The method for listing varargs in kernel-doc notation is:
* @...: these arguments are printed by the @fmt argument
but scripts/kernel-doc is confused: it always lists varargs as:
... variable arguments
and ignores the @...: line's description, but then prints that
line after the list of function parameters as though it's
not part of the function parameters.
This patch makes kernel-doc print the supplied @... description if it is
present; otherwise a boilerplate "variable arguments" is printed.

Impact: new "power-tracer" ftrace plugin
This patch adds a C/P-state ftrace plugin that will generate
detailed statistics about the C/P-states that are being used,
so that we can look at detailed decisions that the C/P-state
code is making, rather than the too high level "average"
that we have today.
An example way of using this is:
mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
echo cstate > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled
sleep 1
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace | perl scripts/trace/cstate.pl > out.svg

Impact: widen the scope of recordmcount.pl
Besides .text section, there are three .text sections that won't
be freed after kernel booting. They are: .sched.text, .spinlock.text
and .kprobes.text, which contain functions we can trace. But the last
section ".kprobes.text" is particular, which has been marked as "notrace",
we ignore it. Thus we add other two sections.

Impact: cleanup of recordmcount.pl
Now that more architectures are being ported to the MCOUNT_RECORD
method, there is no reason to have each declare their own arch
specific variable if most of them share the same value. This patch
creates a set of default values for the arch specific variables
based off of i386.

Align the __mcount_loc sections so that architectures with strict

This fixes an issue where I was seeing unaligned accesses, which are not

Fix headers_install.pl and headers_check.pl to be compatible with versions
of Perl less than 5.6.0. It has been tested with Perl 5.005_03 and 5.8.8.
I realize this may not be an issue for most people, but there will still
be some that hit it, I imagine. There are three basic issues:
1. Prior to 5.6.0 open() only used 2 arguments, and the versions of
the scripts in 2.6.27.1 use 3.
2. 5.6.0 also introduced the ability to use uninitialized scalar
variables as file handles, which the current scripts make use of.
3. Lastly, 5.6.0 also introduced the pragma 'use warnings'. We can use
the -w switch and be backwards compatible.

setlocalversion used to use an abbreviated git commit sha1 to generate the
tag. This was changed in commit d882421f4e08ddf0a94245cdbe516db260aa6f41
"kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format"
to use git describe to come up with a tag. Which is nice, but git describe
sometimes can't describe the revision.
Commit 56b2f0706d82535fd8d85503f2dcc0be40c8e55d ("setlocalversion: do not
describe if there is nothing to describe") addressed this, but there is still
no tag generated.
So, generate a plain abbreviated sha1 tag like setlocalversion used to when
git describe comes up short.

linked into a module
This fixes a compile time warning which occurs whenever a static library
is linked into a kernel module. MODPOST tries to look for a
".<modulename>.cmd" file to look for its dependencies, but that file
doesn't exist or get generated for static libraries.
This patch prevents modpost from looking for a .cmd file when a module is
linked with a static library

The text section stays in memory without ever leaving. With the exception
of modules, but modules know how to handle that case. With the dynamic
ftrace tracer, we need to make sure that it does not try to modify code
that no longer exists. The only safe section is .text.
This patch changes the recordmcount script to only record the mcount calls
in the .text sections.

The recordmcount script requires that the actual arch is passed in.
This works well when ARCH=i386 or ARCH=x86_64 but does not handle the
case of ARCH=x86.
This patch adds a parameter to the function to pass in the number of
bits of the architecture. So that it can determine if x86 should be
run for x86_64 or i386 archs.

When bootgraph.pl parses a file, it gives one row for each initcall's
pid. But they are displayed in random (perl hash) order. Let's
sort the pids by the start time of their first initcall instead.
This helps trace module initcalls, where each has a separate pid.
bootgraph.pl will show module initcalls during the initramfs; it may
also be adapted to show subsequent module initcalls.

If you use KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG (even with empty file) you get broken
allmodconfig/allyesconfig; CONFIG_MODULES gets turned off, with obvious
massive fallout.
Breakage had been introduced when conf_set_all_new_symbols() got used
for allmodconfig et.al.
What happens is that sym_calc_value(modules_sym) done in
conf_read_simple() sets SYMBOL_VALID on both modules_sym and MODULES.
When we get to conf_set_all_new_symbols(), we set sym->def[S_DEF_USER]
on everything, but it has no effect on sym->curr for the symbols that
already have SYMBOL_VALID - these are stuck.
Solution: use sym_clear_all_valid() in there. Note that it makes
reevaluation of modules_sym redundant - sym_clear_all_valid() will do
that itself.

When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize
what is going on at which time. In addition, with the fastboot asynchronous
initcall level, it's very valuable to see which initcall gets run where
and when.
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).

The warning messages about old objcopy and local functions spam the
user quite drastically. Remove the warning until we can find a nicer
way of tell the user to upgrade their objcopy.

We shouldn't assume that files have their `x' bits set. There are various
ways in which file permissions get lost, including use of patch(1).
It might not be correct to assume that perl lives in $PATH?

The --globalize-symbols option came out in objcopy version 2.17.
If the kernel is being compiled on a system with a lower version of
objcopy, then we can not use the globalize / localize trick to
link to symbols pointing to local functions.
This patch tests the version of objcopy and will only use the trick
if the version is greater than or equal to 2.17. Otherwise, if an
object has only local functions within a section, it will give a
nice warning and recommend the user to upgrade their objcopy.
Leaving the symbols unrecorded is not that big of a deal, since the
mcount record method changes the actual mcount code to be a simple
"ret" without recording registers or anything.

During tests and checks, I've discovered that there were failures to
convert mcount callers into nops. Looking deeper into these failures,
code that was attempted to be changed was not an mcount caller.
The current code only updates if the code being changed is what it expects,
but I still investigate any time there is a failure.
What was happening is that a weak symbol was being used as a reference
for other mcount callers. That weak symbol was also referenced elsewhere
so the offsets were using the strong symbol and not the function symbol
that it was referenced from.
This patch changes the setting up of the mcount_loc section to search
for a global function that is not weak. It will pick a local over a weak
but if only a weak is found in a section, a warning is printed and the
mcount location is not recorded (just to be safe).

I'm trying to keep all the arch changes in recordmcount.pl in one place.
I moved your code into that area, by adding the flags to the commands
that were passed in.
