treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

2020-06-13T16:57:21+00:00

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances. This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation. There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---' In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the following commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

virtio-blk: remove VIRTIO_BLK_F_SCSI support

2020-02-06T08:40:26+00:00

Since the need for a special flag to support SCSI passthrough on a block device was added in May 2017 the SCSI passthrough support in virtio-blk has been disabled. It has always been a bad idea (just ask the original author..) and we have virtio-scsi for proper passthrough. The feature also never made it into the virtio 1.0 or later specifications.

docs: blockdev: convert to ReST

2019-07-15T12:20:26+00:00

Rename the blockdev documentation files to ReST, add an index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html output via the Sphinx build system. The drbd sub-directory contains some graphs and data flows. Add those too to the documentation. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

docs: cdrom: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

2019-06-14T20:20:46+00:00

The stuff there is almost already at ReST format. A conversion for them is trivial: just add a missing titles and fix some scape codes for them to match ReST syntax. While here, rename the cdrom-standard.txt, with was converted from LaTeX to ReST on the previous patch, and add it to the index file. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

drivers/block: remove redundant 'default n' from Kconfig-s

2018-10-10T20:11:08+00:00

'default n' is the default value for any bool or tristate Kconfig setting so there is no need to write it explicitly. Also since commit f467c5640c29 ("kconfig: only write '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' for visible symbols") the Kconfig behavior is the same regardless of 'default n' being present or not: ... One side effect of (and the main motivation for) this change is making the following two definitions behave exactly the same: config FOO bool config FOO bool default n With this change, neither of these will generate a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line (assuming FOO isn't selected/implied). That might make it clearer to people that a bare 'default n' is redundant. ... Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

cdrom: Use struct scsi_sense_hdr internally

2018-08-02T21:22:39+00:00

This removes more casts of struct request_sense and uses the standard struct scsi_sense_hdr instead. This also fixes any possible stale values since the prior code did not check the sense length. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

null_blk: remove explicit 'select FAULT_INJECTION'

2018-01-11T14:58:31+00:00

Selecting FAULT_INJECTION causes a Kconfig warning when CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL is not set: warning: (BLK_DEV_NULL_BLK && DRM_I915_SELFTEST) selects FAULT_INJECTION which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL) The other drivers that use FAULT_INJECTION tend to have a separate Kconfig symbol for turning on that feature, so let's do the same thing here. This may add a bit more complexity than we like, but it avoids the warning and is more consistent with the rest of the kernel.
