Andreas Gruenbacher 098c5eea03 [PATCH] null-terminate over-long /proc/kallsyms symbols
Got a customer bug report (https://bugzilla.novell.com/190296) about kernel
symbols longer than 127 characters which end up in a string buffer that is
not NULL terminated, leading to garbage in /proc/kallsyms.  Using strlcpy
prevents this from happening, even though such symbols still won't come out
right.

A better fix would be to not use a fixed-size buffer, but it's probably not
worth the trouble.  (Modversion'ed symbols even have a length limit of 60.)

Arjan van de Ven f71d20e961 [PATCH] Add EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL and EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL_GPL
Temporarily add EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL and EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL_GPL.  These
will be used as a transition measure for symbols that aren't used in the
kernel and are on the way out.  When a module uses such a symbol, a warning
is printk'd at modprobe time.

The main reason for removing unused exports is size: eacho export takes
roughly between 100 and 150 bytes of kernel space in the binary.  This
patch gives users the option to immediately get this size gain via a config
option.

Jan Beulich 4552d5dc08 [PATCH] x86_64: reliable stack trace support
These are the generic bits needed to enable reliable stack traces based
on Dwarf2-like (.eh_frame) unwind information. Subsequent patches will
enable x86-64 and i386 to make use of this.

Thanks to Andi Kleen and Ingo Molnar, who pointed out several possibilities
for improvement.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 03e88ae1b1 [PATCH] fix module sysfs files reference counting
The module files, refcnt, version, and srcversion did not properly
increment the owner's module reference count, allowing the modules to
be removed while the files were open, causing oopses.

This patch fixes this, and also fixes the problem that the version and
srcversion files were not showing up, unless CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD was
enabled, which is not correct.

sparse complains about every MODULE_PARM used in a module: warning: symbol

The fix is to split declaration and initialization.  While MODULE_PARM is

Matt Domsch c988d2b284 [PATCH] modules: add version and srcversion to sysfs
This patch adds version and srcversion files to
/sys/module/${modulename} containing the version and srcversion fields
of the module's modinfo section (if present).

/sys/module/e1000
|-- srcversion
`-- version

This patch differs slightly from the version posted in January, as it
now uses the new kstrdup() call in -mm.

Why put this in sysfs?

a) Tools like DKMS, which deal with changing out individual kernel
   modules without replacing the whole kernel, can behave smarter if they
   can tell the version of a given module.  The autoinstaller feature, for
   example, which determines if your system has a "good" version of a
   driver (i.e.  if the one provided by DKMS has a newer verson than that
   provided by the kernel package installed), and to automatically compile
   and install a newer version if DKMS has it but your kernel doesn't yet
   have that version.

b) Because sysadmins manually, or with tools like DKMS, can switch out
   modules on the file system, you can't count on 'modinfo foo.ko', which
   looks at /lib/modules/${kernelver}/...  actually matching what is loaded
   into the kernel already.  Hence asking sysfs for this.

c) as the unbind-driver-from-device work takes shape, it will be
   possible to rebind a driver that's built-in (no .ko to modinfo for the
   version) to a newly loaded module.  sysfs will have the
   currently-built-in version info, for comparison.

d) tech support scripts can then easily grab the version info for what's
   running presently - a question I get often.

There has been renewed interest in this patch on linux-scsi by driver
authors.

As the idea originated from GregKH, I leave his Signed-off-by: intact,
though the implementation is nearly completely new.  Compiled and run on
x86 and x86_64.

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!
