mainlining shenanigans
88776c0e70
Qemu for PARISC reported on a 32bit SMP parisc kernel strange failures about "Not-handled unaligned insn 0x0e8011d6 and 0x0c2011c9." Those opcodes evaluate to the ldcw() assembly instruction which requires (on 32bit) an alignment of 16 bytes to ensure atomicity. As it turns out, qemu is correct and in our assembly code in entry.S and pacache.S we don't pay attention to the required alignment. This patch fixes the problem by aligning the lock offset in assembly code in the same manner as we do in our C-code. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v4.0+ |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
