2013-05-05T17:58:06Z

Pull mudule updates from Rusty Russell: "We get rid of the general module prefix confusion with a binary config option, fix a remove/insert race which Never Happens, and (my favorite) handle the case when we have too many modules for a single commandline. Seriously, the kernel is full, please go away!" * tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux: modpost: fix unwanted VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR expansion X.509: Support parse long form of length octets in Authority Key Identifier module: don't unlink the module until we've removed all exposure. kernel: kallsyms: memory override issue, need check destination buffer length MODSIGN: do not send garbage to stderr when enabling modules signature modpost: handle huge numbers of modules. modpost: add -T option to read module names from file/stdin. modpost: minor cleanup. genksyms: pass symbol-prefix instead of arch module: fix symbol versioning with symbol prefixes CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX: cleanup.

linkage.h: fix build breakage due to symbol prefix handling

2013-05-01T22:51:29Z

Al's commit e1b5bb6d1236 ("consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations") broke the build on blackfin and metag due to the following code: #ifndef SYMBOL_NAME #ifdef CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX #define SYMBOL_NAME(x) CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ## x #else #define SYMBOL_NAME(x) x #endif #endif #define __SYMBOL_NAME(x) __stringify(SYMBOL_NAME(x)) __stringify literally stringifies CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ##x, so you get lines like this in kernel/sys_ni.s: .weak CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl .set CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl,CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_ni_syscall The patches in Rusty's modules-next tree such as "CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX: cleanup." cleans up the whole mess around symbol prefixes, so this patch just attempts to fix the build in the meantime. The intermediate definition of SYMBOL_NAME above isn't used and is incorrect when CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is defined as CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is a quoted string literal, so define __SYMBOL_NAME directly depending on CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX.

kbuild: Don't define ALIGN and ENTRY when preprocessing linker scripts.

2009-09-21T04:27:08Z

Adding a reference to to x86's causes the x86 linker script to have syntax errors, because the ALIGN and ENTRY keywords get redefined to the assembly implementations of those. One could fix this by adjusting the include structure, but I think any solution based on that approach would be fragile. Currently, it is impossible when writing a header to do something different for assembly files and linker scripts, even though there are clearly cases where one wants them to define macros differently for the two (ENTRY being an excellent example). So I think the right solution here is to introduce a new preprocessor definition, called LINKER_SCRIPT that is set along with __ASSEMBLY__ for linker scripts, and to use that to not define ALIGN and ENTRY in linker scripts. I suspect we'll find other uses for this mechanism in the future. Signed-off-by: Tim Abbott Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
