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

2020-10-06T04:02:29+00:00

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.

mm/gup: remove task_struct pointer for all gup code

2020-08-12T17:58:04+00:00

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.

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"

  kill unused dump_fpu() instances

kill unused dump_fpu() instances

2020-07-27T18:33:10+00:00

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

arch: rename copy_thread_tls() back to copy_thread()

2020-07-04T21:41:37+00:00

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().

mmap locking API: use coccinelle to convert mmap_sem rwsem call sites

2020-06-09T16:39:14+00:00

This change converts the existing mmap_sem rwsem calls to use the new mmap
locking API instead.

The change is generated using coccinelle with the following rule:

// spatch --sp-file mmap_lock_api.cocci --in-place --include-headers --dir .

Merge branch 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

2019-07-09T04:48:15+00:00

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
 "A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
  task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
  task.

  The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
  such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
  fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.

  Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
  force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
  abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
  have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.

  This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
  carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends
  making this kind of error almost impossible in the future"
