fixes for using make 3.82

2010-08-26T23:43:56Z

commit 3c955b407a084810f57260d61548cc92c14bc627 upstream. It doesn't like pattern and explicit rules to be on the same line, and it seems to be more picky when matching file (or really directory) names with different numbers of trailing slashes.

kbuild: Fix modpost segfault

2010-08-02T17:30:19Z

commit 1c938663d58b5b2965976a6f54cc51b5d6f691aa upstream. Alan writes: > program: /home/alan/GitTrees/linux-2.6-mid-ref/scripts/mod/modpost -o > Module.symvers -S vmlinux.o > > Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. It just hit me. It's the offset calculation in reloc_location() which overflows: return (void *)elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset + (r->r_offset - sechdrs[section].sh_addr); E.g. for the first rodata r entry: r->r_offset < sechdrs[section].sh_addr and the expression in the parenthesis produces 0xFFFFFFE0 or something equally wise.

gconfig: fix build failure on fedora 13

2010-07-05T18:22:43Z

commit cbab05f041a4cff6ca15856bdd35238b282b64eb upstream. Making gconfig fails on fedora 13 as the linker cannot resolve dlsym. Adding libdl to the link command fixes this. make shows this error :- /usr/bin/ld: scripts/kconfig/kconfig_load.o: undefined reference to symbol 'dlsym@@GLIBC_2.2.5' /usr/bin/ld: note: 'dlsym@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO /lib64/libdl.so.2 so try adding it to the linker command line /lib64/libdl.so.2: could not read symbols: Invalid operation tested on x86_64 fedora 13.

scripts/kernel-doc: fix fatal error on function prototype

2010-03-24T23:31:20Z

Fix a fatal error in scripts/kernel-doc when a function signature uses __init_or_module (just ignore that string): Error(drivers/base/platform.c:568): cannot understand prototype: 'struct platform_device * __init_or_module platform_create_bundle(struct platform_driver *driver, int (*probe)(struct platform_device *), struct resource *res, unsigned int n_res, const void *data, size_t size) ' Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

get_maintainer: repair STDIN usage

2010-03-24T23:31:20Z

Commit 22dd5b0cba50a197aaa3bd2790a29ee2e8e4e372 (fix perlcritic warnings) broke the ability to handle STDIN because the three argument version of open() cannot handle standard IO-streams (which is mentioned in PerlBestPractices, too).

scripts/kernel-doc: handle struct member __aligned

2010-03-24T23:31:19Z

scripts/kernel-doc erroneously says: Warning(include/linux/skbuff.h:410): Excess struct/union/enum/typedef member 'cb' description in 'sk_buff' on this line in struct sk_buff: char cb[48] __aligned(8); due to treating the last field as the struct member name, so teach kernel-doc to ignore __aligned(x) in structs.

scripts/kernel-doc: fix empty function description section

2010-03-12T23:52:35Z

scripts/kernel-doc mishandles a function that has a multi-line function short description and no function parameters. The observed problem was from drivers/scsi/scsi_netlink.c: /** * scsi_netlink_init - Called by SCSI subsystem to intialize * the SCSI transport netlink interface * **/ kernel-doc treated the " * " line as a Description: section with only a newline character in the Description contents. This caused output_highlight() to complain: "output_highlight got called with no args?", plus produce a perl call stack backtrace. The fix is just to ignore Description sections if they only contain "\n". Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
