reciprocal_div: objects with exported symbols should be obj-y rather than lib-y

2014-11-16T19:18:53Z

Otherwise the exported symbols might be discarded because of no users in vmlinux. Reported-by: Jim Davis Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

lib: rename TEST_MODULE to TEST_LKM

2014-10-14T00:18:14Z

The "_MODULE" suffix is reserved for tristates compiled as loadable kernel modules (LKM). The "TEST_MODULE" feature thereby violates this convention. The feature is used to compile the lib/test_module.c kernel module. Sadly this convention is not made explicit, but the Kconfig code documents it. The following code (./scripts/kconfig/confdata.c) is used to generate the autoconf.h header file during the build process. When a feature is selected as a kernel module ('m'), it is suffixed with "_MODULE" to indicate it. switch (*value) { case 'n': break; case 'm': suffix = "_MODULE"; /* fall through */ This causes problems for static code analysis, which assumes a consistent use of the "_MODULE" suffix. This patch renames the feature and its reference in a Makefile to "TEST_LKM", which still expresses the test of a LKM.

lib: remove prio_heap

2014-10-14T00:18:14Z

The prio_heap code is unused since commit 889ed9ceaa97 ("cgroup: remove css_scan_tasks()"). It should be compiled out to shrink the binary kernel size which can be done via introducing CONFIG_PRIO_HEAD or by removing the code. We can simply recover the code from git when needed, so it would be better to remove it IMO. Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan Acked-by: Tejun Heo Cc: "David S.

lib: add lib/glob.c

2014-08-07T01:01:24Z

This is a helper function from drivers/ata/libata_core.c, where it is used to blacklist particular device models. It's being moved to lib/ so other drivers may use it for the same purpose. This implementation in non-recursive, so is safe for the kernel stack.

lib: Resizable, Scalable, Concurrent Hash Table

2014-08-03T02:49:38Z

Generic implementation of a resizable, scalable, concurrent hash table based on [0]. The implementation supports both, fixed size keys specified via an offset and length, or arbitrary keys via own hash and compare functions. Lookups are lockless and protected as RCU read side critical sections. Automatic growing/shrinking based on user configurable watermarks is available while allowing concurrent lookups to take place. Objects to be hashed must include a struct rhash_head. The reason for not using the existing struct hlist_head is that the expansion and shrinking will have two buckets point to a single entry which would lead in obscure reverse chaining behaviour. Code includes a boot selftest if CONFIG_TEST_RHASHTABLE is defined.

net: filter: BPF testsuite

2014-05-12T04:23:55Z

The testsuite covers classic and internal BPF instructions. It is particularly useful for JIT compiler developers. Adds to "net" selftest target. The testsuite can be used as a set of micro-benchmarks. It measures execution time of each BPF program in nsec. This patch adds core framework.
