You are right.

But if we can keep things simpler why we make it complex ?

This is almost used in all header files :
#ifdef __KERNEL__
#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__

Earlier it was also used like this :

Hi Ralf.

Any specific reason why mips does not use include/asm-generic/ioctl.h?
Had mips done so this would not have been an issue.

Please let the subject explain what was fixed.
The fact that you used headers_check to detect the
issue in the first place is less relevant.

For mips the subject could have been:

mips: use userspace compatible definition of _IOC_TYPECHECK

Did you concentrate solely on headers_check output
or did you carefully inspect the files you touched for userspace issues?
I stroingly recommend to fix all userspace issues in files touched
if this is possible.

You are correct that headers_ceck is limited here and this patch
take some valid code and refactor it to make it headers_check compatible.

But the resulting code is as readable as before and
we keep the noise down when checking our exported headers.

Considering the effort needed to fix the tool I would request
you to take the patch anyway.

Tony - is this file really used from userspace.
Looking at the definitions I think not.

I not then the real fix is to unexport it.

I did my best and fix all userspace issues in above files. Now I am

It's pretty obvious that the above data structure also doesn't
apply in user space. In fact it looks like the whole file should
just not be exported. Your patch is not helpful there because
it just silences the warning.

The original include/asm-generic/ioctl.h did not allow overriding
the values of _IOC_{SIZEBITS,DIRBITS,NONE,READ,WRITE}, so it
was initially not possible to use it.

Nowadays, you can simply use the same approach as powerpc:

#ifndef _ASM_MIPS_IOCTL_H
#define _ASM_MIPS_IOCTL_H

#define _IOC_SIZEBITS 13
#define _IOC_DIRBITS 3

#define _IOC_NONE 1U
#define _IOC_READ 2U
#define _IOC_WRITE 4U

/*
* The following are included for compatibility
*/
#define _IOC_VOID 0x20000000
#define _IOC_OUT 0x40000000
#define _IOC_IN 0x80000000
#define _IOC_INOUT (IOC_IN|IOC_OUT)

#include <asm-generic/ioctl.h>

#endif /* _ASM_MIPS_IOCTL_H */

This would indeed be a cleaner fix.

In fact that's almost identical to what I already have. But I don't even
recall what _IOC_VOID, _IOC_OUT, _IOC_IN and _IOC_INOUT were meant to be
compatible with. They were added in 2.1.14 so presumably they've become
irrlevant, so I've dropped them. I bet nobody will notice.

If it is just a matter of unifdef not doing the right thing, then that's
a bug in unifdef - looking at the code, it _should_ handle the case as
it's currently in the tree.

I'll spend a bit looking at this issue before applying this patch - if
the fix turns out to be trivial then we all win by not requiring people
to write stuff in unexpected (to the tools, but standard C) ways.

the current version of unifdef, as it stands, has some weaknesses.
there's a newer version -- sunifdef -- that appears to be more robust
and ruthless when it comes to cleaning. just an observation.

Okay, here's the question:

Does userspace require anything in the ifdef __ASSEMBLY__ bits?

In any case, passing -D__KERNEL__ or -U__KERNEL__ allows unifdef to
do the right thing.

The problem which unifdef has is that if it finds a symbol in an
evaluation that it doesn't know about, it fails the expansion
entirely, rather than checking whether the expansion always results
in something which should be omitted. In other words:

#if defined(__KERNEL__) && (<unknown>)

results in basically an "unknown" answer from the evaluator, where
we can see perfectly well that the expansion can never be true if
__KERNEL__ is never set.

So, the trivial answer to the problem if:

#if defined(__KERNEL__) && something-depending-on-__ASSEMBLY__

is to tell unifdef whether we want __ASSEMBLY__ defined or not defined.
This does shut up the headers_install warning from ARMs hwdef.h.

That would help this onn - right.
But we have 12 other places in include/linux and 2 other places in arch/arm/include/asm
that uses this construct.

So to me this is simple a matter of:
1) add a number of specific -Dxxx to unifdef to silence those warnings
2) simplify the logic in a few places
3) fix unifdef (or use somethign better)

If I had better time I had rewritten unifdef long time ago.
And of 1) or 2) I so far has used option 2) to avoid an endless
list of config entries.

If someone uses an expression that unifdef does not cope with then
the worst things that happens is that we export a piece
of useless stuff to userspace (they never see it) and in a few cases
we spit out false warnign as in this case.

Adding only -U__ASSEMBLY__ is fine by me.
But adding all the others are not OK and here I request the simplified
logic.

__ASSEMBLY__ is not specific to kernel. Any one can take benefit of it.

The problem is why you are trying to complex things which are simple and
straight.

#ifdef __KERNEL__ is for kernel
#ifndef __KERNEL__ is for userspace

Do not mix it with others defines, Whole kernel is following this
protocol why you need a exception ?

#ifdef __KERNEL__
something-depending-on-__ASSEMBLY__

will not only shut up these warnings but also avoid confusion, keep
things simple and avoid unknown future problems.

As I already said earlier that I mentioned compatible issue in commit
log :

"Make ioctl.h compatible with asm-generic/ioctl.h and userspace"

and it also fixes headers_check for userspace. So I kept it to maintain
harmony :

What you're saying is "you may not follow valid C ways of expressing
conditional compilation" to which I say "go and piss in someone elses
pool".

Since the fix for this in unifdef is soo trivial, and it doesn't require
people to write stuff in ways that stupid idiotic tools can understand,
I'm NEVER going to apply the fix to hwdef.h.

So you now have two options: either supply the (correct) additional
parameter to unifdef, or ignore the stupid idiotic warning message.

> My request to you please think bigger and look at bigger picture.

Same response to you actually. What I'm doing is valid C and there
has NEVER been this convention you're trying to make out.

Hmm, again you are trying to complex things.

Issue is not of valid C or not.

Issue is #if defined(__KERNEL__) && (<unknown>) is WRONG.

It should be :

#ifdef __KERNEL__
#ifdef <unknown>

otherwise how you will pass it to userspace.

Why you are looking on kernel side only why do not you think about user
space ?
please check how it will look at usr/include/asm-arm/hwcap.h

Earlier it was already like this, because of Catalin Marinas
fault (commit f884b1cf578e0) and your ignorance you converted :

#ifdef __KERNEL__
#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__

to :

#if defined(__KERNEL__) && !defined(__ASSEMBLY__)

I am just trying to rectify your mistake that __KERNEL__ should not be
used with other defines to easily export headers to userspace. Whole
kernel header files are following this protocol. Sam, Arnd and me are
trying to convince you. Why you need an exception ?

You are not listening.

I believe that there is a much better way to fix this, and that is to
fix the tools. Having looked at unifdef, I believe that the fix is
almost trivial in nature.

With fixed tools, we don't have to fuck around writing a special dialect
of C to work around their short comings - a dialect which isn't obvious.

What we actually have here is a small number of people who've suddenly
decided that a perfectly good bit of C code is no longer good enough for
their purposes, and are now requiring things to be written to match their
own rules.

Let's fix the tools and then we don't have to ever worry about this
problem again, or require people to write their C code in special ways.

Right, below is a patch to unifdef.c which allows it to work out if
an #if expression always evaluates true or false for symbols which
are being undefined/always defined.

The patch is slightly more complicated than I'd hoped because unifdef
needs to see lines fully evaluated - doing otherwise causes it to
mark the line as "dirty" and copy it over no matter what.

What follows this email is the diff of what effect it has on the
headers copied over - as can be seen, all resulting changes are of
net benefit.

And here is the patch illustrating the overall change on the installed
header files. As can be seen, all instances of:

#if defined(__KERNEL__) && ...
...
#endif

are removed, and:

#if !defined(__KERNEL__) || ...
...
#endif

have the conditionals also correctly removed, leaving the code between
properly exposed.

Clearly from the number of differences below, I'm not the only one who
is "ignorant" of this magic new rule about __KERNEL__, and I suggest
that no such rule actually ever existed.

You beat me on this one.
I was looking into supportting short_circuit_and/short_circuit_or too.
Your patch looks better - thanks!

>From my very limited testing this patch suffers from a problem I faced too.
When you run it on for example hwcap.h or my sample file:
#if defined(__KERNEL__) && !defined(__ASSEMBLY__)
int a;
#endif

then the return code of the program is 1 so we do not copy the file.

I'm heading for bed - will take a closer look tomorrow.

That's correct. If unifdef removes any lines, the exit code is 1, not
zero. This happens with the unmodified unifdef as well, so I'm not
changing that behaviour.

Thanks.
I was just fooled in my testing.
With the same file I saw two different return codes with and
without the patch. But this is because you fixed unifdef.

Result is great - thanks for implmenting this!
I have applied the following (no code changes, only a few more
details in the changelog).

commit 3a8a10760f9626856848ae815e9436a2e04a4082
Author: Russell King <[email protected]>
Date: Sat Jun 6 22:47:11 2009 +0100

kbuild: fix headers_exports with boolean expression

When we had code like this in a header unifdef failed to
deduct that the expression was always false - and we had code exported
that was not intended for userspace.

#if defined(__KERNEL__) && !defined(__ASSEMBLY__)
int a;
#endif

This commit implment support in unidef which allows it to work out if
an #if expression always evaluates true or false for symbols which
are being undefined/always defined.

The patch is slightly more complicated than I'd hoped because unifdef
needs to see lines fully evaluated - doing otherwise causes it to
mark the line as "dirty" and copy it over no matter what.
