This patch adds a new (Kbuild) Makefile variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS. The space separated list of file names assigned to KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS is used when calling scripts/mod/modpost during stage 2 of the Kbuild process for non-kernel-tree modules. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a new command line option -E to modpost, expecting a symbol file as an argument which is read prior to symbol processing. -E can be supplied multiple times for as many files as is needed. When building kernel modules that depend on other modules not in the main kernel tree, modpost complains about undefined symbols: # make -C /path/to/linux/kernel M=/path/to/my/module ... Building modules, stage 2. .... WARNING: "rt_copy_buf" [/home/rich/osc_etl_rtw/osc_kmod.ko] undefined! ...etc This situation occurs when modpost processes the new module's symbols. When it finds symbols not exported by the mainline kernel, it issues this warning. The patch adds a new command line option -e to modpost which expects a symbol file as an argument. The symbols listed in this file are added to modpost's symbol tables during startup. -e can be supplied as often as required. This patch works together with the second patch. It introduces a new make variable, KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS, which is used when calling modpost. Signed-off-by:

Add option to enable -Wframe-larger-than= on gcc 4.4 gcc mainline (upcoming 4.4) added a new -Wframe-larger-than=... option to warn at build time about too large stack frames. Add a config option to enable this warning, since this very useful for the kernel. I choose (somewhat arbitarily) 2048 as default warning threshold for 64bit and 1024 as default for 32bit architectures. With some research and fixing all the code for smaller values these defaults should be probably lowered. With the default allyesconfigs have some new warnings, but I think that is all code that should be just fixed. At some point (when gcc 4.4 is released and widely used) this should obsolete make checkstack Signed-off-by:

Adrian Bunk suggested a build time check for missing MODULE_LICENSE annotation in modules. The build time check is fatal as we really want this fixed for all modules. In-tree modules should all have been fixed up by now. Signed-off-by:

RFC 2203 requires the server to drop the request if it believes the RPCSEC_GSS context is out of sequence. The problem is that we have no way on the client to know why the server dropped the request. In order to avoid spinning forever trying to resend the request, the safe approach is therefore to always invalidate the RPCSEC_GSS context on every major timeout.

Frank Bennett reported that ivtv was causing skype to crash. With help from one of their developers he showed it was a kernel problem. VIDIOCGCAP copies a name into a fixed length buffer - ivtv uses names that are too long and does not truncate them so corrupts a few bytes of the app data area. Possibly the names also want trimming but for now this should fix the corruption case. Signed-off-by:

Apparently the kernel developers no longer consider it proper etiquette to use __FUNCTION__; everyone must instead use __func__ (even though it breaks with older compilers). And worse still, actual effort is being expended to sweep this change throughout the kernel source tree. Don't these people have better things to do? So... Completely clean out all use of __FUNCTION__ from the pvrusb2 driver (it was just in the sysfs interface). I'm not going to use __func__ either. So there. Signed-off-by:

The pvrusb2 driver was getting had by this scenario: 1. Task A calls kthread_stop() for task B. 2. Before exiting, then Task B calls kthread_stop() for task C. The problem is, kthread_stop() wants to allocate an internal resource to itself (i.e. acquire a lock), which won't be released until kthread_stop() returns. But kthread_stop() won't return until task B is dead. But task B won't die until it finishes its call to kthread_stop() for task C, and that will block waiting on the resource already allocated inside task A. Deadlock. With the pvrusb2 driver, task A is the caller to pvr_exit(), task B is the control thread run inside of pvrusb2-context.c, and task C is any worker thread run inside of pvrusb2-hdw.c. This problem got introduced by the previous threading setup change, which was itself an attempt to fix a module tear-down race (which it actually did fix). The lesson here is that a task being waited on as part of a kthread_stop() simply cannot be allow to also issue a kthread_stop() - or we make sure not to issue the enclosing kthread_stop() until we know that the inner kthread_stop() has completed first. The solution for the pvrusb2 driver is some hackish code which changes the main control thread tear down into a two step process. This then makes it possible to delay issuing the kthread_stop() on the control thread until after we know that everything has been torn down first. (And yes, we really need that kthread_stop() because it's the only way to safely guarantee that a module-referencing kernel thread has safely returned back out of the module before we finally remove the module.)

Earlier fix to handle DVB feed thread aborts was overly-aggressive. We can take better advantage of what kthread_stop() can do. This change simplifies things. Signed-off-by:

If a disconnect happens before initialization is completed, the pvrusb2 driver can accidentally touch dangling pointers. The whole initialization function must be protected by the big_lock, and once inside that lock, the initialization function should abort if it is discovered that a disconnect has already taken place.

The pvrusb2 driver - for basically forever - was not enforcing a proper module tear-down. Kernel threads are used inside the driver and all must be gone before the module can be safely removed. This changeset reimplements a chunk of pvrusb2-context.c to enforce this correctly. Unfortunately this is not a simple fix. The new implementation also cuts back on kernel thread usage; instead of there being 1 control thread per instance now it's just 1 control thread shared by all instances. (By dropping to a single thread then the module exit function can block on its shutdown and the thread itself can monitor and cleanly shut down all of the other instances first.) Signed-off-by:

Implement timed measurement of encoder operation for the first time it is run. This allows the driver to note when the encoder has been run successfully for at least 1/4 second. On top of that implement various bits to ensure that the encoder has been run once before digital streaming for OnAir devices. This is done via several core state machine tweaks. Signed-off-by:
