nds32: Remove the architecture

2022-03-07T12:54:59+00:00

The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom 32-bit RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added to the kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes employees. As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V, and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline support any more. While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

uaccess: remove CONFIG_SET_FS

2022-02-25T08:36:06+00:00

There are no remaining callers of set_fs(), so CONFIG_SET_FS can be removed globally, along with the thread_info field and any references to it. This turns access_ok() into a cheaper check against TASK_SIZE_MAX. As CONFIG_SET_FS is now gone, drop all remaining references to set_fs()/get_fs(), mm_segment_t, user_addr_max() and uaccess_kernel(). Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg # for sparc32 changes Acked-by: "Eric W.

mm: remove redundant check about FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY bit

2022-01-15T14:30:27+00:00

Since commit 4064b9827063 ("mm: allow VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times") allowed VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times, the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY bit of fault_flag will not be changed in the page fault path, so the following check is no longer needed: flags & FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY So just remove it.

exit: Remove calls of do_exit after noreturn versions of die

2021-10-20T18:09:47+00:00

On nds32, openrisc, s390, sh, and xtensa the function die never returns. Mark die __noreturn so that no one expects die to return. Remove the do_exit calls after die as they will never be reached.

mm: remove flush_kernel_dcache_page

2021-09-03T16:58:13+00:00

flush_kernel_dcache_page is a rather confusing interface that implements a subset of flush_dcache_page by not being able to properly handle page cache mapped pages. The only callers left are in the exec code as all other previous callers were incorrect as they could have dealt with page cache pages. Replace the calls to flush_kernel_dcache_page with calls to flush_dcache_page, which for all architectures does either exactly the same thing, can contains one or more of the following: 1) an optimization to defer the cache flush for page cache pages not mapped into userspace 2) additional flushing for mapped page cache pages if cache aliases are possible Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210712060928.4161649-7-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Acked-by: Linus Torvalds Reviewed-by: Ira Weiny Cc: Alex Shi Cc: Geoff Levand Cc: Greentime Hu Cc: Guo Ren Cc: Helge Deller Cc: "James E.J.

nds32: fix up stack guard gap

2021-07-21T13:51:37+00:00

Commit 1be7107fbe18 ("mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas") fixed up all architectures to deal with the stack guard gap. But when nds32 was added to the tree, it forgot to do the same thing.

nds32: flush_dcache_page: use page_mapping_file to avoid races with swapoff

2021-04-09T21:54:23+00:00

Commit cb9f753a3731 ("mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcache") updated flush_dcache_page implementations on several architectures to use page_mapping_file() in order to avoid races between page_mapping() and swapoff(). This update missed arch/nds32 and there is a possibility of a race there. Replace page_mapping() with page_mapping_file() in nds32 implementation of flush_dcache_page().

mm: memcontrol: account pagetables per node

2020-12-15T20:13:40+00:00

For many workloads, pagetable consumption is significant and it makes sense to expose it in the memory.stat for the memory cgroups. However at the moment, the pagetables are accounted per-zone. Converting them to per-node and using the right interface will correctly account for the memory cgroups as well.
