kbuild: create *.mod with full directory path and remove MODVERDIR

2019-07-17T17:19:31+00:00

While descending directories, Kbuild produces objects for modules, but do not link final *.ko files; it is done in the modpost. To keep track of modules, Kbuild creates a *.mod file in $(MODVERDIR) for every module it is building. Some post-processing steps read the necessary information from *.mod files. This avoids descending into directories again. This mechanism was introduced in 2003 or so. Later, commit 551559e13af1 ("kbuild: implement modules.order") added modules.order. So, we can simply read it out to know all the modules with directory paths. This is easier than parsing the first line of *.mod files. $(MODVERDIR) has a flat directory structure, that is, *.mod files are named only with base names. This is based on the assumption that the module name is unique across the tree. This assumption is really fragile. Stephen Rothwell reported a race condition caused by a module name conflict: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/13/991 In parallel building, two different threads could write to the same $(MODVERDIR)/*.mod simultaneously. Non-unique module names are the source of all kind of troubles, hence commit 3a48a91901c5 ("kbuild: check uniqueness of module names") introduced a new checker script. However, it is still fragile in the build system point of view because this race happens before scripts/modules-check.sh is invoked. If it happens again, the modpost will emit unclear error messages. To fix this issue completely, create *.mod with full directory path so that two threads never attempt to write to the same file. $(MODVERDIR) is no longer needed. Since modules with directory paths are listed in modules.order, Kbuild is still able to find *.mod files without additional descending. I also killed cmd_secanalysis; scripts/mod/sumversion.c computes MD4 hash for modules with MODULE_VERSION(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y, it occurs not only in the modpost stage, but also during directory descending, where sumversion.c may parse stale *.mod files. It would emit 'No such file or directory' warning when an object consisting a module is renamed, or when a single-obj module is turned into a multi-obj module or vice versa.

cpupower : frequency-set -r option misses the last cpu in related cpu list

2019-06-04T15:06:50+00:00

To set frequency on specific cpus using cpupower, following syntax can be used : cpupower -c #i frequency-set -f #f -r While setting frequency using cpupower frequency-set command, if we use '-r' option, it is expected to set frequency for all cpus related to cpu #i. But it is observed to be missing the last cpu in related cpu list. This patch fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: Abhishek Goel Reviewed-by: Thomas Renninger Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan
