We are repeating the functionality of kstrtol in param_set_long, and the
same for kstrtoint. We can get rid of the extra code by using the right
functions.

For some strings (e.g. version string), they are permitted to be larger
than PAGE_SIZE (although meaningless), so recommend to use scnprintf()
instead of sprintf().

Currently the params.c code allows only two "set" functions to have
no arguments. If a parameter does not have an argument, then it
looks at the set function and tests if it is either param_set_bool()
or param_set_bint(). If it is not one of these functions, then it
fails the loading of the module.
But there may be module parameters that have different set functions
and still allow no arguments. But unless each of these cases adds
their function to the if statement, it wont be allowed to have no
arguments. This method gets rather messing and does not scale.
Instead, introduce a flags field to the kernel_param_ops, where if
the flag KERNEL_PARAM_FL_NOARG is set, the parameter will not fail
if it does not contain an argument. It will be expected that the
corresponding set function can handle a NULL pointer as "val".

In param_get_byte(), to which the macro STANDARD_PARAM_DEF(byte, ...) expands,
"%c" is used to print an unsigned char. So it gets printed as a character what
is not intended here. Use "%hhu" instead.

On allocation failure, it would fail to free the old attrs array which
was no longer referenced by anything (since it would free the old
module_param_attrs struct on the way out).

I left 1 printk which uses __FILE__, __LINE__ explicitly, which should
not be subject to generic preferences expressed via pr_fmt().
+ tweaks suggested by Joe Perches:
- add doing to irq-enabled warning, like others. It wont happen often..
- change sysfs failure crit, not just err, make it 1 line in logs.
- coalese 2 format fragments into 1 >80 char line

In commit 9fb48c744: "params: add 3rd arg to option handler callback
signature", the if-guard added to the pr_debug was overzealous; no
callers pass NULL, and existing code above and below the guard assumes
as much. Change the if-guard to match, and silence the Smack
complaint.

Add a 3rd arg, named "doing", to unknown-options callbacks invoked
from parse_args(). The arg is passed as:
"Booting kernel" from start_kernel(),
initcall_level_names[i] from do_initcall_level(),
mod->name from load_module(), via parse_args(), parse_one()
parse_args() already has the "name" parameter, which is renamed to
"doing" to better reflect current uses 1,2 above. parse_args() passes
it to an altered parse_one(), which now passes it down into the
unknown option handler callbacks.
The mod->name will be needed to handle dyndbg for loadable modules,
since params passed by modprobe are not qualified (they do not have a
"$modname." prefix), and by the time the unknown-param callback is
called, the module name is not otherwise available.
Minor tweaks:
Add param-name to parse_one's pr_debug(), current message doesnt
identify the param being handled, add it.
Add a pr_info to print current level and level_name of the initcall,
and number of registered initcalls at that level. This adds 7 lines
to dmesg output, like:
initlevel:6=device, 172 registered initcalls
Drop "parameters" from initcall_level_names[], its unhelpful in the
pr_info() added above. This array is passed into parse_args() by
do_initcall_level().

This patch adds a set of macros that can be used to declare
kernel parameters to be parsed _before_ initcalls at a chosen
level are executed. We rename the now-unused "flags" field of
struct kernel_param as the level. It's signed, for when we
use this for early params as well, in future.
Linker macro collating init calls had to be modified in order
to add additional symbols between levels that are later used
by the init code to split the calls into blocks.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.
This eliminates that code (though leaves the flags field in the struct,
for impending use).

Different tree maintainers picked up independently generated
trivial compile fixes based on linux-next testing, resulting
in some cases where a file would have got more than one addition
of module.h once everything was all merged together.
Delete any duplicates so includecheck isn't complaining about
anything related to module.h/export.h changes.

Through various other implicit include paths, some files were
getting the full module.h file, and hence living the illusion
that they really only needed moduleparam.h -- but the reality
is that once you remove the module.h presence, these show up:
kernel/params.c:583: warning: ‘struct module_kobject’ declared inside parameter list
Such files really require module.h so simply make it so. As the
file module.h grabs moduleparam.h on the fly, all will be well.

The user may use "foo-bar" for a kernel parameter defined as "foo_bar".
Make sure it works the other way around too.
Apply the equality of dashes and underscores on early_params and __setup
params as well.
The example given in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt indicates that
this is the intended behaviour.
With the patch the kernel accepts "log-buf-len=1M" as expected.

Userspace wants to manage module parameters with udev rules.
This currently only works for loaded modules, but not for
built-in ones.
To allow access to the built-in modules we need to
re-trigger all module load events that happened before any
userspace was running. We already do the same thing for all
devices, subsystems(buses) and drivers.
This adds the currently missing /sys/module/<name>/uevent files
to all module entries.

In STANDARD_PARAM_DEF, param_set_* handles the case in which strtolfn
returns -EINVAL but it may return -ERANGE. If it returns -ERANGE,
param_set_* may set uninitialized value to the paramerter. We should handle
both cases.
The one of the cases in which strtolfn() returns -ERANGE is following:
*Type of module parameter is long
*Set the parameter more than LONG_MAX

On m68k natural alignment is 2-byte boundary but we are trying to
align structures in __modver section on sizeof(void *) boundary.
This causes trouble when we try to access elements in this section
in array-like fashion when create "version" attributes for built-in
modules.
Moreover, as DaveM said, we can't reliably put structures into
independent objects, put them into a special section, and then expect
array access over them (via the section boundaries) after linking the
objects together to just "work" due to variable alignment choices in
different situations. The only solution that seems to work reliably
is to make an array of plain pointers to the objects in question and
put those pointers in the special section.
