All files which uses user unified macros from uaccess.h
(get_user/put_user/clear_user/copy_tofrom_user/
strnlen_user and strncpy_user) generate this
warning messages:
Assembler messages:
Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .discard
Setting up discard executable section flang for __EX_TABLE_SECTION
macro removed all these warnings.

__pu_val must be volatile to ensure that the value is not lost.
It was causing the problem with timerfd syscall
where using inline asm at the end of function call doesn't
save u64 bit value to the stack.
In comparison both cases you can find out this fragment
where you can see the first part which is saved u64
value to stack and then using it in __put_user_asm_8 macro.
Origin broken implementation misses the first two swi instructions.
swi r22, r1, 28 /* missing without volatile */
swi r23, r1, 32
...
addik r4, r1, 28
lwi r3, r4, 0
swi r3, r25, 0
lwi r3, r4, 4
swi r3, r25, 4
addk r3, r0, r0
NOTE: Moving __put_val initialization after declaration
has not impact on this bug. It is just coding style issue.

Use CONFIG_LOWMEM_SIZE if system has larger ram size.
For system with larger ram size, enable HIGMEM support.
Also setup limitation for memblock and use memblock
allocation in lowmem region.

There is the problem with bit OR (|) because for
some combination is addr | size | addr+size equal
to seq.
For standard kernel setting (kernel starts at 0xC0000000)
is seq for user space 0xBFFFFFFF and everything below
this limit is fine.
But even address 0xBFFFFFFF is fine because it
is below kernel space.

A userland read of more than PAGE_SIZE bytes from /dev/zero results in
(a) not all of the bytes returned being zero, and
(b) memory corruption due to zeroing of bytes beyond the user buffer.
This is caused by improper constraints on the assembly __clear_user function.
The constrints don't indicate to the compiler that the pointer argument is
modified. Since the function is inline, this results in double-incrementing
of the pointer when __clear_user() is invoked through a multi-page read() of
/dev/zero.

__copy_to/from_user_inatomic should call __copy_to/from_user
because there is not necessary to check access because of kernel function.
might_sleep in copy_to/from_user macros is causing problems
in debug sessions too (CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP).
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at

The Microblaze implementations of get_user() and (MMU) put_user() evaluate
the address argument more than once. This causes unexpected side-effects for
invocations that include increment operators, i.e. get_user(foo, bar++).
This patch also removes the distinction between MMU and noMMU put_user().
Without the patch:
$ echo 1234567890 > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern

Here is small regression on dhrystone tests and I think

For 64bits arguments gcc caused that put_user macro
works with wrong value because of optimalization.
Adding volatile caused that gcc not optimized it.
It is possible to use (as Blackfin do) two put_user
macros with 32bits arguments but there is one more
instruction which is due to duplication zero return
value which is called put_user_asm macro.
