3c840c18bc scripts/get_maintainer.pl: fix possible infinite loop
If MAINTAINERS section entries are misformatted, it was possible to have
an infinite loop.

Correct the defect by always moving the index to the end of section + 1

Also, exit check for exclude as soon as possible.

22dd5b0cba get_maintainer: fix perlcritic warnings
perlcritic is a standard checker for Perl Best Practices.  This patch
fixes most of the warnings in the get_maintainer script.  If kernel
programmers are going to have checkpatch they should write clean scripts
as well...

03372dbbe6 scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --file-emails, find embedded email addresses
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. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> (maintainer:NETWORKING [GENERAL])
Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> (in file)
Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> (in file)
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)
netdev@vger.kernel.org (open list:NETWORKING [GENERAL])

The number of email addresses in the file in not limited.  Neither is the
number of returned email addresses.

1c32fd0c5a kernel-doc: drop the -filelist option, it doesn't work
I also found the -filelist option, but apparently the implementation
is broken, and it was broken from the very first git commit.
For the -filelist option I suggest the removal (I wasn't able to find
any users of it, moreover it's not even listed in the
usage() output, so presumably nobody knows about it).

a9e7314b79 kernel-doc: track line numbers for each file separately
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.

615f0833aa kconfig: Add LSMOD=file to override the lsmod for localmodconfig
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).

ef2b9b0545 markup_oops.pl: fix $func_offset error with x86_64
When I use markup_oops.pl parse a x8664 oops, I got:

objdump: --start-address: bad number: NaN
No matching code found
This is because:
main::(./m.pl:228):	open(FILE, "objdump -dS --adjust-vma=$vmaoffset --start-address=$decodestart --stop-address=$decodestop $filename |") || die "Cannot start objdump";
  DB<3> p $decodestart
NaN

This NaN is from:
main::(./m.pl:176):	my $decodestart = Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$target") - Math::BigInt->from_hex("0x$func_offset");
  DB<2> p $func_offset
0x175

There is already a "0x" in $func_offset, another 0x makes it a NaN.

The $func_offset is from line:

	if ($line =~ /RIP: 0010:\[\<[0-9a-f]+\>\]  \[\<[0-9a-f]+\>\] ([a-zA-Z0-9\_]+)\+(0x[0-9a-f]+)\/0x[a-f0-9]/) {
		$function = $1;
		$func_offset = $2;
	}

I make a patch to change "(0x[0-9a-f]+)\/0x[a-f0-9]/)" to "0x([0-9a-f]+)\/0x[a-f0-9]/)".

If lsmod is not found in any of those paths, it defaults to use

3a5dd791ab modpost: fix segfault in sym_is() with prefixed arches
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';

1f8cdae439 markup_oops.pl: fix error with x86
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.

1373411ae4 kbuild: really fix bzImage build with non-bash sh
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.

7dd65feb6c lib: add support for LZO-compressed kernels
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

13d7e93856 kconfig: Check for if conditions in Kconfig for localmodconfig
The streamline_config.pl misses the if conditions for checking
dependencies. For Kconfigs with the following construct:

 if MEDIA_SUPPORT

 config VIDEO_DEV

 [...]

If VIDEO_DEV was enabled, the script will miss the fact that MEDIA_SUPPORT
is also needed.

This patch changes streamline_config.pl to include if conditions into
the dependencies of configs.

538f19526e MIPS: Tracing: Add dynamic function tracer support
With dynamic function tracer, by default, _mcount is defined as an
"empty" function, it returns directly without any more action . When
enabling it in user-space, it will jump to a real tracing
function(ftrace_caller), and do the real job for us.

Differ from the static function tracer, dynamic function tracer provides
two functions ftrace_make_call()/ftrace_make_nop() to enable/disable the
tracing of some indicated kernel functions(set_ftrace_filter).

In the -v4 version, the implementation of this support is basically the same as
X86 version does: _mcount is implemented as an empty function and ftrace_caller
is implemented as a real tracing function respectively.

But in this version, to support module tracing with the help of
-mlong-calls in arch/mips/Makefile:

MODFLAGS += -mlong-calls.

The stuff becomes a little more complex. We need to cope with two
different type of calling to _mcount.

For the kernel part, the calling to _mcount(result of "objdump -hdr
vmlinux"). is like this:

	108:   03e0082d        move    at,ra
	10c:   0c000000        jal     0 <fpcsr_pending>
                        10c: R_MIPS_26  _mcount
                        10c: R_MIPS_NONE        *ABS*
                        10c: R_MIPS_NONE        *ABS*
	110:   00020021        nop

For the module with -mlong-calls, it looks like this:

	c:	3c030000 	lui	v1,0x0
			c: R_MIPS_HI16	_mcount
			c: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
			c: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
	10:	64630000 	daddiu	v1,v1,0
			10: R_MIPS_LO16	_mcount
			10: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
			10: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
	14:	03e0082d 	move	at,ra
	18:	0060f809 	jalr	v1

In the kernel version, there is only one "_mcount" string for every
kernel function, so, we just need to match this one in mcount_regex of
scripts/recordmcount.pl, but in the module version, we need to choose
one of the two to match. Herein, I choose the first one with
"R_MIPS_HI16 _mcount".

and In the kernel verion, without module tracing support, we just need
to replace "jal _mcount" by "jal ftrace_caller" to do real tracing, and
filter the tracing of some kernel functions via replacing it by a nop
instruction.

but as we have described before, the instruction "jal ftrace_caller" only left
32bit length for the address of ftrace_caller, it will fail when calling from
the module space. so, herein, we must replace something else.

the basic idea is loading the address of ftrace_caller to v1 via changing these
two instructions:

	lui	v1,0x0
	addiu	v1,v1,0

If we want to enable the tracing, we need to replace the above instructions to:

	lui	v1, HI_16BIT_ftrace_caller
	addiu	v1, v1, LOW_16BIT_ftrace_caller

If we want to stop the tracing of the indicated kernel functions, we
just need to replace the "jalr v1" to a nop instruction. but we need to
replace two instructions and encode the above two instructions
oursevles.

Is there a simpler solution? Yes! Here it is, in this version, we put _mcount
and ftrace_caller together, which means the address of _mcount and
ftrace_caller is the same:

_mcount:
ftrace_caller:
	j	ftrace_stub
	 nop

	...(do real tracing here)...

ftrace_stub:
	jr	ra
	 move	ra, at

By default, the kernel functions call _mcount, and then jump to ftrace_stub and
return. and when we want to do real tracing, we just need to remove that "j
ftrace_stub", and it will run through the two "nop" instructions and then do
the real tracing job.

what about filtering job? we just need to do this:

	 lui v1, hi_16bit_of_mcount        <--> b 1f (0x10000004)
	 addiu v1, v1, low_16bit_of_mcount
	 move at, ra
	 jalr v1
	 nop
	 				     1f: (rec->ip + 12)

In linux-mips64, there will be some local symbols, whose name are
prefixed by $L, which need to be filtered. thanks goes to Steven for
writing the mips64-specific function_regex.

In a conclusion, with RISC, things becomes easier with such a "stupid"
trick, RISC is something like K.I.S.S, and also, there are lots of
"simple" tricks in the whole ftrace support, thanks goes to Steven and
the other folks for providing such a wonderful tracing framework!

Restructure a bit for multiple version control systems support.

Use a hash for each supported VCS that contains the commands
and patterns used to find commits, logs, and signers.

--git command line options are still used for hg except for
--git-since.  Use --hg-since instead.

The number of commits can differ for git and hg, so --rolestats
might be different.

Style changes: Use common push style push(@foo...), simplify a return

9e1b9b8072 module: make MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX into a CONFIG option
The next commit will require the use of MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX in
.tmp_exports-asm.S.  Currently it is mixed in with C structure
definitions in "asm/module.h".  Move the definition of this arch option
into Kconfig, so it can be easily accessed by any code.

This also lets modpost.c use the same definition.  Previously modpost
relied on a hardcoded list of architectures in mk_elfconfig.c.

A build test for blackfin, one of the two MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX archs,
showed the generated code was unchanged.  vmlinux was identical save
for build ids, and an apparently randomized suffix on a single "__key"
symbol in the kallsyms data).

To make it easier for module-init-tools and scripts like mkinitrd to
distinguish builtin and missing modules, install a modules.builtin file
listing all builtin modules. This is done by generating an additional
config file (tristate.conf) with tristate options set to uppercase 'Y'
or 'M'. If we source that config file, the builtin modules appear in
obj-Y.

6299fee7b8 genksyms: properly consider EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL{,_GPL}()
Despite being unused these should also get a CRC calculated.
Primarily I view this as a consistency thing.  But I also think this is
one of the reasons why __crc_* need to be weak (which I think should be
avoided, and hence we should have the goal to eliminate this so that
failure to calculate a proper CRC for a symbol causes the build to fail).

Cscope doesn't hadle relative paths when cscope.out is not in $PWD. Use
absolute paths when generating cscope.files, which seems to be the

drawback is that the database needs to be regenerated if the source

32197c7ffb kbuild: create include/generated in silentoldconfig
The toplevel Makefile creates the directory if it runs silentoldconfig
automatically, but if run manually, it fails:

  $ make mrproper
  $ make defconfig && make silentoldconfig
  *** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig'
  #
  # configuration written to .config
  #
  scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig

  *** Error during update of the kernel configuration.
  ...

Move the mkdir command to the silentoldconfig target to make it work.

db1d18657c scripts/package: deb-pkg: use fakeroot if available
Running "make deb-pkg" requires setting KBUILD_PKG_ROOTCMD or
becoming root oneself or it errors out.  Unless already running
as root or KBUILD_PKG_ROOTCMD is already set, use fakeroot as a
good default.

With this patch applied, you can run "make oldconfig deb-pkg" as
an ordinary user to build a binary package for an updated kernel
tree and it should just work.

fakeroot is too zealous by default in treating files as owned by
root.  Its wrapped stat() sets st_uid and st_gid to 0 for all
files, which causes Git to go on a wild goose chase if
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO is set, checking if any file's content
has changed along with its stat information.  Avoid this by
telling fakeroot to use the actual owner and group for
preexisting files, by passing it the -u option.

05ba4488a5 scripts/package: add KBUILD_PKG_ROOTCMD variable
Let the deb-pkg target acquire (fake) root privileges before
running commands that need them.  Without such privileges,
deb-pkg errors out because chown fails.

The new KBUILD_PKG_ROOTCMD variable, if defined, is used as a
command to run other commands with possibly fake elevated
privileges.  Since this is not needed for the tar-pkg and rpm-pkg
targets, it is only used by deb-pkg.  If it is not defined, the
behavior is as before, and the user will have to rerun make as
root.

In other words, as a shortcut, instead of running 'make oldconfig &&
make && fakeroot -u make deb-pkg', one can use the single command
'make oldconfig deb-pkg KBUILD_PKG_ROOTCMD="fakeroot -u"'.

91d161857c scripts/package: tar-pkg: use tar --owner=root
Use the --owner= and --group= options to make sure the entries in
the built tar file are owned by root.  Without this change, a
careless sysadmin using the tar-pkg target can easily end up
installing a kernel that is writable by the unprivileged user
account used to build the kernel.

Test that these options are understood before using them so that
non-GNU versions of tar can still be used if the operator is
appropriately cautious.
