[PATCH RFC 00/73] tree-wide: clean up some no longer required #include <linux/init.h>

[PATCH RFC 00/73] tree-wide: clean up some no longer required #include <linux/init.h>

[Paul Gortmaker]

TL;DR - We removed cpuinit and devinit, which left ~2000 instances of
include <linux/init.h> that were no longer needed.  To fully enable
this removal/cleanup, we relocate module_init() from init.h into
module.h.  Multi arch/multi config build testing on linux-next has
been used to find and fix any implicit header dependencies prior to
deploying the actual init.h --> module.h move, to preserve bisection.

Additional details beyond TL;DR:

module_init/module_exit and friends moved to module.h
=====================================================
Aside from enabling this init.h cleanup to extend into modular files,
it actually does make sense.  For all modules will use some form of
our initfunc processing/categorization, but not all initfunc users
will be necessarily using modular functionality.  So we move these
module related macros to module.h and ensure module.h sources init.h


module_init in non modular code:
================================
This series uncovered that we are enabling people to use module_init
in non-modular code.  While that works fine, there are at least three
reasons why it probably should not be encouraged:

 1) it makes a casual reader of the code assume the code is modular
    even though it is obj-y (builtin) or controlled by a bool Kconfig.

 2) it makes it too easy to add dead code in a function that is handed
    to module_exit() -- [more on that below]

 3) it breaks our ability to use priority sorted initcalls properly
    [more on that below.]

After this change, a new coder who tries to make use of module_init in
non modular code would find themselves also needing to include the
module.h header.  At which point the odds are greater that they would
ask themselves "Am I doing this right?  I shouldn't need this."

Note that existing non-modular code that already includes module.h and
uses module_init doesn't get fixed here, since they already build w/o
errors triggered by this change; we'll have to hunt them down later.


module_init and initcall ordering:
==================================
We have a group of about ten priority sorted initcalls, that are
called in init/main.c after most of the hard coded/direct calls
have been processed.  These serve the purpose of avoiding everyone
poking at init/main.c to hook in their init sequence.  The bins are:

        pure_initcall               0
        core_initcall               1
        postcore_initcall           2
        arch_initcall               3
        subsys_initcall             4
        fs_initcall                 5
        device_initcall             6
        late_initcall               7

These are meant to eventually replace users of the non specific
priority "__initcall" which currently maps onto device_initcall.
This is of interest, because in non-modular code, cpp does this:

    module_init -->  __initcall --> device_initcall

So all module_init() land in the device_initcall bucket, rather late
in the sequence.  That makes sense, since if it was a module, the init
could be real late (days, weeks after boot).  But now imagine you add
support for some non-modular bus/arch/infrastructure (say for e.g. PCI)
and you use module_init for it.  That means anybody else who wants
to use your subsystem can't do so if they use an initcall of 0 --> 5
priority.  For a real world example of this, see patch #1 in this series:

	https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/1/14/809

We don't want to force code that is clearly arch or subsys or fs
specific to have to use the device_initcall just because something
else has been mistakenly put (or left) in that bucket.  So a couple of
changes do actually change the initcall level where it is inevitably
appropriate to do so.  Those are called out explicitly in their
respective commit logs.


module_exit and dead code
=========================
Built in code will never have an opportunity to call functions that
are registered with module_exit(), so any cases of that uncovered in
this series delete that dead code.  Note that any built-in code that
was already including module.h and using module_exit won't have shown
up as breakage on the build coverage of this series, so we'll have to
find those independently later.  It looks like there may be quite a
few that are invisibly created via module_platform_driver -- a macro
that creates module_init and module_exit automatically.  We may want
to consider relocating module_platform_driver into module.h later...


cpuinit
=======
To finalize the removal of cpuinit, which was done several releases
ago, we remove the remaining stub functions from init.h in this
series.  We've seen one or two "users" try to creep back in, so this
will close the door on that chapter and prevent creep.


When, what and where?
=====================
When: Ideally, barring any objections or massive oversights on my
part, this will go in at or around rc1, i.e. in about 2wks.  In the
meantime I will continue daily re-test on linux-next across ~10 different
arch, using allyesconfig, allmodconfig and arch specific defconfigs
for things like mips/arm/powerpc; as I have been doing for a while.

Where: This work exists as a queue of patches that I apply to
linux-next; since the changes are fixing some things that currently
can only be found there.  The patch series can be found at:

   http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/paulg/init.git
   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/init.git

The patches are not in strict chronological order, since when I've
found a header change causes a build regression that is due to an
implicit dependency/inclusion, I place the dependency fix before the
header change that caused it, so that bisection is preserved.

I've avoided annoying Stephen with another queue of patches for
linux-next while the development content was in flux, but now that
the merge window has opened, and new additions are fewer, perhaps he
wouldn't mind tacking it on the end...  Stephen?

In order to reduce the size of the overall queue here, I have already
put some dependency-free changes through maintainer trees after
re-testing them on whatever their development baseline was.  That made
sense for the larger ones (drivers/[net,usb,input] some arch trees...)
and for the kernel/ mm/ and fs/ ones where the changes were less
trivial and an earlier review was desired. But that independent treatment
doesn't scale for handling all the commits -- hence ~1400 of the
full ~2k of init.h removals remain here in this series.

What: The audit for removal of extra init.h lines has covered
drivers/, all of the main architectures (and some of the more fringe
ones), and core dirs like mm/ fs/ and kernel/ too.  The removals from
include/ itself are probably the most valuable, in terms of reducing
the amount of stuff we needlessly feed CPP.  There is probably more
fringe ones to be found, but this covers the majority of them.
Additional ones can be fed in later (through the trivial tree perhaps)
as desired.

Build coverage (from memory) has included, but is not limited to:

  allyesconfig, allmodconfig:
	x86, x86_64, ia64, s390, arm, mips, sparc, powerpc
  arch specifc arch/<name>/config/*config files:
	arm, mips, powerpc
  defconfig:
	(all of the above), c6x, parisc, uml, tile, c6x, blackfin, ...

and it will continue to take place for the next ~2wks, until I can
reliably apply the queue to master and submit a pull request.

Thanks for reading this far, and thanks to those who have merged init.h
cleanup commits already!  Additional comments, reviews and acks welcomed.

Paul.

[PATCH 36/73] s390: delete non-required instances of include <linux/init.h>

[Paul Gortmaker]

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include <linux/init.h>.  Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

OK, I have added this to the end of linux-next today - we will see how we
go.  It is called "init".

Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next.  As
you may know, this is not a judgment of your code.  The purpose of
linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window. 

You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
been:
     * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
	Signed-off-by,
     * posted to the relevant mailing list,
     * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
     * successfully unit tested, and 
     * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch).  It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

Legal Stuff:
By participating in linux-next, your subsystem tree contributions are
public and will be included in the linux-next trees.  You may be sent
e-mail messages indicating errors or other issues when the
patches/commits from your subsystem tree are merged and tested in
linux-next.  These messages may also be cross-posted to the linux-next
mailing list, the linux-kernel mailing list, etc.  The linux-next tree
project and IBM (my employer) make no warranties regarding the linux-next
project, the testing procedures, the results, the e-mails, etc.  If you
don't agree to these ground rules, let me know and I'll remove your tree
from participation in linux-next.

Thanks, it was a great help as it uncovered a few issues in fringe arch
that I didn't have toolchains for, and I've fixed all of those up.

I've noticed that powerpc has been un-buildable for a while now; I have
used this hack patch locally so I could run the ppc defconfigs to check
that I didn't break anything.  Maybe useful for linux-next in the
interim?  It is a hack patch -- Not-Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker.  :)

Paul.

Can you and/or Aneesh submit that as a proper patch (with S-O-B
etc...) ?

Thanks !

Ben.

I'd updated toolchains and didn't realize it was still broken.  Patch sent.
