Subject: [PATCH 4.4 032/312] MIPS: Define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH for ARCH_DLINFO
Date: Fri,  8 May 2020 14:30:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200508123126.743335733@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200508123124.574959822@linuxfoundation.org>

From: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com>

commit 233b2ca181f20674ecad11be90b00814911ce345 upstream.

AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH should be defined with the maximum number of
NEW_AUX_ENT entries that ARCH_DLINFO can contain, but it wasn't defined
for MIPS at all even though ARCH_DLINFO will contain one NEW_AUX_ENT for
the VDSO address.

This shouldn't be a problem as AT_VECTOR_SIZE_BASE includes space for
AT_BASE_PLATFORM which MIPS doesn't use, but lets define it now and add
the comment above ARCH_DLINFO as found in several other architectures to
remind future modifiers of ARCH_DLINFO to keep AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH up to
date.
