mm: vmalloc: pass additional vm_flags to __vmalloc_node_range()

2015-02-14T05:21:42+00:00

For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory
for modules.  So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for
shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address
allocated in module_alloc().

__vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a
guard hole after allocated area.  Guard hole in shadow memory should be a
problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
at address occupied by guard hole.  So we could fail to allocate shadow
for module_alloc().

Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
__vmalloc_node_range().  Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
__vmalloc_node_range() function.

MIPS: Whitespace cleanup.

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

MIPS: Fix module.c build for 32 bit

2012-09-28T05:01:02+00:00

Fixes build failure introduced by "Make most arch asm/module.h files use
asm-generic/module.h" by moving all the RELA processing code to a
separate file to be used only for RELA processing on 64-bit kernels.

MIPS: Module: Deal with malformed HI16/LO16 relocation sequences.

2012-08-17T08:57:28+00:00

In case a series of R_MIPS_HI16 relocations was not followed by an
R_MIPS_LO16 relocation we were leaking the hi16 relocation chain.
Handle that error and return an error.

MIPS: Fix race condition in module relocation code.

2012-08-17T08:57:28+00:00

The relocation code was essentially taken from the 2.4 modutils which
perform relocation in userspace.  In 2.6 relocation of multiple modules
may be performed in parallel by the in-kernel loader so the global
variable mips_hi16_list won't fly anymore.  Fix race by moving it into
mod_arch_specific.

[ralf@linux-mips.org: folded in Tony's followup fix.  Thanks Tony!]

mips: remove needless include of module.h from core kernel files.

2011-10-31T23:30:57+00:00

None of these files are using modular infrastructure, and build
tests reveal that none of these files are really relying on any
implicit inclusions via. module.h either.  So delete them.

modules: make arch's use default loader hooks

2011-07-24T12:36:04+00:00

This patch removes all the module loader hook implementations in the
architecture specific code where the functionality is the same as that
now provided by the recently added default hooks.

MIPS: jump label: Add MIPS support.

2011-01-18T18:30:24+00:00

In order not to be left behind, we add jump label support for MIPS.

Tested on 64-bit big endian (Octeon), and 32-bit little endian
(malta/qemu).
