Linus Torvalds 89261c5702 Here's the main MIPS pull for Linux 4.21. Core architecture changes ... include: - Syscall tables & definitions for unistd.h are now generated by scripts, providing greater consistency with other architectures & making it easier to add new syscalls. - Support for building kernels with no floating point support, upon which any userland attempting to use floating point instructions will receive a SIGILL. Mostly useful to shrink the kernel & as preparation for nanoMIPS support which does not yet include FP. - MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) vector register context is now exposed by ptrace via a new NT_MIPS_MSA regset. - ASIDs are now stored as 64b values even for MIPS32 kernels, expanding the ASID version field sufficiently that we don't need to worry about overflow & avoiding rare issues with reused ASIDs that have been observed in the wild. - The branch delay slot "emulation" page is now mapped without write permission for the user, preventing its use as a nice location for attacks to execute malicious code from. - Support for ioremap_prot(), primarily to allow gdb or other ptrace users the ability to view their tracee's memory using the same cache coherency attribute. - Optimizations to more cpu_has_* macros, allowing more to be compile-time constant where possible. - Enable building the whole kernel with UBSAN instrumentation. - Enable building the kernel with link-time dead code & data elimination. Platform specific changes include: - The Boston board gains a workaround for DMA prefetching issues with the EG20T Platform Controller Hub that it uses. - Cleanups to Cavium Octeon code removing about 20k lines of redundant code, mostly unused or duplicate register definitions in headers. - defconfig updates for the DECstation machines, including new defconfigs for r4k & 64b machines. - Further work on Loongson 3 support. - DMA fixes for SiByte machines. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIsEABYIADMWIQRgLjeFAZEXQzy86/s+p5+stXUA3QUCXB+vwBUccGF1bC5idXJ0 b25AbWlwcy5jb20ACgkQPqefrLV1AN3/EgD9Givei//X2oTd4w8HSe/uPeVkMnbA 93WMi1cS0EogAaUA/R7poLSnAE74mt+DT4PrGdQezUbXts9vUF/7VX0MvFIF =hmtJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mips_4.21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mips/linux Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton: "Here's the main MIPS pull for Linux 4.21.
