2016-10-12scripts/tags.sh: enable code completion in VIMMathieu Maret1-1/+2
Vim, with the omnicppcomplete(#1) plugin, can do code completion using information build by ctags. Add flags needed by omnicppcomplete(#2) to have completion on member of structure. 1: https://github.com/vim-scripts/omnicppcomplete 2: https://github.com/vim-scripts/OmniCppComplete/blob/master/doc/omnicppcomplete.txt#L93 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160830191546.4469-1-mathieu.maret@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Mathieu Maret <mathieu.maret@gmail.com> Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2016-10-12checkpatch: improve the octal permissions testsJoe Perches1-16/+44
The function calls with octal permissions commonly span multiple lines. The current test is line oriented and fails to find some matches. Make the test use the $stat variable instead of the $line variable to span multiple lines. Also add a few functions to the known functions with permissions list. Move the SYMBOLIC_PERMS test to a separate section to find all the S_<FOO> permissions in any form not just those that have specific function names. This can now find and fix permissions uses like: .mode = S_<FOO> | S_<BAR>; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/b51bab60530912aae4ac420119d465c5b206f19f.1475030406.git.joe@perches.com Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Tested-by: Ramiro Oliveira <roliveir@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-10-08nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpusChris Metcalf3-1/+3
When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN". We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new .cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section. This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

2016-09-21ftrace/scripts: Add helper script to bisect function tracing problem functionsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+115
Every so often, with a special config or a architecture change, running function or function_graph tracing can cause the machien to hard reboot, crash, or simply hard lockup. There's some functions in the function graph tracer that can not be traced otherwise it causes the function tracer to recurse before the recursion protection mechanisms are in place. When this occurs, using the dynamic ftrace featuer that allows limiting what actually gets traced can be used to bisect down to the problem function. This adds a script that helps with this process in the scripts/tracing directory, called ftrace-bisect.sh The set up is to read all the functions that can be traced from available_filter_functions into a file (full_file). Then run this script passing it the full_file and a "test_file" and "non_test_file", where the test_file will be add to set_ftrace_filter. What ftarce_bisect.sh does, is to copy half of the functions in full_file into the test_file and the other half into the non_test_file. This way, one can cat the test_file into the set_ftrace_filter functions and only test the functions that are in that file. If it works, then we run the process again after copying non_test_file to full_file and repeating the process. If the system crashed, then the bad function is in the test_file and after a reboot, the test_file becomes the new full_file in the next iteration. When we get down to a single function in the full_file, then ftrace_bisect.sh will report that as the bad function. Full documentation of how to use this simple script is within the script file itself.

2016-09-20scripts/faddr2line: improve on base path filtering a bitLinus Torvalds1-1/+1
Due to our compiler include directives, the build pathnames for header files often end up being of the form "$srcdir/./include/linux/xyz.h", which ends up having that extra "." path component after the build base in it. Teach faddr2line to skip that too, to make code generated in inline functions in header files match the filename for the regular C files. Rabin Vincent pointed out that I can't make a stricter regexp match by using the " at " prefix for the pathname, because that ends up being locale-dependent. But this does require that the path match be preceded by a space, to make it a bit more strict (that matters mainly if we didn't find any base_dir at all, and we only end up with the "./" part of the match) Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Cc: Rabin Vincent <rabin@rab.in> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-09-01docs-rst: kernel-doc: fix typedef output in RST formatMauro Carvalho Chehab1-10/+24
When using a typedef function like this one: typedef bool v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, void * handle); The Sphinx C domain expects it to create a c:type: reference, as that's the way it creates the type references when parsing a c:function:: declaration. So, a declaration like: .. c:function:: bool v4l2_valid_dv_timings (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, const struct v4l2_dv_timings_cap * cap, v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc fnc, void * fnc_handle) Will create a cross reference for :c:type:`v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc`. So, when outputting such typedefs in RST format, we need to handle this special case, as otherwise it will produce those warnings: ./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:43: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc ./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:60: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc ./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:81: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc So, change the kernel-doc script to produce a RST output for the above typedef as: .. c:type:: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc **Typedef**: timings check callback **Syntax** ``bool v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, void * handle);`` Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2016-08-31ver_linux: complete awk implementationAlexander Kapshuk1-0/+89
The algorithm that extracts the version number of the utility being queried, and prints the name of the utility and its version number is currently implemented in awk. The code is used throughout the script, making its use repetative. The proposed implementation confines the algorithm in question to a function, which makes the script easier to read overall, as well as considerably reduces the number of lines of code. Every attempt has been made to retain the look and the format generated by the current implementation.

2016-08-25docs-rst: kernel-doc: better output struct membersMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
Right now, for a struct, kernel-doc produces the following output: .. c:type:: struct v4l2_prio_state stores the priority states **Definition** :: struct v4l2_prio_state { atomic_t prios[4]; }; **Members** ``atomic_t prios[4]`` array with elements to store the array priorities Putting a member name in verbatim and adding a continuation line causes the LaTeX output to generate something like: item[atomic_t prios\[4\]] array with elements to store the array priorities Everything inside "item" is non-breakable, with may produce lines bigger than the column width. Also, for function members, like: int (* rx_read) (struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u8 *buf, size_t count,ssize_t *num); It puts the name of the member at the end, like: int (*) (struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u8 *buf, size_t count,ssize_t *num) read With is very confusing. The best is to highlight what really matters: the member name. is a secondary information. So, change kernel-doc, for it to produce the output on a different way: **Members** ``prios[4]`` array with elements to store the array priorities Also, as the type is not part of LaTeX "item[]", LaTeX will split it into multiple lines, if needed. So, both LaTeX/PDF and HTML outputs will look good. It should be noticed, however, that the way Sphinx LaTeX output handles things like: Foo bar is different than the HTML output. On HTML, it will produce something like: **Foo** bar While, on LaTeX, it puts both foo and bar at the same line, like: **Foo** bar Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
