2007-05-02kbuild: fix warnings from .pci_fixup sectionSam Ravnborg
Now where we do not pass vmlinux to modpost we started to see section mismatch warnings from .pci_fixup. Refactored code a little to include these in the whitelist again. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2007-05-02kbuild: whitelist section mismatch in init/main.cSam Ravnborg
In init/main.c we have a reference from rest_init() to .init.text which is intentional. Rename the function 'init' to 'kernel_init' to make it a kernel wide unique symbol and whitelist the reference. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2007-05-02kbuild: fix section mismatch check for vmlinuxSam Ravnborg
vmlinux does not contain relocation entries which is used by the section mismatch checks. Reported by: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp> Use the individual objects as inputs to overcome this limitation. In modpost check the .o files and skip non-ELF files.

These functions are put in .text section and they in-turn access __init type functions hence modpost generates warnings. o Do not iniline acpi_madt_oem_check, instead make it __init.

2007-04-01[PATCH] kbuild: fix dependency generationJan Beulich
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.

2007-02-20[PATCH] remove modpost false warnings on ARMDavid Brownell
This patch stops "modpost" from issuing erroneous modpost warnings on ARM builds, which it's been doing since since maybe last summer. A canonical example would be driver method table entries: WARNING: <path> - Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text:<name>_remove from .data after '$d' (at offset 0x4) That "$d" symbol is generated by tools conformant with ARM ABI specs; in this case it's a symbol **in the middle of** a "<name>_driver" struct. The erroneous warnings appear to be issued because "modpost" whitelists references from "<name>_driver" data into init and exit sections ... but doesn't know should also include those "$d" mapping symbols, which are not otherwise associated with "<name>_driver" symbols. This patch prevents the modpost symbol lookup code from ever returning those mapping symbols, so it will return a whitelisted symbol instead. Then things work as expected. Now to revert various code-bloating "fixes" that got merged because of this modpost bug....

it in qconf.cc Added function sets "void (*conf_changed_callback)(void)". Call it, if .config's changed state changes. Use above in qconf.cc to set gui's save-widget's sensitvity.

2006-12-13[PATCH] kconfig: make sym_change_count static, let it be altered by 2 ↵Karsten Wiese
functions only Those two functions are void sym_set_change_count(int count) and void sym_add_change_count(int count) All write accesses to sym_change_count are replaced by calls to above functions. Variable and changer-functions are moved to confdata.c. IMO thats ok, as sym_change_count is an attribute of the .config's change state.

2006-12-13[PATCH] kconfig: new function "bool conf_get_changed(void)"Karsten Wiese
Run "make xconfig" on a freshly untarred kernel-tree. Look at the floppy disk icon of the qt application, that has just started: Its in a normal, active state. Mouse click on it: .config is being saved. This patch series changes things so taht after the mouse click on the floppy disk icon, the icon is greyed out. If you mouse click on it now, nothing happens. If you change some CONFIG_*, the floppy disk icon returns to "active state", that is, if you mouse click it now, .config is written. This patch: Returns sym_change_count to reflect the .config's change state. All read only accesses of sym_change_count are replaced by calls to conf_get_changed() . mconfig.c is manipulated to ask for saving only when conf_get_changed() returned true.

2006-12-10[PATCH] kbuild: don't put temp files in sourceRoman Zippel
The as-instr/ld-option need to create temporary files, but create them in the output directory, when compiling external modules. Reformat them a bit and use $(CC) instead of $(AS) as the former is used by kbuild to assemble files.
