vgacon, arch/*: remove unused screen_info definitions

2023-10-17T08:17:02+00:00

A number of architectures either kept the screen_info definition for
historical purposes as it used to be required by the generic VT code, or
they copied it from another architecture in order to build the VGA console
driver in an allmodconfig build. The mips definition is used by some
platforms, but the initialization on jazz is not needed.

Now that vgacon no longer builds on these architectures, remove the
stale definitions and initializations.

hexagon: mm: convert to GENERIC_IOREMAP

2023-08-18T17:12:32+00:00

By taking GENERIC_IOREMAP method, the generic ioremap_prot() and iounmap()
are visible and available to arch.  This change will simplify
implementation by removing duplicated code with generic ioremap_prot() and
iounmap(), and has the equivalent functioality.

For hexagon, the current ioremap() and iounmap() are the same as generic
version.  After taking GENERIC_IOREMAP way, the old ioremap() and
iounmap() can be completely removed.

Hexagon: Replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy

2023-06-14T18:18:05+00:00

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first.
This read may exceed the destination size limit.
This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read
overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1].
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace
strlcpy() here with strscpy().
No return values were used, so direct replacement is safe.

treewide: Trace IPIs sent via smp_send_reschedule()

2023-03-24T10:01:28+00:00

To be able to trace invocations of smp_send_reschedule(), rename the
arch-specific definitions of it to arch_smp_send_reschedule() and wrap it
into an smp_send_reschedule() that contains a tracepoint.

Changes to include the declaration of the tracepoint were driven by the
following coccinelle script:

  @func_use@

  smp_send_reschedule(...);

  @include@

  #include 

  @no_include depends on func_use && !include@

arch/idle: Change arch_cpu_idle() behavior: always exit with IRQs disabled

2023-01-13T10:48:15+00:00

Current arch_cpu_idle() is called with IRQs disabled, but will return
with IRQs enabled.

However, the very first thing the generic code does after calling
arch_cpu_idle() is raw_local_irq_disable(). This means that
architectures that can idle with IRQs disabled end up doing a
pointless 'enable-disable' dance.

Therefore, push this IRQ disabling into the idle function, meaning
that those architectures can avoid the pointless IRQ state flipping.

kbuild: use obj-y instead extra-y for objects placed at the head

2022-10-02T09:04:05+00:00

The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments:

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place
   them before other archives in the linker command line.

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of
   obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a.

This commit gets rid of the latter.

Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally
linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head
of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'.

With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y
for builtin objects.

There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code
in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py.

$(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested
by Nathan Chancellor [1].
