2007-09-19 | [POWERPC] spufs: Combine spufs_coredump_calls with spufs_calls | Michael Ellerman | |
Because spufs might be built as a module, we can't have other parts of the kernel calling directly into it, we need stub routines that check first if the module is loaded. Currently we have two structures which hold callbacks for these stubs, the syscalls are in spufs_calls and the coredump calls are in spufs_coredump_calls. In both cases the logic for registering/unregistering is essentially the same, so we can simplify things by combining the two.

2007-09-19 | [POWERPC] spufs: Don't return -ENOSYS as extra notes size if spufs is not loaded | Michael Ellerman | |
Because the SPU coredump code might be built as part of a module (spufs), we have a stub which is called by the coredump code, this routine then calls into spufs if it's loaded. Unfortunately the stub returns -ENOSYS if spufs is not loaded, which is interpreted by the coredump code as an extra note size of -38 bytes. This leads to a corrupt core dump. If spufs is not loaded there will be no SPU ELF notes to write, and so the extra notes size will be == 0.

2007-04-23 | [POWERPC] spufs: enable SPU coredump for kernel-builtin spufs | Akinobu Mita | |
spu_coredump_calls.owner is NULL in case of a builtin spufs, so the checks in here break. Check for the availability of the spu_coredump_calls variable instead. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com> | |||
2006-12-04 | [POWERPC] coredump: Add SPU elf notes to coredump. | Dwayne Grant McConnell | |
This patch adds SPU elf notes to the coredump. It creates a separate note for each of /regs, /fpcr, /lslr, /decr, /decr_status, /mem, /signal1, /signal1_type, /signal2, /signal2_type, /event_mask, /event_status, /mbox_info, /ibox_info, /wbox_info, /dma_info, /proxydma_info, /object-id. A new macro, ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created for architectures to specify they have extra elf core notes. A new macro, ELF_CORE_EXTRA_NOTES_SIZE, was created so the size of the additional notes could be calculated and added to the notes phdr entry. A new macro, ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created so the new notes would be written after the existing notes. The SPU coredump code resides in spufs. Stub functions are provided in the kernel which are hooked into the spufs code which does the actual work via register_arch_coredump_calls(). A new set of __spufs_<file>_read/get() functions was provided to allow the coredump code to read from the spufs files without having to lock the SPU context for each file read from.
