mips: remove needless include of module.h from core kernel files.

2011-10-31T23:30:57Z

None of these files are using modular infrastructure, and build tests reveal that none of these files are really relying on any implicit inclusions via. module.h either. So delete them. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

modules: make arch's use default loader hooks

2011-07-24T12:36:04Z

This patch removes all the module loader hook implementations in the architecture specific code where the functionality is the same as that now provided by the recently added default hooks.

MIPS: jump label: Add MIPS support.

2011-01-18T18:30:24Z

In order not to be left behind, we add jump label support for MIPS. Tested on 64-bit big endian (Octeon), and 32-bit little endian (malta/qemu).

mm: unify module_alloc code for vmalloc

2011-01-14T01:32:34Z

Four architectures (arm, mips, sparc, x86) use __vmalloc_area() for module_init(). Much of the code is duplicated and can be generalized in a globally accessible function, __vmalloc_node_range(). __vmalloc_node() now calls into __vmalloc_node_range() with a range of [VMALLOC_START, VMALLOC_END) for functionally equivalent behavior. Each architecture may then use __vmalloc_node_range() directly to remove the duplication of code. Signed-off-by: David Rientjes Cc: Christoph Lameter Cc: Russell King Cc: Ralf Baechle Cc: "David S.

MIPS: Module: Make error messages unique.

There were three different errors resulting in a "dangerous relocation" message. Add the relocation type to the messgages to make them more useful. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

MIPS: Fix loading of modules with unresolved weak symbols

2009-08-03T16:52:42Z

Loading of modules with unresolved weak symbols fails on MIPS since '88173507e4fc1e7ecd111b0565e8cba0cb7dae6d'. Modules: handle symbols that have a zero value The module subsystem cannot handle symbols that are zero. If symbols are present that have a zero value then the module resolver prints out a message that these symbols are unresolved. We have to use IS_ERR_VALUE() to check that a symbol has been resolved or not. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architectures

2008-07-24T17:47:21Z

On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit boundary. For example: u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size); always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB. The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for example): #define PAGE_SHIFT 12 #define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT) #define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1)) ... #define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK) The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary. Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses typeof(addr) for the mask. Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in include/linux/mm.h.

[MIPS] Load modules to CKSEG0 if CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64=n

2006-11-30T01:14:44Z

This is a patch to load 64-bit modules to CKSEG0 so that can be compiled with -msym32 option. This makes each module ~10% smaller. * introduce MODULE_START and MODULE_END * custom module_alloc() * PGD for modules * change XTLB refill handler synthesizer * enable -msym32 for modules again (revert ca78b1a5c6a6e70e052d3ea253828e49b5d07c8a) New XTLB refill handler looks like this: 80000080 dmfc0 k0,C0_BADVADDR 80000084 bltz k0,800000e4 # goto l_module_alloc 80000088 lui k1,0x8046 # %high(pgd_current) 8000008c ld k1,24600(k1) # %low(pgd_current) 80000090 dsrl k0,k0,0x1b # l_vmalloc_done: 80000094 andi k0,k0,0x1ff8 80000098 daddu k1,k1,k0 8000009c dmfc0 k0,C0_BADVADDR 800000a0 ld k1,0(k1) 800000a4 dsrl k0,k0,0x12 800000a8 andi k0,k0,0xff8 800000ac daddu k1,k1,k0 800000b0 dmfc0 k0,C0_XCONTEXT 800000b4 ld k1,0(k1) 800000b8 andi k0,k0,0xff0 800000bc daddu k1,k1,k0 800000c0 ld k0,0(k1) 800000c4 ld k1,8(k1) 800000c8 dsrl k0,k0,0x6 800000cc mtc0 k0,C0_ENTRYLO0 800000d0 dsrl k1,k1,0x6 800000d4 mtc0 k1,C0_ENTRYL01 800000d8 nop 800000dc tlbwr 800000e0 eret 800000e4 dsll k1,k0,0x2 # l_module_alloc: 800000e8 bgez k1,80000008 # goto l_vmalloc 800000ec lui k1,0xc000 800000f0 dsubu k0,k0,k1 800000f4 lui k1,0x8046 # %high(module_pg_dir) 800000f8 beq zero,zero,80000000 800000fc nop 80000000 beq zero,zero,80000090 # goto l_vmalloc_done 80000004 daddiu k1,k1,0x4000 80000008 dsll32 k1,k1,0x0 # l_vmalloc: 8000000c dsubu k0,k0,k1 80000010 beq zero,zero,80000090 # goto l_vmalloc_done 80000014 lui k1,0x8046 # %high(swapper_pg_dir) Signed-off-by: Atsushi Nemoto Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle
