make defconfig generated a lot of output then noone actually read. Use conf_set_all_new_symbols() to generate the default configuration and avoid the chatty output. A typical run now looks like this: $ make defconfig *** Default configuration is based on 'i386_defconfig' arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:13:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol SEMAPHORE_SLEEPERS arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:176:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol PREEMPT_BKL ... arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:1386:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol INSTRUMENTATION $ As an added benefit we now clearly see the warnings generated in the start of the process.

Previously when running "make oldconfig" we saw all the propmt lines from kconfig and noone actully read this. With this patch the user will only see output if there is new symbols. This will be seen as "make oldconfig" runs which does not generate any output. A typical run now looks like this: $ make oldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig $ If a new symbol is found then we restart the config process like this: $ make oldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * General setup * Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers (EXPERIMENTAL) [Y/n/?] y Local version - append to kernel release (LOCALVERSION) [] ... The bahaviour is similar to what we know when running the implicit oldconfig target "make silentoldconfig". "make silentoldconfig" are run as part of the kernel build process if the configuration has changed. Signed-off-by: -

Drop the chatty mode when we generate the all*config, randconfig configurations. Ths speeds up the process considerably and noone looked at the output anyway. This patch uses the conf_set_all_new_symbols() function just added to kconfig. Signed-off-by: -

Documentation/sparse.txt tells to use: make C=2 CHECKFLAGS="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__" However, this still doesn't enable endian checks. The correct syntax is: make C=2 CF="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__" This documentation bug was introduced by the following commit: commit 1c7bafe7 Author: Robert P. J.

Due to the addition of __attribute__((__cold__)) to a few symbols without adjusting the linker scripts, those symbols currently may end up outside the [_stext,_etext) range, as they get placed in .text.unlikely by (at least) gcc 4.3.0. This may confuse code not only outside of the kernel, symbol_put_addr()'s BUG() could also trigger. Hence we need to add .text.unlikely (and for future uses of __attribute__((__hot__)) also .text.hot) to the TEXT_TEXT() macro. Issue observed by Lukas Lipavsky. Signed-off-by:

This patch conclude the support for arch/$ARCH/include Note: The individual architectures will most likely require a few minor patches to support locating header files in arch/$ARCH/include Testing shows that it worked out-of-the-box for sparc. x86 required a few trivial changes in the arch specific Makefile and a few include paths had to be adjusted.

Adjust the asm symlink support so we do not create the symlink unless really needed. We check the precense of include/asm-$ARCH by checking for the system.h file. We may end up with a stale directory so it is not enough to check if the directory is present. Signed-off-by: -

We see some header files that are selected dependent on the actual architecture so force a reinstallation of all header files when the arch changes. This slows down "make headers_check_all" but then we better reflect reality. Signed-off-by: -

Move the core functionality of headers_install and headers_check to two small perl scripts. The makefile is adapted to use the perl scrip and changed to operate on all files in a directory. So if one file is changed then all files in the directory is processed. perl were chosen for the helper scripts because this is pure text processing which perl is good at and especially the headers_check.pl script are expected to see changes / new checks implmented. The speed is ~300% faster on this box. And the output generated to the screen is now down to two lines per directory (one for install, one for check) so it is easier to scroll back after a kernel build. The perl scripts has been brought to sanity by patient feedback from: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: -

Move it to the top-level file to decide if we install/check the generic headers or the arch specific headers. This revealed a long standing bug where "make headers_check_all" relied on the files in asm/ for the current architecture. So make headers_check_all is now broken by this commit. In addition: o add a simpler way to detect if an arch support exporting header files. o add 'set -e;' so we error out early if make headers_check_all fails. o add sparc64 and cris to arch we do not process in make headers_*_all because: sparc64 - use sparc to export headers cris - is know seriously broken Includes suggestions from: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>.

unifdef utility is fast enough to warrant that we always run the scripts through unifdef. This patch runs all headers listed with header-y and unifdef-y through unifdef. Next step is to drop unifdef-y in all Kbuild files and that can now be done in smaller steps. Signed-off-by: -

This module harvests more than just memory errors, it also harvests various bus and dma errors that the Chipset detects. Previously, it would report all such errors, which would cause output to be TOO loud. This patches therefore adds a parameter which is used to turn off NON-MEMORY error reports by default. Or the reporting can be enabled via the parameter Also did code style cleanup: less than 80 characters per line rule Signed-off-by:

The channel DIMM label does not seem to be used much in the edac code. However, where it is used (in the core code), it is assumed to not have a newline embedded. This leaves the sysfs file newline free which looks funny when cat'ing it. Here we just add the trailing newline to the sysfs chX_dimm_label output... [Doug Thompson note: the DIMM label is one of the primary uses of EDAC. User space daemon scripts, edac-utils@sourceforge, populate the DIMM label fields, via /sys/devices/system/edac attributes, with the silk screen labels of the motherboard in use. dmidecode access BIOS tables, but BIOS tables are well known to be incorrect and useless in these respects. edac-utils will strip off any newlines before its use of the output, when displaying DIMM slot silk screen labels.

When updating the edac_mc_poll_msec module parameter from the sysfs /sys/module/edac_core/parameters/edac_mc_poll_msec file, we don't update the workq timers. So that, if we move from a big poll time to a small one, the small one won't take effect until the big one has timed out. Here we provide a new module parameter set method to call out to the update routine. This brings the /sys/module/edac_core/parameters functionality up to that provided by the /sys/drivers/system/edac/mc sysfs module parameter files so that we can remove them or at least link to the /sys/module files...

Static kobjects are not supported in linux kernel. Convert the edac_pci_top_main_kobj from static to dynamic. This avoids the double free of the edac_pci_top_main_kobj.name that we see on module reload of the e752x edac driver (and probably others as well). In addition Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> has pointed out that this code may be cleaned up significantly. I will look at that as a follow-on patch, for now, I just want the minimum fix to get this double-free oops bug squashed... Many thanks to Greg KH for his patience in showing me what the Documentation/kobject.txt already said (oops)... Signed-off-by:

Some code cleanliness issues found by Andrew Morton (thanks!) which should not affect functionality, but which should help make the code more maintainable. In particular, we now: * convert all #define's w/ a parameter to static inlines * use 1UL rather than 1ULL when calculating an unsigned long * use pci_disable_device The resulting code is tested and seems to work fine...
