[v3] arm64, ia64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, um, x86, mm: Remove default gate area

Message ID 70f331f59e620dc4e66bd3fa095e6f6b744b532b.1405281639.git.luto@amacapital.net (mailing list archive)

The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
!defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).

This default is only useful for ia64.  arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile,
64-bit UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it.  arm,
32-bit UML, and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own
implementations.

This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.

This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's
now possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

It would be nice to get this into some tree that's in -next and that
people can base on.

Changes from v1 and v2: Nothing except Will Deacon's ack and splitting
this out from the larger series.

Can one of you pull this somewhere?  Otherwise I can put it somewhere
stable and ask for -next inclusion, but that seems like overkill for a
single patch.

I'd be happy to take the arm64 part, but it doesn't feel right for mm/*
changes (or changes to other archs) to go via our tree.

I'm not sure what the best approach is if you want to send this via a single
tree. Maybe you could ask akpm nicely?

Going though Andrew's tree sounds sane to me.

FWIW:

This patch allows me to avoid adding a bunch of empty hooks to arch/arm
when adding VDSO support:

I'm fine with it as-is.
