2020-09-05checkpatch: fix the usage of capture group ( ... )Mrinal Pandey
The usage of "capture group (...)" in the immediate condition after `&&` results in `$1` being uninitialized. This issues a warning "Use of uninitialized value $1 in regexp compilation at ./scripts/checkpatch.pl line 2638". I noticed this bug while running checkpatch on the set of commits from v5.7 to v5.8-rc1 of the kernel on the commits with a diff content in their commit message. This bug was introduced in the script by commit e518e9a59ec3 ("checkpatch: emit an error when there's a diff in a changelog"). It has been in the script since then. The author intended to store the match made by capture group in variable `$1`. This should have contained the name of the file as `[\w/]+` matched. However, this couldn't be accomplished due to usage of capture group and `$1` in the same regular expression. Fix this by placing the capture group in the condition before `&&`. Thus, `$1` can be initialized to the text that capture group matches thereby setting it to the desired and required value.

2020-08-12checkpatch: fix CONST_STRUCT when const_structs.checkpatch is missingQuentin Monnet
Checkpatch reports warnings when some specific structs are not declared as const in the code. The list of structs to consider was initially defined in the checkpatch.pl script itself, but it was later moved to an external file (scripts/const_structs.checkpatch), in commit bf1fa1dae68e ("checkpatch: externalize the structs that should be const"). This introduced two minor issues: - When file scripts/const_structs.checkpatch is not present (for example, if checkpatch is run outside of the kernel directory with the "--no-tree" option), a warning is printed to stderr to tell the user that "No structs that should be const will be found". This is fair, but the warning is printed unconditionally, even if the option "--ignore CONST_STRUCT" is passed. In the latter case, we explicitly ask checkpatch to skip this check, so no warning should be printed. - When scripts/const_structs.checkpatch is missing, or even when trying to silence the warning by adding an empty file, $const_structs is set to "", and the regex used for finding structs that should be const, "$line =~ /struct\s+($const_structs)(?!\s*\{)/)", matches all structs found in the code, thus reporting a number of false positives. Let's fix the first item by skipping scripts/const_structs.checkpatch processing if "CONST_STRUCT" checks are ignored, and the second one by skipping the test if $const_structs is not defined. Since we modify the read_words() function a little bit, update the checks for $typedefsfile/$typeOtherTypedefs as well.

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1] (or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings (e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized, either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes. In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], partially revert commit 16b7f3c89907 ("checkpatch: avoid warning about uninitialized_var()") and remove all remaining mentions of uninitialized_var().

The feature was under development for quite some time and has already found legitimate bugs. Unfortunately it comes with a limitation, which was only understood late in the development cycle: It requires an up to date CLANG-11 compiler CLANG-11 is not yet released (scheduled for June), but it's the only compiler today which handles the kernel requirements and especially the annotations of functions to exclude them from KCSAN instrumentation correctly. These annotations really need to work so that low level entry code and especially int3 text poke handling can be completely isolated. A detailed discussion of the requirements and compiler issues can be found here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CANpmjNMTsY_8241bS7=XAfqvZHFLrVEkv_uM4aDUWE_kh3Rvbw@mail.gmail.com/ We came to the conclusion that trying to work around compiler limitations and bugs again would end up in a major trainwreck, so requiring a working compiler seemed to be the best choice. For Continous Integration purposes the compiler restriction is manageable and that's where most xxSAN reports come from. For a change this limitation might make GCC people actually look at their bugs. Some issues with CSAN in GCC are 7 years old and one has been 'fixed' 3 years ago with a half baken solution which 'solved' the reported issue but not the underlying problem. The KCSAN developers also ponder to use a GCC plugin to become independent, but that's not something which will show up in a few days.

2020-06-04checkpatch: use patch subject when reading from stdinGeert Uytterhoeven
While "git am" can apply an mbox file containing multiple patches (e.g. as created by b4[1], or a patch bundle downloaded from patchwork), checkpatch does not have proper support for that. When operating on an mbox, checkpatch will merge all detected tags, and complain falsely about duplicates: WARNING: Duplicate signature As modifying checkpatch to reset state in between each patch is a lot of work, a simple solution is splitting the mbox into individual patches, and invoking checkpatch for each of them. Fortunately checkpatch can read a patch from stdin, so the classic "formail" tool can be used to split the mbox, and pipe all individual patches to checkpatch: formail -s scripts/checkpatch.pl < my-mbox However, when reading a patch file from standard input, checkpatch calls it "Your patch", and reports its state as: Your patch has style problems, please review. or: Your patch has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission. Hence it can be difficult to identify which patches need to be reviewed and improved. Fix this by replacing "Your patch" by (the first line of) the email subject, if present. Note that "git mailsplit" can also be used to split an mbox, but it will create individual files for each patch, thus requiring cleanup afterwards. Formail does not have this disadvantage.

2020-04-07checkpatch: add command-line option for TAB sizeAntonio Borneo
Linux kernel coding style requires a size of 8 characters for both TAB and indentation, and such value is embedded as magic value allover the checkpatch script. This makes hard to reuse the script by other projects with different requirements in their coding style (e.g. OpenOCD [1] requires TAB size of 4 characters [2]). Replace the magic value 8 with a variable. Add a command-line option "--tab-size" to let the user select a TAB size value other than 8.

2020-04-07checkpatch: fix multiple const * typesAntonio Borneo
Commit 1574a29f8e76 ("checkpatch: allow multiple const * types") claims to support repetition of pattern "const *", but it actually allows only one extra instance. Check the following lines int a(char const * const x[]); int b(char const * const *x); int c(char const * const * const x[]); int d(char const * const * const *x); with command ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --show-types -f filename to find that only the first line passes the test, while a warning is triggered by the other 3 lines: WARNING:FUNCTION_ARGUMENTS: function definition argument 'char const * const' should also have an identifier name The reason is that the pattern match halts at the second asterisk in the line, thus the remaining text starting with asterisk fails to match a valid name for a variable. Fixed by replacing "?" (Match 1 or 0 times) with "{0,4}" (Match no more than 4 times) in the regular expression. Fix also the similar test for types in unusual order.

2020-04-07checkpatch: support "base-commit:" formatJohn Hubbard
In order to support the get-lore-mbox.py tool described in [1], I ran: git format-patch --base=<commit> --cover-letter <revrange> ... which generated a "base-commit: <commit-hash>" tag at the end of the cover letter. However, checkpatch.pl generated an error upon encounting "base-commit:" in the cover letter: "ERROR: Please use git commit description style..." ... because it found the "commit" keyword, and failed to recognize that it was part of the "base-commit" phrase, and as such, should not be subjected to the same commit description style rules. Update checkpatch.pl to include a special case for "base-commit:" (at the start of the line, possibly with some leading whitespace) so that that tag no longer generates a checkpatch error.

2019-10-11lib/vsprintf: Add %pfw conversion specifier for printing fwnode namesSakari Ailus
Add support for %pfw conversion specifier (with "f" and "P" modifiers) to support printing full path of the node, including its name ("f") and only the node's name ("P") in the printk family of functions. The two flags have equivalent functionality to existing %pOF with the same two modifiers ("f" and "P") on OF based systems. The ability to do the same on ACPI based systems is added by this patch. On ACPI based systems the resulting strings look like \_SB.PCI0.CIO2.port@1.endpoint@0 where the nodes are separated by a dot (".") and the first three are ACPI device nodes and the latter two ACPI data nodes.
