* checkpatch: add ability to --fix (coalesce) string fragments on multiple linesJoe Perches2014-12-111-46/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add --fix option to coalesce string fragments. This does not coalesce string fragments that have newline terminations or are otherwise exempted. Other miscellanea: o move all the string tests together. o fix get_quoted_string function for tab characters o fix concatination typo Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Cc: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* checkpatch: add --strict "pointer comparison to NULL" testJoe Perches2014-12-111-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems there are more and more uses of "if (!ptr)" in preference to "if (ptr == NULL)" so add a --strict test to emit a message when using the latter form. This also finds (ptr != NULL). Fix it too if desired.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Emit a warning when single line string coalescing occurs.

* checkpatch: add --strict preference for #defines using BIT(foo)Joe Perches2014-12-111-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Using BIT(foo) and BIT_ULL(bar) is more common now. Suggest using these macros over #defines with 1<<value. Add a --fix option too.

* checkpatch: allow certain SI units with three charactersJulius Werner2014-12-111-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Checkpatch flags CamelCase identifiers in strict mode, but it has a feature to ignore parts with only two characters to allow for SI units like mV or uA. Unfortunately, not all SI units fit in two characters, and not all are lower case followed by upper case. This patch adds hardcoded detection for frequency and 1024-based size units (Hz/KHz/MHz/GHz/THz and KiB/MiB/GiB/TiB), since allowing any three character combinations might be too lenient. The list can later be expanded as needed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Peter Hurley wrote: The use of older function ptr calling style, (*fn)(), makes static analysis more error-prone; replace with modern fn() style.

* checkpatch: try to avoid mask and shift errorsJoe Perches2014-12-111-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | Shift has a higher precedence that mask so warn when a mask then shift operation is done without parentheses around the mask. This test works well for a right shift, but the left shift is pretty commonly done correctly so only warn on the right shift.

* scripts/kernel-doc: don't eat struct members with __alignedJohannes Berg2014-12-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The change from \d+ to .+ inside __aligned() means that the following structure: struct test { u8 a __aligned(2); u8 b __aligned(2); }; essentially gets modified to struct test { u8 a; }; for purposes of kernel-doc, thus dropping a struct member, which in turns causes warnings and invalid kernel-doc generation. Fix this by replacing the catch-all (".") with anything that's not a semicolon ("[^;]").

Further, the whole entry did not work, because the regex needs to match from the beginning of a line, including keywords like 'static'. Finally, '\w' should not be used, because it stops at underscores which are often part of variable names in C, resulting in wrong entries in the tags file.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, Kconfig descriptions that use multi-byte UTF-8 characters (such as MTD_NAND_CAFE) will have their menu entries dropped from the 'make nconfig' ncurses menu, and all subsequent entries in the same window will be omitted. This seems to be due to the ncurses 'menu' library, which does not traditionally handle UTF-8 >8-bit characters properly. The ncursesw library ('w' is for "wide") is written to handle these UTF-8 characters, and is practically a drop-in replacement at the source level. Use it by default, if available.

For example, assume a Makefile like this obj-m = foo.o bar.o foo-objs := foo1.o foo2.o bar-objs := bar1.o bar2.o Without this patch, foo.o depends on all of foo1.o foo2.o bar1.o bar2.o.

Several false positives were removed, and several additional words added that were common in the kernel: backword backwords invalide valide recieves singed unsinged While going back and fixing existing spelling mistakes isn't a high priority, it'd be nice to try to catch them before they hit the tree. In the 13830 commits between 3.15 and 3.16, the script would have noticed 560 spelling mistakes.

Try to highlight them and emit a warning on their definition. Avoid warning on macros that use argument concatenation as those macros commonly create another function where the concatenation is used in the function name definition like: #define FOO_FUNC(name, rtn_type) \ rtn_type func##name(arg1, ...) \ { \ rtn_type rtn; \ [code...] \ return rtn; \ } Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This script is used by many other projects, and in some of them the requirement of at least 4 line long description for all Kconfig items is excessive. This patch adds a command line option to control the required minimum length. Tested running this script over a patch including a two line config description. The script generated a warning when invoked as is, and did not generate it when invoked with --min-conf-desc-length=2.

It is a bit bigger than usual, mainly because of a new driver and the vector extension patches. The interesting bits are: - Quite a bit of work on the tracing front. Uprobes is enabled and the ftrace code is reworked to get some of the lost performance back if CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled. - To improve boot time with CONFIG_DEBIG_PAGEALLOC, support for the IPTE range facility is added. - The rwlock code is re-factored to improve writer fairness and to be able to use the interlocked-access instructions. - The kernel part for the support of the vector extension is added. - The device driver to access the CD/DVD on the HMC is added, this will hopefully come in handy to improve the installation process. - Add support for control-unit initiated reconfiguration. - The crypto device driver is enhanced to enable the additional AP domains and to allow the new crypto hardware to be used. - Bug fixes" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux: (39 commits) s390/ftrace: simplify enabling/disabling of ftrace_graph_caller s390/ftrace: remove 31 bit ftrace support s390/kdump: add support for vector extension s390/disassembler: add vector instructions s390: add support for vector extension s390/zcrypt: Toleration of new crypto hardware s390/idle: consolidate idle functions and definitions s390/nohz: use a per-cpu flag for arch_needs_cpu s390/vtime: do not reset idle data on CPU hotplug s390/dasd: add support for control unit initiated reconfiguration s390/dasd: fix infinite loop during format s390/mm: make use of ipte range facility s390/setup: correct 4-level kernel page table detection s390/topology: call set_sched_topology early s390/uprobes: architecture backend for uprobes s390/uprobes: common library for kprobes and uprobes s390/rwlock: use the interlocked-access facility 1 instructions s390/rwlock: improve writer fairness s390/rwlock: remove interrupt-enabling rwlock variant. s390/mm: remove change bit override support ...
