powerpc/vdso: Fix vdso cpu truncation

2020-07-16T03:12:47+00:00

The code in vdso_cpu_init that exposes the cpu and numa node to
userspace via SPRG_VDSO incorrctly masks the cpu to 12 bits. This means
that any kernel running on a box with more than 4096 threads (NR_CPUS
advertises a limit of of 8192 cpus) would expose userspace to two cpu
contexts running at the same time with the same cpu number.

Note: I'm not aware of any distro shipping a kernel with support for more
than 4096 threads today, nor of any system image that currently exceeds
4096 threads. Found via code browsing.

mmap locking API: use coccinelle to convert mmap_sem rwsem call sites

2020-06-09T16:39:14+00:00

This change converts the existing mmap_sem rwsem calls to use the new mmap
locking API instead.

The change is generated using coccinelle with the following rule:

// spatch --sp-file mmap_lock_api.cocci --in-place --include-headers --dir .

mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes  to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include 
in the files that include .

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include ") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include / d' $f
	done

powerpc/vdso: remove deprecated VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS references

2020-03-13T10:13:06+00:00

The original 2005 patch that introduced the powerpc vdso, pre-git
("ppc64: Implement a vDSO and use it for signal trampoline") notes that:

  ... symbols exposed by the vDSO aren't "normal" function symbols, apps
  can't be expected to link against them directly, the vDSO's are both
  seen as if they were linked at 0 and the symbols just contain offsets
  to the various functions.  This is done on purpose to avoid a
  relocation step (ppc64 functions normally have descriptors with abs
  addresses in them).  When glibc uses those functions, it's expected to
  use it's own trampolines that know how to reach them.

Despite that explanation, there remains dead #ifdef
VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS code-blocks that provide alternate function
definitions that setup function descriptors.

Since VDS64_HAS_DESCRIPTORS has been unused for all these years, we
might as well finally remove it from the codebase.

powerpc/vdso: don't clear PG_reserved

2019-03-06T05:07:18+00:00

The VDSO is part of the kernel image and therefore the struct pages are
marked as reserved during boot.

As we install a special mapping, the actual struct pages will never be
exposed to MM via the page tables.  We can therefore leave the pages
marked as reserved.

powerpc: split compat syscall table out from native table

2018-12-21T03:46:50+00:00

PowerPC uses a syscall table with native and compat calls
interleaved, which is a slightly simpler way to define two
matching tables.

As we move to having the tables generated, that advantage
is no longer important, but the interleaved table gets in
the way of using the same scripts as on the other archit-
ectures.

Split out a new compat_sys_call_table symbol that contains
all the compat calls, and leave the main table for the nat-
ive calls, to more closely match the method we use every-
where else.
