| * allow stripping of generated symbols under CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALLJan Beulich2008-12-193-106/+106
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Building upon parts of the module stripping patch, this patch introduces similar stripping for vmlinux when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y. Using CONFIG_KALLSYMS_STRIP_GENERATED reduces the overhead of CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL from 245k/310k to 65k/80k for the (i386/x86-64) kernels I tested with. The patch also does away with the need to special case the kallsyms- internal symbols by making them available even in the first linking stage. While it is a generated file, the patch includes the changes to scripts/genksyms/keywords.c_shipped, as I'm unsure what the procedure here is.

| * kbuild: strip generated symbols from *.koJan Beulich2008-12-195-32/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the way __crc_ symbols are being resolved from using ld to do so to using the assembler, thus allowing these symbols to be marked local (the linker creates then as global ones) and hence allow stripping (for modules) or ignoring (for vmlinux) them. While at this, also strip other generated symbols during module installation. One potentially debatable point is the handling of the flags passeed to gcc when translating the intermediate assembly file into an object: passing $(c_flags) unchanged doesn't work as gcc passes --gdwarf2 to gas whenever is sees any -g* option, even for -g0, and despite the fact that the compiler would have already produced all necessary debug info in the C->assembly translation phase. I took the approach of just filtering out all -g* options, but an alternative to such negative filtering might be to have a positive filter which might, in the ideal case allow just all the -Wa,* options to pass through.

| * genksyms: allow to ignore symbol checksum changesAndreas Gruenbacher2008-12-032-4/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds an "override" keyword for use in *.symvers / *.symref files. When a symbol is overridden, the symbol's old definition will be used for computing checksums instead of the new one, preserving the previous checksum. (Genksyms will still warn about the change.) This is meant to allow distributions to hide minor actual as well as fake ABI changes. (For example, when extra type information becomes available because additional headers are included, this may change checksums even though none of the types used have actully changed.) This approach also allows to get rid of "#ifdef __GENKSYMS__" hacks in the code, which are currently used in some vendor kernels to work around checksum changes.

| * genksyms: track symbol checksum changesAndreas Gruenbacher2008-12-033-19/+239
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes it is preferable to avoid changes of exported symbol checksums (to avoid breaking externally provided modules). When a checksum change occurs, it can be hard to figure out what caused this change: underlying types may have changed, or additional type information may simply have become available at the point where a symbol is exported. Add a new --reference option to genksyms which allows it to report why checksums change, based on the type information dumps it creates with the --dump-types flag. Genksyms will read in such a dump from a previous run, and report which symbols have changed (and why). The behavior can be controlled for an entire build as follows: If KBUILD_SYMTYPES is set, genksyms uses --dump-types to produce *.symtypes dump files. If any *.symref files exist, those will be used as the reference to check against. If KBUILD_PRESERVE is set, checksum changes will fail the build.

So we had a commandline that looked like this: ... -I -Wall ... This had the undesired side effect that gcc assumed "-Wall" was a path to look for include files so this options was effectively ignored. This happens only when we build the generated module.mod.c files as part of the final modules builds and is as such harmless with current kbuild. This bug was exposed when we rearranged the options to gcc. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

| * Fix incompatibility with versions of Perl less than 5.6.0Jeremy Huntwork2008-10-292-13/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
