Subject: [PATCH V5 00/13] POWER DSCR fixes, improvements, docs and tests
This patch series has patches for POWER DSCR fixes, improvements,
in code documentaion, kernel support user documentation and selftest based
test cases. It has got five test cases which are derived from Anton's DSCR
test bucket which can be listed as follows.
(1) http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_default_test.c
(2) http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_explicit_test.c
(3) http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_inherit_exec_test.c
(4) http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/dscr_inherit_test.c
(5) http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/user_dscr_test.c
NOTE1: Anton's original inherit exec test expected the child to have
system default DSCR value instead of the inherited DSCR value from
it's parent. But looks like thats not the case when we execute the
test, it always inherits it's parent's DSCR value over the exec call
as well. So I have changed the test program assuming its correct to
have the inherited DSCR value in the fork/execed child program.
Please let me know if thats not correct and I am missing something
there.
Changes in V5:
-------------
- Fixed build problem with get_default_dscr/set_default_dscr functions
by checking on the return values of read & write system calls.
Changes in V4: (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/18/215)
--------------
- Restoring the system DSCR default value in test cases before exiting
- Removed new-line from all the perror() calls
- Some minor cosmetic changes to the test cases
- Added Anton's SOB to the above mentioned five derived test cases
Changes in V3: (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/10/117)
--------------
- Minor changes to last couple of sysfs test cases
- Added .gitignore file for the new test directory
Changes in V2: (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/13/148)
-------------
- Updated the thread struct DSCR value inside mtspr facility exception path
- Modified the in code documentation to follow the kernel-doc format
- Added seven selftest based DSCR related test cases under powerpc
