      MIPS: Merge overlapping bootmem ranges · 0ec7ec75
      Ralf Baechle 提交于
      Without this, we may end up with something like this in /proc/iomem:
      
      01100000-014fffff : System RAM
        01100000-013bf48f : Kernel code
        013bf490-0149e01f : Kernel data
      01500000-0c0fffff : System RAM
      
      but the two System RAM ranges should be one single range.  This particular
      case will result in kexec failure on Octeon systems if the kernel being
      loaded by kexec is bigger than the already running kernel.

      vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return it · 91a27b2a
      Jeff Layton 提交于
      getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
      kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
      however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
      the string.
      
      For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
      amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
      we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
      need to recopy it from userspace.
      
      This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
      a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
      string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
      
      Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
      convenient.

      mips,kgdb: fix recursive page fault with CONFIG_KPROBES · f0a996ee
      Jason Wessel 提交于
      This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it
      crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds
      an extra die notifier in the page fault handler.  The crash signature
      looks like this:
      
      kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test
      KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed
      Call Trace:
      [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
      [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
      
      The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type
      is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed
      to happen.

      kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax · b1e0d8b7
      Jean Delvare 提交于
      The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not
      "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former
      is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers
      such as icecream do expect.
      
      This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from
      recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel
      miscompilations.
      
      Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for
      investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this
      incorrect -x parameter syntax.

      Make most arch asm/module.h files use asm-generic/module.h · 786d35d4
      David Howells 提交于
      Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
      ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
      into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
      
      Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
      
      To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
      
       (*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
      
           Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
           mod_arch_specific struct.
      
       (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
      
           Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records.  This causes
           the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
           defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
      
       (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
      
           Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records.  This causes
           the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
           defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
      
      Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
      two arches that do this.
      
      With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
      with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
      
      Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
      unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.
