powerpc/32s: Enable CONFIG_VMAP_STACK

2020-01-27T11:37:24+00:00

A few changes to retrieve DAR and DSISR from struct regs
instead of retrieving them directly, as they may have
changed due to a TLB miss.

Also modifies hash_page() and friends to work with virtual
data addresses instead of physical ones. Same on load_up_fpu()
and load_up_altivec().

powerpc/64: Don't trace code that runs with the soft irq mask unreconciled

2019-05-02T15:58:11+00:00

"Reconciling" in terms of interrupt handling, is to bring the soft irq
mask state in to synch with the hardware, after an interrupt causes
MSR[EE] to be cleared (while the soft mask may be enabled, and hard
irqs not marked disabled).

General kernel code should not be called while unreconciled, because
local_irq_disable, etc. manipulations can cause surprising irq traces,
and it's fragile because the soft irq code does not really expect to
be called in this situation.

When exiting from an interrupt, MSR[EE] is cleared to prevent races,
but soft irq state is enabled for the returned-to context, so this is
now an unreconciled state. restore_math is called in this state, and
that can be ftraced, and the ftrace subsystem disables local irqs.

Mark restore_math and its callees as notrace. Restore a sanity check
in the soft irq code that had to be disabled for this case, by commit
4da1f79227ad4 ("powerpc/64: Disable irq restore warning for now").

Merge branch 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild

2016-10-14T21:26:58+00:00

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:

 - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.

   This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
   checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
   working on a patch to fix this.

   Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
   change prototypes.

 - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
   Piggin

 - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.

 - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
   -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections

 - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell

 - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.

powerpc: Add the ability to save FPU without giving it up

2016-03-02T12:34:49+00:00

This patch adds the ability to be able to save the FPU registers to the
thread struct without giving up (disabling the facility) next time the
process returns to userspace.

This patch optimises the thread copy path (as a result of a fork() or
clone()) so that the parent thread can return to userspace with hot
registers avoiding a possibly pointless reload of FPU register state.
