tile: provide CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_64KB etc for tilepro

2016-01-05T13:16:09+00:00

This allows the build system to know that it can't attempt to configure the Lustre virtual block device, for example, when tilepro is using 64KB pages (as it does by default). The tilegx build already provided those symbols. Previously we required that the tilepro hypervisor be rebuilt with a different hardcoded page size in its headers, and then Linux be rebuilt using the updated hypervisor header. Now we allow each of the hypervisor and Linux to be built independently. We still check at boot time to ensure that the page size provided by the hypervisor matches what Linux expects.

kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code

2015-09-10T20:29:01+00:00

There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load. kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c. In this patch I split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c. And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse. The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled. But kexec-tools use kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking. Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel. KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work. Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig. Also updated general kernel code with to kexec_load syscall. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Dave Young Cc: Eric W.

EDAC: Cleanup atomic_scrub mess

2015-05-28T13:31:53+00:00

So first of all, this atomic_scrub() function's naming is bad. It looks like an atomic_t helper. Change it to edac_atomic_scrub(). The bigger problem is that this function is arch-specific and every new arch which doesn't necessarily need that functionality still needs to define it, otherwise EDAC doesn't compile. So instead of doing that and including arch-specific headers, have each arch define an EDAC_ATOMIC_SCRUB symbol which can be used in edac_mc.c for ifdeffery. Much cleaner. And we already are doing this with another symbol - EDAC_SUPPORT. This is also much cleaner than having CONFIG_EDAC enumerate all the arches which need/have EDAC support and drivers. This way I can kill the useless edac.h header in tile too.

tile: improve stack backtrace

2015-05-11T15:22:40+00:00

This commit fixes a number of issues with the tile backtrace code. - Don't try to identify userspace shared object or executable paths if we are doing a backtrace from an interrupt; it's not legal, and also unlikely to be interesting. Likewise, don't try to do it for other address spaces, since d_path() assumes it is being called in "current" context. - Move "in_backtrace" from thread_struct to thread_info. This way we can access it even if our stack thread_info has been clobbered, which makes backtracing more robust. - Avoid using "current" directly when testing for is_sigreturn(). Since "current" may be corrupt, we're better off using kbt->task explicitly to look up the vdso_base for the current task. Conveniently, this simplifies the internal APIs (we only need one is_sigreturn() function now). - Avoid bogus "Odd fault" warning when pc/sp/ex1 are all zero, as is true for kernel threads above the last frame. - Hook into Tejun Heo's dump_stack() framework in lib/dump_stack.c. - Write last entry in save_stack_trace() as ULONG_MAX, not zero, since ftrace (at least) relies on finding that marker. - Implement save_stack_trace_regs() and save_strack_trace_user(), and set CONFIG_USER_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT.

tile: add and enable support functions

2015-04-30T19:23:37+00:00

This change enables the generic strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user() using word-at-a-time.h. The tile implementation is trivial since both tilepro and tilegx have SIMD operations that do byte-wise comparisons against immediate zero for each byte, and return an 0x01 byte in each position where there is a 0x00 byte.

2015-04-17T18:01:10+00:00

Add the TIF_NOHZ flag appropriately. Add call to user_exit() on entry to do_work_pending() and on entry to syscalls via do_syscall_trace_enter(), and also the top of do_syscall_trace_exit() just because it's done in x86. Add call to user_enter() at the bottom of do_work_pending() once we have no more work to do before returning to userspace. Wrap all the trap code in exception_enter() / exception_exit().
