From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2017 01:42:32 +0000 (-0600) Subject: livepatch/powerpc: add TIF_PATCH_PENDING thread flag X-Git-Tag: v4.12-rc1~125^2^2~12 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a768f78429fd9b0b07f5795dd62f31a519fc1bae;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git livepatch/powerpc: add TIF_PATCH_PENDING thread flag Add the TIF_PATCH_PENDING thread flag to enable the new livepatch per-task consistency model for powerpc. The bit getting set indicates the thread has a pending patch which needs to be applied when the thread exits the kernel. The bit is included in the _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK macro so that do_notify_resume() and klp_update_patch_state() get called when the bit is set.
