microblaze: Use get_signal() signal_setup_done()

2019-05-02T20:41:43+00:00

commit 9c53c7ec14a5738ae3117d7d71b7abf630526c9f upstream.

Use the more generic functions get_signal() signal_setup_done()
for signal delivery.

Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

2018-10-21T07:46:11+00:00

commit a6e2f029ae34f41adb6ae3812c32c5d326e1abd2 upstream.

Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the
generic version, which previously only supported big-endian.

Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in
any case is also not present for the existing BE-only
implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.

Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures
that didn't previously have it.

microblaze: drop _PAGE_FILE and pte_file()-related helpers

2018-10-03T03:09:55+00:00

commit 937fa39fb22fea1c1d8ca9e5f31c452b91ac7239 upstream.

We've replaced remap_file_pages(2) implementation with emulation.  Nobody
creates non-linear mapping anymore.

vm: add VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV handling support

2015-02-04T10:58:27+00:00

commit 33692f27597fcab536d7cbbcc8f52905133e4aa7 upstream.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.

That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works.  However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.

In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV.  And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.

However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space.  And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.

To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it.  They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.

This is the mindless minimal patch to do this.  A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.

Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

sys_sgetmask/sys_ssetmask: add CONFIG_SGETMASK_SYSCALL

2014-06-04T23:54:14+00:00

sys_sgetmask and sys_ssetmask are obsolete system calls no longer
supported in libc.

This patch replaces architecture related __ARCH_WANT_SYS_SGETMAX by expert
mode configuration.That option is enabled by default for those
architectures.

Pull DeviceTree updates from Rob Herring:
- Another round of clean-up of FDT related code in architecture code.
This removes knowledge of internal FDT details from most
architectures except powerpc.
- Conversion of kernel's custom FDT parsing code to use libfdt.
- DT based initialization for generic serial earlycon. The
introduction of generic serial earlycon support went in through the
tty tree.
- Improve the platform device naming for DT probed devices to ensure
unique naming and use parent names instead of a global index.
- Fix a race condition in of_update_property.
- Unify the various linker section OF match tables and fix several
function prototype errors.
- Update platform_get_irq_byname to work in deferred probe cases.
- 2 binding doc updates
