scripts/kallsyms: filter symbols not in kernel address space

2013-11-13T03:08:09+00:00

commit f6537f2f0eba4eba3354e48dbe3047db6d8b6254 upstream. This patch uses CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET to filter symbols which are not in kernel address space because these symbols are generally for generating code purpose and can't be run at kernel mode, so we needn't keep them in /proc/kallsyms. For example, on ARM there are some symbols which may be linked in relocatable code section, then perf can't parse symbols any more from /proc/kallsyms, this patch fixes the problem (introduced b9b32bf70f2fb710b07c94e13afbc729afe221da) Cc: Russell King Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Cc: Michal Marek Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

checkpatch: make the CamelCase cache work for non-git trees too

2013-07-09T17:33:25+00:00

Might as well check include timestamps and cache the include file CamelCase uses for the non-git case too. The camelcase cache file is now named: for git: .checkpatch-camelcase.git. for non-git: .checkpatch-camelcase.date. All .checkpatch-camelcase* files are deleted if not current.

Pull first stage of __cpuinit removal from Paul Gortmaker: "The two commits here 1) dummy out all the __cpuinit macros so that we no longer generate such sections, and then 2) remove all the section processing that we used to do for those sections. This makes all the __cpuinit and friends no-ops, so that we can remove the use cases of it at our leisure. Expect stage 2, which does the tree wide removal sweep at the end of the merge window." * 'cpuinit-delete' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: modpost: remove all traces of cpuinit/cpuexit sections init.h: remove __cpuinit sections from the kernel

checkpatch: cache last camelcase hash as .checkpatch-camelcase.

2013-07-03T23:07:45+00:00

Add a file to cache the CamelCase variables found by to reduce the time it takes to scan the include/ directory. Filename is '.checkpatch-camelcase.' and it is created only only if a .git directory exists. is determined by the last non-merge commit id in the include/ path.
