powerpc/module: Remove arch specific module bug stuff

2024-05-03T10:46:51+00:00

The last function to reference module_bug_list went in 2008's commit b9754568ef17 ("powerpc: Remove dead module_find_bug code") but I don't think that was called since 2006's commit 73c9ceab40b1 ("[POWERPC] Generic BUG for powerpc") Now that the list has gone, I think we can also clean up the bug entries in mod_arch_specific. Lightly boot tested. Signed-off-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Link: https://msgid.link/20240503002317.183500-1-linux@treblig.org

powerpc/module: Remove unused .ftrace.tramp section

.ftrace.tramp section is not used for any purpose. This code was added all the way back in the original commit introducing support for dynamic ftrace on ppc64 modules. Remove it.

powerpc/64: modules support building with PCREL addresing

2023-04-20T03:21:42+00:00

Build modules using PCREL addressing when CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PCREL=y. - The module loader must handle several new relocation types: * R_PPC64_REL24_NOTOC is a function call handled like R_PPC_REL24, but does not restore r2 upon return. The external function call stub is changed to use pcrel addressing to load the function pointer rather than based on the module TOC. * R_PPC64_GOT_PCREL34 is a reference to external data. A GOT table must be built by hand, because the linker adds this during the final link (which is not done for kernel modules). The GOT table is built similarly to the way the external function call stub table is. This section is called .mygot because .got has a special meaning for the linker and can become upset. * R_PPC64_PCREL34 is used for local data addressing, but there is a special case where the percpu section is moved at load-time to the percpu area which is out of range of this relocation. This requires the PCREL34 relocations are converted to use GOT_PCREL34 addressing.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman: - Support for userspace to send requests directly to the on-chip GZIP accelerator on Power9. - Rework of our lockless page table walking (__find_linux_pte()) to make it safe against parallel page table manipulations without relying on an IPI for serialisation. - A series of fixes & enhancements to make our machine check handling more robust. - Lots of plumbing to add support for "prefixed" (64-bit) instructions on Power10. - Support for using huge pages for the linear mapping on 8xx (32-bit). - Remove obsolete Xilinx PPC405/PPC440 support, and an associated sound driver. - Removal of some obsolete 40x platforms and associated cruft. - Initial support for booting on Power10. - Lots of other small features, cleanups & fixes.

powerpc/module_64: Consolidate ftrace code

2020-06-02T10:59:15+00:00

module_trampoline_target() is only used by ftrace. Move the prototype within the appropriate #ifdef in the header. Also, move the function body to the end of module_64.c so as to consolidate all ftrace code in one place. No functional changes. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.

arch: split MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definitions out to

2020-04-23T01:50:26+00:00

As the bug report [1] pointed out, must be included after . I believe we should not impose any include order restriction. We often sort include directives alphabetically, but it is just coding style convention. Technically, we can include header files in any order by making every header self-contained. Currently, arch-specific MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC is defined in , which is not included from . Hence, the straight-forward fix-up would be as follows: |--- a/include/linux/vermagic.h |+++ b/include/linux/vermagic.h |@@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ | /* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */ | #include |+#include | | /* Simply sanity version stamp for modules. */ | #ifdef CONFIG_SMP This works enough, but for further cleanups, I split MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definitions into . With this, and will be orthogonal, and the location of MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definitions will be consistent. For arc and ia64, MODULE_PROC_FAMILY is only used for defining MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC. I squashed it. For hexagon, nds32, and xtensa, I removed entirely because they contained nothing but MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definition. Kbuild will automatically generate at build-time, wrapping .

powerpc/modules: remove unused mod_arch_specific.toc field

2018-05-28T08:46:34+00:00

The toc field in the mod_arch_specific struct isn't actually used anywhere, so remove it. Also the ftrace-specific fields are now common between 32-bit and 64-bit, so simplify the struct definition a bit by moving them out of the __powerpc64__ #ifdef.
