ARCH: drivers remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:13Z

This fixes up all of the smaller arches that had __dev* markings for their platform-specific drivers. CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

arch/tile: implement arch_ptrace using user_regset on tile

2012-12-18T19:53:14Z

This patch changes arch_ptrace on tile so that it uses user_regset to implement the PTRACE_GETREGS and PTRACE_SETREGS operations. Signed-off-by: Simon Marchi Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

arch/tile: implement user_regset interface on tile

2012-12-18T19:53:06Z

This is a basic implementation of user_regset for the tile architecture. It reuses the basic blocks that were already there. Signed-off-by: Simon Marchi Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

compat: generic compat_sys_sched_rr_get_interval() implementation

2012-12-18T01:15:18Z

This function is used by sparc, powerpc tile and arm64 for compat support. The patch adds a generic implementation with a wrapper for PowerPC to do the u32->int sign extension. The reason for a single patch covering powerpc, tile, sparc and arm64 is to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched function declarations.

arch/tile: clean up tile-specific PTRACE_SETOPTIONS

2012-12-14T17:56:54Z

Use the newer idioms for setting PTRACE_O_xxx and PT_TRACE_xxx flags. Only set/clear tile-specific flags if the generic routine returns success, since otherwise we want to avoid setting any flags at all. Atomically update the ptrace flags with the new values. Eliminate the PT_TRACE_MASK_TILE bitmask and just shift PTRACE_O_MASK_TILE. Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to avoid overlapping with generic bits. Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

modules: don't hand 0 to vmalloc.

2012-12-14T02:36:43Z

In commit d0a21265dfb5fa8a David Rientjes unified various archs' module_alloc implementation (including x86) and removed the graduitous shortcut for size == 0. Then, in commit de7d2b567d040e3b, Joe Perches added a warning for zero-length vmallocs, which can happen without kallsyms on modules with no init sections (eg. zlib_deflate). Fix this once and for all; the module code has to handle zero length anyway, so get it right at the caller and remove the now-gratuitous checks within the arch-specific module_alloc implementations.

arch/tile: provide PT_FLAGS_COMPAT value in pt_regs

2012-12-13T16:34:24Z

This flag is set for ptrace GETREGS or PEEKUSER for processes that are COMPAT, i.e. 32-bit. This allows things like strace to easily discover what personality to use, for example. Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf
