gcc puts data into .data.rel or .data.rel.* on some architectures (e.g. ia64) or under certain conditions, so whatever is legal relative to .data should also be legal for those other sections.

Previously we did do the check on the .o files used to link vmlinux but that failed to find questionable references across the .o files. Create a dedicated vmlinux.o file used only for section mismatch checks that uses the defualt linker script so section does not get renamed. The vmlinux.o may later be used as part of the the final link of vmlinux but for now it is used fo section mismatch only. For a defconfig build this is instant but for an allyesconfig this add two minutes to a full build (that anyways takes ~2 hours). Signed-off-by: NSam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

There's a special .cranges section that is almost always generated, with data being moved to the appropriate section by the linker at a later stage. To give a bit of background, sh64 has both a native SHmedia instruction set (32-bit instructions) and SHcompact (which is compatability with normal SH -- 16-bit, a massively reduced register set, etc.). code ranges are emitted when we're using the 32-bit ABI, but not the 64-bit one. It is a special staging section used solely by binutils where code with different flags get placed (more specifically differing flags for input and output sections), before being lazily merged by the linker. The closest I've been able to find to documentation is: http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/ld/emultempl/sh64elf.em?rev=1.10&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=src It's an array of 8-byte Elf32_CRange structure given in http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/bfd/elf32-sh64.h?rev=1.4&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=src that describes for which ISA a range is used. Silence the warnings by allowing references from .init.text to .cranges. The following warnings are fixed: WARNING: init/built-in.o(.cranges+0x0): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: init/built-in.o(.cranges+0xa): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: init/built-in.o(.cranges+0x14): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: init/built-in.o(.cranges+0x1e): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: init/built-in.o(.cranges+0x28): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: init/built-in.o(.cranges+0x32): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x50): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x5a): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x64): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0xfa): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x104): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x10e): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x14a): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x154): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.cranges+0x15e): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.cranges+0x6e): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.cranges+0x78): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.cranges+0x82): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.cranges+0xaa): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: fs/built-in.o(.cranges+0x136): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: fs/built-in.o(.cranges+0x140): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: fs/built-in.o(.cranges+0x14a): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: fs/built-in.o(.cranges+0x168): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: fs/built-in.o(.cranges+0x1f4): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: fs/built-in.o(.cranges+0x1fe): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: net/built-in.o(.cranges+0x302): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: net/built-in.o(.cranges+0x30c): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: net/built-in.o(.cranges+0x316): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: net/built-in.o(.cranges+0x3a2): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: net/built-in.o(.cranges+0x3ac): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: net/built-in.o(.cranges+0x4ce): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: WARNING: net/built-in.o(.cranges+0x4d8): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: Signed-off-by: NPaul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Cc: Kaz Kojima <kkojima@rr.iij4u.or.jp> Signed-off-by: NSam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Throughout the kernel there are a few legitimite references to init or exit sections. Most of these are covered by the patterns included in modpost but a few nees special attention. To avoid hardcoding a lot of function names in modpost introduce a marker so relevant function/data can be marked. When modpost see a reference to a init/exit function from a function/data marked no warning will be issued.

Since the devices may have multiple (or none) compatible properties, the uevent generated internally by the kernel may have multiple "C..." entries. So the MODALIAS stored in the module must have wilcard before and after the compatible entry. Also, if the 'compatible' field is not used for matching, there will be no 'C' and that must handled as well. The previous code handled all those case incorrectly and it "mostly" worked ... but not always.

This patch is add white list into modpost.c for some functions and ia64's section to fix section mismatchs. sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() calls bootmem allocator at boot time, and kmalloc/vmalloc at hotplug time. If config memory hotplug is on, there are references of bootmem allocater(init text) from them (normal text). This is cause of section mismatch. Bootmem is called by many functions and it must be used only at boot time. I think __init of them should keep for section mismatch check. So, I would like to register sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() into white list. In addition, ia64's .machvec section is function table of some platform dependent code. It is mixture of .init.text and normal text. These reference of __init functions are valid too.

This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561 (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP, BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards. The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean, orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single instruction-set architecture. The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete documentation, including "getting started" guides available at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for bfin-linux-uclibc This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution, uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/ We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can be found at: http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel [m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl: balance parenthesis in blackfin header files] Signed-off-by: NBryan Wu <bryan.wu@analog.com> Signed-off-by: NMariusz Kozlowski <m.kozlowski@tuxland.pl> Signed-off-by: NAubrey Li <aubrey.li@analog.com> Signed-off-by: NJie Zhang <jie.zhang@analog.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This patch stops "modpost" from issuing erroneous modpost warnings on ARM builds, which it's been doing since since maybe last summer. A canonical example would be driver method table entries: WARNING: <path> - Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text:<name>_remove from .data after '$d' (at offset 0x4) That "$d" symbol is generated by tools conformant with ARM ABI specs; in this case it's a symbol **in the middle of** a "<name>_driver" struct. The erroneous warnings appear to be issued because "modpost" whitelists references from "<name>_driver" data into init and exit sections ... but doesn't know should also include those "$d" mapping symbols, which are not otherwise associated with "<name>_driver" symbols. This patch prevents the modpost symbol lookup code from ever returning those mapping symbols, so it will return a whitelisted symbol instead. Then things work as expected. Now to revert various code-bloating "fixes" that got merged because of this modpost bug....
