scripts/spelling.txt: add "efective" pattern and fix typo instances

2017-02-28T02:43:46+00:00

Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt:

  efective||effective

While we are here, fix the "addres" as well in the touched line in
arch/openrisc/kernel/entry.S.

scripts/spelling.txt: add "aligment" pattern and fix typo instances

2017-02-28T02:43:46+00:00

Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt:

  aligment||alignment

I did not touch the "N_BYTE_ALIGMENT" macro in
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/wifi.h to avoid unpredictable
impact.

I fixed "_aligment_handler" in arch/openrisc/kernel/entry.S because
it is surrounded by #if 0 ... #endif.  It is surely safe and I
confirmed "_alignment_handler" is correct.

I also fixed the "controler" I found in the same hunk in
arch/openrisc/kernel/head.S.

openrisc: entry: Fix delay slot detection

2017-02-24T19:31:06+00:00

Use execption SR stored in pt_regs for detection, the current SR is not
correct as the handler is running after return from exception.

Also, The code that checks for a delay slot uses a flag bitmask and then
wants to check if the result is not zero.  The test it implemented was
wrong.

Correct it by changing the test to check result against non zero.

openrisc: entry: Whitespace and comment cleanups

2017-02-24T19:31:05+00:00

Cleanups to whitespace and add some comments. Reading through the delay
slot logic I noticed some things:
 - Delay slot instructions were not indented
 - Some comments are not lined up
 - Use tabs and spaces consistent with other code

No functional change

openrisc: add l.lwa/l.swa emulation

2017-02-06T12:50:43+00:00

This adds an emulation layer for implementations
that lack the l.lwa and l.swa instructions.
It handles these instructions both in kernel space and
user space.

openrisc: include l.swa in check for write data pagefault

2016-12-12T14:10:26+00:00

During page fault handling we check the last instruction to understand
if the fault was for a read or for a write.  By default we fall back to
read.  New instructions were added to the openrisc 1.1 spec for an
atomic load/store pair (l.lwa/l.swa).

This patch adds the opcode for l.swa (0x33) allowing it to be treated as
a write operation.

openrisc: restore all regs on rt_sigreturn

2016-12-12T14:09:16+00:00

Fix signal handling for when signals are handled as the result of timers
or exceptions, previous code assumed syscalls. This was noticeable with X
crashing where it uses SIGALRM.

This patch restores all regs before returning to userspace via
_resume_userspace instead of via syscall return path.

The rt_sigreturn syscall is more like a context switch than a function
call; it entails a return from one context (the signal handler) to another
(the process in question).  For a context switch like this there are
effectively no call-saved regs that remain constant across the transition.

openrisc: Rework signal handling

2014-01-09T09:57:21+00:00

The mainline signal handling code for OpenRISC has been buggy since day
one with respect to syscall restart.  This patch significantly reworks
the signal handling code:

i)   Move the "work pending" loop to C code (borrowed from ARM arch)

ii)  Allow a tracer to muck about with the IP and skip syscall restart
     in that case (again, borrowed from ARM)

iii) Make signal handling WRT syscall restart actually work

v)   Make the signal handling code look more like that of other
     architectures so that it's easier for others to follow

Merge branch 'for-upstream' of git://openrisc.net/jonas/linux

2013-02-27T03:46:23+00:00

Pull OpenRISC updates from Jonas Bonn:
 "An equal number of bug fixes and trivial cleanups; no new features.

   - Two patches to fix errors thrown by the updated toolchain.

   - Three other bug fixes.

   - Four trivial cleanups."

* 'for-upstream' of git://openrisc.net/jonas/linux:
  openrisc: add missing header inclusion
  openrisc: really pass correct arg to schedule_tail
  Add bitops include needed for ext2 filesystem
  openrisc: update DTLB-miss handler last
  openrisc: fix up vmalloc page table loading
  openrisc idle: delete pm_idle
  openrisc: remove CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
  openrisc: avoid using function parameter regs in reset vector
  openrisc: remove unused current_regs

openrisc: really pass correct arg to schedule_tail

2013-02-17T07:46:21+00:00

Commit 287ad220cd8b5a9d29f71c78f6e4051093f051fc tried to set up the argument
to schedule_tail, but ended up using TI_STACK which isn't a defined symbol.
Sadly, the old openrisc compiler silently ignores this fact and it was first
discovered now when building with an updated toolchain.
