2014-09-10checkpatch: allow commit descriptions on separate line from commit idJoe Perches1-1/+4
The general form for commit id and description is 'Commit <12+hexdigits> ("commit description/subject line")' but commit logs often have relatively long commit ids and the commit description emds on the next line like: Some explanation as to why commit <12+hexdigits> ("commit foo description/subject line") is improved. Allow this form.

2014-08-29checkpatch: relax check for length of git commit IDsJoe Perches1-2/+2
Checkpatch currently warns if a git commit ID (in the changelog, usually) is less than 12 characters or more than 16. The "more than 16" is excessive. Change the check so we accept IDs from 12 to 40 chars in length.

2014-08-09PM / tools: analyze_suspend.py: update to v3.0Todd E Brandt1-836/+2981
Update of analyze_suspend.py to v3.0 New features include back-2-back suspend testing, device filters to reduce the html size, the inclusion of device_prepare and device_complete callbacks, a usb topography list, and the ability to control USB device autosuspend. UI upgrades include a device detail window and mini-timeline, the addition of a suspend_prepare and resume_complete phase to the timeline which includes the associated device callbacks, automatic highlight of related callbacks, and general color and name changes for better reability. The new version relies on two trace point patches that are already in the kernel: enable_trace_events_suspend_resume.patch enable_trace_events_device_pm_callback.patch It has legacy support for older kernels without these trace events, but when available the tool processes the ftrace output alone (dmesg has been deprecated as a tool input, and is only gathered for convenience).

2014-08-08bin2c: move bin2c in scripts/basicVivek Goyal5-6/+5
This patch series does not do kernel signature verification yet. I plan to post another patch series for that. Now distributions are already signing PE/COFF bzImage with PKCS7 signature I plan to parse and verify those signatures. Primary goal of this patchset is to prepare groundwork so that kernel image can be signed and signatures be verified during kexec load. This should help with two things. - It should allow kexec/kdump on secureboot enabled machines. - In general it can help even without secureboot. By being able to verify kernel image signature in kexec, it should help with avoiding module signing restrictions. Matthew Garret showed how to boot into a custom kernel, modify first kernel's memory and then jump back to old kernel and bypass any policy one wants to. This patch (of 15): Kexec wants to use bin2c and it wants to use it really early in the build process. See arch/x86/purgatory/ code in later patches. So move bin2c in scripts/basic so that it can be built very early and be usable by arch/x86/purgatory/ Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Cc: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: H.

2014-08-07kbuild: Fix handling of backslashes in *.cmd filesMichal Marek1-6/+8
Commit c353acba ("kbuild: make: fix if_changed when command contains backslashes") attempted to handle backslashes in *.cmd files, but it only handled double backslashes for some reason. Changing make-cmd to also handle single backslashes fixes rebuilds with dash, but it breaks bash again. The reason is that the two shells disagree about the interpretation of backslash sequences in the echo builtin. The way out of this is to print the command with printf '%s\n'. While at it, document what the individual parts of make-cmd do and why.

2014-08-06checkpatch: add test for native c90 types in unusual orderJoe Perches1-0/+44
c90 section "6.7.2 Type Specifiers" says: "type specifiers may occur in any order" That means that: short int is the same as int short unsigned short int is the same as int unsigned short etc... checkpatch currently parses only a subset of these allowed types. For instance: "unsigned short" and "signed short" are found by checkpatch as a specific type, but none of the or "int short" or "int signed short" variants are found. Add another table for the "kernel style misordered" variants. Add this misordered table to the findable types. Warn when the misordered style is used. This improves the "Missing a blank line after declarations" test as it depends on the correct parsing of the $Declare variable which looks for "$Type $Ident;" (ie: declarations like "int foo;").

2014-08-06checkpatch: emit fewer kmalloc_array/kcalloc conversion warningsJoe Perches1-8/+9
Avoid matching allocs that appear to be known small multiplications of a sizeof with a constant because gcc as of 4.8 cannot optimize the code in a calloc() exactly the same way as an alloc(). Look for numeric constants or what appear to be upper case only macro #defines.

2014-08-06checkpatch: improve "no space after cast" testJoe Perches1-3/+3
This --strict test previously worked only for what appeared to be cast to pointer types. Make it work for all casts. Also, there's no reason to show the previous line for this type of message, so don't.

2014-08-06checkpatch: allow multiple const * typesJoe Perches1-1/+1
checkpatch's $Type variable does not match declarations of multiple const * types.

2014-08-06checkpatch: warn on unnecessary else after return or breakJoe Perches1-0/+10
Using an else following a break or return can unnecessarily indent code blocks. ie: for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) { int foo = bar(); if (foo < 1) break; else usleep(1); } is generally better written as: for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) { int foo = bar(); if (foo < 1) break; usleep(1); } Warn when a bare else statement is preceded by a break or return indented 1 tab more than the else.

2014-08-06checkpatch: attempt to find unnecessary 'out of memory' messagesJoe Perches1-0/+17
Logging messages that show some type of "out of memory" error are generally unnecessary as there is a generic message and a stack dump done by the memory subsystem. These messages generally increase kernel size without much added value. Emit a warning on these types of messages. This test looks for any inserted message function, then looks at the previous line for an "if (!foo)" or "if (foo == NULL)" test and then looks at the preceding statement for an allocation function like "foo = kmalloc()" ie: this code matches: foo = kmalloc(); if (foo == NULL) { printk("Out of memory\n"); return -ENOMEM; } This test is very crude and incomplete. This test can miss quite a lot of of OOM messages that do not have this specific form. ie: this code does not match: foo = kmalloc(); if (!foo) { rtn = -ENOMEM; printk("Out of memory!\n"); goto out; } This test could also be a false positive when the logging message itself does not specify anything about memory, but I did not find any false positives in my limited testing. spatch could be a better solution but correctness seems non-trivial for that tool too.
