The module driver specific code should belong in the driver core, not in the kernel/ directory. So move this code. This is done in preparation for some struct device_driver rework that should be confined to the driver core code only. This also lets us keep from exporting these functions, as no external code should ever be calling it. Thanks to Andrew Morton for the !CONFIG_MODULES fix.

This patch adds the /sys/module/<name>/notes/ magic directory, which has a file for each allocated SHT_NOTE section that appears in <name>.ko. This is the counterpart for each module of /sys/kernel/notes for vmlinux. Reading this delivers the contents of the module's SHT_NOTE sections.

由 Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于
This patch adds common handling for kernel BUGs, for use by architectures as they wish. The code is derived from arch/powerpc. The advantages of having common BUG handling are: - consistent BUG reporting across architectures - shared implementation of out-of-line file/line data - implement CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE consistently This means that in inline impact of BUG is just the illegal instruction itself, which is an improvement for i386 and x86-64. A BUG is represented in the instruction stream as an illegal instruction, which has file/line information associated with it. This extra information is stored in the __bug_table section in the ELF file. When the kernel gets an illegal instruction, it first confirms it might possibly be from a BUG (ie, in kernel mode, the right illegal instruction). It then calls report_bug(). This searches __bug_table for a matching instruction pointer, and if found, prints the corresponding file/line information. If report_bug() determines that it wasn't a BUG which caused the trap, it returns BUG_TRAP_TYPE_NONE. Some architectures (powerpc) implement WARN using the same mechanism; if the illegal instruction was the result of a WARN, then report_bug(Q) returns CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE; otherwise it returns BUG_TRAP_TYPE_BUG. lib/bug.c keeps a list of loaded modules which can be searched for __bug_table entries. The architecture must call module_bug_finalize()/module_bug_cleanup() from its corresponding module_finalize/cleanup functions. Unsetting CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE will reduce the kernel size by some amount. At the very least, filename and line information will not be recorded for each but, but architectures may decide to store no extra information per BUG at all. Unfortunately, gcc doesn't have a general way to mark an asm() as noreturn, so architectures will generally have to include an infinite loop (or similar) in the BUG code, so that gcc knows execution won't continue beyond that point. gcc does have a __builtin_trap() operator which may be useful to achieve the same effect, unfortunately it cannot be used to actually implement the BUG itself, because there's no way to get the instruction's address for use in generating the __bug_table entry.

Right now, various kernel modules are being migrated over to use request_firmware in order to pull in binary firmware blobs from userland when the module is loaded. This makes sense. However, there is right now little mechanism in place to automatically determine which binary firmware blobs must be included with a kernel in order to satisfy the prerequisites of these drivers. This affects vendors, but also regular users to a certain extent too. The attached patch introduces MODULE_FIRMWARE as a mechanism for advertising that a particular firmware file is to be loaded - it will then show up via modinfo and could be used e.g. when packaging a kernel.

Got a customer bug report (https://bugzilla.novell.com/190296) about kernel symbols longer than 127 characters which end up in a string buffer that is not NULL terminated, leading to garbage in /proc/kallsyms. Using strlcpy prevents this from happening, even though such symbols still won't come out right. A better fix would be to not use a fixed-size buffer, but it's probably not worth the trouble. (Modversion'ed symbols even have a length limit of 60.)

Temporarily add EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL and EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL_GPL. These will be used as a transition measure for symbols that aren't used in the kernel and are on the way out. When a module uses such a symbol, a warning is printk'd at modprobe time. The main reason for removing unused exports is size: eacho export takes roughly between 100 and 150 bytes of kernel space in the binary.

This patch adds version and srcversion files to /sys/module/${modulename} containing the version and srcversion fields of the module's modinfo section (if present). /sys/module/e1000 |-- srcversion `-- version This patch differs slightly from the version posted in January, as it now uses the new kstrdup() call in -mm. Why put this in sysfs? a) Tools like DKMS, which deal with changing out individual kernel modules without replacing the whole kernel, can behave smarter if they can tell the version of a given module. The autoinstaller feature, for example, which determines if your system has a "good" version of a driver (i.e. if the one provided by DKMS has a newer verson than that provided by the kernel package installed), and to automatically compile and install a newer version if DKMS has it but your kernel doesn't yet have that version. b) Because sysadmins manually, or with tools like DKMS, can switch out modules on the file system, you can't count on 'modinfo foo.ko', which looks at /lib/modules/${kernelver}/... actually matching what is loaded into the kernel already. Hence asking sysfs for this. c) as the unbind-driver-from-device work takes shape, it will be possible to rebind a driver that's built-in (no .ko to modinfo for the version) to a newly loaded module. sysfs will have the currently-built-in version info, for comparison. d) tech support scripts can then easily grab the version info for what's running presently - a question I get often. There has been renewed interest in this patch on linux-scsi by driver authors. As the idea originated from GregKH, I leave his Signed-off-by: intact, though the implementation is nearly completely new. Compiled and run on x86 and x86_64.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
