ARC: show_regs: fix r12 printing and simplify

2020-08-27T20:11:37Z

when working on ARC64, spotted an issue in ARCv2 reg file printing. print_reg_file() assumes contiguous reg-file whereas in ARCv2 they are not: r12 comes before r0-r11 due to hardware auto-save. Apparently this issue has been present since v2 port submission. To avoid bolting hacks for this discontinuity while looping through pt_regs, just ditching the loop and print pt_regs directly.

treewide: Use fallthrough pseudo-keyword

2020-08-23T22:36:59Z

Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary fall-through markings when it is the case.

ARC: perf: don't bail setup if pct irq missing in device-tree

mm/gup: remove task_struct pointer for all gup code

After the cleanup of page fault accounting, gup does not need to pass task_struct around any more. Remove that parameter in the whole gup stack.

Pull regset conversion fix from Al Viro: "Fix a regression from an unnoticed bisect hazard in the regset series. A bunch of old (aout, originally) primitives used by coredumps became dead code after fdpic conversion to regsets. Removal of that dead code had been the first commit in the followups to regset series; unfortunately, it happened to hide the bisect hazard on sh (extern for fpregs_get() had not been updated in the main series when it should have been; followup simply made fpregs_get() static). And without that followup commit this bisect hazard became breakage in the mainline" Tested-by: John Paul Adrian Glaubitz * 'fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: kill unused dump_fpu() instances

Pull fork cleanups from Christian Brauner: "This is cleanup series from when we reworked a chunk of the process creation paths in the kernel and switched to struct {kernel_}clone_args. High-level this does two main things: - Remove the double export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() where do_fork() used the incosistent legacy clone calling convention. Now we only export _do_fork() which is based on struct kernel_clone_args. - Remove the copy_thread_tls()/copy_thread() split making the architecture specific HAVE_COYP_THREAD_TLS config option obsolete. This switches all remaining architectures to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and thus to the copy_thread_tls() calling convention. The current split makes the process creation codepaths more convoluted than they need to be. Each architecture has their own copy_thread() function unless it selects HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS then it has a copy_thread_tls() function. The split is not needed anymore nowadays, all architectures support CLONE_SETTLS but quite a few of them never bothered to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and instead simply continued to use copy_thread() and use the old calling convention. Removing this split cleans up the process creation codepaths and paves the way for implementing clone3() on such architectures since it requires the copy_thread_tls() calling convention. After having made each architectures support copy_thread_tls() this series simply renames that function back to copy_thread(). It also switches all architectures that call do_fork() directly over to _do_fork() and the struct kernel_clone_args calling convention. This is a corollary of switching the architectures that did not yet support it over to copy_thread_tls() since do_fork() is conditional on not supporting copy_thread_tls() (Mostly because it lacks a separate argument for tls which is trivial to fix but there's no need for this function to exist.). The do_fork() removal is in itself already useful as it allows to to remove the export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() we currently have in favor of only _do_fork(). This has already been discussed back when we added clone3(). The legacy clone() calling convention is - as is probably well-known - somewhat odd: # # ABI hall of shame # config CLONE_BACKWARDS config CLONE_BACKWARDS2 config CLONE_BACKWARDS3 that is aggravated by the fact that some architectures such as sparc follow the CLONE_BACKWARDSx calling convention but don't really select the corresponding config option since they call do_fork() directly. So do_fork() enforces a somewhat arbitrary calling convention in the first place that doesn't really help the individual architectures that deviate from it. They can thus simply be switched to _do_fork() enforcing a single calling convention. (I really hope that any new architectures will __not__ try to implement their own calling conventions...) Most architectures already have made a similar switch (m68k comes to mind). Overall this removes more code than it adds even with a good portion of added comments. It simplifies a chunk of arch specific assembly either by moving the code into C or by simply rewriting the assembly. Architectures that have been touched in non-trivial ways have all been actually boot and stress tested: sparc and ia64 have been tested with Debian 9 images. They are the two architectures which have been touched the most. All non-trivial changes to architectures have seen acks from the relevant maintainers. nios2 with a custom built buildroot image. h8300 I couldn't get something bootable to test on but the changes have been fairly automatic and I'm sure we'll hear people yell if I broke something there. All other architectures that have been touched in trivial ways have been compile tested for each single patch of the series via git rebase -x "make ..." v5.8-rc2. arm{64} and x86{_64} have been boot tested even though they have just been trivially touched (removal of the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS macro from their Kconfig) because well they are basically "core architectures" and since it is trivial to get your hands on a useable image" * tag 'fork-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: arch: rename copy_thread_tls() back to copy_thread() arch: remove HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS unicore: switch to copy_thread_tls() sh: switch to copy_thread_tls() nds32: switch to copy_thread_tls() microblaze: switch to copy_thread_tls() hexagon: switch to copy_thread_tls() c6x: switch to copy_thread_tls() alpha: switch to copy_thread_tls() fork: remove do_fork() h8300: select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, switch to kernel_clone_args nios2: enable HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, switch to kernel_clone_args ia64: enable HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, switch to kernel_clone_args sparc: unconditionally enable HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS sparc: share process creation helpers between sparc and sparc64 sparc64: enable HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS fork: fold legacy_clone_args_valid() into _do_fork()

kill unused dump_fpu() instances

2020-07-27T18:33:10Z

dump_fpu() is used only on the architectures that support elf and have neither CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET nor ELF_CORE_COPY_FPREGS defined. Currently that's csky, m68k, microblaze, nds32 and unicore32. The rest of the instances are dead code. NB: THIS MUST GO AFTER ELF_FDPIC CONVERSION Signed-off-by: Al Viro
