[PATCH v7 6/9] ARM: miscellaneous vdso infrastructure, preparation

Nathan Lynch nathan_lynch at mentor.com
Sun Jun 22 20:11:55 PDT 2014


Define the layout of the data structure shared between kernel and
userspace.

Track the vdso address in the mm_context; needed for reporting [vdso]
via /proc/pid/maps and communicating AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the ELF
loader.

Add declarations for vma_is_vdso, arm_install_vdso, and !CONFIG_VDSO
implementations of same.  The CONFIG_VDSO=y implementations of these
come later.

Make arch_vma_name recognize a vdso VMA, using vma_is_vdso to return
"[vdso]" when appropriate.

Define AT_SYSINFO_EHDR, and, if CONFIG_VDSO=y, report the vdso shared
object address via the ELF auxiliary vector.

Note - this adds the AT_SYSINFO_EHDR in a new user-visible header
asm/auxvec.h; this is consistent with other architectures.
