score: Use get_signal() signal_setup_done()

2019-05-02T20:41:46+00:00

commit 2bb12b773feb3e792145961e57ab356e6134d4a5 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.

score: drop _PAGE_FILE and pte_file()-related helpers

2018-10-03T03:09:57+00:00

commit 917e401ea75478d4f4575bc8b0ef3d14ecf9ef69 upstream.

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

This patch also increase number of bits availble for swap offset.

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.

arch: Remove stub cputime.h headers

2014-03-13T15:09:30+00:00

Many architectures have a stub cputime.h that only include the default
cputime.h

Lets remove the useless headers, we only need to mention that we want
the default headers on the Kbuild files.
