[S390] cleanup trap handling

2011-12-27T10:27:12+00:00

Move the program interruption code and the translation exception identifier
to the pt_regs structure as 'int_code' and 'int_parm_long' and make the
first level interrupt handler in entry[64].S store the two values. That
makes it possible to drop 'prot_addr' and 'trap_no' from the thread_struct
and to reduce the number of arguments to a lot of functions. Finally
un-inline do_trap. Overall this saves 5812 bytes in the .text section of
the 64 bit kernel.

[S390] cleanup lowcore access from program checks

2010-10-25T14:10:19+00:00

Read all required fields for program checks from the lowcore in the
first level interrupt handler in entry[64].S. If the context that
caused the fault was enabled for interrupts we can now re-enable the
irqs in entry[64].S.

Mark arguments to certain syscalls as being const

2010-08-13T23:53:13+00:00

Mark arguments to certain system calls as being const where they should be but
aren't.  The list includes:

 (*) The filename arguments of various stat syscalls, execve(), various utimes
     syscalls and some mount syscalls.

 (*) The filename arguments of some syscall helpers relating to the above.

 (*) The buffer argument of various write syscalls.

[S390] sys_personality: follow u_long to unsigned int conversion

2010-08-13T08:06:54+00:00

commit 485d527686850d68a0e9006dd9904f19f122485e "sys_personality: change
sys_personality() to accept "unsigned int" instead of u_long" changed
the syscall interface for sys_personality.
Just follow the common code change in our arch code to avoid confusion.

improve sys_newuname() for compat architectures

2010-03-12T23:52:32+00:00

On an architecture that supports 32-bit compat we need to override the
reported machine in uname with the 32-bit value.  Instead of doing this
separately in every architecture introduce a COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE define in
 and apply it directly in sys_newuname().
