2010-10-12Merge branch 'kbuild/rc-fixes' into kbuild/kconfigMichal Marek8483-568581/+517131
We need to revert the temporary hack in 71ebc01, hence the merge.
2010-10-10kbuild: fix oldnoconfig to do the right thingKyle McMartin1-1/+1
Commit 861b4ea4 broke oldnoconfig when removed the oldnoconfig checks on if (input_mode == nonint_oldconfig || input_mode == oldnoconfig) { if (input_mode == nonint_oldconfig && sym->name && !sym_is_choice_value(sym)) { to avoid oldnoconfig chugging through the else stanza. Fix that to restore expected behaviour (which I've confirmed in the Fedora kernel build that the configs end up looking the same.)

2010-10-10kconfig: Temporarily disable dependency warningsMichal Marek1-0/+2
After fixing a use-after-free bug in kconfig, a 'make defconfig' or 'make allmodconfig' fills the screen with warnings that were not detected before. Given that we are close to the release now, disable the warnings temporarily and deal with them after 2.6.36. Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

commit 8baefd30b5b0101aa07aa75da44a9eee881eed28 of linux-next replaced a `switch()' statement with some `if()' statements, but left `break's in the `switch()' statement untouched.

2010-09-20kconfig: fix menuconfig on debian lennyJunio C Hamano1-0/+2
In 60f33b8 (kconfig: get rid of stray a.o, support ncursesw, 2006-01-15), support to link menuconfig with ncursesw library was added. To compute the linker command option -l, we check "libncursesw.{so,a,dylib}" to allow ncursesw to be used as a replacement ncurses. However, when checking what header file to include, we do not check /usr/include/ncursesw directory. Add /usr/include/ncursesw to the list of directories that are checked. With this patch, on my Debian Lenny box with libncursesw5-dev package but not libncurses5-dev package, I can say "make menuconfig".

2010-09-13nconfig: Fix help for choice menusStephen Boyd1-0/+2
When getting the help for a choice menu with a help section (for example the "Choose SLAB allocator" menu) nconfig pops up a window with nothing inside it. This is due to show_help() passing an empty string to show_scroll_win()'s 3rd argument. The option really does have help though, but it isn't a config symbol, so just add the help text for the option, and don't try to add anything else like the config option name.

2010-08-15mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard pageLinus Torvalds2-1/+15
This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user space. It does this by: - not showing the guard page in /proc/<pid>/maps It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized "mlockall()" in user space. By not showing the guard page as part of the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it. - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock the guard page. That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page, so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place. It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in /proc/<pid>/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file. Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.
