ARM: probes: move all probe code to dedicate directory

ARM: probes: fix instruction fetch order with

2014-04-01T13:45:19+00:00

If we are running BE8, the data and instruction endianness do not match, so use to correctly translate memory accesses into ARM instructions. Acked-by: Jon Medhurst Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks [taras.kondratiuk@linaro.org: fixed Thumb instruction fetch order] Signed-off-by: Taras Kondratiuk

ARM: Add an emulate flag to the kprobes/uprobes instruction decode functions

2014-03-18T20:39:39+00:00

Add an emulate flag into the instruction interpreter, primarily for uprobes support. Signed-off-by: David A. Long Acked-by: Jon Medhurst

ARM: Change the remaining shared kprobes/uprobes symbols to something generic

2014-03-18T20:39:39+00:00

Any more ARM kprobes/uprobes symbols which have "kprobe" in the name must be changed to the more generic "probes" or other non-kprobes specific symbol. Signed-off-by: David A. Long Acked-by: Jon Medhurst

ARM: Change more ARM kprobes symbol names to something more generic

2014-03-18T20:39:38+00:00

Change kprobe_emulate_none, kprobe_simulate_nop, and arm_kprobe_decode_init function names to something more appropriate for code being shared outside of the kprobes subsystem. Also, move the new arm_probes_decode_init declaration out of the kprobes.h include file and into the probes.h include file. Signed-off-by: David A. Long Acked-by: Jon Medhurst

ARM: Remove use of struct kprobe from generic probes code

2014-03-18T20:39:37+00:00

Change the generic ARM probes code to pass in the opcode and architecture-specific structure separately instead of using struct kprobe, so we do not pollute code being used only for uprobes or other non-kprobes instruction interpretation. Signed-off-by: David A. Long Acked-by: Jon Medhurst

ARM: use a function table for determining instruction interpreter action

2014-03-18T20:39:36+00:00

Make the instruction interpreter call back to semantic action functions through a function pointer array provided by the invoker. The interpreter decodes the instructions into groups and uses the group number to index into the supplied array. kprobes and uprobes code will each supply their own array of functions.

ARM: Fix missing includes in kprobes sources

2014-03-18T20:39:34+00:00

Make sure includes in ARM kprobes sources are done explicitly. Do not rely on includes from other includes. Signed-off-by: David A. Long Acked-by: Jon Medhurst

ARM: 7862/1: pcpu: replace __get_cpu_var_uses

2013-10-29T11:06:27+00:00

This is the ARM part of Christoph's patchset cleaning up the various uses of __get_cpu_var across the tree. The idea is to convert __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and fewer registers are used when code is generated.

hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators

2013-02-28T03:10:24+00:00

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S | for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S | ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S | ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S | inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S | sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S | for_each_host(a, - b, c) S | for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] [akpm@linux-foudnation.org: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin Acked-by: Paul E.
