scripts: Make git commit info always present

2012-08-20T23:25:45+00:00

LOCALVERSION_AUTO is set by default.
And git commit will be part of the version.
E.g. "3.1.10-g0fe9b4a" where 0fe9b4a is the commit.

The version will appear in kpanic logs.
It would help developers to know the exact kernel version.

But a tagged commit (main-ics-2012.06.07-A5) will lead to no git info.
E.g. "3.1.10"
This patch will solve the issue.

scripts/Kbuild.include: Fix portability problem of "echo -e"

2012-07-23T17:39:14+00:00

"echo -e" is a GNU extension. When cross-compiling the kernel on a
BSD-like operating system (Mac OS X in my case), this doesn't work.

One could install a GNU version of echo, put that in the $PATH before
the system echo and use "/usr/bin/env echo", but the solution with
printf is simpler.

Since it is no disadvantage on Linux, I hope that gets accepted even if
cross-compiling the Linux kernel on another Unix operating system is
quite a rare use case.

kbuild: Fix help text not displayed in choice option.

2011-11-11T17:44:10+00:00

commit 3f198dfee49d2e9c30583c62b0c79286c78c7b44 upstream.

Help text under choice menu is never displayed because it does not have
symbol name associated with it, however many kconfigs have help text
under choice, assuming that it will be displayed when user selects help.
for example in Kconfig if we have:
choice
        prompt "Choice"
        ---help---
           HELP TEXT ...

config A
        bool "A"

config B
        bool "B"

endchoice

Without this patch "HELP TEXT" is not displayed when user selects help
option when "Choice" is highlighted from menuconfig or xconfig or
gconfig.

This patch changes the logic in menu_get_ext_help to display help for
cases which dont have symbol names like choice.

kconfig: Introduce IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN() and IS_MODULE()

2011-07-29T19:53:30+00:00

Replace the config_is_*() macros with a variant that allows for grepping
for usage of CONFIG_* options in the code. Usage:

  if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NUMA))

or

  #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NUMA)

The IS_ENABLED() macro evaluates to 1 if the argument is set (to either 'y'
or 'm'), IS_BUILTIN() tests if the option is 'y' and IS_MODULE() test if
the option is 'm'. Only boolean and tristate options are supported.

  ...

Did this as a merge because of (trivial) conflicts in
 - Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt
 - arch/xtensa/include/asm/uaccess.h
that were just easier to fix up in the merge than in the patch series.

checkpatch.pl: update $logFunctions

2011-07-26T03:57:16+00:00

Previous behavior allowed only alphabetic prefixes like pr_info to exceed
the 80 column line length limit.

ath6kl wants to add a digit into the prefix, so allow numbers as well as
digits in the _ printks.

__ratelimited and __once and WARN_RATELIMIT
and WARN_ONCE may now exceed 80 cols.

Add missing _printk type for completeness.

Some patches are sent in using ISO-8859 or even Windows codepage 1252.

Make checkpatch accept these by default and only emit the "Invalid UTF-8"
