      dma-mapping: use unsigned long for dma_attrs · 00085f1e
      Krzysztof Kozlowski 提交于
      The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA
      attributes passed by pointer.  Thus the pointer can point to const data.
      However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield.  Instead unsigned
      long will do fine:
      
      1. This is just simpler.  Both in terms of reading the code and setting
         attributes.  Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
         and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.
      
      2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
         attributes are passed by value.

      efi: Convert efi_call_virt() to efi_call_virt_pointer() · 80e75596
      Alex Thorlton 提交于
      This commit makes a few slight modifications to the efi_call_virt() macro
      to get it to work with function pointers that are stored in locations
      other than efi.systab->runtime, and renames the macro to
      efi_call_virt_pointer().  The majority of the changes here are to pull
      these macros up into header files so that they can be accessed from
      outside of drivers/firmware/efi/runtime-wrappers.c.
      
      The most significant change not directly related to the code move is to
      add an extra "p" argument into the appropriate efi_call macros, and use
      that new argument in place of the, formerly hard-coded,
      efi.systab->runtime pointer.
      
      The last piece of the puzzle was to add an efi_call_virt() macro back into
      drivers/firmware/efi/runtime-wrappers.c to wrap around the new
      efi_call_virt_pointer() macro - this was mainly to keep the code from
      looking too cluttered by adding a bunch of extra references to
      efi.systab->runtime everywhere.
      
      Note that I also broke up the code in the efi_call_virt_pointer() macro a
      bit in the process of moving it.

      tree wide: get rid of __GFP_REPEAT for order-0 allocations part I · 32d6bd90
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1].  I have
      basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
      rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree.  I am sending
      it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
      considerably when we want to target rc2.  I plan to send the next step
      and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
      release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
      hopefully.
      
      Motivation:
      
      While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
      __GFP_REPEAT in the tree.  It seems that a majority of the usage is and
      always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
      high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
      orders very often.  It seems that a big pile of them is just a
      copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
      
      I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
      making the semantic more unclear.  Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
      documented as
      
      * __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
      
      * _might_ fail.  This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
        while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic.  So one could
        reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
        for ever.  This is not implemented right now though.
      
      I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
      for it.
      
        $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
        111
        $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
        36
      
      So we are down to the third after this patch series.  The remaining
      places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
      requests.  This still needs some double checking which I will do later
      after all the simple ones are sorted out.
      
      I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
      but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
      do not have cross compiler for them.  Patches should be quite trivial to
      review for stupid compile mistakes though.  The tricky parts are usually
      hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
      arch maintainers.
      
      [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
      
      This patch (of 19):
      
      __GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
      around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.  Yet we
      have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
      allocations.  This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
      explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
      semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
      
      Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places.  This would allow to
      identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
      a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.
