2016-08-24fixdep: faster CONFIG_ searchAlexey Dobriyan1-58/+28
Do you think kernel build is 100% dominated by gcc? You are wrong! One small utility called "fixdep" consistently manages to sneak into profile's first page (unless you have small monitor of course). The choke point is this clever code: for (; m < end; m++) { if (*m == INT_CONF) { p = (char *) m ; goto conf; } if (*m == INT_ONFI) { p = (char *) m-1; goto conf; } if (*m == INT_NFIG) { p = (char *) m-2; goto conf; } if (*m == INT_FIG_) { p = (char *) m-3; goto conf; } 4 branches per 4 characters is not fast. Use strstr(3), so that SSE2 etc can be used. With this patch, fixdep is so deep at the bottom, it is hard to find it.

2016-07-22scripts: Fix size mismatch of kexec_purgatory_sizeTautschnig, Michael1-1/+2
bin2c is used to create a valid C file out of a binary file where two symbols will be globally defined: <name> and <name>_size. <name> is passed as the first parameter of the host binary. Building using goto-cc reported that the purgatory binary code (the only current user of this utility) declares kexec_purgatory_size as 'size_t' where bin2c generate <name>_size to be 'int' so in a 64-bit host where sizeof(size_t) > sizeof(int) this type mismatch will always yield the wrong value for big-endian architectures while for little-endian it will be wrong if the object laid in memory directly after kexec_purgatory_size contains non-zero value at the time of reading. This commit changes <name>_size to be size_t instead. Note: Another way to fix the problem is to change the type of kexec_purgatory_size to be 'int' as there's this check in code: (kexec_purgatory_size <= 0) Signed-off-by: Michael Tautschnig <tautschn@amazon.com> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Acked-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.com>
2016-03-29kbuild: add fine grained build dependencies for exported symbolsNicolas Pitre1-0/+1
Like with kconfig options, we now have the ability to compile in and out individual EXPORT_SYMBOL() declarations based on the content of include/generated/autoksyms.h. However we don't want the entire world to be rebuilt whenever that file is touched. Let's apply the same build dependency trick used for CONFIG_* symbols where the time stamp of empty files whose paths matching those symbols is used to trigger fine grained rebuilds. In our case the key is the symbol name passed to EXPORT_SYMBOL(). However, unlike config options, we cannot just use fixdep to parse the source code for EXPORT_SYMBOL(ksym) because several variants exist and parsing them all in a separate tool, and keeping it in synch, is not trivially maintainable. Furthermore, there are variants such as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pci_user_read_config_##size); that are instanciated via a macro for which we can't easily determine the actual exported symbol name(s) short of actually running the preprocessor on them. Storing the symbol name string in a special ELF section doesn't work for targets that output assembly or preprocessed source. So the best way is really to leverage the preprocessor by having it output actual symbol names anchored by a special sequence that can be easily filtered out. Then the list of symbols is simply fed to fixdep to be merged with the other dependencies. That implies the preprocessor is executed twice for each source file. A previous attempt relied on a warning pragma for each EXPORT_SYMBOL() instance that was filtered apart from stderr by the build system with a sed script during the actual compilation pass. Unfortunately the preprocessor/compiler diagnostic output isn't stable between versions and this solution, although more efficient, was deemed too fragile. Because of the lowercasing performed by fixdep, there might be name collisions triggering spurious rebuilds for similar symbols. But this shouldn't be a big issue in practice. (This is the case for CONFIG_* symbols and I didn't want to be different here, whatever the original reason for doing so.) To avoid needless build overhead, the exported symbol name gathering is performed only when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is selected.

2014-08-08bin2c: move bin2c in scripts/basicVivek Goyal3-0/+37
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.

2013-04-05kbuild: fixdep: support concatenated dep filesStephen Warren1-32/+61
The current use-case for fixdep is: a source file is run through a single processing step, which creates a single dependency file as a side-effect, which fixdep transforms into the file used by the kernel build process. In order to transparently run the C pre-processor on device-tree files, we wish to run both gcc -E and dtc on a source file in a single rule. This generates two dependency files, which must be transformed together into the file used by the kernel build process. This change modifies fixdep so it can process the concatenation of multiple separate input dependency files, and produce a correct unified output. The code changes have the slight benefit of transforming the loop in parse_dep_file() into more of a lexer/tokenizer, with the loop body being more of a parser. Previously, some of this logic was mixed together before the loop. I also added some comments, which I hope are useful. Benchmarking shows that on a cross-compiled ARM tegra_defconfig build, there is less than 0.5 seconds speed decrease with this change, on top of a build time of ~2m24s. This is probably within the noise. Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com> Acked-by: Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com>

2008-10-16driver core: basic infrastructure for per-module dynamic debug messagesJason Baron2-1/+65
Base infrastructure to enable per-module debug messages. I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file, currently, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set. The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis. Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define their own debug levels and flags. Usage: Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows: <module_name> <enabled=0/1> . . . <module_name> : Name of the module in which the debug call resides <enabled=0/1> : whether the messages are enabled or not For example: snd_hda_intel enabled=0 fixup enabled=1 driver enabled=0 Enable a module: $echo "set enabled=1 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules Disable a module: $echo "set enabled=0 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules Enable all modules: $echo "set enabled=1 all" > dynamic_printk/modules Disable all modules: $echo "set enabled=0 all" > dynamic_printk/modules Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above disable command.

Commit 2e3646e51b2d6415549b310655df63e7e0d7a080 changed the way the split config tree is built, but failed to also adjust fixdep accordingly - if changing a config option from or to m, files referencing the respective CONFIG_..._MODULE (but not the corresponding CONFIG_...) didn't get rebuilt. The problem is that trisate symbol are represent with three different symbols: SYMBOL=n => no symbol defined SYMBOL=y => CONFIG_SYMBOL defined to '1' SYMBOL=m => CONFIG_SYMBOL_MODULE defined to '1' But conf_split_config do not distingush between the =y and =m case, so only the =y case is honoured. This is fixed in fixdep so when a CONFIG symbol with _MODULE is found we skip that part and only look for the CONFIG_SYMBOL version.

A nice side effect is that this saves a bit of disk space and cache, as no data needs to be read from or saved into the splitted config files anymore (e.g. include/config is now 648KB instead of 5.2MB).

2006-02-19kbuild: consolidate command line escapingJan Beulich1-12/+2
While the recent change to also escape # symbols when storing C-file compilation command lines was helpful, it should be in effect for all command lines, as much as the dollar escaping should be in effect for C-source compilation commands. Additionally, for better readability and maintenance, consolidating all the escaping (single quotes, dollars, and now sharps) was also desirable.

2005-12-25kbuild: escape '#' in .target.cmd filesSam Ravnborg1-1/+14
Commandlines are contained in the .<target>.cmd files and in case they contain a '#' char make see this as start of comment. Teach fixdep to escape the '#' char so make will assing the full commandline. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2005-10-18Add some basic .gitignore filesLinus Torvalds1-0/+3
This still leaves driver and architecture-specific subdirectories alone, but gets rid of the bulk of the "generic" generated files that we should ignore. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-25[PATCH] Kill signed charsJ.A. Magallon3-18/+18
scripts/ is full of mismatches between char* params an signed char* arguments, and viceversa. gcc4 now complaints loud about this. Patch below deletes all those 'signed'. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds4-0/+1032
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
