getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

Offset -8 is wrong because when it is applied then one instruction
before brki r14, 8 is called again when we return.
Offset -4 is correct and brki instruction is called again.

When u-boot passes control over to Linux it places the Linux command
line between to the end of __init_end. When space between
__init_end and __bss_start is not COMMAND_LINE_SIZE then
the part of cmdline can be lost.
In extreme case if __init_end == __bss_start u-boot can't pass
any cmdline to Linux kernel.
This patch fix this issue by copying cmd line directly to
cmd_line char array which is placed in data section.

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when
sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).
I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

ftrace_update_ftrace_func setups pointer to function which is called

As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do
retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is
incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is
pending in the shared queue.
Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f2
("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code
across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong,
so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

There are a couple of problems with the current signal code,
1. If we failed to setup the signal stack frame then we should not be
masking any signals.
2. ka->sa.sa_mask is only added to the current blocked signals list if
SA_NODEFER is set in ka->sa.sa_flags. If we successfully setup the
signal frame and are going to run the handler then we must honour
sa_mask.

get_signal_to_deliver() already resets the signal handler if SA_ONESHOT is

Furthermore, because we were modifying ka->sa.sa_handler (which is a copy
of sighand->action[]) instead of sighand->action[] the original code
actually had no effect on signal delivery.

Instead of open coding the sequence from force_sigsegv() just call it.
This also fixes a bug because we were modifying ka->sa.sa_handler (which
is a copy of sighand->action[]), whereas the intention of the code was to
modify sighand->action[] directly.
As the original code was working with a copy it had no effect on signal
delivery.

This change is inspired by
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/14
which fixes the build warnings for arches that don't support
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER.
In particular, there is no requirement for the return value of
secure_computing() to be checked unless the architecture supports
seccomp filter. Instead of silencing the warnings with (void)
a new static inline is added to encode the expected behavior
in a compiler and human friendly way.
v2: - cleans things up with a static inline
- removes sfr's signed-off-by since it is a different approach
v1: - matches sfr's original change

This patch fix the problem with rootfs on JFFS2 with early printk
console turned on.
The origin version used TLB63 for temporary early printk mapping.
The code expect that kernel is not able to use all 64 TLB entries
till early printk console is remapped by ioremap. After that
temporary mapping on TLB63 is silently lost.
This expectation give the opportunity to have early console pretty
early.
Microblaze systems with JFFS2 rootfs with early printk console turned on
used more than 64 TLB entries before kernel can remap early console.
Based on that kernel does access to bad area because early printk mapping
is rewritten.
This patch introduces tlb_skip variable which dynamically stores number
of skipped TLB entries from the TLB0. skip_tlb=2 means that TLB0 and TLB1
should be skipped.
MICROBLAZE_TLB_SKIP defines how many TLB is skipped at the kernel start.
They can be used for user purpose.
TLB 63 is used for temporary LMB mapping (MICROBLAZE_LMB_TLB_ID).
Also clean TLBLO when kernel starts.
For specific kernel sizes kernel can use just one TLB. Detect this case
and use the second TLB for general purpose.
Change _tlbia function to flush TLB entries from tlb_skip to TLB_SIZE.
Export tlb_skip size through debugfs.
