From d814c28ceca8f659c0012eaec8e21eee43710716 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Daney Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2010 16:13:05 -0800 Subject: MIPS: Move signal trampolines off of the stack. This is a follow on to the vdso patch. Since all processes now have signal trampolines permanently mapped, we can use those instead of putting the trampoline on the stack and invalidating the corresponding icache across all CPUs. We also get rid of a bunch of ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR code. [Ralf: GDB 7.1 which has the necessary modifications to allow backtracing over signal frames will supposedly be released tomorrow. The old signal frame format obsoleted by this patch exists in two variations, for sane processors and for those requiring ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR. So there was never a GDB which did support backtracing over signal frames on all MIPS systems. This convinved me this series should be applied and pushed upstream as soon as possible.] Signed-off-by: David Daney To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/974/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle --- arch/mips/kernel/signal-common.h | 5 ----- 1 file changed, 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'arch/mips/kernel/signal-common.h') diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/signal-common.h b/arch/mips/kernel/signal-common.h index 6c8e8c4246f7..10263b405981 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/signal-common.h +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/signal-common.h @@ -26,11 +26,6 @@ */ extern void __user *get_sigframe(struct k_sigaction *ka, struct pt_regs *regs, size_t frame_size); -/* - * install trampoline code to get back from the sig handler - */ -extern int install_sigtramp(unsigned int __user *tramp, unsigned int syscall); - /* Check and clear pending FPU exceptions in saved CSR */ extern int fpcsr_pending(unsigned int __user *fpcsr); -- cgit v1.2.3
