uaccess: remove CONFIG_SET_FS

2022-02-25T08:36:06+00:00

There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS
can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and
any references to it.

This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX.

As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to
set_fs()/get_fs(), mm_segment_t, user_addr_max() and uaccess_kernel().

arch: remove GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT entirely

2022-01-15T16:47:31+00:00

In 5.12 cycle we enabled GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT config option for ARM64
and MIPS. It increased performance and shrunk .text size; and so far
I didn't receive any negative feedback on the change.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arch/20210225135700.1381396-1-yury.norov@gmail.com/

Now I think it's a good time to switch all architectures to use
find_{first,last}_bit() unconditionally, and so remove corresponding
config option.

The patch does't introduce functioal changes for arc, arm, arm64, mips,
m68k, s390 and x86, for other architectures I expect improvement both in
performance and .text size.

irq: arc: avoid CONFIG_HANDLE_DOMAIN_IRQ

2021-10-25T09:05:28+00:00

In preparation for removing HANDLE_DOMAIN_IRQ, have arch/arc perform all
the necessary IRQ entry accounting in its entry code.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

ARC: mm: support 3 levels of page tables

2021-08-26T20:43:19+00:00

ARCv2 MMU is software walked and Linux implements 2 levels of paging: pgd/pte.
Forthcoming hw will have multiple levels, so this change preps mm code
for same. It is also fun to try multi levels even on soft-walked code to
ensure generic mm code is robust to handle.

overview
________

2 levels {pgd, pte} : pmd is folded but pmd_* macros are valid and operate on pgd
3 levels {pgd, pmd, pte}:
  - pud is folded and pud_* macros point to pgd
  - pmd_* macros operate on actual pmd

code changes
____________

1. #include 

2. Define CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS 3

3a. Define PMD_SHIFT, PMD_SIZE, PMD_MASK, pmd_t
3b. Define pmd_val() which actually deals with pmd
    (pmd_offset(), pmd_index() are provided by generic code)
3c. pmd_alloc_one()/pmd_free() also provided by generic code
    (pmd_populate/pmd_free already exist)

4. Define pud_none(), pud_bad() macros based on generic pud_val() which
   internally pertains to pgd now.
4b. define pud_populate() to just setup pgd
