Message-ID<rYQC5-6GE-3@gated-at.bofh.it>
Several architectures define ARCH_DLINFO to [sometimes] contain
NEW_AUX_ENT entries, but don't define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH with the
corresponding maximum number of NEW_AUX_ENT entries.

In practice this doesn't cause any problems as AT_VECTOR_SIZE_BASE
includes space for AT_BASE_PLATFORM which none of these arches use, but
nevertheless lets define it now and add the comment above ARCH_DLINFO as
found in several other architectures to remind future modifiers of
ARCH_DLINFO to keep AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH up to date.

Arch maintainers, please take via your own trees if you're happy to do
so.

- I haven't included an update for x86/um as it doesn't follow the same
  pattern as other architectures so it is unclear to me whether it has
  the same issue.

- Build tested on MIPS, ARM & tile.

- Tested on MIPS.

#1449626 — [PATCH 5/5] tile: Define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH for ARCH_DLINFO

FromJames Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com>

Subject[PATCH 5/5] tile: Define AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH for ARCH_DLINFO

In reply to#1449624
AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH should be defined with the maximum number of
NEW_AUX_ENT entries that ARCH_DLINFO can contain, but it wasn't defined
for tile at all even though ARCH_DLINFO will contain one NEW_AUX_ENT for
the VDSO address.

This shouldn't be a problem as AT_VECTOR_SIZE_BASE includes space for
AT_BASE_PLATFORM which tile doesn't use, but lets define it now and add
the comment above ARCH_DLINFO as found in several other architectures to
remind future modifiers of ARCH_DLINFO to keep AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH up to
date.

Yes, I agree.

That sounds like a sensible place for it to me.
