2010-04-06x86: Add optimized popcnt variantsBorislav Petkov
Add support for the hardware version of the Hamming weight function, popcnt, present in CPUs which advertize it under CPUID, Function 0x0000_0001_ECX[23]. On CPUs which don't support it, we fallback to the default lib/hweight.c sw versions. A synthetic benchmark comparing popcnt with __sw_hweight64 showed almost a 3x speedup on a F10h machine.

2010-03-12scripts/kernel-doc: fix empty function description sectionRandy Dunlap
scripts/kernel-doc mishandles a function that has a multi-line function short description and no function parameters. The observed problem was from drivers/scsi/scsi_netlink.c: /** * scsi_netlink_init - Called by SCSI subsystem to intialize * the SCSI transport netlink interface * **/ kernel-doc treated the " * " line as a Description: section with only a newline character in the Description contents. This caused output_highlight() to complain: "output_highlight got called with no args?", plus produce a perl call stack backtrace. The fix is just to ignore Description sections if they only contain "\n".

2010-03-06checkpatch.pl: add union and struct to the exceptions listStefani Seibold
Here is a small code snippet, which will be complained about by checkpatch.pl: #define __STRUCT_KFIFO_COMMON(recsize, ptrtype) \ union { \ struct { \ unsigned int in; \ unsigned int out; \ }; \ char rectype[recsize]; \ ptrtype *ptr; \ const ptrtype *ptr_const; \ }; This construct is legal and safe, so checkpatch.pl should accept this. It should be also true for struct defined in a macro. Add the `struct' and `union' keywords to the exceptions list of the checkpatch.pl script, to prevent error message "Macros with multiple statements should be enclosed in a do - while loop". Otherwise it is not possible to build a struct or union with a macro.

2010-03-06scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --file-emails, find embedded email addressesJoe Perches
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.

2010-02-26kernel-doc: track line numbers for each file separatelyIlya Dryomov
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.

2010-02-02kconfig: Add LSMOD=file to override the lsmod for localmodconfigSteven Rostedt
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).

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]/)".

2010-02-02get_maintainer.pl: teach git log to use --no-colorRichard Kennedy
When git has been set to always use color in .gitconfig then I get the warning message Bad divisor in main::vcs_assign: 0 This is caused by vcs_file_signoffs not matching any commits due to the pattern not understand the colour codes. Fix this by telling git log to never use colour.

2010-02-02kconfig: Look in both /bin and /sbin for lsmod in streamline_config.plSteven Rostedt
Distributions now have lsmod in /bin instead of /sbin. But to handle both cases, we look for it in /sbin /bin /usr/bin and /usr/sbin. If lsmod is not found in any of those paths, it defaults to use just lsmod and hopes that it lies in the path of the user.

2010-01-17modpost: fix segfault in sym_is() with prefixed archesMike Frysinger
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'; Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2010-01-16markup_oops.pl: fix error with x86Hui Zhu
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.

2010-01-13kbuild: really fix bzImage build with non-bash shJonathan Nieder
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.

Let the arch argument be overruled by bits. Otherwise, building of external modules against a i386 target on a x86-64 host (and likely vice versa as well) fails unless ARCH=i386 is explicitly passed to make.
