Remove the somewhat awkward uses of print_symbol and convert all the existing uses to a new vsprintf pointer type of %pSR. print_symbol can be interleaved when it is used in a sequence like: printk("something: ..."); print_symbol("%s", addr); printk("\n"); Instead use: printk("something: %pSR\n", (void *)addr); Add a new %p[SsFf]R vsprintf extension that can perform the same symbol function/address/offset formatting as print_symbol to reduce the number and styles of message logging functions. print_symbol used __builtin_extract_return_addr for those architectures like S/390 and SPARC that have offset or masked addressing. %p[FfSs]R uses the same gcc __builtin Joe Perches (26): vsprintf: Add extension %pSR - print_symbol replacement alpha: Convert print_symbol to %pSR arm: Convert print_symbol to %pSR arm64: Convert print_symbol to %pSR avr32: Convert print_symbol to %pSR c6x: Convert print_symbol to %pSR ia64: Convert print_symbol to %pSR m32r: Convert print_symbol to %pSR mn10300: Convert print_symbol to %pSR openrisc: Convert print_symbol to %pSR powerpc: Convert print_symbol to %pSR s390: Convert print_symbol to %pSR sh: Convert print_symbol to %pSR um: Convert print_symbol to %pSR unicore32: Convert print_symbol to %pSR x86: Convert print_symbol to %pSR xtensa: Convert print_symbol to %pSR drivers: base: Convert print_symbol to %pSR gfs2: Convert print_symbol to %pSR sysfs: Convert print_symbol to %pSR irq: Convert print_symbol to %pSR smp_processor_id: Convert print_symbol to %pSR mm: Convert print_symbol to %pSR xtensa: Convert print_symbol to %pSR x86: head_64.S: Use vsprintf extension %pSR not print_symbol kallsyms: Remove print_symbol Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt | 4 +- Documentation/printk-formats.txt | 2 + Documentation/zh_CN/filesystems/sysfs.txt | 4 +- arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c | 8 ++---- arch/arm/kernel/process.c | 4 +- arch/arm64/kernel/process.c | 4 +- arch/avr32/kernel/process.c | 25 ++++++----------------- arch/c6x/kernel/traps.c | 3 +- arch/ia64/kernel/process.c | 13 ++++------- arch/m32r/kernel/traps.c | 6 +--- arch/mn10300/kernel/traps.c | 8 +++--- arch/openrisc/kernel/traps.c | 7 +---- arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spu_callbacks.c | 12 ++++------ arch/s390/kernel/traps.c | 28 +++++++++++++++----------- arch/sh/kernel/process_32.c | 4 +- arch/um/kernel/sysrq.c | 6 +--- arch/unicore32/kernel/process.c | 5 ++- arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c | 13 ++++++----- arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c | 5 +-- arch/x86/kernel/head_64.S | 4 +- arch/x86/kernel/process_32.c | 2 +- arch/x86/mm/mmio-mod.c | 4 +- arch/x86/um/sysrq_32.c | 9 ++----- arch/xtensa/kernel/traps.c | 6 +--- drivers/base/core.c | 4 +- fs/gfs2/glock.c | 4 +- fs/gfs2/trans.c | 3 +- fs/sysfs/file.c | 4 +- include/linux/kallsyms.h | 18 ----------------- kernel/irq/debug.h | 15 ++++++------- kernel/kallsyms.c | 11 ---------- lib/smp_processor_id.c | 2 +- lib/vsprintf.c | 18 ++++++++++++---- mm/memory.c | 8 +++--- mm/slab.c | 8 ++---- 35 files changed, 117 insertions(+), 164 deletions(-) -- 1.7.8.112.g3fd21 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
