arch: define CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_*KB on all architectures

2024-03-06T18:29:09+00:00

Most architectures only support a single hardcoded page size. In order
to ensure that each one of these sets the corresponding Kconfig symbols,
change over the PAGE_SHIFT definition to the common one and allow
only the hardware page size to be selected.

mm/fault: convert remaining simple cases to lock_mm_and_find_vma()

2023-06-24T21:12:58+00:00

This does the simple pattern conversion of alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa to the lock_mm_and_find_vma()
helper.  They all have the regular fault handling pattern without odd
special cases.

The remaining architectures all have something that keeps us from a
straightforward conversion: ia64 and parisc have stacks that can grow
both up as well as down (and ia64 has special address region checks).

And m68k, microblaze, openrisc, sparc64, and um end up having extra
rules about only expanding the stack down a limited amount below the
user space stack pointer.  That is something that x86 used to do too
(long long ago), and it probably could just be skipped, but it still
makes the conversion less than trivial.

Note that this conversion was done manually and with the exception of
alpha without any build testing, because I have a fairly limited cross-
building environment.  The cases are all simple, and I went through the
changes several times, but...

Kconfig: introduce HAS_IOPORT option and select it as necessary

2023-04-05T20:15:19+00:00

We introduce a new HAS_IOPORT Kconfig option to indicate support for I/O
Port access. In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable compilation of
the I/O accessor functions inb()/outb() and friends on architectures
which can not meaningfully support legacy I/O spaces such as s390.

The following architectures do not select HAS_IOPORT:

* ARC
* C-SKY
* Hexagon
* Nios II
* OpenRISC
* s390
* User-Mode Linux
* Xtensa

All other architectures select HAS_IOPORT at least conditionally.

The "depends on" relations on HAS_IOPORT in drivers as well as ifdefs
for HAS_IOPORT specific sections will be added in subsequent patches on
a per subsystem basis.

alpha: Implement "current_stack_pointer"

2023-02-14T17:36:22+00:00

To follow the existing per-arch conventions replace open-coded use
of asm "$30" as "current_stack_pointer". This will let it be used in
non-arch places (like HARDENED_USERCOPY).

arch/*/: remove CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS

2022-06-28T11:20:21+00:00

All architecture-independent users of virt_to_bus() and bus_to_virt()
have been fixed to use the dma mapping interfaces or have been
removed now.  This means the definitions on most architectures, and the
CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS symbol are now obsolete and can be removed.

The only exceptions to this are a few network and scsi drivers for m68k
Amiga and VME machines and ppc32 Macintosh. These drivers work correctly
with the old interfaces and are probably not worth changing.

On alpha and parisc, virt_to_bus() were still used in asm/floppy.h.
alpha can use isa_virt_to_bus() like x86 does, and parisc can just
open-code the virt_to_phys() here, as this is architecture specific
code.

I tried updating the bus-virt-phys-mapping.rst documentation, which
started as an email from Linus to explain some details of the Linux-2.0
driver interfaces. The bits about virt_to_bus() were declared obsolete
backin 2000, and the rest is not all that relevant any more, so in the
end I just decided to remove the file completely.

Merge tag 'asm-generic-5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic

2022-03-24T01:03:08+00:00

Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree:

   - The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good.

     This was already gone from all major architectures, but now we can
     finally remove it everywhere, which loses some particularly tricky
     and error-prone code. There is a small merge conflict against a
     parisc cleanup, the solution is to use their new version.

   - The nds32 architecture ends its tenure in the Linux kernel.

     The hardware is still used and the code is in reasonable shape, but
     the mainline port is not actively maintained any more, as all
     remaining users are thought to run vendor kernels that would never
     be updated to a future release.

   - A series from Masahiro Yamada cleans up some of the uapi header
     files to pass the compile-time checks"

a.out: Stop building a.out/osf1 support on alpha and m68k

2022-03-10T16:01:51+00:00

There has been repeated discussion on removing a.out support, the most
recent was[1].  Having read through a bunch of the discussion it looks
like no one has see any reason why we need to keep a.out support.

The m68k maintainer has even come out in favor of removing a.out
support[2].

At a practical level with only two rarely used architectures building
a.out support, it gets increasingly hard to test and to care about.
Which means the code will almost certainly bit-rot.

Let's see if anyone cares about a.out support on the last two
architectures that build it, by disabling the build of the support in
Kconfig.  If anyone cares, this can be easily reverted, and we can then
have a discussion about what it is going to take to support a.out
binaries in the long term.
