kbuild: warn redundant generic-y

2019-03-17T03:56:31Z

The generic-y is redundant under the following condition: - arch has its own implementation - the same header is added to generated-y - the same header is added to mandatory-y If a redundant generic-y is found, the warning like follows is displayed: scripts/Makefile.asm-generic:20: redundant generic-y found in arch/arm/include/asm/Kbuild: timex.h I fixed up arch Kbuild files found by this.

powerpc: generate uapi header and system call table files

2018-12-21T03:46:50Z

System call table generation script must be run to gener- ate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table_32/64/c32/spu.h files. This patch will have changes which will invokes the script. This patch will generate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table- _32/64/c32/spu.h files by the syscall table generation script invoked by parisc/Makefile and the generated files against the removed files must be identical. The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/- asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file will be included by kernel/systbl.S file.

arch: Remove clkdev.h asm-generic from Kbuild

2018-01-03T17:02:11Z

Now that every architecture is using the generic clkdev.h file and we no longer include asm/clkdev.h anywhere in the tree, we can remove it. Cc: Russell King Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven [m68k] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd

powerpc: allow compiling with GENERIC_MSI_IRQ_DOMAIN

2017-07-24T11:19:32Z

This allows building powerpc with the GENERIC_MSI_IRQ_DOMAIN Kconfig by enabling the asm-generic msi.h in Kbuild. Without this, there's a compilation error [1] because powerpc, as most arches, doesn't provide an asm/msi.h.

word-at-a-time.h: fix some Kbuild files

2015-10-06T18:52:48Z

arch/tile added word-at-a-time.h after the patch that added generic-y entries; the generic-y entry is now stale. arch/h8300 is newer than the generic-y patch for word-at-a-time.h, and needs a generic-y entry. arch/powerpc seems to have gotten a generic-y entry by mistake in the first patch; this change removes it.

Merge branch 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile

2015-10-04T15:31:13Z

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf. Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on the pull request, which is why it's going in only now. The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems. strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers. strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value which returns the original length of the source string. Which means that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily subtle. strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for untrusted source data too. So why did I waffle about this for so long? Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing these interminable series of trivial conversion patches. And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse. Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested. So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface. But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things that aren't actually known to be broken. * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy string: provide strscpy() Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

powerpc/ftrace: add powerpc timebase as a trace clock source

2015-08-06T06:36:23Z

Add a new powerpc-specific trace clock using the timebase register, similar to x86-tsc. This gives us - a fast, monotonic, hardware clock source for trace entries, and - a clock that can be used to correlate events across cpus as well as across hypervisor and guests.

Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

2015-07-08T20:41:55Z

Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the generic version, which previously only supported big-endian. Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in any case is also not present for the existing BE-only implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS. Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures that didn't previously have it. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf
