um: Avoid marking pages with "changed protection"

2019-02-20T09:09:02Z

[ Upstream commit 8892d8545f2d0342b9c550defbfb165db237044b ] Changing protection is a very high cost operation in UML because in addition to an extra syscall it also interrupts mmap merge sequences generated by the tlb. While the condition is not particularly common it is worth avoiding. Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

um: Remove copy&paste code from init.h

2018-02-07T19:07:53Z

commit 30b11ee9ae23d78de66b9ae315880af17a64ba83 upstream. As we got rid of the __KERNEL__ abuse, we can directly include linux/compiler.h now. This also allows gcc 5 to build UML.

um: Stop abusing KERNEL

2018-02-07T19:07:53Z

commit 298e20ba8c197e8d429a6c8671550c41c7919033 upstream. Currently UML is abusing __KERNEL__ to distinguish between kernel and host code (os-Linux). It is better to use a custom define such that existing users of __KERNEL__ don't get confused.

Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

2017-08-11T16:30:13Z

commit a6e2f029ae34f41adb6ae3812c32c5d326e1abd2 upstream. Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the generic version, which previously only supported big-endian. Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in any case is also not present for the existing BE-only implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS. Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures that didn't previously have it. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

um: delete unnecessary bootmem struct page array

2014-10-13T15:15:09Z

1) uml kernel bootmem managed through bootmem_data->node_bootmem_map, not the struct page array, so the array is unnecessary. 2) the bootmem struct page array has been pointed by a *local* pointer, struct page *map, in init_maps function. The array can be accessed only in init_maps's scope. As a result, uml kernel wastes about 1% of total memory. Signed-off-by: Honggang Li Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

irq_work: Introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt()

2014-09-13T16:38:07Z

The nohz full code needs irq work to trigger its own interrupt so that the subsystem can work even when the tick is stopped. Lets introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() that archs can override to tell about their support for this ability. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Paul E.

Merge branch 'signal-cleanup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/misc

2014-08-09T16:58:12Z

Pull arch signal handling cleanup from Richard Weinberger: "This patch series moves all remaining archs to the get_signal(), signal_setup_done() and sigsp() functions. Currently these archs use open coded variants of the said functions. Further, unused parameters get removed from get_signal_to_deliver(), tracehook_signal_handler() and signal_delivered(). At the end of the day we save around 500 lines of code." * 'signal-cleanup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/misc: (43 commits) powerpc: Use sigsp() openrisc: Use sigsp() mn10300: Use sigsp() mips: Use sigsp() microblaze: Use sigsp() metag: Use sigsp() m68k: Use sigsp() m32r: Use sigsp() hexagon: Use sigsp() frv: Use sigsp() cris: Use sigsp() c6x: Use sigsp() blackfin: Use sigsp() avr32: Use sigsp() arm64: Use sigsp() arc: Use sigsp() sas_ss_flags: Remove nested ternary if Rip out get_signal_to_deliver() Clean up signal_delivered() tracehook_signal_handler: Remove sig, info, ka and regs ...

arm64,ia64,ppc,s390,sh,tile,um,x86,mm: remove default gate area

2014-08-08T22:57:27Z

The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if !defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR). This default is only useful for ia64. arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it. arm, 32-bit UML, and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations. This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64. This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

lib/scatterlist: make ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN an actual Kconfig

2014-08-08T22:57:26Z

Rather than have architectures #define ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN in an architecture specific scatterlist.h, make it a proper Kconfig option and use that instead. At same time, remove the header files are are now mostly useless and just include asm-generic/scatterlist.h.
