uaccess: fix type mismatch warnings from access_ok()

2022-04-08T12:24:01Z

[ Upstream commit 23fc539e81295b14b50c6ccc5baeb4f3d59d822d ] On some architectures, access_ok() does not do any argument type checking, so replacing the definition with a generic one causes a few warnings for harmless issues that were never caught before. Fix the ones that I found either through my own test builds or that were reported by the 0-day bot.

signal: Replace force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) with force_fatal_sig(SIGSEGV)

2021-11-25T08:49:06Z

commit e21294a7aaae32c5d7154b187113a04db5852e37 upstream. Now that force_fatal_sig exists it is unnecessary and a bit confusing to use force_sigsegv in cases where the simpler force_fatal_sig is wanted. So change every instance we can to make the code clearer.

arch: setup PF_IO_WORKER threads like PF_KTHREAD

2021-02-22T00:25:22Z

PF_IO_WORKER are kernel threads too, but they aren't PF_KTHREAD in the sense that we don't assign ->set_child_tid with our own structure. Just ensure that every arch sets up the PF_IO_WORKER threads like kthreads in the arch implementation of copy_thread(). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

ARC: [plat-eznps]: Drop support for EZChip NPS platform

NPS customers are no longer doing active development, as evident from rand config build failures reported in recent times, so drop support for NPS platform. Tested-by: kernel test robot Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

mm/gup: remove task_struct pointer for all gup code

2020-08-12T17:58:04Z

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.

Merge branch 'fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2020-08-09T20:33:54Z

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

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

arch: rename copy_thread_tls() back to copy_thread()

2020-07-04T21:41:37Z

Now that HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS has been removed, rename copy_thread_tls() back simply copy_thread(). It's a simpler name, and doesn't imply that only tls is copied here. This finishes an outstanding chunk of internal process creation work since we've added clone3().
