      x86/kernel: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.h · 186f4360
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
      a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
      support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends.  That changed
      when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.
      
      This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
      in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig.  The advantage
      in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers;
      adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what
      headers we are effectively using.
      
      Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
      export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance
      for the presence of either and replace as needed.  Build testing
      revealed some implicit header usage that was fixed up accordingly.
      
      Note that some bool/obj-y instances remain since module.h is
      the header for some exception table entry stuff, and for things
      like __init_or_module (code that is tossed when MODULES=n).

      genirq: Remove irq argument from irq flow handlers · bd0b9ac4
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      Most interrupt flow handlers do not use the irq argument. Those few
      which use it can retrieve the irq number from the irq descriptor.
      
      Remove the argument.
      
      Search and replace was done with coccinelle and some extra helper
      scripts around it. Thanks to Julia for her help!

      x86: Replace __get_cpu_var uses · 89cbc767
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
      them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
      the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
      based on an offset.
      
      Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
      processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
      writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
      
      __get_cpu_var() is defined as :
      
      #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))
      
      __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
      and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
      other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
      
      this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
      percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
      variables.
      
      This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
      calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
      use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
      are used when code is generated.
      
      Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
      
      1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
      
          Converts to
      
      	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
      
      2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
      	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
      
          Converts to
      
      	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
      
      3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
      variable.
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
      
         Converts to
      
      	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
      
      4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
      	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
      
         Converts to
      
      	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
      
      5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
      	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
      
         Converts to
      
      	__this_cpu_write(y, x);
      
      6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
      
      	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
      	__get_cpu_var(y)++
      
         Converts to
      
      	__this_cpu_inc(y)

      irq: Consolidate do_softirq() arch overriden implementations · 7d65f4a6
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      All arch overriden implementations of do_softirq() share the following
      common code: disable irqs (to avoid races with the pending check),
      check if there are softirqs pending, then execute __do_softirq() on
      a specific stack.
      
      Consolidate the common parts such that archs only worry about the
      stack switch.

      cpumask: update irq_desc to use cpumask_var_t · 7f7ace0c
      Mike Travis 提交于
      Impact: reduce memory usage, use new cpumask API.
      
      Replace the affinity and pending_masks with cpumask_var_t's.  This adds
      to the significant size reduction done with the SPARSE_IRQS changes.
      
      The added functions (init_alloc_desc_masks & init_copy_desc_masks) are
      in the include file so they can be inlined (and optimized out for the
      !CONFIG_CPUMASKS_OFFSTACK case.)  [Naming chosen to be consistent with
      the other init*irq functions, as well as the backwards arg declaration
      of "from, to" instead of the more common "to, from" standard.]
      
      Includes a slight change to the declaration of struct irq_desc to embed
      the pending_mask within ifdef(CONFIG_SMP) to be consistent with other
      references, and some small changes to Xen.

      sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes · 0b8f1efa
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      Impact: new feature
      
      Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
      NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
      larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.
      
      To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
      irq_desc pointers.
      
      When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
      this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
      request_irq()).
      
      This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
      uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.
