| * scripts: remove namespace.plJacob Keller2020-10-111-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | namespace.pl is intended to help locate symbols which are defined but are not used externally. The goal is to avoid bloat of the namespace in the resulting kernel image. The script relies on object data, and only finds unused symbols for the configuration used to generate that object data. This results in a lot of false positive warnings such as symbols only used by a single architecture, or symbols which are used externally only under certain configurations. Running namespace.pl using allyesconfig, allmodconfig, and x86_64_defconfig yields the following results: * allmodconfig * 11122 unique symbol names with no external reference * 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined * 214 symbols it can't resolve * allyesconfig * 10997 unique symbol names with no external reference * 1194 symbols listed as multiply defined * 214 symbols it can't resolve * x86_64_defconfig * 5757 unique symbol names with no external reference * 528 symbols listed as multiply defined * 154 symbols it can't resolve The script also has no way to easily limit the scope of the checks to a given subset of the kernel, such as only checking for symbols defined within a module or subsystem. Discussion on public mailing lists seems to indicate that many view the tool output as suspect or not very useful (see discussions at [1] and [2] for further context). As described by Masahiro Yamada at [2], namespace.pl provides 3 types of checks: listing multiply defined symbols, resolving external symbols, and warnings about symbols with no reference. The first category of issues is easily caught by the linker as any set of multiply defined symbols should fail to link. The second category of issues is also caught by linking, as undefined symbols would cause issues. Even with modules, these types of issues where a module relies on an external symbol are caught by modpost. The remaining category of issues reported is the list of symbols with no external reference, and is the primary motivation of this script. However, it ought to be clear from the above examples that the output is difficult to sort through. Even allyesconfig has ~10000 entries. The current submit-checklist indicates that patches ought to go through namespacecheck and fix any new issues arising. But that itself presents problems. As described at [1], many cases of reports are due to configuration where a function is used externally by some configuration settings. Prominent maintainers appear to dislike changes modify code such that symbols become static based on CONFIG_* flags ([3], and [4]) One possible solution is to adjust the advice and indicate that we only care about the output of namespacecheck on allyesconfig or allmodconfig builds... However, given the discussion at [2], I suspect that few people are actively using this tool. It doesn't have a maintainer in the MAINTAINERS flie, and it produces so many warnings for unused symbols that it is difficult to use effectively. Thus, I propose we simply remove it.

He was correct to do so, as the choices in these instances did not always advance the aims of the submitters. But, this left submitters (and the folks who help them pick licenses) a bit confused. They have read things like Documentation/process/license-rules.rst which says: individual source files can have a different license which is required to be compatible with the GPL-2.0 and Documentation/process/submitting-drivers.rst: We don't insist on any kind of exclusive GPL licensing, and if you wish ... you may well wish to release under multiple licenses. As written, these appear a _bit_ more laissez faire than we've been in practice lately. It sounds like we at least expect submitters to make a well-reasoned license choice and to explain their rationale. It does not appear that we blindly accept anything that is simply GPLv2-compatible. Drivers appear to be the most acute source of misunderstanding, so fix the driver documentation first. Update it to clarify expectations.

We can probably widen the support window of supported versions over time. Also, note that LLVM's release process is different than GCC's. GCC tends to have 1 major release per year while releasing minor updates to the past 3 major versions. LLVM tends to support one major release and one minor release every six months.

But it's not the hard limit that the checkpatch warnings imply, and other concerns can most certainly dominate. Increase the default limit to 100 characters. Not because 100 characters is some hard limit either, but that's certainly a "what are you doing" kind of value and less likely to be about the occasional slightly longer lines. Miscellanea: - to avoid unnecessary whitespace changes in files, checkpatch will no longer emit a warning about line length when scanning files unless --strict is also used - Add a bit to coding-style about alignment to open parenthesis Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The currently minimum-supported binutils version 2.21 has the problem of promoting symbols which are defined outside of a section into absolute. According to Arvind: binutils-2.21 and -2.22. An x86-64 defconfig will fail with Invalid absolute R_X86_64_32S relocation: _etext and after fixing that one, with Invalid absolute R_X86_64_32S relocation: __end_of_kernel_reserve Those two versions of binutils have a bug when it comes to handling symbols defined outside of a section and binutils 2.23 has the proper fix, see: https://sourceware.org/legacy-ml/binutils/2012-06/msg00155.html Therefore, up to the fixed version directly, skipping the broken ones. Currently shipping distros already have the fixed binutils version so there should be no breakage resulting from this. For more details about the whole thing, see the thread in Link.
