The Debian packaging scripts created by the deb-pkg target do not pass
on the standard Debian maintainer script parameters to hook scripts,
which means that those scripts cannot tell whether they are being called
during e.g. install vs. upgrade, or removal vs. purge of the package.
As there are several variantions in how hook scripts are called from
kernel packages, we pass the parameters in the environment variable
DEB_MAINT_PARAMS rather than as extra arguments.

Jean reported that he saw one warning for each module like the one below:
WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.o (.comment.SUSE.OPTs): unexpected non-allocatable section.
The warning appeared with the improved version of the
check of the flags in the sections.
That check already ignored sections named ".comment" - but SUSE store
additional info in the comment section and has named it in a SUSE
specific way. Therefore modpost failed to ignore the section.
The fix is to extend the pattern so we ignore all sections
that start with the name ".comment.".

The powerpc kernel always requires an Open Firmware like device tree
to supply device information. On systems without OF, this comes from
a flattened device tree blob. This blob is usually generated by dtc,
a tool which compiles a text description of the device tree into the
flattened format used by the kernel. Sometimes, the bootwrapper makes
small changes to the pre-compiled device tree blob (e.g. filling in
the size of RAM). To do this it uses the libfdt library.
Because these are only used on powerpc, the code for both these tools
is included under arch/powerpc/boot (these were imported and are
periodically updated from the upstream dtc tree).
However, the microblaze architecture, currently being prepared for
merging to mainline also uses dtc to produce device tree blobs. A few
other archs have also mentioned some interest in using dtc.
Therefore, this patch moves dtc and libfdt from arch/powerpc into
scripts, where it can be used by any architecture.
The vast bulk of this patch is a literal move, the rest is adjusting
the various Makefiles to use dtc and libfdt correctly from their new
locations.

When you put
.section ".foo"
in an assembly file instead of
.section "foo", "ax"
, one of the possible symptoms is that modpost will see an
ld-generated section name ".foo.1" in section_rel() or section_rela().
But this heuristic has two problems: it will miss a bad section that
has no relocations, and it will incorrectly flag many gcc-generated
sections as bad when compiling with -ffunction-sections
-fdata-sections.
On mips it fixes a lot of bogus warnings with gcc 4.4.0 lije this one:
WARNING: crypto/cryptd.o (.text.T.349): unexpected section name.
So instead of checking whether the section name matches a particular
pattern, we directly check for a missing SHF_ALLOC in the section
flags.

While building the kernel, we end-up calling modpost with -K and -M
options for the same file (Modules.markers). This is resulting in
modpost's main function calling read_markers() and then write_markers() on
the same file.
We then have read_markers() mmap'ing the file, and writer_markers()
opening that same file for writing.
The issue is that read_markers() exits without munmap'ing the file and is
as a matter holding a reference on Modules.markers. When write_markers()
is opening that very same file for writing, we still have a reference on
it and cygwin (Windows?) is then making fopen() fail with EPERM.
Calling release_file() before exiting read_markers() clears that reference
(and memory leak) and fopen() then succeeds.
Tested on both cygwin (1.3.22) and Linux. Also ran modpost within
valgrind on Linux to make sure that the munmap'ed file was not accessed
after read_markers()

Following patch introduce support for setting options
to gcc that has effect for current directory and all
subdirectories.
The typical use case are an architecture or a subsystem that
decide to cover all files with -Werror.
Today alpha, mips and sparc uses -Werror in almost all their
Makefile- with subdir-ccflag-y it is now simpler to do so
as only the top-level directories needs to be covered.
Likewise if we decide to cover a full subsystem such
as net/ with -Werror this is done by adding a single
line to net/Makefile.

When gen_initramfs_list is used to generate make dependencies, it
includes symbolic links, for which make tracks the link target. Any
change to that target will cause an initramfs rebuild, even if the
symlink points to something outside of the initramfs directory.
If the target happens to be /tmp, the rebuild occurs for each kernel
build, since gen_initramfs_list uses mktemp...
Proposed way to fix it is to omit symbolic links from generated
dependencies, but this has a small drawback: changing perm/owner on a
symlink will go unnoticed.

Massimo Maiurana reported (slightly edited):
=====
In latest 2.6.29 "make update-po-config" fails at msguniq invocation
with an "invalid control sequence" error.
The offending string is the following, and it's located in
drivers/staging/panel/Kconfig:72:
"'\e[L' which are specific to the LCD, and a few ANSI codes. The"
looks to me like gettext expects strings in printf format, so in
this case it thinks "\e" is a control sequence but doesn't recognise
it as a valid one.
A valid solution would be to tell kxgettext to automatically
escape this kind of strings in the */config.pot he produces, so that
msguniq would not complain.

This patch implements the suggested escaping.

With CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, we version 'struct module' using a dummy
export, but other things matter too:
1) 'struct modversion_info' determines the layout of the __versions section,
2) 'struct kernel_param' determines the layout of the __params section,
3) 'struct kernel_symbol' determines __ksymtab*.
4) 'struct marker' determines __markers.
5) 'struct tracepoint' determines __tracepoints.
So we rename 'struct_module' to 'module_layout' and include these in
the signature. Now it's general we can add others later on without
confusion.
