The code is derived from arch/powerpc.\n\nThe advantages of having common BUG handling are:\n - consistent BUG reporting across architectures\n - shared implementation of out-of-line file/line data\n - implement CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE consistently\n\nThis means that in inline impact of BUG is just the illegal instruction\nitself, which is an improvement for i386 and x86-64.\n\nA BUG is represented in the instruction stream as an illegal instruction,\nwhich has file/line information associated with it. This extra information is\nstored in the __bug_table section in the ELF file.\n\nWhen the kernel gets an illegal instruction, it first confirms it might\npossibly be from a BUG (ie, in kernel mode, the right illegal instruction).\nIt then calls report_bug(). This searches __bug_table for a matching\ninstruction pointer, and if found, prints the corresponding file/line\ninformation. If report_bug() determines that it wasn\u0027t a BUG which caused the\ntrap, it returns BUG_TRAP_TYPE_NONE.\n\nSome architectures (powerpc) implement WARN using the same mechanism; if the\nillegal instruction was the result of a WARN, then report_bug(Q) returns\nCONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE; otherwise it returns BUG_TRAP_TYPE_BUG.\n\nlib/bug.c keeps a list of loaded modules which can be searched for __bug_table\nentries. The architecture must call\nmodule_bug_finalize()/module_bug_cleanup() from its corresponding\nmodule_finalize/cleanup functions.\n\nUnsetting CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE will reduce the kernel size by some amount.\nAt the very least, filename and line information will not be recorded for each\nbut, but architectures may decide to store no extra information per BUG at\nall.\n\nUnfortunately, gcc doesn\u0027t have a general way to mark an asm() as noreturn, so\narchitectures will generally have to include an infinite loop (or similar) in\nthe BUG code, so that gcc knows execution won\u0027t continue beyond that point.\ngcc does have a __builtin_trap() operator which may be useful to achieve the\nsame effect, unfortunately it cannot be used to actually implement the BUG\nitself, because there\u0027s no way to get the instruction\u0027s address for use in\ngenerating the __bug_table entry.\n\n[randy.dunlap@oracle.com: Handle BUG\u003dn, GENERIC_BUG\u003dn to prevent build errors]\n[bunk@stusta.de: include/linux/bug.h must always #include \u003clinux/module.h]\nSigned-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge \u003cjeremy@goop.org\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@muc.de\u003e\nCc: Hugh Dickens \u003chugh@veritas.com\u003e\nCc: Michael Ellerman \u003cmichael@ellerman.id.au\u003e\nCc: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\nCc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt \u003cbenh@kernel.crashing.org\u003e\nCc: Rusty Russell \u003crusty@rustcorp.com.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Adrian Bunk \u003cbunk@stusta.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f6a570333e554b48ad589e7137c77c57809eee81", "tree": "68dd6d5c8fe537a19a84a4189202f5cf70925c17", "parents": [ "2b5f6dcce5bf94b9b119e9ed8d537098ec61c3d2" ], "author": { "name": "Al Viro", "email": "viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk", "time": "Wed Oct 18 01:47:25 2006 -0400" }, "committer": { "name": "Al Viro", "email": "viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk", "time": "Mon Dec 04 02:00:22 2006 -0500" }, "message": "[PATCH] severing module.h-\u003esched.h\n\nSigned-off-by: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "e17e0f51aeea4e59c7e450a1c0f26605b91c1260", "tree": "eb177cbfe18d433ab115222bfe53f1098de844c2", "parents": [ "c957b32406b73ed66d0f20ebab0cab25c848105d" ], "author": { "name": "Kay Sievers", "email": "kay.sievers@vrfy.org", "time": "Fri Nov 24 12:15:25 2006 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Greg Kroah-Hartman", "email": "gregkh@suse.de", "time": "Fri Dec 01 14:52:02 2006 -0800" }, "message": "Driver core: show drivers in /sys/module/\n\nShow the drivers, which belong to the module:\n $ ls -l /sys/module/usbcore/drivers/\n hub -\u003e ../../../bus/usb/drivers/hub\n usb -\u003e ../../../bus/usb/drivers/usb\n usbfs -\u003e ../../../bus/usb/drivers/usbfs\n\nSigned-off-by: Kay Sievers \u003ckay.sievers@vrfy.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman \u003cgregkh@suse.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "fa3ba2e81ea23416272a22009bba95954c81969c", "tree": "cd1ab15dcf1130a4920ca9396cb91aaff4b0dcf6", "parents": [ "3719bc5c22c9025bf1c909fe8b527ebf1de9a153" ], "author": { "name": "Florin Malita", "email": "fmalita@gmail.com", "time": "Wed Oct 11 01:21:48 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Wed Oct 11 11:14:21 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] fix Module taint flags listing in Oops/panic\n\nModule taint flags listing in Oops/panic has a couple of issues:\n\n* taint_flags() doesn\u0027t null-terminate the buffer after printing the flags\n\n* per-module taints are only set if the kernel is not already tainted\n (with that particular flag) \u003d\u003e only the first offending module gets its\n taint info correctly updated\n\nSome additional changes:\n\n* \u0027license_gplok\u0027 is no longer needed -

The autoinstaller feature, for\n example, which determines if your system has a \"good\" version of a\n driver (i.e. if the one provided by DKMS has a newer verson than that\n provided by the kernel package installed), and to automatically compile\n and install a newer version if DKMS has it but your kernel doesn\u0027t yet\n have that version.\n\nb) Because sysadmins manually, or with tools like DKMS, can switch out\n modules on the file system, you can\u0027t count on \u0027modinfo foo.ko\u0027, which\n looks at /lib/modules/${kernelver}/... actually matching what is loaded\n into the kernel already. Hence asking sysfs for this.\n\nc) as the unbind-driver-from-device work takes shape, it will be\n possible to rebind a driver that\u0027s built-in (no .ko to modinfo for the\n version) to a newly loaded module. sysfs will have the\n currently-built-in version info, for comparison.\n\nd) tech support scripts can then easily grab the version info for what\u0027s\n running presently - a question I get often.\n\nThere has been renewed interest in this patch on linux-scsi by driver\nauthors.\n\nAs the idea originated from GregKH, I leave his Signed-off-by: intact,\nthough the implementation is nearly completely new.
