2007-10-14i2c: Kill struct i2c_device_idJean Delvare1-11/+0
I2C devices do not have any form of ID as PCI or USB devices have. No driver uses "MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(i2c, ...)" because it doesn't make sense. So we can get rid of struct i2c_device_id and the associated support code. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>

2007-10-11[NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=nPavel Emelyanov1-0/+1
With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section, thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before. Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot. Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes" for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS is not set to save more space in memory. The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section, as noticed by David, since the init section will have references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already done with the __init_refok.

2007-07-26kbuild: fix modpost warnings for xtensaSam Ravnborg1-6/+24
The Xtensa architecture places literal pools in sections separate from the instructions. The corresponsing text sections, therefore, reference the .literal section, and we have to suppress those warnings. The naming convention defines the name for a literal section as .SECTION.literal, unless .SECTION is .text. In that case the name is only .literal. Using strncmp() instead of strcmp() to compare the from-section with .SECTION.init.refok in pattern 0 should not cause any regressions for other architectures. We also need to suppress warnings for two informational sections (.xt.lit and .xt.prop) used by the Xtensa architecture.

2007-07-17kallsyms: make KSYM_NAME_LEN include space for trailing '\0'Tejun Heo1-2/+2
KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating buffer. This is nonsense and error-prone. Moreover, when the caller forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero. This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly. * off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro is fixed. * Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together, MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the trailing '\0'.

2007-07-17kconfig: reset generated values only if Kconfig and .config agree.Roman Zippel1-11/+26
Normally generated values (Kconfig entries without a prompt) are cleared as they are regenerated anyway and so they appear as new should they become visible and defaults work as expected (once a value is set defaults aren't used anymore). The detection whether a value is generated or not is only based on its visibility status, which can quickly change for a lot of symbols by just removing a single line from .config or adding a dependency to Kconfig as you noticed. The patch now suppresses this logic when .config and Kconfig aren't in sync and .config needs to be updated, so that you can remove now a random value from .config and oldconfig won't reask for many other values.

2007-07-16kconfig: fix update-po-configSam Ravnborg2-18/+21
Massimo Maiurana <maiurana@gmail.com> reported that update-po-config was broken: 1) spelling errors in Makefile so arch/um failed 2) UTF-8 was not supported The following patch address the above problems. kxgettext now append the output to the .pot file generated by xgettext - so we have a header. In all places UFT-8 is specifed so we now flawlessly support UTF-8. The Kconfig files had an empty string in a few cases - these are now supressed in kxgettext. With this the translators can now pick up where they left and get it all translated. There are ~11000 strings to be translated...

2007-07-16kbuild: add support for squashing uid/gid in gen_initramfs_list.shMike Frysinger1-6/+6
Sometimes it is useful to squash all uid's/gid's to 0:0 regardless of current owner. For example, in build systems that get run as arbitrary users (uClinux-dist). This adds a special "squash" keyword so you can do '-g squash -u squash' and have ownership squashed to root.
