      ptrace: move user_enable_single_step & co prototypes to linux/ptrace.h · dacbe41f
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      While in theory user_enable_single_step/user_disable_single_step/
      user_enable_blockstep could also be provided as an inline or macro there's
      no good reason to do so, and having the prototype in one places keeps code
      size and confusion down.
      
      Roland said:
      
        The original thought there was that user_enable_single_step() et al
        might well be only an instruction or three on a sane machine (as if we
        have any of those!), and since there is only one call site inlining
        would be beneficial.  But I agree that there is no strong reason to care
        about inlining it.
      
        As to the arch changes, there is only one thought I'd add to the
        record.  It was always my thinking that for an arch where
        PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does text-modifying breakpoint insertion,
        user_enable_single_step() should not be provided.  That is,
        arch_has_single_step()=>true means that there is an arch facility with
        "pure" semantics that does not have any unexpected side effects.
        Inserting a breakpoint might do very unexpected strange things in
        multi-threaded situations.  Aside from that, it is a peculiar side
        effect that user_{enable,disable}_single_step() should cause COW
        de-sharing of text pages and so forth.  For PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, all these
        peculiarities are the status quo ante for that arch, so having
        arch_ptrace() itself do those is one thing.  But for building other
        things in the future, it is nicer to have a uniform "pure" semantics
        that arch-independent code can expect.
      
        OTOH, all such arch issues are really up to the arch maintainer.  As
        of today, there is nothing but ptrace using user_enable_single_step() et
        al so it's a distinction without a practical difference.  If/when there
        are other facilities that use user_enable_single_step() and might care,
        the affected arch's can revisit the question when someone cares about
        the quality of the arch support for said new facility.

      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      On an architecture that supports 32-bit compat we need to override the

      separately in every architecture introduce a COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE define in

      elf coredump: replace ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* macros by functions · 1fcccbac
      Daisuke HATAYAMA 提交于
      elf_core_dump() and elf_fdpic_core_dump() use #ifdef and the corresponding

      #ifdef and replaces ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* by corresponding functions.  For
      architectures not implemeonting ELF_CORE_EXTRA_*, we use weak functions in
      order to reduce a range of modification.

      [IA64] Only build arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.o when CONFIG_ACPI · d868080d
      Alex Chiang 提交于
      The following commit broke the ia64 sim_defconfig build:
      	3b2b84c0b81108a9a869a88bf2beeb5a95d81dd1
      	ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC
      
      This is because it added:
      	+#include <acpi/processor.h>
      
      To arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.c. Unfortunately, the ia64_simdefconfig does
      not turn on CONFIG_ACPI, and we get build errors.
      
      The fix described in $subject seems to be the most sensible way to
      untangle the mess.
      
      The other issue is that acpi_get_sysname() is required for all configs,
      most of which define CONFIG_ACPI, but are not CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC. Turn
      it into an inline to cover the "non generic" ia64 configs; to prevent
      a duplicate definition build error, we need to wrap the definition in
      acpi.o inside an #ifdef.
      
      Finally, move the pm_idle and pm_power_off exports into process.c (which
      is always built), similar to other architectures, and allow the sim
      defconfig to link.

      MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself · 4b3073e1
      Russell King 提交于
      On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
      in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
      copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
      uncacheable.
      
      This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
      now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
      for modification via update_mmu_cache().
      
      Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
      update_mmu_cache():
      
        On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
        to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
        more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
        pte_t?
      
      Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:
      
        Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
        -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
        for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
        _PAGE_EXEC.
      
      So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
      remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
      suit.

      [IA64] preserve personality flag bits across exec · 22208ac5
      Tony Luck 提交于
      In its <asm/elf.h> ia64 defines SET_PERSONALITY in a way that unconditionally
      sets the personality of the current process to PER_LINUX, losing any flag bits
      from the upper 3 bytes of current->personality.  This is wrong. Those bits are
      intended to be inherited across exec (other code takes care of ensuring that
      security sensitive bits like ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE are not passed to unsuspecting
      setuid/setgid applications).

      The only thing arch-specific about calling _PDC is what bits get

      There's no need for several levels of indirection to twiddle those
      bits. Additionally, since we're just messing around with a buffer,
      we can simplify the interface; no need to pass around the entire

      block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages · 2d4dc890
      Ilya Loginov 提交于
      Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
      this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
      the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.
      
      The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
      pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
      flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
      flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
      equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.
