      x86: simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig all.config · 6840999b
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in
      all.config.
      
      For a fix the diffstat is nice:
       6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-)
      
      The patch reverts these commits:
       - 0f855aa6 ("kconfig: add helper to set
         config symbol from environment variable")
       - 2a113281 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to
         set 64BIT with all*config targets")
      
      Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so
      the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were
      not needed.
      
      With this patch we have following behaviour:
      
        # make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...]
        option \ host arch      | 32bit         | 64bit
        =====================================================
        ./.                     | 32bit         | 64bit
        ARCH=x86                | 32bit         | 32bit
        ARCH=i386               | 32bit         | 32bit
        ARCH=x86_64             | 64bit         | 64bit
      
      The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes
      precedence over the configuration.
      
      So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel
      no matter what the configuration says.  The configuration will
      be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the
      other way around.
      
      This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no
      suprises here.
      
      make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as
      the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit
      and 64-bit using menuconfig.

      dirty page balancing: Get rid of broken unmapped_ratio logic · 8c086340
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This code harks back to the days when we didn't count dirty mapped
      pages, which led us to try to balance the number of dirty unmapped pages
      by how much unmapped memory there was in the system.
      
      That makes no sense any more, since now the dirty counts include the
      mapped pages.  Not to mention that the math doesn't work with HIGHMEM
      machines anyway, and causes the unmapped_ratio to potentially turn
      negative (which we do catch thanks to clamping it at a minimum value,
      but I mention that as an indication of how broken the code is).
      
      The code also was written at a time when the default dirty ratio was
      much larger, and the unmapped_ratio logic effectively capped that large
      dirty ratio a bit.  Again, we've since lowered the dirty ratio rather
      aggressively, further lessening the point of that code.

      [MIPS] irq_cpu: use handle_percpu_irq handler to avoid dropping interrupts. · 30e748a5
      Ralf Baechle 提交于
      This matters to any sort of device that is wired to one of the CPU
      interrupt pins on an SMP system.  Typically the scenario is most easily
      triggered with the count/compare timer interrupt where the same interrupt
      number and thus irq_desc is used on each processor.
      
         CPU A			CPU B
      
         do_IRQ()
         generic_handle_irq()
         handle_level_irq()
         spin_lock(desc_lock)
         set IRQ_INPROGRESS
         spin_unlock(desc_lock)
      				do_IRQ()
      				generic_handle_irq()
      				handle_level_irq()
      				spin_lock(desc_lock)
      				IRQ_INPROGRESS set => bail out
         spin_lock(desc_lock)
         clear IRQ_INPROGRESS
         spin_unlock(desc_lock)
      
      In case of the cp0 compare interrupt this means the interrupt will be
      acked and not handled or re-armed on CPU b, so there won't be any timer
      interrupt until the count register wraps around.
      
      With kernels 2.6.20 ... 2.6.23 we usually were lucky that things were just
      working right on VSMP because the count registers are synchronized on
      bootup so it takes something that disables interrupts for a long time on
      one processor to trigger this one.
      
      For scenarios where an interrupt is multicasted or broadcasted over several
      CPUs the existing code was safe and the fix will break it.  There is no
      way to know in the interrupt controller code because it is abstracted from
      the platform code.  I think we do not have such a setup currently, so this
      should be ok.

      We have no guarantee by the generic time code that the timer is stopped
      when the ->next_event method is called.  Modifying the Timer Initial Count
      register while the timer is enabled has UNPREDICTABLE effect according to
      the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual.  So stop the timer before
      reprogramming.
      
      This is a paranoia fix; no ill effects have been observed previously.

      For the old minimum of a single tick a value of zero would be programmed
      into the init value register which in the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User
      Manual in the Timer Special Cases section is documented to have
      UNPREDICTABLE effect.
      
      Observable sympthoms of this bug were hangs of several seconds on the
      console during bootup and later if both dyntick and highres timer options
      were activated.
      
      In theory contiguous mode of the timers is also affected but in an act of
      hopeless lack of realism I'll assume nobody will ever configure a KERNEL
      for HZ > 500kHz but if so I leave that to evolution to sort out.
