      function-graph: add stack frame test · 71e308a2
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
      from function code, we would like to detect that.
      
      An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
      function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
      when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
      this purpose.
      
      This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
      frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.
      
      There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
      few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
      return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
      not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
      to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
      graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
      this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
      was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.
      
      This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.
      
      This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
      specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
      the new prototype.
      
      Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
      This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
      used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

      kmap_types: make most arches use generic header file · e4c9dd0f
      Randy Dunlap 提交于
      Convert most arches to use asm-generic/kmap_types.h.
      
      Move the KM_FENCE_ macro additions into asm-generic/kmap_types.h,
      controlled by __WITH_KM_FENCE from each arch's kmap_types.h file.
      
      Would be nice to be able to add custom KM_types per arch, but I don't yet
      see a nice, clean way to do that.
      
      Built on x86_64, i386, mips, sparc, alpha(tonyb), powerpc(tonyb), and
      68k(tonyb).
      
      Note: avr32 should be able to remove KM_PTE2 (since it's not used) and
      then just use the generic kmap_types.h file.  Get avr32 maintainer
      approval.

      mm: consolidate init_mm definition · bb1f17b0
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      * create mm/init-mm.c, move init_mm there
      * remove INIT_MM, initialize init_mm with C99 initializer
      * unexport init_mm on all arches:
      
        init_mm is already unexported on x86.
      
        One strange place is some OMAP driver (drivers/video/omap/) which
        won't build modular, but it's already wants get_vm_area() export.
        Somebody should look there.
