sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:36+00:00

We are going to split  out of , which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder  file that just
maps to  to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

MIPS: syscall: Return directly in mips_mmap()

2017-01-25T01:51:11+00:00

* Return an error code without storing it in an intermediate variable.

* Delete the local variable "result" which became unnecessary with
  this refactoring.

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

  PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*'
  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

MIPS: kernel: syscall: Set the appropriate ISA level for MIPS R6

2015-02-17T15:37:29+00:00

MIPS R6 changed the opcodes for LL/SC instructions so we need to set
the appropriate ISA level.

MIPS: Apply `.insn' to fixup labels throughout

2014-11-24T06:45:36+00:00

Fix the issue with the ISA bit being lost in fixups that jump to labels
placed just before a section switch.  Such a switch leads to the ISA bit
being lost, because GAS concludes there is no code that follows and
therefore the label refers to data.  Use the `.insn' pseudo-op to
convince the tool this is not the case.

This lack of label annotation leads to microMIPS compilation errors
like:

mips-linux-gnu-ld: arch/mips/built-in.o: .fixup+0x3b8: Unsupported jump between ISA modes; consider recompiling with interlinking enabled.
mips-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: Bad value

MIPS: Fix gigaton of warning building with microMIPS.

2014-03-31T16:17:12+00:00

With binutils 2.24 the attempt to switch with microMIPS mode to MIPS III
mode through .set mips3 results in *lots* of warnings like

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:397: Warning: the 64-bit MIPS architecture does not support the `smartmips' extension

during a kernel build.  Fixed by using .set arch=r4000 instead.

This breaks support for building the kernel with binutils 2.13 which
was supported for 32 bit kernels only anyway and 2.14 which was a bad
vintage for MIPS anyway.

Merge branch 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus

2013-03-02T15:44:16+00:00

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:

 o Add basic support for the Mediatek/Ralink Wireless SoC family.

 o The Qualcomm Atheros platform is extended by support for the new
   QCA955X SoC series as well as a bunch of patches that get the code
   ready for OF support.

 o Lantiq and BCM47XX platform have a few improvements and bug fixes.

 o MIPS has sent a few patches that get the kernel ready for the
   upcoming microMIPS support.

 o The rest of the series is made up of small bug fixes and cleanups
   that relate to various parts of the MIPS code.  The biggy in there is
   a whitespace cleanup.  After I was sent another set of whitespace
   cleanup patches I decided it was the time to clean the whitespace
   "issues" for once and and that touches many files below arch/mips/.

Fix up silly conflicts, mostly due to whitespace cleanups.

mips: switch to generic sys_fork() and sys_clone()

2013-02-03T23:33:02+00:00

we still need the wrappers to store callee-saved registers in
pt_regs, but once that done we can jump to kernel/fork.c variants.
