Since commit 22d651dcef ('selftests/powerpc:
Import Anton's memcpy / copy_tofrom_user tests'), some source files in the
tree appear as symlink.
Until commit 8c38a5328a ('scripts/tags.sh:
ignore code of user space tools'), those symlinks made cscope report some
warnings:
$ make ALLSOURCE_ARCHS=all O=./obj-cscope/ cscope
GEN cscope
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/copyuser_power7.S
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/memcpy_64.S
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/memcpy_power7.S
cscope: cannot find
file .../tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops/copyuser_64.S
In order to prevent the same kind of warnings to be triggered by future
addition of symlinks, the best option is to ignore all symlinks when
building the file list to be processed by cscope (and other tools
supported by scripts/tags.sh).
Ignoring symlinks won't hide source files from cscope (and others) as the
target of these symlinks already appear somewhere else in the tree, and,
as such, should be processed by cscope (or others).
Note that, cscope, when used with -R option to make it find the files to
process by itself, already skip symlinks: it's not expected that cscope
access source files through symlink.
On top of commit 8c38a5328a ('scripts/tags.sh:
ignore code of user space tools'), scripts/tags.sh output from
"make cscope tags TAGS" is the same with and without this patch: it doesn't
seems to introduce any regression (on Fedora 20).

Currently, while using ctags to read code, we would get stumbled on
PageCgroup* symbols: no definition found. And it is quite dull to
manually dig it out.
This patch adds regular expression replacement pattern for such symbols,
like what have done for the PageXXX flag. It will teach ctags to find
out the definition for us.

objdiff is useful when doing large code cleanups. For example, when
removing checkpatch warnings and errors from new drivers in the staging
tree.
objdiff can be used in conjunction with a git rebase to confirm that
each commit made no changes to the resulting object code. It has the
same return values as diff(1).
This was written specifically to support adding the skein and threefish
cryto drivers to the staging tree. I needed a programmatic way to
confirm that commits changing >90% of the lines didn't inadvertently
change the code.
Temporary files (objdump output) are stored in

"make allnoconfig" exists to ease testing of minimal configurations.
Documentation/SubmitChecklist includes a note to test with allnoconfig.
This helps catch missing dependencies on common-but-not-required
functionality, which might otherwise go unnoticed.
However, allnoconfig still leaves many symbols enabled, because they're
hidden behind CONFIG_EMBEDDED or CONFIG_EXPERT. For instance, allnoconfig
still has CONFIG_PRINTK and CONFIG_BLOCK enabled, so drivers don't
typically get build-tested with those disabled.
To address this, introduce a new Kconfig option "allnoconfig_y", used on
symbols which only exist to hide other symbols. Set it on CONFIG_EMBEDDED
(which then selects CONFIG_EXPERT). allnoconfig will then disable all the
symbols hidden behind those.

Currently the parenthesis alignment test works only on misalignments of
if statements like
if (foo(bar,
baz)
Expand the test to find misalignments like:
static inline int foo(int bar,
int baz)
and
foo(bar,
baz);
and
foo = bar(baz,
qux);
Expand the $Inline keyword for __inline and __inline__ too.
Add $Inline to $Declare so it also matches "static inline <foo>".
These checks are only performed with --strict.

A commit hook for the Gerrit code review server [1] inserts change
identifiers so Gerrit can track patches through multiple revisions.
These identifiers are noise in the context of the upstream kernel.
(Many Gerrit servers are private. Even given a public instance, given
only a Change-Id, one must guess which server a change was tracked on.
Patches submitted to the Linux kernel mailing lists should be able to
stand on their own. If it's truly useful to reference code review on a
Gerrit server, a URL is a much clearer way to do so.) Thus, issue an
error when a Change-Id line is encountered before the Signed-off-by.

__GFP_NOFAIL exists to
a) centralise the retry-allocation-for-ever operation into the core
