VIDEO: Correct use of request_region/request_mem_region

2009-12-02T23:58:32Z

request_region should be used with release_region, not request_mem_region. Geert Uytterhoeven pointed out that in the case of drivers/video/gbefb.c, the problem is actually the other way around; request_mem_region should be used instead of request_region. The semantic patch that finds/fixes this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r1@ expression start; @@ request_region(start,...) @b1@ expression r1.start; @@ request_mem_region(start,...) @depends on !b1@ expression r1.start; expression E; @@ - release_mem_region + release_region (start,E) // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

modules: don't export section names of empty sections via sysfs

2009-12-02T23:38:25Z

On the parisc architecture we face for each and every loaded kernel module this kernel "badness warning": sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/module/ac97_bus/sections/.text' Badness at fs/sysfs/dir.c:487 Reason for that is, that on parisc all kernel modules do have multiple .text sections due to the usage of the -ffunction-sections compiler flag which is needed to reach all jump targets on this platform. An objdump on such a kernel module gives: Sections: Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn 0 .note.gnu.build-id 00000024 00000000 00000000 00000034 2**2 CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, DATA 1 .text 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000058 2**0 CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE 2 .text.ac97_bus_match 0000001c 00000000 00000000 00000058 2**2 CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE 3 .text 00000000 00000000 00000000 000000d4 2**0 CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE ... Since the .text sections are empty (size of 0 bytes) and won't be loaded by the kernel module loader anyway, I don't see a reason why such sections need to be listed under /sys/module//sections/ either. The attached patch does solve this issue by not exporting section names which are empty.
