From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Sat Aug 31 2019 - 06:18:31 EST


The purpose of this serie is to enable CONFIG_VMAP_STACK on PPC32.

For the time being we have something working on 8xx.

Further work I'm working on:
- Fix stack overflow detection (doesn't work all the time yet, with the LKDTM STACK_EXHAUST test it hang).
- Add support to powerpc 603
- Add support to all book3s32

v2: added stack overflow detection.

Christophe Leroy (10):
powerpc/32: replace MTMSRD() by mtmsr
powerpc/32: Add EXCEPTION_PROLOG_0 in head_32.h
powerpc/32: prepare for CONFIG_VMAP_STACK
powerpc/8xx: Use alternative scratch registers in DTLB miss handler
powerpc/8xx: drop exception entries for non-existing exceptions
powerpc/8xx: move DataStoreTLBMiss perf handler
powerpc/8xx: split breakpoint exception
powerpc/8xx: Enable CONFIG_VMAP_STACK
powerpc: align stack to 2 * THREAD_SIZE with VMAP_STACK
powerpc/32: Add stack overflow detection with VMAP stack.
