2012-10-23hexagon: kernel_thread()/kernel_execve() conversionAl Viro
introduce sane current_pt_regs(), use it in syscalls where needed. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-10-23arch/tile: eliminate pt_regs trampolines for syscallsChris Metcalf
Using the new current_pt_regs() model, we can remove some trampolines from assembly code and call directly to the C syscall implementations. rt_sigreturn() and clone() still need some assembly wrapping, but no longer are passed a pt_regs pointer. sigaltstack() and the tilepro-specific cmpxchg_badaddr() syscalls are now just straight C.

2012-10-19openrisc: pass correct arg to schedule_tailJonas Bonn
schedule_tail() requires that the 'prev' task be passed as an argument to it. This arg is set in _switch, just before 'returning' to one of the ret_* functions where schedule_tail is invoked. Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn <jonas@southpole.se>

2012-10-17arm64: Use generic sys_execve() implementationCatalin Marinas
This patch converts the arm64 port to use the generic sys_execve() implementation removing the arm64-specific (compat_)sys_execve_wrapper() functions. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2012-10-17arm64: Use generic kernel_execve() implementationCatalin Marinas
This patch enables CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE on arm64 and removes the arm64-specific implementation of kernel_execve(). Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2012-10-17arm64: Use generic kernel_thread() implementationCatalin Marinas
This patch enables CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_THREAD on arm64, changes copy_threads to cope with kernel threads creation and adapts ret_from_fork accordingly. The arm64-specific kernel_thread implementation is no longer needed. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

2012-10-14parisc: optimizations in copy_thread() and friendsAl Viro
* in user thread case the registers had been copied as part of task_struct already; no need to do it in copy_thread(). * no need to store kernel stack pointer into regs->r21; we know its offset anyway. * no need to clobber r3 in sys_fork_wrapper and friends - r28 will do just as well and *it* will be overwritten anyway. * no need to mess with storing the return address for child - it should just use syscall_exit. * no need to bother with separate stack frame for sys_clone() - just branch there and be done with that. * no need to bother with wrapper_exit - we need it only on the child_return, so let's just do it there. * use the same ksp for kernel threads and userland ones, while we are at it, and let ret_from_kernel_execve() go through the normal syscall_exit. More straightforward is better here... [fixes from jejb folded] Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-10-14ia64: don't mess with ar_bspstore in kernel_thread()Al Viro
the only thing we use that for is in copy_thread(), where the way we set it will result in rbs_size being 0. Just move that calculating rbs_size and copying rbs to non-kernel-thread side of if (user_mode(regs)) in copy_thread() and set rbs_size to 0 on kernel thread side.

2012-10-14ia64: dead code in copy_thread() since 2004Al Viro

2012-10-14ia64: clone() had been unused since 2004Al Viro
Used to be used by kernel_thread(); dead code for 8 years... Note that it's not sys_clone/sys_clone2 - those are used just fine. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-10-14MIPS: Switch over to generic sys_execve and kernel_execve.Ralf Baechle
This version contains a few updates by David Daney, in particular it's now using __builtin_frame_address() instead of asm() which depending on personal taste, is slightly more appealing. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2012-10-14sparc64: clear syscall_noerror on the entry to syscall, not on the exitAl Viro
Move that sucker to just before TI_FPDEPTH and replace stb with sth in etrap_save(). Take current_ds to its old place, so that we don't push wsaved into TI_... flags. That allows to lose clearing syscall_noerror on return from syscall. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
