ARM: 8844/1: use unified assembler in assembly files

2019-02-26T11:26:07+00:00

Use unified assembler syntax (UAL) in assembly files. Divided
syntax is considered deprecated. This will also allow to build
the kernel using LLVM's integrated assembler.

Revert "arm: move exports to definitions"

2016-11-23T10:00:03+00:00

This reverts commit 4dd1837d7589f468ed109556513f476e7a7f9121.

Moving the exports for assembly code into the assembly files breaks
KSYM trimming, but also breaks modversions.

While fixing the KSYM trimming is trivial, fixing modversions brings
us to a technically worse position that we had prior to the above
change:

- We end up with the prototype definitions divorsed from everything
  else, which means that adding or removing assembly level ksyms
  become more fragile:
  * if adding a new assembly ksyms export, a missed prototype in
    asm-prototypes.h results in a successful build if no module in
    the selected configuration makes use of the symbol.
  * when removing a ksyms export, asm-prototypes.h will get forgotten,
    with armksyms.c, you'll get a build error if you forget to touch
    the file.

- We end up with the same amount of include files and prototypes,
  they're just in a header file instead of a .c file with their
  exports.

As for lines of code, we don't get much of a size reduction:
 (original commit)
 47 files changed, 131 insertions(+), 208 deletions(-)
 (fix for ksyms trimming)
 7 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
 (two fixes for modversions)
 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+)
 3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
which results in a net total of only 25 lines deleted.

As there does not seem to be much benefit from this change of approach,
revert the change.

ARM: uaccess: provide uaccess_save_and_enable() and uaccess_restore()

2015-08-25T15:14:43+00:00

Provide uaccess_save_and_enable() and uaccess_restore() to permit
control of userspace visibility to the kernel, and hook these into
the appropriate places in the kernel where we need to access
userspace.

ARM: 8322/1: keep .text and .fixup regions closer together

2015-03-29T22:11:56+00:00

This moves all fixup snippets to the .text.fixup section, which is
a special section that gets emitted along with the .text section
for each input object file, i.e., the snippets are kept much closer
to the code they refer to, which helps prevent linker failure on
large kernels.

ARM: 6110/1: Fix Thumb-2 kernel builds when UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY is enabled

2010-05-08T09:45:26+00:00

The patch adds the ENDPROC declarations for the __copy_to_user_std and
__clear_user_std functions. Without these, the compiler generates BXL to
ARM when compiling the kernel in Thumb-2 mode.

ARM: fix build error in arch/arm/kernel/process.c

2010-04-21T07:45:21+00:00

/tmp/ccJ3ssZW.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccJ3ssZW.s:1952: Error: can't resolve `.text' {.text section} - `.LFB1077'

This is caused because:

	.section .data
	.section .text
	.section .text
	.previous

does not return us to the .text section, but the .data section; this
makes use of .previous dangerous if the ordering of previous sections
is not known.

Fix up the other users of .previous; .pushsection and .popsection are
a safer pairing to use than .section and .previous.
