And they weren't even fields # that the code in question mostly cared about. # # The flush_tlb_range() function takes a "struct vma" rather than a # "struct mm_struct", because a few architectures actually care about what # kind of range it is - being able to only do an ITLB flush if it's a # range that doesn't have data accesses enabled, for example. And all the # normal users already have the vma for doing the range invalidation. # # But a few people want to call flush_tlb_range() with a range they just # made up, so they also end up using a made-up vma. x86 just has a # special "flush_tlb_mm_range()" function for this, but other # architectures (arm and ia64) do the "use fake vma" thing instead, and # thus got caught up in the vma_init() changes. # # At the same time, the TLB flushing code really doesn't care about most # other fields in the vma, so vma_init() is just unnecessary and # pointless. # # This fixes things by having an explicit "this is just an initializer for # the TLB flush" initializer macro, which is used by the arm/arm64/ia64 # people who mis-use this interface with just a dummy vma. # # Fixes: 2c4541e24c55 ("mm: use vma_init() to initialize VMAs on stack and data segments") # Cc: Dmitry Vyukov # Cc: Oleg Nesterov # Cc: Andrea Arcangeli # Cc: Kirill Shutemov # Cc: Andrew Morton # Cc: John Stultz # Cc: Hugh Dickins # Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/sh4-linux/bin/sh4-linux-gcc --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 8b11ec1b5ffb54f71cb5a5e5c8c4d36e5d113085 # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=sh O=/kisskb/build/linus_se7722_defconfig_sh4 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/sh4-linux/bin/sh4-linux- se7722_defconfig # make -s -j 48 ARCH=sh O=/kisskb/build/linus_se7722_defconfig_sh4 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/sh4-linux/bin/sh4-linux- Generating include/generated/machtypes.h :1317:2: warning: #warning syscall pkey_mprotect not implemented [-Wcpp] :1320:2: warning: #warning syscall pkey_alloc not implemented [-Wcpp] :1323:2: warning: #warning syscall pkey_free not implemented [-Wcpp] :1326:2: warning: #warning syscall statx not implemented [-Wcpp] :1332:2: warning: #warning syscall io_pgetevents not implemented [-Wcpp] :1335:2: warning: #warning syscall rseq not implemented [-Wcpp] /kisskb/src/arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4/../sh3/../../entry-common.S: Assembler messages: /kisskb/src/arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4/../sh3/../../entry-common.S:389: Warning: overflow in branch to syscall_exit_work; converted into longer instruction sequence /kisskb/src/arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4/../sh3/../../entry-common.S:392: Warning: overflow in branch to syscall_exit_work; converted into longer instruction sequence /kisskb/src/kernel/rcu/srcutree.c: In function 'init_srcu_struct_fields': /kisskb/src/kernel/rcu/srcutree.c:127:33: warning: 'levelspread[]' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/kernel/rcu/srcutree.c:94:6: note: 'levelspread[]' was declared here /kisskb/src/kernel/printk/printk.c: In function 'devkmsg_sysctl_set_loglvl': /kisskb/src/kernel/printk/printk.c:183:16: warning: 'old' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/mm/vmstat.c: In function 'sysctl_vm_numa_stat_handler': /kisskb/src/mm/vmstat.c:89:5: warning: 'oldval' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/fs/proc/inode.c: In function 'proc_reg_open': /kisskb/src/include/linux/list.h:65:12: warning: 'pdeo' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/fs/proc/inode.c:339:21: note: 'pdeo' was declared here /kisskb/src/mm/hugetlb.c: In function 'alloc_pool_huge_page': /kisskb/src/mm/hugetlb.c:1433:5: warning: 'page' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c: In function 'r8': /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c:41:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'ioread8' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default] /kisskb/src/include/asm-generic/iomap.h:29:21: note: expected 'void *' but argument is of type 'const void *' /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c: In function 'r16': /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c:46:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'ioread16' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default] /kisskb/src/include/asm-generic/iomap.h:30:21: note: expected 'void *' but argument is of type 'const void *' /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c: In function 'r32': /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c:51:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'ioread32' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default] /kisskb/src/include/asm-generic/iomap.h:32:21: note: expected 'void *' but argument is of type 'const void *' Kernel: arch/sh/boot/zImage is ready Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/linus_se7722_defconfig_sh4 # Build took: 0:00:31.941765
