Sam Ravnborg	62070fa42c	kbuild: kill trailing whitespace in modpost & friends ... Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>	19 years ago
Sam Ravnborg	b39927cf4c	kbuild: check for section mismatch during modpost stage ... Section mismatch is identified as references to .init* sections from non .init sections. And likewise references to .exit.* sections outside .exit sections. .init.* sections are discarded after a module is initialized and references to .init.* sections are oops candidates. .exit.* sections are discarded when a module is built-in and thus references to .exit are also oops candidates. The checks were possible to do using 'make buildcheck' which called the two perl scripts: reference_discarded.pl and reference_init.pl. This patch just moves the same functionality inside modpost and the scripts are then obsoleted. They will though be kept for a while so users can do double checks - but note that some .o files are skipped by the perl scripts so result is not 1:1. All credit for the concept goes to Keith Owens who implemented the original perl scrips - this patch just moves it to modpost. Compared to the perl script the implmentation in modpost will be run for each kernel build - thus catching the error much sooner, but the downside is that the individual .o file are not always identified.

Sam Ravnborg	cb80514d9c	kbuild: use warn()/fatal() consistent in modpost ... modpost.c provides warn() and fatal() - so use them all over the place. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>	19 years ago
Linus Torvalds	1da177e4c3	Linux-2.6.12-rc2 ... Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!	20 years ago
