      elf coredump: replace ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* macros by functions · 1fcccbac
      Daisuke HATAYAMA authored
      
      elf_core_dump() and elf_fdpic_core_dump() use #ifdef and the corresponding
      macro for hiding _multiline_ logics in functions.  This patch removes
      #ifdef and replaces ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* by corresponding functions.  For
      architectures not implemeonting ELF_CORE_EXTRA_*, we use weak functions in
      order to reduce a range of modification.
      
      This cleanup is for my next patches, but I think this cleanup itself is
      worth doing regardless of my firnal purpose.

      x86: compat_binfmt_elf · 2f79e48a
      Roland McGrath authored
      
      This adds fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c, a wrapper around fs/binfmt_elf.c for
      32-bit ELF support on 64-bit kernels.  It can replace all the hand-rolled
      versions of this that each 32/64 arch has, which are all about the same.
      
      To use this, an arch's asm/elf.h has to define at least a few compat_*
      macros that parallel the various macros that fs/binfmt_elf.c uses for
      native support.
      
      There is no attempt to deal with compat macros for the core dump format
      support.  To use this file, the arch has to define compat_gregset_t for
      linux/elfcore-compat.h and #define CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET.  The 32-bit
      compatible formats should come automatically from task_user_regset_view
      called on a 32-bit task.
