2006-01-08kbuild: reference_discarded additionDave Jones
Error: ./fs/quota_v2.o .opd refers to 0000000000000020 R_PPC64_ADDR64 .exit.text Been carrying this for some time in Red Hat trees. Keith Ownes <kaos@sgi.com> commented: For our future {in}sanity, add a comment that this is the ppc .opd section, not the ia64 .opd section. ia64 .opd should not point to discarded sections. Any idea why ppc .opd points to discarded sections when ia64 does not? AFAICT no ia64 object has a useful .opd section, they are all empty or (sometimes) a dummy entry which is 1 byte long. ia64 .opd data is built at link time, not compile time.

2005-09-10[PATCH] kbuild: ignore all debugging info sections in ↵Roland McGrath
scripts/reference_discarded.pl GCC 4 emits more DWARF debugging information than before and there is now a .debug_loc section as well. This causes "make buildcheck" to fail. Rather than just add that one to the special case list, I used a regexp to ignore any .debug_ANYTHING sections in case more show up in the future.

2005-07-14kbuild: fix buildcheckSam Ravnborg
From: Randy Dunlap <rddunlap@osdl.org> I should not have added init.text test here; it's more than useless, it actually degrades the output. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rddunlap@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2005-07-14buildcheck: reduce DEBUG_INFO noise from reference* scriptsSam Ravnborg
From: Randy Dunlap <rddunlap@osdl.org> Reduce noise in 'make buildcheck' that is caused by CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rddunlap@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2005-02-01[PATCH] mips: build script fixesRalf Bächle
Ignore a few MIPS specific sections that otherwise would cause a large number of false warnings in the kernel's scripts. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-01-20[PATCH] scripts/reference*.pl - treat built-in.o as conglomerateKeith Owens
scripts/reference*.pl - treat built-in.o as conglomerate. Ignore references from altinstructions to init text/data. Signed-off-by: Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2004-06-02[PATCH] Add reference_init.pl to `make buildcheck' targetAndrew Morton
`make buildcheck' only checks for calls to linker discarded sections, reference_init checks for calls to sections discarded at run time, init was cloned from discarded. They are separate because the linker detects the discarded case and I did not want to confuse users with messages about init text/data while they were fixing the linker errors.

2004-05-14[PATCH] make buildcheckAndrew Morton
From: Arjan van de Ven <arjanv@redhat.com> the patch below adds a "make buildcheck" target which checks for the "uses exit in init" bug using Keith Owen's script. In the future other similar sanity checks can be added to this target, but even just this one has been quite useful already. I use it in the kernel rpm build process for example, and I'm sure the OSDL build testers can/want to use it too. From: Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au> They commented out the progress print statements, I prefer to have them present but no big deal. The licence is missing.
