Impact: make ENTRY()/END() macros more capable It's usefull to catch unbalanced or messed or mixed declarations of ENTRY and KPROBES. These macros would help a bit. For example the following code would compile without problems ENTRY_X86(mcount) retq END_X86(mcount) But if you forget and mess the following form ENTRY_X86(mcount) retq END(mcount) ENTRY_X86(ftrace_caller) The assembler will issue the following message: Error: ENTRY_X86/KPROBE_X86 unbalanced,missed,mixed Actually the checking is performed at every _X86 macro so maybe it's good idea to put ENTRY_KPROBE_FINAL_X86 at the end of .S file to be sure you didn't miss anything.

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since: a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless. b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints. Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/. The format: 1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved. 2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h. 3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single underscores. Signed-off-by: NVegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>

notrace signals that a function should not be traced. Most of the time this is used by tracers to annotate code that cannot be traced - it's in a volatile state (such as in user vdso context or NMI context) or it's in the tracer internals. Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

It's really a pretty ugly thing to need, and some day it will hopefully be obviated by teaching gcc about the magic calling conventions for the low-level system call code, but in the meantime we can at least add big honking comments about why we need these insane and strange macros. I took my comments from my version of the macro, but I ended up deciding to just pick Roland's version of the actual code instead (with his prettier syntax that uses vararg macros). Thus the previous two commits that actually implement it. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs. The tail/sibling-call optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent. Other optimizations can do it too. Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all the manifestations of this issue that crop up. More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument variables live at the end of the function. This makes their original stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler tends not clobber them for something else. It's still no guarantee, but it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

introduce the "asmregparm" calling convention: for functions implemented in assembly with a fixed regparm input parameters calling convention. mark the semaphore and rwsem slowpath functions with that.

Remove definitions of FASTCALL/fastcall from linkage_32 as compiled with -regparm=3 by default since 2.6.20 and should no longer be needed. CONFIG X86_64 and CONFIG_X86_ALIGNMENT_16 are mutually exclusive as found in Kconfig.cpu so it should be fine to test them separately.
