      [S390] arch_setup_additional_pages arguments · fc5243d9
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      arch_setup_additional_pages currently gets two arguments, the binary
      format descripton and an indication if the process uses an executable
      stack or not. The second argument is not used by anybody, it could
      be removed without replacement.
      
      What actually does make sense is to pass an indication if the process
      uses the elf interpreter or not. The glibc code will not use anything
      from the vdso if the process does not use the dynamic linker, so for
      statically linked binaries the architecture backend can choose not
      to map the vdso.

      tracing/ftrace: don't trace on early stage of a secondary cpu boot, v3 · 0ca59dd9
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Impact: fix a crash/hard-reboot on certain configs while enabling cpu runtime
      
      On some archs, the boot of a secondary cpu can have an early fragile state.
      On x86-64, the pda is not initialized on the first stage of a cpu boot but
      it is needed to get the cpu number and the current task pointer. This data
      is needed during tracing. As they were dereferenced at this stage, we got a
      crash while tracing a cpu being enabled at runtime.
      
      Some other archs like ia64 can have such kind of issue too.
      
      Changes on v2:
      
      We dropped the previous solution of a per-arch called function to guess the
      current state of a cpu. That could slow down the tracing.
      
      This patch removes the -pg flag on arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c where
      the low level cpu boot functions exist, on start_secondary() and a helper
      function used at this stage.
