2020-07-20s390/kernel: expand exception table logic to allow new handling optionsIlya Leoshkevich
This is a s390 port of commit 548acf19234d ("x86/mm: Expand the exception table logic to allow new handling options"), which is needed for implementing BPF_PROBE_MEM on s390. The new handler field is made 64-bit in order to allow pointing from dynamically allocated entries to handlers in kernel text. Unlike on x86, NULL is used instead of ex_handler_default. This is because exception tables are used by boot/text_dma.S, and it would be a pain to preserve ex_handler_default. The new infrastructure is ignored in early_pgm_check_handler, since there is no pt_regs.

2019-12-13scripts/sorttable: Implement build-time ORC unwind table sortingShile Zhang
The ORC unwinder has two tables: .orc_unwind_ip and .orc_unwind, which need to be sorted for binary search. Previously this sorting was done during bootup. Sort them at build time to speed up booting. Add the ORC tables sorting in a parallel build process to speed up the build.

2019-12-13scripts/sorttable: Rename 'sortextable' to 'sorttable'Shile Zhang
Use a more generic name for additional table sorting usecases, such as the upcoming ORC table sorting feature. This tool is not tied to exception table sorting anymore. No functional changes intended.
