mm: convert return type of handle_mm_fault() caller to vm_fault_t

2018-08-17T23:20:28Z

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. Ref-> commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") In this patch all the caller of handle_mm_fault() are changed to return vm_fault_t type.

signal/mips: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate

2018-04-25T15:41:02Z

Filling in struct siginfo before calling force_sig_info a tedious and error prone process, where once in a great while the wrong fields are filled out, and siginfo has been inconsistently cleared. Simplify this process by using the helper force_sig_fault. Which takes as a parameters all of the information it needs, ensures all of the fiddly bits of filling in struct siginfo are done properly and then calls force_sig_info. In short about a 5 line reduction in code for every time force_sig_info is called, which makes the calling function clearer.

signal: Ensure every siginfo we send has all bits initialized

2018-04-25T15:40:51Z

Call clear_siginfo to ensure every stack allocated siginfo is properly initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions. Note: It is not safe to depend on C initializers to initialize struct siginfo on the stack because C is allowed to skip holes when initializing a structure. The initialization of struct siginfo in tracehook_report_syscall_exit was moved from the helper user_single_step_siginfo into tracehook_report_syscall_exit itself, to make it clear that the local variable siginfo gets fully initialized. In a few cases the scope of struct siginfo has been reduced to make it clear that siginfo siginfo is not used on other paths in the function in which it is declared. Instances of using memset to initialize siginfo have been replaced with calls clear_siginfo for clarity. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

MIPS: Remove confusing else statement in __do_page_fault()

2017-04-12T22:47:04Z

Commit 41c594ab65fc ("[MIPS] MT: Improved multithreading support.") added an else case to an if statement in do_page_fault() (which has since gained 2 leading underscores) for some unclear reason. If the condition in the if statement evaluates true then we execute a goto & branch elsewhere anyway, so the else has no effect. Combined with an #if 0 block with misleading indentation introduced in the same commit it makes the code less clear than it could be. Remove the unnecessary else statement & de-indent the printk within the #if 0 block in order to make the code easier for humans to parse.

MIPS: mm: Fix output of __do_page_fault

2016-11-25T11:08:10Z

Since commit 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines") the output from __do_page_fault on MIPS has been pretty unreadable due to the lack of KERN_CONT markers. Use pr_cont to provide the appropriate markers & restore the expected output. Signed-off-by: Matt Redfearn Cc: Paul Gortmaker Cc: Kirill A.

MIPS: mm: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.h

2016-10-04T23:31:20Z

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance for the presence of either and replace as needed.

mm/fault, arch: Use pagefault_disable() to check for disabled pagefaults in the handler

2015-05-19T06:39:15Z

Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers. Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly disabled). In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults. With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs. We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling might_sleep(). Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this is needed. faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files. This patch is based on a patch from Thomas Gleixner.
