may use 'vmlinux'
or 'vmlinux.32' depending on the target system.  This uses 'vmlinux.32'
in preference to 'vmlinux' where present (although I should check which
is newer), including either file as /boot/vmlinux-${version}.

04b19b773a kconfig: silence warning when parsing auto.conf when a symbol has changed type
When a symbol changes type from tristate to bool, and was previously set to
'm', a subsequent silentoldconfig would warn about inconsistency, such as:

    include/config/auto.conf:3014:warning: symbol value 'm' invalid for
    HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE

Seen by Linus with the merge in aa8032b (sequence to reproduce by Michal):
    git checkout 1fe0135
    make mrproper
    make allmodconfig
    make silentoldconfig
    git checkout aa8032b
    make allmodconfig
    make silentoldconfig

Since HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE changed from tristate to bool in aa8032b, it was
previously set to 'm' in auto.conf by the first allmodconfig+silentoldconfig,
but then was set to 'y' by the second allmodconfig. Then the second
silentoldconfig prints the warning.

The warning in this case is a spurious warning, which happens at the time
kconfig tries to detect symbols that have changed, to touch the empty
header files in include/config used for dependency-tracking by make.

Silence the warning when we read the old auto.conf file, since it is
perfectly legit that a symbol changed type since the previous call.

83e8b90e1d scripts/config: use sed's POSIX interface
Script `config' relies on extensions of `GNU sed', and is thus not
working on all Unixes:
  - in-place edition of files (-i), which can be replaced with
    a temporary file;
  - extended-regexps (-r), which can be split into basic regexps;
  - single-line calls to `a' command, while some implementations
    require a leading newline before the parameter.

Rewrite calls to `sed' to comply with POSIX interface, and move them
to helper functions.

351b2a1fe2 checkpatch: cache last camelcase hash as .checkpatch-camelcase.<commit>
Add a file to cache the CamelCase variables found by <commit> to reduce
the time it takes to scan the include/ directory.

Filename is '.checkpatch-camelcase.<commit>' and it is created only only
if a .git directory exists.

<commit> is determined by the last non-merge commit id in the
include/ path.

Reduces checkpatch run time by ~12 cpu seconds on my little netbook.
