Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

2019-01-04T02:57:57Z

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

fb: amifb: fix build warnings when not builtin

2018-07-31T11:06:58Z

Fix build warning when built as a loadable module. amifb_setup() and amifb_setup_mcap() are only needed when the driver is builtin. This matches how the functions are called (using #ifndef MODULE). ../drivers/video/fbdev/amifb.c:2344:19: warning: 'amifb_setup' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] static int __init amifb_setup(char *options) ../drivers/video/fbdev/amifb.c:2307:20: warning: 'amifb_setup_mcap' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] static void __init amifb_setup_mcap(char *spec) Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Reviewed-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz

video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev

2014-04-17T05:10:19Z

The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev device drivers, fbdev framework files. Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev directory, and move all fbdev related files there. No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this patch.
