2016-10-05MIPS: kvm: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.hPaul Gortmaker1-1/+0
Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. In the case of kvm where it is modular, we can extend that to also include files that are building basic support functionality but not related to loading or registering the final module; such files also have no need whatsoever for module.h The advantage in removing such instances is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each instance for the presence of either and replace as needed. In this case, we did not need to add either to any files.

2016-06-15MIPS: KVM: Move commpage so 0x0 is unmappedJames Hogan1-1/+1
The comm page which is mapped into the guest kernel address space at 0x0 has the unfortunate side effect of allowing guest kernel NULL pointer dereferences to succeed. The only constraint on this address is that it must be within 32KiB of 0x0, so that single lw/sw instructions (which have 16-bit signed offset fields) can be used to access it, using the zero register as a base. So lets move the comm page as high as possible within that constraint so that 0x0 can be left unmapped, at least for page sizes < 32KiB.

2014-06-30MIPS: KVM: Skip memory cleaning in kvm_mips_commpage_init()Deng-Cheng Zhu1-3/+0
The commpage is allocated using kzalloc(), so there's no need of cleaning the memory of the kvm_mips_commpage struct and its internal mips_coproc.

2014-06-30MIPS: KVM: Rename files to remove the prefix "kvm_" and "kvm_mips_"Deng-Cheng Zhu1-0/+36
Since all the files are in arch/mips/kvm/, there's no need of the prefixes "kvm_" and "kvm_mips_". Reviewed-by: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by: Deng-Cheng Zhu <dengcheng.zhu@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
