Subject: [PATCH 0/9] ARM: remove set_fs callers and implementation
Date: Mon,  7 Sep 2020 17:36:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200907153701.2981205-1-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)

Hi Christoph, Russell,

As promised, here is my series to remove set_fs() from arch/arm based
on the architecture-independent patches.

I have tested the oabi-compat changes using the LTP tests for the three
modified syscalls using an Armv7 kernel and a Debian 5 OABI user space,
and I have lightly tested the get_kernel_nofault infrastructure by
loading the test_lockup.ko module after setting CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK.

Let me know if there is a more thorough test I should try.

Overall there is a bit of ugliness getting introduced in the oabi compat
code and for adding another code path for TUSER(). If anyone has a better
idea, I can try out a different way.

I assume these patches can go through Al's tree along with the
corresponding changes for other architectures, once Russell is happy
with them.

Please review.
