2020-05-25Documentation/features: Refresh the arch support status filesBjörn Töpel
I was manually editing the arch-support.txt for eBPF-JIT, when I realized the refresh script [1] has not been run for a while. Let's fix that, so that the entries are more up-to-date.

2018-12-20xtensa: implement jump_label supportMax Filippov
Use 3-byte 'nop' and 'j' instructions that are always present. Don't let assembler mark a spot right after patchable 'j' instruction as unreachable and later put literals or padding bytes there. Add separate implementations of patch_text for SMP and UP cases, avoiding use of atomics on UP. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@gmail.com>

and 'eBPF-JIT' Commit 6077776b5908e split 'HAVE_BPF_JIT' into cBPF and eBPF variant. Adds arch support status files for the new variants, and removes the status file corresponding to 'HAVE_BPT_JIT'. The new status matrices were auto-generated using the script 'features-refresh.sh'.

2018-03-26Documentation: arch-support: remove obsolete architecturesArnd Bergmann
A number of architecture ports are obsolete and getting dropped, so we no longer want to track the respective features. We already removed the lines for metag and mn10300, this does the same edits for all the others. For the remaining 21 architectures, this shows how many are known to implement each given feature: 19 time/modern-timekeeping/arch-support.txt 19 time/clockevents/arch-support.txt 15 core/tracehook/arch-support.txt 14 core/generic-idle-thread/arch-support.txt 13 locking/lockdep/arch-support.txt 12 io/dma-api-debug/arch-support.txt 11 debug/kgdb/arch-support.txt 10 time/virt-cpuacct/arch-support.txt 9 debug/kretprobes/arch-support.txt 9 debug/kprobes/arch-support.txt 8 vm/THP/arch-support.txt 8 vm/pte_special/arch-support.txt 8 vm/numa-memblock/arch-support.txt 8 io/sg-chain/arch-support.txt 7 perf/kprobes-event/arch-support.txt 7 locking/rwsem-optimized/arch-support.txt 7 debug/gcov-profile-all/arch-support.txt 7 core/jump-labels/arch-support.txt 7 core/BPF-JIT/arch-support.txt 6 vm/ELF-ASLR/arch-support.txt 6 time/context-tracking/arch-support.txt 6 seccomp/seccomp-filter/arch-support.txt 6 debug/stackprotector/arch-support.txt 5 time/irq-time-acct/arch-support.txt 5 io/dma-contiguous/arch-support.txt 5 debug/uprobes/arch-support.txt 4 vm/ioremap_prot/arch-support.txt 4 time/arch-tick-broadcast/arch-support.txt 4 perf/perf-stackdump/arch-support.txt 4 perf/perf-regs/arch-support.txt 3 debug/KASAN/arch-support.txt 2 vm/PG_uncached/arch-support.txt 2 vm/huge-vmap/arch-support.txt 2 sched/numa-balancing/arch-support.txt 2 sched/membarrier-sync-core/arch-support.txt 2 locking/cmpxchg-local/arch-support.txt 2 debug/optprobes/arch-support.txt 2 debug/kprobes-on-ftrace/arch-support.txt 1 vm/TLB/arch-support.txt 1 locking/queued-spinlocks/arch-support.txt 1 locking/queued-rwlocks/arch-support.txt 1 debug/user-ret-profiler/arch-support.txt 0 lib/strncasecmp/arch-support.txt Note that the list does not include riscv or nds32 yet, these still need to be added.
