      percpu: align percpu readmostly subsection to cacheline · 19df0c2f
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently percpu readmostly subsection may share cachelines with other
      percpu subsections which may result in unnecessary cacheline bounce
      and performance degradation.
      
      This patch adds @cacheline parameter to PERCPU() and PERCPU_VADDR()
      linker macros, makes each arch linker scripts specify its cacheline
      size and use it to align percpu subsections.
      
      This is based on Shaohua's x86 only patch.

      ioctl: Use asm-generic/ioctls.h on cris (enables termiox) · 8bc3372d
      Jeff Mahoney 提交于
      This patch converts cris to use asm-generic/ioctls.h instead of its
      own version.
      
      The differences between the arch-specific version and the generic
      version are as follows:
      
      - CRIS defines two ioctls: TIOCSERSETRS485 and TIOCSERWRRS485,
        kept in arch-specific portion
      - CRIS defines a different value for TIOCSRS485, kept via ifndef in generic
      - The generic version adds support for termiox

      llseek: automatically add .llseek fop · 6038f373
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
      nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
      .llseek pointer.
      
      The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
      and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
      the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
      the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
      
      New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
      and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
      to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
      relies on calling seek on the device file.
      
      The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
      comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
      chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
      be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
      seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
      
      Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
      the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
      
      Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
      patch that does all this.

      Fix IRQ flag handling naming · df9ee292
      David Howells 提交于
      Fix the IRQ flag handling naming.  In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
      it maps:
      
      	local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
      	local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
      	local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
      	...
      
      and under the other configuration, it maps:
      
      	raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
      	raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
      	raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
      	...
      
      This is quite confusing.  There should be one set of names expected of the
      arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
      by users of this facility.
      
      Change this to have the arch provide:
      
      	flags = arch_local_save_flags()
      	flags = arch_local_irq_save()
      	arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
      	arch_local_irq_disable()
      	arch_local_irq_enable()
      	arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
      	arch_irqs_disabled()
      	arch_safe_halt()
      
      Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:
      
      	raw_local_save_flags(flags)
      	raw_local_irq_save(flags)
      	raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
      	raw_local_irq_disable()
      	raw_local_irq_enable()
      	raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
      	raw_irqs_disabled()
      	raw_safe_halt()
      
      with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:
      
      	local_save_flags(flags)
      	local_irq_save(flags)
      	local_irq_restore(flags)
      	local_irq_disable()
      	local_irq_enable()
      	irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
      	irqs_disabled()
      	safe_halt()
      
      with tracing included if enabled.
      
      The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
      having to be macros.

      cris: autoconvert trivial BKL users · 0890b588
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      All uses of the big kernel lock in the cris architecture
      are for ioctl and open functions of character device drivers,
      which can be trivially converted to a per-driver mutex.
      
      Most of these are probably unnecessary, so it may make sense
      to audit them and eventually remove the extra mutex introduced
      by this patch.

      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer · d7627467
      David Howells 提交于
      Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
      correctly on ARM:
      
      arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
      
      This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
      the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
      because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
      copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
      pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
      
      do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
      or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
      const should be fine.
      
      Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.
      
      This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.
