alpha: align stack for page fault and user unaligned trap handlers

2025-03-13T11:50:40+00:00

commit 3b35a171060f846b08b48646b38c30b5d57d17ff upstream. do_page_fault() and do_entUna() are special because they use non-standard stack frame layout. Fix them manually.

exit: Add and use make_task_dead.

2023-02-01T07:27:20+00:00

commit 0e25498f8cd43c1b5aa327f373dd094e9a006da7 upstream. There are two big uses of do_exit. The first is it's design use to be the guts of the exit(2) system call. The second use is to terminate a task after something catastrophic has happened like a NULL pointer in kernel code. Add a function make_task_dead that is initialy exactly the same as do_exit to cover the cases where do_exit is called to handle catastrophic failure. In time this can probably be reduced to just a light wrapper around do_task_dead. For now keep it exactly the same so that there will be no behavioral differences introducing this new concept. Replace all of the uses of do_exit that use it for catastraphic task cleanup with make_task_dead to make it clear what the code is doing. As part of this rename rewind_stack_do_exit rewind_stack_and_make_dead. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

signal/alpha: si_trapno is only used with SIGFPE and SIGTRAP TRAP_UNK

2021-07-23T18:10:26+00:00

While reviewing the signal handlers on alpha it became clear that si_trapno is only set to a non-zero value when sending SIGFPE and when sending SITGRAP with si_code TRAP_UNK. Add send_sig_fault_trapno and send SIGTRAP TRAP_UNK, and SIGFPE with it. Remove the define of __ARCH_SI_TRAPNO and remove the always zero si_trapno parameter from send_sig_fault and force_sig_fault. v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/m1eeers7q7.fsf_-_@fess.ebiederm.org v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210505141101.11519-7-ebiederm@xmission.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87h7gvxx7l.fsf_-_@disp2133 Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

alpha: remove DISCONTIGMEM and NUMA

2021-06-29T17:53:55+00:00

Patch series "Remove DISCONTIGMEM memory model", v3. SPARSEMEM memory model was supposed to entirely replace DISCONTIGMEM a (long) while ago. The last architectures that used DISCONTIGMEM were updated to use other memory models in v5.11 and it is about the time to entirely remove DISCONTIGMEM from the kernel. This set removes DISCONTIGMEM from alpha, arc and m68k, simplifies memory model selection in mm/Kconfig and replaces usage of redundant CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES and CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP with CONFIG_NUMA and CONFIG_FLATMEM respectively. I've also removed NUMA support on alpha that was BROKEN for more than 15 years. There were also minor updates all over arch/ to remove mentions of DISCONTIGMEM in comments and #ifdefs. This patch (of 9): NUMA is marked broken on alpha for more than 15 years and DISCONTIGMEM was replaced with SPARSEMEM in v5.11. Remove both NUMA and DISCONTIGMEM support from alpha.

mm/alpha: use general page fault accounting

Use the general page fault accounting by passing regs into handle_mm_fault(). Add the missing PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS perf events too. Note, the other two perf events (PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS_[MAJ|MIN]) were done in handle_mm_fault().

mm: do page fault accounting in handle_mm_fault

2020-08-12T17:58:02+00:00

Patch series "mm: Page fault accounting cleanups", v5. This is v5 of the pf accounting cleanup series. It originates from Gerald Schaefer's report on an issue a week ago regarding to incorrect page fault accountings for retried page fault after commit 4064b9827063 ("mm: allow VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times"): https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200610174811.44b94525@thinkpad/ What this series did: - Correct page fault accounting: we do accounting for a page fault (no matter whether it's from #PF handling, or gup, or anything else) only with the one that completed the fault. For example, page fault retries should not be counted in page fault counters. Same to the perf events. - Unify definition of PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS: currently this perf event is used in an adhoc way across different archs. Case (1): for many archs it's done at the entry of a page fault handler, so that it will also cover e.g. errornous faults. Case (2): for some other archs, it is only accounted when the page fault is resolved successfully. Case (3): there're still quite some archs that have not enabled this perf event. Since this series will touch merely all the archs, we unify this perf event to always follow case (1), which is the one that makes most sense. And since we moved the accounting into handle_mm_fault, the other two MAJ/MIN perf events are well taken care of naturally. - Unify definition of "major faults": the definition of "major fault" is slightly changed when used in accounting (not VM_FAULT_MAJOR). More information in patch 1. - Always account the page fault onto the one that triggered the page fault. This does not matter much for #PF handlings, but mostly for gup. More information on this in patch 25. Patchset layout: Patch 1: Introduced the accounting in handle_mm_fault(), not enabled. Patch 2-23: Enable the new accounting for arch #PF handlers one by one. Patch 24: Enable the new accounting for the rest outliers (gup, iommu, etc.) Patch 25: Cleanup GUP task_struct pointer since it's not needed any more This patch (of 25): This is a preparation patch to move page fault accountings into the general code in handle_mm_fault(). This includes both the per task flt_maj/flt_min counters, and the major/minor page fault perf events. To do this, the pt_regs pointer is passed into handle_mm_fault(). PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS should still be kept in per-arch page fault handlers. So far, all the pt_regs pointer that passed into handle_mm_fault() is NULL, which means this patch should have no intented functional change.

mm: remove unneeded includes of

2020-08-07T18:33:26+00:00

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of " Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add generic versions of these functions in and enable use of the generic functions where appropriate. In addition, functions declared and defined in headers are used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no actual reason to have the included all over the place. The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving pXd_alloc_track() definitions to would require unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local to mm/. This patch (of 8): In most cases header is required only for allocations of page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not use symbols declared in and do not require that header. As for the other header files that used to include , it is possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols from and drop the include from the header file. The process was somewhat automated using sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \ $(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \ $(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h')) where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.
