      arch/tile: remove dead code from intvec_32.S · ea44e06e
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This "bpt_code" instruction was killed off in our development line a while
      ago (the actual definition of bpt_code that is used is in kernel/traps.c)
      but I didn't push it for 2.6.36 because it seemed harmless and I didn't
      want to try to push more than absolutely necessary.
      
      However, we recently fixed a bug in our gcc that had been causing
      "-gdwarf2" not to be passed to the assembler, and passing this flag causes
      an erroneous assembler failure in the presence of code in a data section,
      sometimes.  While we'd like to track down the bug in the assembler,
      we'd also like to make sure 2.6.36 builds with the current toolchain,
      so I'm removing this dead code as well.

      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer · d7627467
      David Howells 提交于
      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
      correctly on ARM:
      
      arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
      
      This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
      the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
      because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
      copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
      pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
      
      do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
      or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
      const should be fine.
      
      Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.
      
      This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

      arch/tile: extend syscall ABI to set r1 on return as well. · ba00376b
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      Until now, the tile architecture ABI for syscall return has just been
      that r0 holds the return value, and an error is only signalled like it is
      for kernel code, with a negative small number.
      
      However, this means that in multiple places in userspace we end up writing
      the same three-cycle idiom that tests for a small negative number for
      error.  It seems cleaner to instead move that code into the kernel, and
      set r1 to hold zero on success or errno on failure; previously, r1 was
      just zeroed on return from the kernel (to avoid leaking kernel state).
      This way a single conditional branch after the syscall is sufficient
      to test for the failure case.  The number of cycles taken is the same,
      but the error-checking code is in just one place, so total code size is
      smaller, and random userspace syscall code is easier to understand.

      arch/tile: catch up on various minor cleanups. · ef06f55a
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      None of these changes fix any actual bugs, but are just various cleanups
      that fell out along the way.  In particular, some unused #defines and
      includes are removed, PREFETCH_STRIDE is added (the default is right for
      our shipping chips, but wrong for our next generation), our tile-specific
      prefetching code is removed so the (identical) generic prefetching code
      can be used instead, a comment is fixed to be proper GPL and not just a
      "paste GPL here" token, a "//" comment is converted to "/* */", etc.
