*	kernel: drop MIPS fix cache flushing for highmem pages	Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant	2018-12-20	1	-30/+0
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch, in a variety of forms, has been around since beginning 2016 as e756c2bb07, ending up in present form 0aa6c7df60 (kernel 4.4.13 bump) and carried forward ever since. There have been a number of MIPS kernel memory handling changes since, including VDSO fixes that meant openwrt patches have been dropped with no apparent fallout. Simple tests (ntfs-3g) on a HIGHMEM 512MB mt7621 device have not turned up data corruption issues which would otherwise be expected. Similarly running on other MIPS based devices for the past 2 months hasn't turned up anything obvious to retain this out of tree patch. With thanks to Rosen Penev for testing on the known 'highmem' device and Felix Fietkau for testing advice. Not putting acked-by as it's my fault if it breaks :-) Signed-off-by: Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant <ldir@darbyshire-bryant.me.uk>
*	kernel: generic: Add kernel 4.14 support	Hauke Mehrtens	2017-12-16	1	-0/+30
	This adds initial support for kernel 4.14 based on the patches for kernel 4.9. In the configuration I deactivated some of the new possible security features like: CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM And these overlay FS options are also deactivated: CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR I activated this: CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS CONFIG_SLAB_MERGE_DEFAULT CONFIG_WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED I am not sure if I did the porting correct for the following patches: target/linux/generic/backport-4.14/020-backport_netfilter_rtcache.patch target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/220-gc_sections.patch target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/321-powerpc_crtsavres_prereq.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/305-mips_module_reloc.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/611-netfilter_match_bypass_default_table.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/680-NET-skip-GRO-for-foreign-MAC-addresses.patch Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
