[GIT PULL] Metag architecture and related fixes for v3.15

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Linus,

Please pull the following metag / parisc fixes, mostly relating to upgrowing
stacks. These changes only affect metag and parisc, and although the
asm-generic one isn't strictly a fix it's simple and follows naturally from
the other _STK_LIM_MAX override removals (here for metag and in rc4 for
parisc).

Thanks
James

  asm-generic: remove _STK_LIM_MAX (2014-05-15 00:32:09 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Metag architecture and related fixes for v3.15

Mostly fixes for metag and parisc relating to upgrowing stacks.

* Fix missing compiler barriers in metag memory barriers.
* Fix BUG_ON on metag when RLIMIT_STACK hard limit is increased beyond
  safe value.
* Make maximum stack size configurable. This reduces the default user
  stack size back to 80MB (especially on parisc after their removal of
  _STK_LIM_MAX override). This only affects metag and parisc.
* Remove metag _STK_LIM_MAX override to match other arches and follow
  parisc, now that it is safe to do so (due to the BUG_ON fix mentioned
  above).
* Finally now that both metag and parisc _STK_LIM_MAX overrides have
  been removed, it makes sense to remove _STK_LIM_MAX altogether.
