This tag contains the fixes we'd like to target for the 4.16 merge window. It's not as much as I was originally hoping to do but between glibc, the chip, and FOSDEM there just wasn't enough time to get everything put together. As such, this merge window is essentially just going to be small changes. This includes mostly cleanups: * A build fix failure to the audit test cases. RISC-V doesn't have renameat because the generic syscall ABI moved to renameat2 by the time of our port. The syscall audit test cases don't understand this, so I added a trivial fix. This went through mailing list review during the 4.15 merge window, but nobody has picked it up so I think it's best to just do this here. * The removal of our command-line argument processing code. The "mem_end" stuff was broken and the rest duplicated generic device tree code. The generic code was already being called. * Some unused/redundant code has been removed, including __ARCH_HAVE_MMU, current_pgdir, and the initialization of init_mm.pgd. * SUM is disabled upon taking a trap, which means that user memory is protected during traps taking inside copy_{to,from}_user(). * The sptbr CSR has been renamed to satp in C code. We haven't changed the assembly code in order to maintain compatibility with binutils 2.29, which doesn't understand the new name. Additionally, we're adding some new features: * Basic ftrace support, thanks to Alan Kao! * Support for ZONE_DMA32. This is necessary for all the normal reasons, but also to deal with a deficiency in the Xilinx PCIe controller we're using on our FPGA-based systems. While the ZONE_DMA32 addition should be sufficient for most uses, it doesn't complete the fix for the Xilinx controller. * TLB shootdowns now only target the harts where they're necessary, instead of applying to all harts in the system. These patches have all been sitting on our linux-next branch for a while now. Due to time constraints this is all I feel comfortable submitting during the 4.16 merge window, hopefully we'll do better next time! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCAAxFiEEAM520YNJYN/OiG3470yhUCzLq0EFAlp7N2gTHHBhbG1lckBk YWJiZWx0LmNvbQAKCRDvTKFQLMurQX8kD/4xxw6TuuESmDXxAQPQ+S8J98uKRfAF 9kMMzJJARcW5sT1vo3pKpE8+Ss0Hy2fIcaYsw5Je/Yl7vdAy/Dk7X3/mx7mxf5BP 8m2cSd7DFLLLhntZTbr1Y5fJ6awFLtzI46zn/SzTdTatLWKXNLS5wmPKE33ddq/C iTi4k/as8E/vuNtuPy1GsOF0gICpZ2xB4YoMwTgWfpxTekBkUktO3EOHmZTwQEEM U1muB+4WoqusbBt6cP3Q7cUF3b6aMVSevWnywZGkD+yWOGRXTVzMgT7R4YlKEOre OQypZocYUbRmZQMZACKpgHIcOZpePaSTIQ2zzhXEPVGB0XAHtMRnAaVtwPxwG6c4 EThDCN9ldShutKqT4XilHrh5gf0sy7qG0PIidPhMmXH9LCeTSAU4VdISJP1jkq19 chiMHlf6+/DhikyiH0+lK/MX8vQMt6UJL1SlRKO/c2FxxKAZKnENJ+tuAlkAlwoC gnvZsE5BUYw1ptRHXR0d5C4m8M2M9LPZfpWYcg+1mRO9EA+kt0XCupL7RsrdFuoa FCVEhP/JMaiX0JtmAHfVIU0yNGjH3b5xi3FoGk2Aoj/c8O3F5YcwT5C5nO+jpv32 n9vyMR20/721+yA2dFIlq4DnelwdZczOTqrcDYJrLxXzk8OXUFFffbe4kbDCxp34 WniBxwnY9BF25g== =cNRH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-4.16-merge_window' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/riscv-linux Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt: "This contains the fixes we'd like to target for the 4.16 merge window.
