Pull weak function declaration removal from Bjorn Helgaas: "The "weak" attribute is commonly used for the default version of a function, where an architecture can override it by providing a strong version. Some header file declarations included the "weak" attribute. That's error-prone because it causes every implementation to be weak, with no strong version at all, and the linker chooses one based on link order. What we want is the "weak" attribute only on the *definition* of the default implementation. These changes remove "weak" from the declarations, leaving it on the default definitions" * tag 'remove-weak-declarations' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci: uprobes: Remove "weak" from function declarations memory-hotplug: Remove "weak" from memory_block_size_bytes() declaration kgdb: Remove "weak" from kgdb_arch_pc() declaration ARC: kgdb: generic kgdb_arch_pc() suffices vmcore: Remove "weak" from function declarations clocksource: Remove "weak" from clocksource_default_clock() declaration x86, intel-mid: Remove "weak" from function declarations audit: Remove "weak" from audit_classify_compat_syscall() declaration

ARC: kgdb: generic kgdb_arch_pc() suffices

2014-10-22T22:14:04Z

The ARC version of kgdb_arch_pc() is identical to the generic version in kernel/debug/debug_core.c. Drop the ARC version so we use the generic one. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas

Pull ARC updates from Vineet Gupta: "Sorry for the late pull request. Current stuff was ready for a while but I was hoping to squeeze in support for almost ready ARC SDP platform (and avoid a 2nd pull request), however it seems there are still some loose ends which warrant more time. - Platform code reduction/moving-up (TB10X no longer needs any callbacks) - updated boot printing - kgdb update for arc gdb 7.5 - bug fixes (some marked for stable) - more code refactoring/consolidation" * tag 'arc-3.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vgupta/arc: ARC: boot: cpu feature print enhancements ARC: boot: consolidate cross-checking of h/w and s/w ARC: unbork FPU save/restore ARC: remove extraneous __KERNEL__ guards ARC: Update order of registers in KGDB to match GDB 7.5 ARC: Remove unneeded Kconfig entry NO_DMA ARC: BUG() dumps stack after @msg (@msg now same as in generic BUG)) ARC: refactoring: reduce the scope of some local vars ARC: remove gcc mpy heuristics ARC: RIP @running_on_hw ARC: Update comments about uncached address space ARC: rename kconfig option for unaligned emulation ARC: [nsimosci] Allow "headless" models to boot ARC: [arcfpga] Get rid of ARC_BOARD_ANGEL4 and ARC_BOARD_ML509 ARC: [arcfpga] Remove more dead code ARC: [plat*] move code out of .init_machine into common ARC: [arcfpga] consolidate machine description, DT ARC: Allow SMP kernel to build/boot on UP-only infrastructure

Pull arch atomic cleanups from Ingo Molnar: "This is a series kept separate from the main locking tree, which cleans up and improves various details in the atomics type handling: - Remove the unused atomic_or_long() method - Consolidate and compress atomic ops implementations between architectures, to reduce linecount and to make it easier to add new ops. - Rewrite generic atomic support to only require cmpxchg() from an architecture - generate all other methods from that" * 'locking-arch-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (23 commits) locking,arch: Use ACCESS_ONCE() instead of cast to volatile in atomic_read() locking, mips: Fix atomics locking, sparc64: Fix atomics locking,arch: Rewrite generic atomic support locking,arch,xtensa: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,sparc: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,sh: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,powerpc: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,parisc: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,mn10300: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,mips: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,metag: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,m68k: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,m32r: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,ia64: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,hexagon: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,cris: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,avr32: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,arm64: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,arm: Fold atomic_ops ...

ARC: Update order of registers in KGDB to match GDB 7.5

2014-10-13T09:16:20Z

Order of registers has changed in GDB moving from 6.8 to 7.5. This patch updates KGDB to work properly with GDB 7.5, though makes it incompatible with 6.8. Signed-off-by: Anton Kolesov Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta Cc: #3.10, 3.12, 3.14, 3.16

ARC: Remove unneeded Kconfig entry NO_DMA

2014-10-13T09:16:19Z

Architectures only need a Kconfig entry for NO_DMA if it is possible that its value will be 'y'. For arc its value will always be 'n', making it pointless. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta
