* powerpc/ptrace: Enable support for Performance Monitor registersAnshuman Khandual2016-07-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables support for Performance monitor registers related ELF core note NT_PPC_PMU based ptrace requests through PTRACE_GETREGSET, PTRACE_SETREGSET calls. This is achieved through adding one new register sets REGSET_PMU in powerpc corresponding to the ELF core note sections added in this regard. It also implements the get, set and active functions for this new register sets added.

* powerpc/module: Handle R_PPC64_ENTRY relocationsUlrich Weigand2016-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 6 will include changes to generated code with -mcmodel=large, which is used to build kernel modules on powerpc64le. This was necessary because the large model is supposed to allow arbitrary sizes and locations of the code and data sections, but the ELFv2 global entry point prolog still made the unconditional assumption that the TOC associated with any particular function can be found within 2 GB of the function entry point: func: addis r2,r12,(.TOC.-func)@ha addi r2,r2,(.TOC.-func)@l .localentry func, .-func To remove this assumption, GCC will now generate instead this global entry point prolog sequence when using -mcmodel=large: .quad .TOC.-func func: .reloc ., R_PPC64_ENTRY ld r2, -8(r12) add r2, r2, r12 .localentry func, .-func The new .reloc triggers an optimization in the linker that will replace this new prolog with the original code (see above) if the linker determines that the distance between .TOC. and func is in range after all. Since this new relocation is now present in module object files, the kernel module loader is required to handle them too. This patch adds support for the new relocation and implements the same optimization done by the GNU linker.
