      [PATCH] FRV: Make the FRV arch work again · 8080f231
      David Howells 提交于
      The attached patch implements a bunch of small changes to the FRV arch to
      make it work again.
      
      It deals with the following problems:
      
       (1) SEM_DEBUG should be SEMAPHORE_DEBUG.
      
       (2) The argument list to pcibios_penalize_isa_irq() has changed.
      
       (3) CONFIG_HIGHMEM can't be used directly in #if as it may not be defined.
      
       (4) page->private is no longer directly accessible.
      
       (5) linux/hardirq.h assumes asm/hardirq.h will include linux/irq.h
      
       (6) The IDE MMIO access functions are given pointers, not integers, and so
           get type casting errors.
      
       (7) __pa() is passed an explicit u64 type in drivers/char/mem.c, but that
           can't be cast directly to a pointer on a 32-bit platform.
      
       (8) SEMAPHORE_DEBUG should not be contingent on WAITQUEUE_DEBUG as that no
           longer exists.
      
       (9) PREEMPT_ACTIVE is too low a value.

      [PATCH] mm: split page table lock · 4c21e2f2
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with
      a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of
      a large anonymous area.
      
      This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to
      guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single
      page_table_lock.  (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page
      table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.)
      
      In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the
      page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in
      the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled.
      
      Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access.  Ideally,
      I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on
      multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs.
      So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig
      language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with
      NR_CPUS.  But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good
      testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps
      change that to 8 later.
      
      There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking
      one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.

      Linux-2.6.12-rc2 · 1da177e4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
