* mm: invoke oom-killer from remaining unconverted page fault handlersJohannes Weiner2013-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A few remaining architectures directly kill the page faulting task in an out of memory situation. This is usually not a good idea since that task might not even use a significant amount of memory and so may not be the optimal victim to resolve the situation. Since 2.6.29's 1c0fe6e ("mm: invoke oom-killer from page fault") there is a hook that architecture page fault handlers are supposed to call to invoke the OOM killer and let it pick the right task to kill. Convert the remaining architectures over to this hook. To have the previous behavior of simply taking out the faulting task the vm.oom_kill_allocating_task sysctl can be set to 1.

* ARC: Remove explicit passing around of ECRVineet Gupta2013-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | With ECR now part of pt_regs * No need to propagate from lowest asm handlers as arg * No need to save it in tsk->thread.cause_code * Avoid bit chopping to access the bit-fields More code consolidation, cleanup Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
* ARC: [mm] Remove @write argument to do_page_fault()Vineet Gupta2013-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This can be ascertained within do_page_fault() since it gets the full ECR (Exception Cause Register). Further, for both the callers of do_page_fault(): Prot-V / D-TLB-Miss, the cause sub-fields in ECR are same for same type of access, making the code much more simpler. D-TLB-Miss [LD] 0x00_21_01_00 Prot-V [LD] 0x00_23_01_00 ^^ D-TLB-Miss [ST] 0x00_21_02_00 Prot-V [ST] 0x00_23_02_00 ^^ D-TLB-Miss [EX] 0x00_21_03_00 Prot-V [EX] 0x00_23_03_00 ^^ This helps code consolidation, which is even better when moving code from assembler to "C".

* ARC: Page Fault handlingVineet Gupta2013-02-15
This includes recent changes to make handler "retry" and/or "killable" The killable (early exit) logic is loosely based on how SH implements it return if SIGKILL + either of VM_FAULT_OOM or VM_FAULT_RETRY which is different from Hexagon implementation which would NOT early exit for SIGKILL + VM_FAULT_OOM + !VM_FAULT_RETRY credits: Non executable stack support from Simon Spooner Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
