vmlinux.lds: add missing VMLINUX_SYMBOL macros

2017-04-08T07:47:48Z

When __{start,end}_ro_after_init is referenced from C code, we run into the following build errors on blackfin: kernel/extable.c:169: undefined reference to `__start_ro_after_init' kernel/extable.c:169: undefined reference to `__end_ro_after_init' The build error is due to the fact that blackfin is one of the few arches that prepends an underscore '_' to all symbols defined in C. Fix this by wrapping __{start,end}_ro_after_init in vmlinux.lds.h with VMLINUX_SYMBOL(), which adds the necessary prefix for arches that have HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.

mm: fix section name for .data..ro_after_init

2017-04-01T00:13:30Z

A section name for .data..ro_after_init was added by both: commit d07a980c1b8d ("s390: add proper __ro_after_init support") and commit d7c19b066dcf ("mm: kmemleak: scan .data.ro_after_init") The latter adds incorrect wrapping around the existing s390 section, and came later. I'd prefer the s390 naming, so this moves the s390-specific name up to the asm-generic/sections.h and renames the section as used by kmemleak (and in the future, kernel/extable.c).

vmlinux.lds: Add __clkevt_of_table to kernel

2017-03-28T07:40:39Z

The code introduced by commit 0c8893c9095d ("clockevents: Add a clkevt-of mechanism like clksrc-of") refer to __clkevt_of_table what doesn't exist in the vmlinux. As a result kernel build failed with error: "clkevt-probe.c:63: undefined reference to `__clkevt_of_table’" Fixes: 0c8893c9095d ("clockevents: Add a clkevt-of mechanism like clksrc-of") Signed-off-by: Alexander Kochetkov Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano

mm: convert generic code to 5-level paging

2017-03-09T19:48:47Z

Convert all non-architecture-specific code to 5-level paging. It's mostly mechanical adding handling one more page table level in places where we deal with pud_t. Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov Acked-by: Michal Hocko Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

asm-generic: introduce

2017-03-09T19:48:47Z

Like with pgtable-nopud.h for 4-level paging, this new header is base for converting an architectures to properly folded p4d_t level. Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov Acked-by: Michal Hocko Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

asm-generic: introduce __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK

2017-03-09T19:48:47Z

We are going to introduce to provide abstraction for properly (in opposite to 5level-fixup.h hack) folded p4d level. The new header will be included from pgtable-nopud.h. If an architecture uses , we cannot use 5level-fixup.h directly to quickly convert the architecture to 5-level paging as it would conflict with pgtable-nop4d.h. With this patch an architecture can define __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK before inclusion to use 5level-fixup.h. Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov Acked-by: Michal Hocko Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

asm-generic: introduce 5level-fixup.h

2017-03-09T19:48:47Z

We are going to switch core MM to 5-level paging abstraction. This is preparation step which adds As with 4level-fixup.h, the new header allows quickly make all architectures compatible with 5-level paging in core MM. In long run we would like to switch architectures to properly folded p4d level by using , but it requires more changes to arch-specific code. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

kprobes: move kprobe declarations to asm-generic/kprobes.h

2017-02-28T02:43:45Z

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of clutter as possible. Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled CONFIG_KPROBES. Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES, this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely. Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them. Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without bringing the full kitchen sink of header files. Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added. We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless kprobes have been enabled. In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from include/linux/kprobes.h. During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef CONFIG_KPROBES guard.
