sparc64: Replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy

2023-06-14T19:04:06+00:00

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first.
This read may exceed the destination size limit.
This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read
overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1].
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace
strlcpy() here with strscpy().
No return values were used, so direct replacement is safe.

initrd: remove support for multiple floppies

2020-07-30T06:22:33+00:00

Remove the special handling for multiple floppies in the initrd code.
No one should be using floppies for booting these days. (famous last
words..)

Includes a spelling fix from Colin Ian King .

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

sparc: add checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()

2019-03-12T17:04:02+00:00

Add panic() calls if memblock_alloc*() returns NULL.

Most of the changes are simply addition of

        if(!ptr)
                panic();

statements after the calls to memblock_alloc*() variants.

Exceptions are pcpu_populate_pte() and kernel_map_range() that were
slightly refactored to accommodate the change.

sparc: Set "ARCH: sunxx" information on the same line

2018-12-21T19:24:38+00:00

While checking boot log from SPARC qemu, I saw that the "ARCH: sunxx"
information was split on two different line.
This patchs merge both line together.
In the meantime, thoses information need to be printed via pr_info
since printk print them by default via the warning loglevel.
