verification/dot2k: Auto patch current kernel source

2024-12-27T19:39:35Z

dot2k suggests a list of changes to the kernel tree while adding a monitor: edit tracepoints header, Makefile, Kconfig and moving the monitor folder. Those changes can be easily run automatically. Add a flag to dot2k to alter the kernel source. The kernel source directory can be either assumed from the PWD, or from the running kernel, if installed. This feature works best if the kernel tree is a git repository, so that its easier to make sure there are no unintended changes. The main RV files (e.g. Makefile) have now a comment placeholder that can be useful for manual editing (e.g. to know where to add new monitors) and it is used by the script to append the required lines. We also slightly adapt the file handling functions in dot2k: __open_file is now called __read_file and also closes the file before returning the content; __create_file is now a more general __write_file, we no longer return on FileExistsError (not thrown while opening), a new __create_file simply calls __write_file specifying the monitor folder in the path.

rv: Simplify manual steps in monitor creation

2024-12-27T19:20:03Z

While creating a new monitor in RV, besides generating code from dot2k, there are a few manual steps which can be tedious and error prone, like adding the tracepoints, makefile lines and kconfig. This patch restructures the existing monitors to keep some files in the monitor's folder itself, which can be automatically generated by future versions of dot2k. Monitors have now their own Kconfig and tracepoint snippets. For simplicity, the main tracepoint definition, is moved to the RV directory, it defines only the tracepoint classes and includes the monitor-specific tracepoints, which reside in the monitor directory. Tracepoints and Kconfig no longer need to be copied and adapted from existing ones but only need to be included in the main files. The Makefile remains untouched since there's little advantage in having a separated Makefile for each monitor with a single line and including it in the main RV Makefile.

[tree-wide] finally take no_llseek out

2024-09-27T15:18:43Z

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441 ("fs: remove no_llseek") To quote that commit, At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek - git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do sed -i '/\/d' $i done would do it. Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the form .llseek = no_llseek, so it's obviously safe.

Variable retval is being assigned a value that is never read, it is being re-assigned a new value in both paths of a following if statement. Remove the assignment.

rv/reactor: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules

2023-04-13T20:13:53Z

Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message. So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as modules.
