The commit f02e8a65 sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section. The sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker. Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux (already linked) and all modules object files (which aren't linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks modpost that can't detect license properly for modules. This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure. Thanks to Arnaud Lacombe <lacombar@gmail.com> and Anders Kaseorg <andersk@ksplice.com> for providing useful suggestions about code. This work was supported by a hardware donation from the CE Linux Forum.

Userspace wants to manage module parameters with udev rules. This currently only works for loaded modules, but not for built-in ones. To allow access to the built-in modules we need to re-trigger all module load events that happened before any userspace was running. We already do the same thing for all devices, subsystems(buses) and drivers. This adds the currently missing /sys/module/<name>/uevent files to all module entries.

The module loader code allows architectures to hook into the code by providing a small number of entry points that each arch must implement. This patch provides __weakly linked generic implementations of these entry points for architectures that don't need to do anything special.

In STANDARD_PARAM_DEF, param_set_* handles the case in which strtolfn returns -EINVAL but it may return -ERANGE. If it returns -ERANGE, param_set_* may set uninitialized value to the paramerter. We should handle both cases. The one of the cases in which strtolfn() returns -ERANGE is following: *Type of module parameter is long *Set the parameter more than LONG_MAX Signed-off-by: Satoru Moriya <satoru.moriya@hds.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

This make sure we don't use wrong inode from the inode hash. The inode number of the file deleted is reused by the next file system object created and if we only use inode number for inode hash lookup we could end up with wrong struct inode. Also compare inode generation number. Not all Linux file system provide st_gen in userspace.

There are many places in the tree where we implement register access for devices on non-memory mapped buses, especially I2C and SPI. Since hardware designers seem to have settled on a relatively consistent set of register interfaces this can be effectively factored out into shared code. There are a standard set of formats for marshalling data for exchange with the device, with the actual I/O mechanisms generally being simple byte streams. We create an abstraction for marshaling data into formats which can be sent on the control interfaces, and create a standard method for plugging in actual transport underneath that. This is mostly a refactoring and renaming of the bottom level of the existing code for sharing register I/O which we have in ASoC. A subsequent patch in this series converts ASoC to use this. The main difference in interface is that reads return values by writing to a location provided by a pointer rather than in the return value, ensuring we can use the full range of the type for register data. We also use unsigned types rather than ints for the same reason. As some of the devices can have very large register maps the existing ASoC code also contains infrastructure for managing register caches. This cache work will be moved over in a future stage to allow for separate review, the current patch only deals with the physical I/O.

virtio has been so far used only in the context of virtualization, and the virtio Kconfig was sourced directly by the relevant arch Kconfigs when VIRTUALIZATION was selected. Now that we start using virtio for inter-processor communications, we need to source the virtio Kconfig outside of the virtualization scope too. Moreover, some architectures might use virtio for both virtualization and inter-processor communications, so directly sourcing virtio might yield unexpected results due to conflicting selections. The simple solution offered by this patch is to always source virtio's Kconfig in drivers/Kconfig, and remove it from the appropriate arch Kconfigs. Additionally, a virtio menu entry has been added so virtio drivers don't show up in the general drivers menu. This way anyone can use virtio, though it's arguably less accessible (and neat!) for virtualization users now. Note: some architectures (mips and sh) seem to have a VIRTUALIZATION menu merely for sourcing virtio's Kconfig, so that menu is removed too.
