This change restricts the check for the for the FSF address in the GPL copyright statement so that it only flags the address, not the references to the gnu.org/licenses URL which appears to be used in numerous drivers. The idea is to still allow some reference to an external copy of the GPL in the event that files are copied out of the kernel tree without the COPYING file. So for example this statement will still return an error: You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA. However, this statement will not return an error after this patch: You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program.

switch case statements missing a break statement are an unfortunately common error. e.g.: commit 4a2c94c9 ("HID: kye: Add report fixup for Genius Manticore Keyboard") case blocks should end in a break/return/goto/continue. If a fall-through is used, it should have a comment showing that it is intentional. Ideally that comment should be something like: "/* fall-through */" Add a test to look for missing break statements. This looks only at the context lines before an inserted case so it's possible to have false positives when the context contains a close brace and the break is before the brace and not part of the patch context. Looking at recent patches, this is a pretty rare occurrence. The normal kernel style uses a break as the last line of the previous block. Signed-off-by:

get_maintainer currently uses "Signed-off-by" style lines to find interested parties to send patches to when the MAINTAINERS file does not have a specific section entry with a matching file pattern. Add statistics for commit authors and lines added and deleted to the information provided by --rolestats. These statistics are also emitted whenever --rolestats and --git are selected even when there is a specified maintainer. This can have the effect of expanding the number of people that are shown as possible "maintainers" of a particular file because "authors", "added_lines", and "removed_lines" are also used as criterion for the --max-maintainers option separate from the "commit_signers". The first "--git-max-maintainers" values of each criterion are emitted. Any "ties" are not shown.

"make headers_check" warns about soundcard.h for (at least) five years now: [...]/usr/include/linux/soundcard.h:1054: userspace cannot reference function or variable defined in the kernel We're apparently stuck with providing OSSlib-3.8 compatibility, so let's special case this declaration just to silence it. Notes: 0) Support for OSSlib post 3.8 was already removed in commit 43a99076 ("sound: Remove OSSlib stuff from linux/soundcard.h"). Five years have passed since that commit: do people still care about OSSlib-3.8? If not, quite a bit of code could be remove from soundcard.h (and probably ultrasound.h). 2) By the way, what is actually meant by: It is no longer possible to actually link against OSSlib with this header, but we still provide these macros for programs using them. Doesn't that mean compatibility to OSSlib isn't even useful? 3) Anyhow, a previous discussion soundcard.h, which led to that commit, starts at https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/20/349 . 4) And, yes, I sneaked in a whitespace fix.

This data is transformed into a device timeline and a callgraph to give a quick and detailed view of which devices and callbacks are taking the most time in suspend/resume.

Some versions of ARM64 GCC which do support asm goto, do not support the %c specifier. Since we need the %c to support jump labels on ARM64, detect that too in the asm goto detection script to avoid build errors with these versions. Acked-by:

setlocalversion script was testing the presence of .git directory in order to find out if git is used as SCM to track the current kernel project. However in some cases, .git is not a directory but can be a file: when the kernel is a git submodule part of a git super project for example. This patch just fixes this by using 'git rev-parse --show-cdup' to check that the current directory is the kernel git topdir. This has the advantage to not test and rely on git internal infrastructure directly. Signed-off-by:

Note that this can happen if the kernel-doc notation that is being parsed is not actually a function prototype; maybe it's a struct or something else, so I added "function" to the warning message to try to make it clearer that scripts/kernel-doc is looking for a function prototype here.

It's useful to know which functions it was looking for, so print them out in this case. Also do the same for '!Pfile doc-section' The same error also happens when using '!Efile' when some exported functions aren't documented (in the same file.)

When expert configuration option(CONFIG_EXPERT) is enabled, menuconfig offers a choice of compression algorithm to compress initial ramfs image; This choice is stored into CONFIG_RD_* variables. But usr/Makefile uses earlier INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_* macros to build initial ramfs file. Since none of them is defined, resulting 'initramfs_data.cpio' file remains un-compressed. This patch updates the Makefile to use CONFIG_RD_* variables and adds support for LZ4 compression algorithm. Also updates the 'gen_initramfs_list.sh' script to check whether a selected compression command is accessible or not. And fall-back to default gzip(1) compression when it is not. Signed-off-by:
