[PATCH] drop superfluous .align 16

[PATCH] drop superfluous .align 16

[Helge Deller]

This .align 16 is misplaced and should be in front of the ENTRY(lws_lock_start).
Works because of pure luck since we have a .align PAGE_SIZE before it instead.

This is not true, the .align 16 aligns almost any object in the
subsection including .word.

However, it is superfluous since we have a .align PAGE_SIZE, but I was
probably being safe in the event that someone put an object before
lws_lock_start.

Sure, but it does not take care of lws_lock_start itself.

What I mean is, that the lws_lock_start label should start at 16byte 
boundary, right? (it is due to the .align PAGE_SIZE).
Now, if e.g. the .word555 (see below) would be in there, then
lws_lock_start would be at PAGE_SIZE+4, while the .word1 would start at 
PAGE_SIZE+16, which is wrong for accessing the lws_lock_start variables, 
where the first entry should be "1".

Example:
        .align  PAGE_SIZE
        .word 5555  <<<- think this would be here.
ENTRY(lws_lock_start)
       /* lws locks */
      .align 16
      .rept 16
      /* Keep locks aligned at 16-bytes */
      .word 1

So, I still think it would be better to remove the .align16, or 
alternatively to move it in front of ENTRY(lws_lock_start) [to be on the 
safe side].

Am I really that wrong?

No, you are absolutely right. I forgot the locks are referenced via
lws_lock_start, and the symbol needs to be aligned. Sorry, I thought
there was another symbol elsewhere.

This would be clearer if there was an ENTRY_ALIGNED macro (e.g.,
ENTRY_ALIGNED(lws_lock_start, 16)).  It's probably overkill though.

[PATCH] - Patch series for parisc

[Helge Deller]

The following mails contain patches which I have sent to linux-parisc during 
the last weeks and which have not yet been applied.
I've cleaned them up for Linus' and Kyle's current trees.

[PATCH] compat_sys_ptrace conversions for parisc

[Helge Deller]

This patch does the compat_sys_ptrace conversion for parisc.
In addition it does convert the parisc ptrace code to use the
architecture-independent ptrace infrastructure instead of own coding.

[PATCH] fix crash when trying to unwind user space

[Helge Deller]

Fix kernel to not to try to unwind functions when crash
happens in userspace.
Without this patch kernel may needlessly crash for userspace faults.

[PATCH] drop superfluous .align 16

[Helge Deller]

This .align 16 is misplaced and should be in front of the ENTRY(lws_lock_start).
Works because of pure luck since we have a .align PAGE_SIZE before it instead.

I think I'd really rather keep this.  It may be technically superfluous
because of the .align PAGE_SIZE above it, but that belongs to the
syscall table.  If anyone ever moved this section in head.S, the align
16 ensures nothing goes wrong.

[PATCH] ldcw inline assembler patch

[Helge Deller]

There are two reasons to expose the memory *a in the asm:

1) To prevent the compiler from discarding a preceeding write to *a, and
2) to prevent it from caching *a in a register over the asm.

The change has had a few days testing with a SMP build of 2.6.22.19
running on a rp3440.

This patch is about the correctness of the __ldcw() macro itself. 
The use of the macro should be confined to small inline functions 
to try to limit the effect of clobbering memory on GCC's optimization 
of loads and stores.

Re: [PATCH] Change cpu_data[] and cpu_devices[] from array sized by NR_CPUS to per_cpu variables

[Helge Deller]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 179 bytes --]

Updated patch attached, which fixes some build problems and section 
mismatches.
Boot-tested on a UP 32bit machine with CONFIG_SMP=y.

Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Hi James,

If the block is moved, then that's exactly what this .align does not 
ensure.
We had this discussion already here on the list. Please read the full 
thread: http://marc.info/?t=121554765000005&r=1&w=2

Re: [PATCH] compat_sys_ptrace conversions for parisc

[Christoph Hellwig]

This should probably get a little review from Rland, I've added him to
the Cc list.  Although I suspect splitting this into at least two
patches for compat_sys_ptrace vs the rest might make sense.

This sounds like it should be two seperate patches, for at least the
reason of making bisecting easier should there be a problem.

Both of you said someting like this:

I agree that my comment suggests that splitting the patch into two parts 
could make sense to track the changes easier, but if you look into the 
original code you'll see, that I would need to duplicate all of the 
arch_ptrace code and then make the copied part 64bit-ready. Then the 
second patch would delete all of this again and replacing it with the 
generic function calls.
IMHO that's a lot of coding and changes without any need. You'll first 
need to understand coding in my first patch which is then deleted 
afterwards with the second patch again. And if you look at the final 
ptrace.c file after applying my patch which I posted here, you'll see 
that arch_ptrace is now really small and simple to understand.

That said, I'm not very motivated to split my patch.

Helge,
Thanks for tracking and resubmitting this...Carlos already ACK'd and I think
it would be good if kyle added it to his patch queue.

But I liked two other things proposed in this thread.
1) jejb's preference to document the alignement requirement 
2) jda's proposal for ENTRY_ALIGN() (which accomplishes (1))

So I've hacked your patch to include those two things.

I've only build-tested this for 64-bit builds.

thanks,
grant

I agree with both Helge's original patch and this one. Thanks for
making an ENTRY_ALIGN macro. The macro keeps the symbol and alignment
together. Well done.

Cheers,
Carlos.

Can we get this right, please ... we'll get into awful penguin trouble
if he catches us misusing the DCO:

> Signed-off-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@systemhalted.org>

That's not signed off by you.  You only get to add a signed-off-by if
the patch physically passes through your hands.  That means that Grant's
above is correct because he modified the patch and resent it, but yours
isn't because you did nothing with it (and you didn't pass it on).

You can add Acked-by: if you like (that usually means I'm the person in
charge of the relevant code and I approved sending it through someone
else's tree) or Reviewed-by: (I actually looked through the patch and it
seems to be fine to me).

Quite right. Sorry for the cut-n-paste.

Since I wrote the code, I consider myself the maintainer.

Oh, parisc actually uses sys_ptrace as the 32bit entry point.  Yes, I
see your point and take back the suggestion.

For the machines where I've done this work, I've certainly been well-served
by breaking it into many smaller incremental patches.  That would make the
meat of each patch far easier to read than this one big patch is.

It seems odd to have user_disable_single_step call ptrace_disable rather
than vice versa.  Otherwise, off hand I don't see anything particularly
suspect in the patch, but I'll admit I didn't look too close because the
one big diff is a pain to read.


Thanks,
Roland
