<content type='text'>
The current implementations of the rb_first() and rb_last() gdb
functions have a variable that references itself in its instanciation,
which causes the function to throw an error if a specific condition on
the argument is met.  The original author rather intended to reference
the argument and made a typo.  Referring the argument instead makes the
function work as intended.

<title>scripts/decodecode: fix trapping instruction formatting</title>

If the trapping instruction contains a ':', for a memory access through
segment registers for example, the sed substitution will insert the '*'
marker in the middle of the instruction instead of the line address:

	2b:   65 48 0f c7 0f          cmpxchg16b %gs:*(%rdi)          &lt;-- trapping instruction

I started to think I had forgotten some quirk of the assembly syntax
before noticing that it was actually coming from the script.  Fix it to
add the address marker at the right place for these instructions:

	28:   49 8b 06                mov    (%r14),%rax
	2b:*  65 48 0f c7 0f          cmpxchg16b %gs:(%rdi)           &lt;-- trapping instruction
	30:   0f 94 c0                sete   %al

<title>gcc-10 warnings: fix low-hanging fruit</title>

Due to a bug-report that was compiler-dependent, I updated one of my
machines to gcc-10.  That shows a lot of new warnings.  Happily they
seem to be mostly the valid kind, but it's going to cause a round of
churn for getting rid of them..

This is the really low-hanging fruit of removing a couple of zero-sized
arrays in some core code.  We have had a round of these patches before,
and we'll have many more coming, and there is nothing special about
these except that they were particularly trivial, and triggered more
warnings than most.

Since commit 7a0496056064 ("kbuild: fix DT binding schema rule to detect
command line changes"), this rule is every time re-run even if you change
nothing.

cmd_dtc takes one additional parameter to pass to the -O option of dtc.

We need to pass 'yaml' to if_changed_rule. Otherwise, cmd-check invoked
from if_changed_rule is false positive.

Sed broke on some strings as it used colon as a separator.
I made it more robust by using \001, which is legit POSIX AFAIK.

E.g. ./config --set-str CONFIG_USBNET_DEVADDR "de:ad:be:ef:00:01"
failed with: sed: -e expression #1, char 55: unknown option to `s'

is missing in the regex.

<title>kbuild: check libyaml installation for 'make dt_binding_check'</title>

If you run 'make dtbs_check' without installing the libyaml package,
the error message "dtc needs libyaml ..." is shown.

This should be checked also for 'make dt_binding_check' because dtc
needs to validate *.example.dts extracted from *.yaml files.

It is missing since commit 4f0e3a57d6eb ("kbuild: Add support for DT
binding schema checks"), but this fix-up is applicable only after commit
e10c4321dc1e ("kbuild: allow to run dt_binding_check and dtbs_check
in a single command").

I gave the Fixes tag to the latter in case somebody is interested in
back-porting this.
