9bb482476c allow stripping of generated symbols under CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL
Building upon parts of the module stripping patch, this patch
introduces similar stripping for vmlinux when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y.
Using CONFIG_KALLSYMS_STRIP_GENERATED reduces the overhead of
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL from 245k/310k to 65k/80k for the (i386/x86-64)
kernels I tested with.

The patch also does away with the need to special case the kallsyms-
internal symbols by making them available even in the first linking
stage.

While it is a generated file, the patch includes the changes to
scripts/genksyms/keywords.c_shipped, as I'm unsure what the procedure
here is.

ad7a953c52 kbuild: strip generated symbols from *.ko
This patch changes the way __crc_ symbols are being resolved from
using ld to do so to using the assembler, thus allowing these symbols
to be marked local (the linker creates then as global ones) and hence
allow stripping (for modules) or ignoring (for vmlinux) them. While at
this, also strip other generated symbols during module installation.

One potentially debatable point is the handling of the flags passeed
to gcc when translating the intermediate assembly file into an object:
passing $(c_flags) unchanged doesn't work as gcc passes --gdwarf2 to
gas whenever is sees any -g* option, even for -g0, and despite the
fact that the compiler would have already produced all necessary debug
info in the C->assembly translation phase. I took the approach of just
filtering out all -g* options, but an alternative to such negative
filtering might be to have a positive filter which might, in the ideal
case allow just all the -Wa,* options to pass through.

846442c8dd scripts: improve the decodecode script
kerneloops.org has been using an improved "decodecode" script,
specifically it has a special marker that shows which line in the assembly
the oops happened at, like this:

  20:	83 e0 03             	and    $0x3,%eax
  23:	09 d8                	or     %ebx,%eax
  25:	85 db                	test   %ebx,%ebx
  27:	89 02                	mov    %eax,(%edx)
  29:	74 0f                	je     0x3a
  2b:*	3b 73 04             	cmp    0x4(%ebx),%esi     <-- trapping instruction
  2e:	75 05                	jne    0x35
  30:	89 53 04             	mov    %edx,0x4(%ebx)
  33:	eb 07                	jmp    0x3c
  35:	89 53 08             	mov    %edx,0x8(%ebx)

5dae9a550a genksyms: allow to ignore symbol checksum changes
This adds an "override" keyword for use in *.symvers / *.symref files.
When a symbol is overridden, the symbol's old definition will be used for
computing checksums instead of the new one, preserving the previous
checksum.  (Genksyms will still warn about the change.)

This is meant to allow distributions to hide minor actual as well as fake
ABI changes.  (For example, when extra type information becomes available
because additional headers are included, this may change checksums even
though none of the types used have actully changed.)

This approach also allows to get rid of "#ifdef __GENKSYMS__" hacks in the
code, which are currently used in some vendor kernels to work around
checksum changes.

64e6c1e123 genksyms: track symbol checksum changes
Sometimes it is preferable to avoid changes of exported symbol checksums
(to avoid breaking externally provided modules).  When a checksum change
occurs, it can be hard to figure out what caused this change: underlying
types may have changed, or additional type information may simply have
become available at the point where a symbol is exported.

Add a new --reference option to genksyms which allows it to report why
checksums change, based on the type information dumps it creates with the
--dump-types flag.  Genksyms will read in such a dump from a previous run,
and report which symbols have changed (and why).

The behavior can be controlled for an entire build as follows: If
KBUILD_SYMTYPES is set, genksyms uses --dump-types to produce *.symtypes
dump files.  If any *.symref files exist, those will be used as the
reference to check against.  If KBUILD_PRESERVE is set, checksum changes
will fail the build.

a680eedc6c tags and cscope support really belongs in a shell script
as they do not benefit from the make functionality.

Moving the support to a shell script has several benefits:
- The readability of the code has increased a lot
- More people is able to extend the tags support
- We see less changes to the top-level Makefile

The shell script version includes improvements from:
Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> (jump to kconfig symbols)
Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> (drop ./ in paths)
Ian Campbell <ijc@hellion.org.uk> (simplified find algorithms)

This version has a few caveats:
=> It does not support ALLSOURCE_ARCHS
   - it is easy to add if it is really used
=> It assumes all archs have moved to arch/$ARCH/include
   - until that happens we have a few additional hits in the archs

5b91c33cf2 kbuild: fix -I option expansion with O=... builds
When adding extra -I options with O=... we could
end up in a situation where there were no parameters to -I.
So we had a commandline that looked like this:

    ... -I -Wall ...

This had the undesired side effect that gcc assumed "-Wall"
was a path to look for include files so this options was
effectively ignored.

This happens only when we build the generated module.mod.c files
as part of the final modules builds and is as such harmless
with current kbuild.
This bug was exposed when we rearranged the options to gcc.

ced69090c5 kernel-doc: handle varargs cleanly
The method for listing varargs in kernel-doc notation is:
 * @...: these arguments are printed by the @fmt argument

but scripts/kernel-doc is confused:  it always lists varargs as:
	...	variable arguments
and ignores the @...: line's description, but then prints that
line after the list of function parameters as though it's
not part of the function parameters.

This patch makes kernel-doc print the supplied @...  description if it is
present; otherwise a boilerplate "variable arguments" is printed.

15a2ee74d2 Fix incompatibility with versions of Perl less than 5.6.0
Fix headers_install.pl and headers_check.pl to be compatible with versions
of Perl less than 5.6.0.  It has been tested with Perl 5.005_03 and 5.8.8.
I realize this may not be an issue for most people, but there will still
be some that hit it, I imagine.  There are three basic issues:

1. Prior to 5.6.0 open() only used 2 arguments, and the versions of
the scripts in 2.6.27.1 use 3.
2. 5.6.0 also introduced the ability to use uninitialized scalar
variables as file handles, which the current scripts make use of.
3. Lastly, 5.6.0 also introduced the pragma 'use warnings'. We can use
the -w switch and be backwards compatible.

f03b283f08 kbuild: tag with git revision when git describe is missing
setlocalversion used to use an abbreviated git commit sha1 to generate the
tag.  This was changed in commit d882421f4e
"kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format"
to use git describe to come up with a tag.  Which is nice, but git describe
sometimes can't describe the revision.
Commit 56b2f0706d ("setlocalversion: do not
describe if there is nothing to describe") addressed this, but there is still
no tag generated.

So, generate a plain abbreviated sha1 tag like setlocalversion used to when
git describe comes up short.

e6e6733ed9 kbuild: prevent modpost from looking for a .cmd file for a static library linked into a module
This fixes a compile time warning which occurs whenever a static library
is linked into a kernel module.  MODPOST tries to look for a
".<modulename>.cmd" file to look for its dependencies, but that file
doesn't exist or get generated for static libraries.

This patch prevents modpost from looking for a .cmd file when a module is
linked with a static library

92f83cc56e kbuild: fix KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS
Taken from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11567

If you even define KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS in Makefile it will not be expanded
into command line argument for modpost.

13797b77d4 scripts/package: don't break if %{_smp_mflags} isn't set
Currently, if we do a 'make rpm-pkg' without the _smp_mflags rpm macro
defined, the build fails with:

  [snip]
  Executing(%build): /bin/bash -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.67959
  + umask 022
  + cd /home/jk/devel/kernel-snapshot/rpm/BUILD
  + cd kernel-2.6.26
  + make clean
  + make '%{_smp_mflags}'
  make[3]: *** No rule to make target `%{_smp_mflags}'.  Stop.
  error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.67959 (%build)

This change uses the 'null if not set' reference to the _smp_mflags
macro instead.

e3da2fb712 kbuild: setlocalversion: dont include svn change count
The number of pending changes is pretty useless, so encoding it into the
version is just annoying by the constant shuffle in corresponding modules.
