ftrace/recordmcount: Work around for addition of metag magic but not relocations

2016-08-20T16:11:00+00:00

commit b2e1c26f0b62531636509fbcb6dab65617ed8331 upstream. glibc recently did a sync up (94e73c95d9b5 "elf.h: Sync with the gabi webpage") that added a #define for EM_METAG but did not add relocations This triggers build errors: scripts/recordmcount.c: In function 'do_file': scripts/recordmcount.c:466:28: error: 'R_METAG_ADDR32' undeclared (first use in this function) case EM_METAG: reltype = R_METAG_ADDR32; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ scripts/recordmcount.c:466:28: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in scripts/recordmcount.c:468:20: error: 'R_METAG_NONE' undeclared (first use in this function) rel_type_nop = R_METAG_NONE; ^~~~~~~~~~~~ Work around this change with some more #ifdefery for the relocations.

Revert "scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree Parser"

2016-07-15T05:54:27+00:00

This reverts commit e127a73d41ac ("scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree Parser") The python implementation of radix-tree was merged at the same time as the radix-tree system was heavily reworked from commit e9256efcc8e3 ("radix-tree: introduce radix_tree_empty") to 3bcadd6fa6c4 ("radix-tree: free up the bottom bit of exceptional entries for reuse") and no longer functions, but also prevents other gdb scripts from loading. This functionality has not yet hit a release, so simply remove it for now Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1467127337-11135-6-git-send-email-kieran@bingham.xyz Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

scripts/gdb: Perform path expansion to lx-symbol's arguments

2016-07-15T05:54:27+00:00

Python doesn't do automatic expansion of paths. In case one passes path of the from ~/foo/bar the gdb scripts won't automatically expand that and as a result the symbols files won't be loaded. Fix this by explicitly expanding all paths which begin with "~" Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1467127337-11135-5-git-send-email-kieran@bingham.xyz Signed-off-by: Nikolay Borisov Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham Reviewed-by: Jan Kiszka Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

scripts/gdb: add constants.py to .gitignore

2016-07-15T05:54:27+00:00

Since scripts/gdb/linux/constants.py is autogenerated, this should have been added to .gitignore when it was introduced.

scripts/gdb: rebuild constants.py on dependancy change

2016-07-15T05:54:27+00:00

The autogenerated constants.py file was only being built on the initial call, and if the constants.py.in file changed. As we are utilising the CPP hooks, we can successfully use the call if_changed_dep rules to determine when to rebuild the file based on it's inclusions.

scripts/gdb: silence 'nothing to do' message

2016-07-15T05:54:27+00:00

The constants.py generation, involves a rule to link into the main makefile. This rule has no command and generates a spurious warning message in the build logs when CONFIG_SCRIPTS_GDB is enabled.

of: fix autoloading due to broken modalias with no 'compatible'

2016-06-08T00:40:20+00:00

Because of an improper dereference, a stray 'C' character was output to the modalias when no 'compatible' was specified. This is the case for some old PowerMac drivers which only set the 'name' property. Fix it to let them match again.
