Add a new Coccinelle script to identify places where PTR_ERR() is used
in print functions and suggest using the %pe format specifier instead.
For printing error pointers (i.e., a pointer for which IS_ERR() is true)
%pe will print a symbolic error name (e.g,. -EINVAL), opposed to the raw
errno (e.g,. -22) produced by PTR_ERR().
It also makes the code cleaner by saving a redundant call to PTR_ERR().
The script supports context, report, and org modes.
Example transformation:
printk("Error: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(ptr)); // Before
printk("Error: %pe\n", ptr); // After

During kernel option migrations (e.g. CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI),
existing .config files need to maintain backward compatibility while
preventing deprecated options from appearing in newly generated
configurations. This is challenging with existing Kconfig mechanisms
because:
1. Simply removing old options breaks existing .config files.
2. Manually listing an option as "deprecated" leaves it needlessly
visible and still writes them to new .config files.
3. Using any method to remove visibility (.e.g no 'prompt', 'if n',
etc) prevents the option from being processed at all.
Add a "transitional" attribute that creates symbols which are:
- Processed during configuration (can influence other symbols' defaults)
- Hidden from user menus (no prompts appear)
- Omitted from newly written .config files (gets migrated)
- Restricted to only having help sections (no defaults, selects, etc)
making it truly just a "prior value pass-through" option.
The transitional syntax requires a type argument and prevents type
redefinition:
config NEW_OPTION
bool "New option"
default OLD_OPTION
config OLD_OPTION
bool
transitional
help
Transitional config for OLD_OPTION migration.
This allows seamless migration: olddefconfig processes existing
CONFIG_OLD_OPTION=y settings to enable CONFIG_NEW_OPTION=y, while
CONFIG_OLD_OPTION is omitted from newly generated .config files.
Added positive and negative testing via "testconfig" make target.

The issue occurred when the test framework attempted to write to stdin

Alexey Gladkov says:
The modules.builtin.modinfo file is used by userspace (kmod to be specific) to
get information about builtin modules. Among other information about the module,
information about module aliases is stored. This is very important to determine
that a particular modalias will be handled by a module that is inside the
kernel.
There are several mechanisms for creating modalias for modules:
The first is to explicitly specify the MODULE_ALIAS of the macro. In this case,
the aliases go into the '.modinfo' section of the module if it is compiled
separately or into vmlinux.o if it is builtin into the kernel.
The second is the use of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE followed by the use of the
modpost utility. In this case, vmlinux.o no longer has this information and
does not get it into modules.builtin.modinfo.
For example:
$ modinfo pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30
modinfo: ERROR: Module pci:v00008086d0000A36Dsv00001043sd00008694bc0Csc03i30 not found.
$ modinfo xhci_pci
name: xhci_pci
filename: (builtin)
license: GPL
file: drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci
description: xHCI PCI Host Controller Driver
The builtin module is missing alias "pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc0Csc03i30*" which will be
generated by modpost if the module is built separately.
To fix this it is necessary to add the generated by modpost modalias to
modules.builtin.modinfo. Fortunately modpost already generates .vmlinux.export.c
for exported symbols. It is possible to add `.modinfo` for builtin modules and
modify the build system so that `.modinfo` section is extracted from the
intermediate vmlinux after modpost is executed.

For some modules, modalias is generated using the modpost utility and
the section is added to the module file.
When a module is added inside vmlinux, modpost does not generate
modalias for such modules and the information is lost.
As a result kmod (which uses modules.builtin.modinfo in userspace)
cannot determine that modalias is handled by a builtin kernel module.
$ cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/modalias

Missing modalias "pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc0Csc03i30*" which will be generated by

To fix this it is necessary to generate the same modalias for vmlinux as
for the individual modules. Fortunately '.vmlinux.export.o' is already
generated from which '.modinfo' can be extracted in the same way as for
vmlinux.o.

At this point, if a symbol is compiled as part of the kernel,
information about which module the symbol belongs to is lost.
To save this it is possible to add the module name to the alias name.

With lines having a symbol to decode, the script was only trying to
preserve the alignment for the timestamps, but not the rest, nor when the
caller was set (CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER=y).
With this sample ...
[ 52.080924] Call Trace:
[ 52.080926] <TASK>
[ 52.080931] dump_stack_lvl+0x6f/0xb0
... the script was producing the following output:
[ 52.080924] Call Trace:
[ 52.080926] <TASK>
[ 52.080931] dump_stack_lvl (arch/x86/include/asm/irqflags.h:19)
(dump_stack_lvl is no longer aligned with <TASK>: one missing space)
With this other sample ...
[ 52.080924][ T48] Call Trace:
[ 52.080926][ T48] <TASK>
[ 52.080931][ T48] dump_stack_lvl+0x6f/0xb0
... the script was producing the following output:
[ 52.080924][ T48] Call Trace:
[ 52.080926][ T48] <TASK>
[ 52.080931][ T48] dump_stack_lvl (arch/x86/include/asm/irqflags.h:19)
(the misalignment is clearer here)
That's because the script had a workaround for CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y only,
see the previous comment called "Format timestamps with tabs".
To always preserve spaces, they need to be recorded along the words. That
is what is now done with the new 'spaces' array.
Some notes:
- 'extglob' is needed only for this operation, and that's why it is set
in a dedicated subshell.
- 'read' is used with '-r' not to treat a <backslash> character in any
special way, e.g. when followed by a space.
- When a word is removed from the 'words' array, the corresponding space
needs to be removed from the 'spaces' array as well.
With the last sample, we now have:
[ 52.080924][ T48] Call Trace:
[ 52.080926][ T48] <TASK>
[ 52.080931][ T48] dump_stack_lvl (arch/x86/include/asm/irqflags.h:19)

A few patches slightly improving the output generated by
decode_stacktrace.sh.
This patch (of 3):
Lines having a symbol to decode might not always have info after this
symbol. It means ${info_str} might not be set, but it will always be
printed after a space, causing trailing whitespaces.
That's a detail, but when the output is opened with an editor marking
these trailing whitespaces, that's a bit disturbing. It is easy to remove
them by printing this variable with a space only if it is set.
While at it, do the same with ${module} and print everything in one line.

Python 2.6 and 3.0+, its coding style now follows a more
modern standard, having tabs replaced by a 4-spaces
indent, passing autopep8, black and pylint.
The code allows using a pythonic way to enter/exit a python
code, e.g. it now supports:
with JobserverExec() as jobserver:
jobserver.run(sys.argv[1:])
With the new code, the __exit__() function should ensure
that the jobserver slot will be closed at the end, even if
something bad happens somewhere.

The regex in this block of code makes no sense, and a quick test shows that
it never matches anything; simply delete the code.

Add some more comments to dump_function(), add some comments, and trim out
an unneeded duplicate output_declaration() call.

The logic to handle macros is split in dump_function(); bring it all
together into a single place and add a comment saying what's going on.
Remove the unneeded is_define_proto variable, and tighten up the code
a bit.

The regexes for the parsing of function prototypes were more complicated
than they needed to be and difficult to understand -- at least, I spent a
fair amount of time bashing my head against them. Simplify them, and add
some documentation comments as well.

The is_define_proto case in dump_function() uses a regex with an empty
capture group - () - that has no use; just take it out.
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
The "name" regex in dump_function() includes both the tilde and colon
characters, but neither has any place in function prototypes. Remove the
characters, after which the regex simplifies to "\w+"
No output changes.

Both functions and structs are passed through a set of regex-based
transforms, but the two were structured differently, despite being the same
thing. Create a utility function to apply transformations and use it in
both cases.

Move these definitions to file level, where they are executed once, and
don't clutter the function itself.

The handling of untyped parameters involved a number of redundant tests;
restructure the code to remove them and be more compact.
No output changes.

The special case for __cacheline_group_begin/end() can be handled by just
adding another pattern to the struct_prefixes, eliminating the need for a
special case in push_parameter().
One change is that these annotations no longer appear in the rendered
output, just like all the other annotations that we clean out.

In order to support LKMM atomics in Rust, add rust_helper_* for atomic
APIs. These helpers ensure the implementation of LKMM atomics in Rust is
the same as in C. This could save the maintenance burden of having two
similar atomic implementations in asm.

rust: use the new name Location::file_as_c_str() in Rust >= 1.91.0
Now that kernel-include directive supports parsing data
structs directly, we can finally get rid of the horrible hack
we added to support parsing media uAPI symbols.
As a side effect, Documentation/output doesn't have anymore
media auto-generated .rst files on it.
