[PATCH] kbuild: fix modpost segfault for 64bit mipsel kernel

2006-05-21T19:59:21Z

Here is an updated r_info layout fix. Please apply "check SHT_REL sections" patch before this. 64bit mips has different r_info layout. This patch fixes modpost segfault for 64bit little endian mips kernel. Signed-off-by: Atsushi Nemoto Cc: Sam Ravnborg Cc: Ralf Baechle Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] kbuild: check SHT_REL sections

2006-05-21T19:59:21Z

I found that modpost can not detect section mismatch on mips and i386. On mips64, the modpost (with r_info layout fix) can detect it. The current modpst only checks SHT_RELA section but I suppose SHT_REL section should be checked also. This patch does not contain r_info layout fix. I'll post an updated r_info layout fix on next mail. Check SHT_REL sections as like as SHT_RELA sections to detect section mismatch.

This reverts commit c8d8b837ebe4b4f11e1b0c4a2bdc358c697692ed, which caused problems for the x86 build. Quoth Sam: "It was discussed on mips list but apparently the fix was bogus. I will not have time to look into it so mips can carry this local fix until we get a proper fix in mainline." Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

kbuild: Do not overwrite makefile as anohter user

2006-05-08T04:55:32Z

Change the conditional of the outputmakefile rule to be evaluated entirely in make, and add a conditional to not touch the generated makefile when e.g. running 'make install' as root while the build was done as non-root. Also adjust the comment describing this, and move the message printing and redirection to mkmakefile. Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

Relax driver data name from *_driver to *driver. This fixes the 26 section mismatch warnings in drivers/ide/pci. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
