Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window.
The Sphinx transition is still creating a fair amount of work. Here we
have a number of fixes and, importantly, a proper PDF output solution,
thanks to Jani Nikula, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Markus Heiser.
I've started a couple of new books: a driver API book (based on the
old device-drivers.tmpl) and a development tools book. Both are meant
to show how we can integrate together our existing documentation into
a more coherent and accessible whole. It involves moving some stuff
around and formatting changes, but, I think, the results are worth it.
The good news is that most of our existing Documentation/*.txt files
are *almost* in RST format already; the amount of messing around
required is minimal.
And, of course, there's the usual set of updates, typo fixes, and
more"

pm_runtime.cocci starts with one rule that searches for a variety of
functions calls, followed by various rules that report errors. Previously,
the only connection between the first rule and the rest was to check that
the first rule had matched somewhere. Change the rules to propagate a
position from the first rule to the others, to make sure that the sites
reported on are the same as the sites that were identified as having the
relevant functions.

Every so often, with a special config or a architecture change, running
function or function_graph tracing can cause the machien to hard reboot,
crash, or simply hard lockup. There's some functions in the function graph
tracer that can not be traced otherwise it causes the function tracer to
recurse before the recursion protection mechanisms are in place.
When this occurs, using the dynamic ftrace featuer that allows limiting what
actually gets traced can be used to bisect down to the problem function.
This adds a script that helps with this process in the scripts/tracing
directory, called ftrace-bisect.sh
The set up is to read all the functions that can be traced from
available_filter_functions into a file (full_file). Then run this script
passing it the full_file and a "test_file" and "non_test_file", where the
test_file will be add to set_ftrace_filter. What ftarce_bisect.sh does, is
to copy half of the functions in full_file into the test_file and the other
half into the non_test_file. This way, one can cat the test_file into the
set_ftrace_filter functions and only test the functions that are in that
file. If it works, then we run the process again after copying non_test_file
to full_file and repeating the process. If the system crashed, then the bad
function is in the test_file and after a reboot, the test_file becomes the
new full_file in the next iteration.
When we get down to a single function in the full_file, then
ftrace_bisect.sh will report that as the bad function.
Full documentation of how to use this simple script is within the script
file itself.

Due to our compiler include directives, the build pathnames for header
files often end up being of the form "$srcdir/./include/linux/xyz.h",
which ends up having that extra "." path component after the build base
in it.
Teach faddr2line to skip that too, to make code generated in inline
functions in header files match the filename for the regular C files.
Rabin Vincent pointed out that I can't make a stricter regexp match by
using the " at " prefix for the pathname, because that ends up being
locale-dependent. But this does require that the path match be preceded
by a space, to make it a bit more strict (that matters mainly if we
didn't find any base_dir at all, and we only end up with the "./" part
of the match)

ld -r is an incremental link used to create built-in.o files in build
subdirectories. It produces relocatable object files containing all
its input files, and these are are then pulled together and relocated
in the final link. Aside from the bloat, this constrains the final
link relocations, which has bitten large powerpc builds with
unresolvable relocations in the final link.
Alan Modra has recommended the kernel use thin archives for linking.
This is an alternative and means that the linker has more information
available to it when it links the kernel.
This patch enables a config option architectures can select, which
causes all built-in.o files to be built as thin archives. built-in.o
files in subdirectories do not get symbol table or index attached,
which improves speed and size. The final link pass creates a
built-in.o archive in the root output directory which includes the
symbol table and index. The linker then uses takes this file to link.
The --whole-archive linker option is required, because the linker now
has visibility to every individual object file, and it will otherwise
just completely avoid including those without external references
(consider a file with EXPORT_SYMBOL or initcall or hardware exceptions
as its only entry points). The traditional built works "by luck" as
built-in.o files are large enough that they're going to get external
references. However this optimisation is unpredictable for the kernel
(due to above external references), ineffective at culling unused, and
costly because the .o files have to be searched for references.
Superior alternatives for link-time culling should be used instead.
Build characteristics for inclink vs thinarc, on a small powerpc64le
pseries VM with a modest .config:
inclink thinarc
sizes
vmlinux 15 618 680 15 625 028
sum of all built-in.o 56 091 808 1 054 334
sum excluding root built-in.o 151 430
find -name built-in.o | xargs rm ; time make vmlinux
real 22.772s 21.143s
user 13.280s 13.430s
sys 4.310s 2.750s
- Final kernel pulled in only about 6K more, which shows how
ineffective the object file culling is.
- Build performance looks improved due to less pagecache activity.
On IO constrained systems it could be a bigger win.
- Build size saving is significant.
Side note, the toochain understands archives, so there's some tricks,
$ ar t built-in.o # list all files you linked with
$ size built-in.o # and their sizes
$ objdump -d built-in.o # disassembly (unrelocated) with filenames

When using a typedef function like this one:
typedef bool v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, void * handle);
The Sphinx C domain expects it to create a c:type: reference,
as that's the way it creates the type references when parsing
a c:function:: declaration.
So, a declaration like:
.. c:function:: bool v4l2_valid_dv_timings (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, const struct v4l2_dv_timings_cap * cap, v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc fnc, void * fnc_handle)
Will create a cross reference for :c:type:`v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc`.
So, when outputting such typedefs in RST format, we need to handle
this special case, as otherwise it will produce those warnings:
./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:43: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc
./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:60: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc
./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:81: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc
So, change the kernel-doc script to produce a RST output for the
above typedef as:
.. c:type:: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc
**Typedef**: timings check callback
**Syntax**
``bool v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, void * handle);``

The algorithm that extracts the version number of the utility being

currently implemented in awk. The code is used throughout the script,
making its use repetative. The proposed implementation confines the
algorithm in question to a function, which makes the script easier to
read overall, as well as considerably reduces the number of lines of
code. Every attempt has been made to retain the look and the format
generated by the current implementation.

Right now, for a struct, kernel-doc produces the following output:
.. c:type:: struct v4l2_prio_state
stores the priority states
**Definition**
::
struct v4l2_prio_state {
atomic_t prios[4];
};
**Members**
``atomic_t prios[4]``
array with elements to store the array priorities
Putting a member name in verbatim and adding a continuation line
causes the LaTeX output to generate something like:
item[atomic_t prios\[4\]] array with elements to store the array priorities
Everything inside "item" is non-breakable, with may produce
lines bigger than the column width.
Also, for function members, like:
int (* rx_read) (struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u8 *buf, size_t count,ssize_t *num);
It puts the name of the member at the end, like:
int (*) (struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u8 *buf, size_t count,ssize_t *num) read
With is very confusing.
The best is to highlight what really matters: the member name.
is a secondary information.
So, change kernel-doc, for it to produce the output on a different way:
**Members**
``prios[4]``
array with elements to store the array priorities
Also, as the type is not part of LaTeX "item[]", LaTeX will split it into
multiple lines, if needed.
So, both LaTeX/PDF and HTML outputs will look good.
It should be noticed, however, that the way Sphinx LaTeX output handles
things like:
Foo
bar
is different than the HTML output. On HTML, it will produce something
like:
**Foo**
bar
While, on LaTeX, it puts both foo and bar at the same line, like:
**Foo** bar

Do you think kernel build is 100% dominated by gcc? You are wrong!
One small utility called "fixdep" consistently manages to sneak into
profile's first page (unless you have small monitor of course).
The choke point is this clever code:
for (; m < end; m++) {
if (*m == INT_CONF) { p = (char *) m ; goto conf; }
if (*m == INT_ONFI) { p = (char *) m-1; goto conf; }
if (*m == INT_NFIG) { p = (char *) m-2; goto conf; }
if (*m == INT_FIG_) { p = (char *) m-3; goto conf; }
4 branches per 4 characters is not fast.
Use strstr(3), so that SSE2 etc can be used.
With this patch, fixdep is so deep at the bottom, it is hard to find it.

Collect the symbols exported by anything that goes into lib.a and
add an empty object (lib-exports.o) with explicit undefs for each
of those to obj-y.
That allows to relax the rules regarding the use of exports in
lib-* objects - right now an object with export can be in lib-*
only if we are guaranteed that there always will be users in
built-in parts of the tree, otherwise it needs to be in obj-*.
As the result, we have an unholy mix of lib- and obj- in lib/Makefile
and (especially) in arch/*/lib/Makefile. Moreover, a change in
generic part of the kernel can lead to mysteriously missing exports
on some configs. With this change we don't have to worry about
that anymore.
One side effect is that built-in.o now pulls everything with exports
from the corresponding lib.a (if such exists). That's exactly what
we want for linking vmlinux and fortunately it's almost the only thing
built-in.o is used in. arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/bootloader is the only
exception and it's easy to get rid of now - just turn everything in
arch/ia64/lib into lib-* and don't bother with arch/ia64/lib/built-in.o
anymore.

For more targeted fuzzing, it's better to disable kernel-wide
instrumentation and instead enable it on a per-subsystem basis. This
follows the pattern of UBSAN and allows you to compile in the kcov
driver without instrumenting the whole kernel.
To instrument a part of the kernel, you can use either
# for a single file in the current directory
KCOV_INSTRUMENT_filename.o := y
or
# for all the files in the current directory (excluding subdirectories)
KCOV_INSTRUMENT := y
or
# (same as above)
ccflags-y += $(CFLAGS_KCOV)
or
# for all the files in the current directory (including subdirectories)
subdir-ccflags-y += $(CFLAGS_KCOV)

Signoff was not checked if the filename is '-', indicating reading the
patch from stdin. Commands such as the below would not warn about a
missing signoff, because the patch filename is '-'. This change allows
checkpatch to warn about a missing signoff, even if the input filename
is '-', but only if the patch has a commit message.
git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl -
A more common use of checkpatch with stdin is for piping git diff
through checkpatch. The diff output would not contain a commit message,
and therefore it would not contain a signoff line. For this common use
case, a warning should not be printed about the missing signoff. With
this change we will only warn about a missing signoff if the input
contains a commit message.
git diff | scripts/checkpatch.pl -
Before this patch, a workaround for the first command was to refer to
stdin by a name other than '-'. The workaround is not an elegant
solution, because elsewhere checkpatch uses the fact that filename
equals '-', such as in setting '$vname' to 'Your patch' for stdin. The
command below would report "/dev/stdin has style problems" instead of
"Your patch has style problems."
git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl /dev/stdin
