Peng Fan (OSS) <peng.fan@oss.nxp.com> says:
This patch set primarily removes unused DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR
instances.
Many files declare DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR and include
asm/global_data.h even though gd is never used. In these cases,
asm/global_data.h is effectively treated as a proxy header, which is
not a good practice.
Following the Include What You Use principle, files should include
only the headers they actually depend on, rather than relying on
global_data.h indirectly. This approach is also adopted in Linux kernel
[1].
The first few patches are prepartion to avoid building break after
remove the including of global_data.h.
A script is for filtering the files:
list=`find . -name "*.[ch]"`
for source in ${list}
do
result=`sed -n '/DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR/p' ${source}`
if [ "${result}" == "DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR;" ]; then
echo "Found in ${source}"
result=`sed -n '/\<gd\>/p' ${source}`
result2=`sed -n '/\<gd_/p' ${source}`
result3=`sed -n '/\<gd->/p' ${source}`
if [ "${result}" == "" ] && [ "${result2}" == "" ] && [ "${result3}" == "" ];then
echo "Cleanup ${source}"
sed -i '/DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR/{N;/\n[[:space:]]*$/d;s/.*\n//;}' ${source}
sed -i '/DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR/d' ${source}
sed -i '/global_data.h/d' ${source}
git add ${source}
