2008-10-13Automatic MODULE_ALIAS() for DMI match tables.David Woodhouse
This makes modpost handle MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dmi, xxxx). I had to change the string pointers in the match table to char arrays, and picked a size of 79 bytes almost at random -- do we need to make it bigger than that? I was a bit concerned about the 'bloat' this introduces into the match tables, but they should all be __initdata so it shouldn't matter too much. (Actually, modpost does go through the relocations and look at most of them; it wouldn't be impossible to make it handle string pointers -- but doesn't seem to be worth the effort, since they're __initdata).

2008-10-12fastboot: Fix bootgraph.pl initcall name regexpArnaud Patard

2008-10-12fastboot: fix issues and improve output of bootgraph.plArjan van de Ven
David Sanders reported some issues with bootgraph.pl's display of his sytems bootup; this commit fixes these by scaling the graph not from 0 - end time but from the first initcall to the end time; the minimum display size etc also now need to scale with this, as does the axis display.

2008-10-12Add a script to visualize the kernel boot process / timeArjan van de Ven
When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize what is going on at which time. In addition, with some of the initializing going asynchronous soon, it's valuable to track/print which worker thread is executing the initialization. This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall (so that the script can work out the parallelism).

2008-08-27selinux: add support for installing a dummy policy (v2)Serge E. Hallyn
In August 2006 I posted a patch generating a minimal SELinux policy. This week, David P. Quigley posted an updated version of that as a patch against the kernel. It also had nice logic for auto-installing the policy. Following is David's original patch intro (preserved especially bc it has stats on the generated policies): se interested in the changes there were only two significant changes. The first is that the iteration through the list of classes used NULL as a sentinel value. The problem with this is that the class_to_string array actually has NULL entries in its table as place holders for the user space object classes. The second change was that it would seem at some point the initial sids table was NULL terminated. This is no longer the case so that iteration has to be done on array length instead of looking for NULL. Some statistics on the policy that it generates: The policy consists of 523 lines which contain no blank lines. Of those 523 lines 453 of them are class, permission, and initial sid definitions. These lines are usually little to no concern to the policy developer since they will not be adding object classes or permissions. Of the remaining 70 lines there is one type, one role, and one user statement. The remaining lines are broken into three portions. The first group are TE allow rules which make up 29 of the remaining lines, the second is assignment of labels to the initial sids which consist of 27 lines, and file system labeling statements which are the remaining 11. In addition to the policy.conf generated there is a single file_contexts file containing two lines which labels the entire system with base_t. This policy generates a policy.23 binary that is 7920 bytes. (then a few versions later...): The new policy is 587 lines (stripped of blank lines) with 476 of those lines being the boilerplate that I mentioned last time. The remaining 111 lines have the 3 lines for type, user, and role, 70 lines for the allow rules (one for each object class including user space object classes), 27 lines to assign types to the initial sids, and 11 lines for file system labeling. The policy binary is 9194 bytes. Changelog: Aug 26: Added Documentation/SELinux.txt Aug 26: Incorporated a set of comments by Stephen Smalley: 1. auto-setup SELINUXTYPE=dummy 2. don't auto-install if selinux is enabled with non-dummy policy 3. don't re-compute policy version 4. /sbin/setfiles not /usr/sbin/setfiles Aug 22: As per JMorris comments, made sure make distclean cleans up the mdp directory. Removed a check for file_contexts which is now created in the same file as the check, making it superfluous.

2008-07-31kbuild: genksyms parser: fix the __attribute__ ruleAndreas Gruenbacher
We are having two kinds of problems with genksyms today: fake checksum changes without actual ABI changes, and changes which we would rather like to ignore (such as an additional field at the end of a structure that modules are not supposed to touch, for example). I have thought about ways to improve genksyms and compute checksums differently to avoid those problems, but in the end I don't see a fundamentally better way. So here are some genksyms patches for at least making the checksums more easily manageable, if we cannot fully fix them. In addition to the bugfixes (the first two patches), this allows genksyms to track checksum changes and report why a checksum changed (third patch), and to selectively ignore changes (fourth patch). This patch: Gcc __attribute__ definitions may occur repeatedly, e.g., static int foo __attribute__((__used__)) __attribute__((aligned (16))); The genksyms parser does not understand this, and generates a syntax error. Fix this case.

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.

2008-07-25kbuild: optimize headers_* targetsSam Ravnborg
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: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2008-07-25kbuild: only one call for include/ in make headers_*Sam Ravnborg
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>.

2008-07-25kbuild: always unifdef files in headers_install*Sam Ravnborg
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.

2008-07-25fix checkstack.pl arch detectionEric Sandeen
uname -m was leaving a newline in $arch, and not passing the tests. Also, printing the unknown arch on failure is probably helpful. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-07-25find dynamic stack allocations in checkstack.plEric Sandeen
Currently, checkstack.pl only looks for fixed subtractions from the stack pointer. However, things like this: void function(int size) { char stackbuster[size << 2]; ... are certainly worth pointing out, I think. This could perhaps be done more cleanly, and the following patch only adds "dynamic" REs for x86 and x86_64, but it works: 0x00b0 crypto_cbc_decrypt_inplace [cbc]: Dynamic (%rax) 0x00ad crypto_pcbc_decrypt_inplace [pcbc]: Dynamic (%rax) 0x02f6 crypto_pcbc_encrypt_inplace [pcbc]: Dynamic (%rax) 0x036c _crypto_xcbc_digest_setkey [xcbc]: Dynamic (%rax) ...
