From b7683fc66eba91674e52c30f4d8e596bfb5cbcf4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Ellerman Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2018 15:53:22 +1000 Subject: selftests/powerpc: Add a test of wild bctr This tests that a bctr (Branch to counter and link), ie. a function call, to a wildly out-of-bounds address is handled correctly. Some old kernel versions didn't handle it correctly, see eg: "powerpc/slb: Force a full SLB flush when we insert for a bad EA" https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2017-April/157397.html Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman --- tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm/Makefile | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm/Makefile') diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm/Makefile b/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm/Makefile index 33ced6e0ad25..43d68420e363 100644 --- a/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm/Makefile +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm/Makefile @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ noarg: $(MAKE) -C ../ -TEST_GEN_PROGS := hugetlb_vs_thp_test subpage_prot prot_sao segv_errors +TEST_GEN_PROGS := hugetlb_vs_thp_test subpage_prot prot_sao segv_errors wild_bctr TEST_GEN_FILES := tempfile top_srcdir = ../../../../.. @@ -12,6 +12,8 @@ $(TEST_GEN_PROGS): ../harness.c $(OUTPUT)/prot_sao: ../utils.c +$(OUTPUT)/wild_bctr: CFLAGS += -m64 + $(OUTPUT)/tempfile: dd if=/dev/zero of=$@ bs=64k count=1 -- cgit v1.2.3-59-g8ed1b
