[MIPS] signals: Share even more code.

2007-02-18T21:31:35+00:00

native and compat do_signal and handle_signal are identical and can easily
be unified.

[MIPS] Use kallsyms_lookup_size_offset() instead of kallsyms_lookup()

2006-10-19T16:55:12+00:00

This new routine doesn't lookup for symbol names. So we needn't
to pass any char buffers or pointer since we don't care about
names.

[MIPS] Make sure cpu_has_fpu is used only in atomic context

2006-10-09T22:20:48+00:00

Make sure cpu_has_fpu (which uses smp_processor_id()) is used only in
atomic context.

[MIPS] Make unwind_stack() can dig into interrupted context

2006-10-01T22:16:59+00:00

If the PC was ret_from_irq or ret_from_exception, there will be no
more normal stackframe.  Instead of stopping the unwinding, use PC and
RA saved by an exception handler to continue unwinding into the
interrupted context.  This also simplifies the CONFIG_STACKTRACE code.

[MIPS] lockdep: Add STACKTRACE_SUPPORT and enable LOCKDEP_SUPPORT

2006-10-01T22:16:57+00:00

support in Kconfig.

[MIPS] get_wchan(): remove uses of mfinfo[64]

2006-09-27T12:37:58+00:00

This array was used to 'cache' some frame info about scheduler
functions to speed up get_wchan(). This array was 1Ko size and
was only used when CONFIG_KALLSYMS was set but declared for all
configs.

Rather than make the array statement conditional, this patches
removes this array and its uses. Indeed the common case doesn't
seem to use this array and get_wchan() is not a critical path
anyways.

It results in a smaller bss and a smaller/cleaner code:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
2543808  254148  139296 2937252  2cd1a4 vmlinux-new-get-wchan

[MIPS] get_frame_info(): null function size means size is unknown

2006-09-27T12:37:58+00:00

This patch adds 2 sanity checks.

The first one test that the start address of the function to analyze has been
set by the caller. If not return an error since nothing usefull can be done
without.

The second one checks that the function's size has been set. A null size can
happen if CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set and it means that we don't know the size
of the function to analyze. In this case, we make it equal to 128 instructions
by default.
