      tty: Added a CONFIG_TTY option to allow removal of TTY · 4f73bc4d
      Joe Millenbach 提交于
      The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
      saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
      bloat-o-meter output is below.
      
      The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
      TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
      layer.  Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
      symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
      "depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.
      
      bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by
      removing TTY.  The list is filtered to not show removed entries with awk
      '$3 != "-"' as the list was very long.

      tty/powerpc: introduce the ePAPR embedded hypervisor byte channel driver · dcd83aaf
      Timur Tabi 提交于
      The ePAPR embedded hypervisor specification provides an API for "byte
      channels", which are serial-like virtual devices for sending and receiving
      streams of bytes.  This driver provides Linux kernel support for byte
      channels via three distinct interfaces:
      
      1) An early-console (udbg) driver.  This provides early console output
      through a byte channel.  The byte channel handle must be specified in a
      Kconfig option.
      
      2) A normal console driver.  Output is sent to the byte channel designated
      for stdout in the device tree.  The console driver is for handling kernel
      printk calls.
      
      3) A tty driver, which is used to handle user-space input and output.  The
      byte channel used for the console is designated as the default tty.

      Alan Jenkins 提交于
      The next commit will require the use of MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX in
      .tmp_exports-asm.S.  Currently it is mixed in with C structure
      definitions in "asm/module.h".  Move the definition of this arch option
      into Kconfig, so it can be easily accessed by any code.
      
      This also lets modpost.c use the same definition.  Previously modpost
      relied on a hardcoded list of architectures in mk_elfconfig.c.
      
      A build test for blackfin, one of the two MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX archs,
      showed the generated code was unchanged.  vmlinux was identical save
      for build ids, and an apparently randomized suffix on a single "__key"
      symbol in the kallsyms data).

      container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystem · dc52ddc0
      Matt Helsley 提交于
      This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
      framework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
      a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.
      
      The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
      freezer.state.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
      in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
      the cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.
      
      * Examples of usage :
      
         # mkdir /containers/freezer
         # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
         # mkdir /containers/0
         # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks
      
      to get status of the freezer subsystem :
      
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         RUNNING
      
      to freeze all tasks in the container :
      
         # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         FREEZING
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         FROZEN
      
      to unfreeze all tasks in the container :
      
         # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         RUNNING
      
      This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
      task in a simple scenario.
      
      It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we
      return EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
      something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
      time.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
      by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read.  The state will remain
      "FREEZING" until one of these things happens:
      
      	1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
      		the freezer.state file
      	2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
      		the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
      		and returns EIO)
      	3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
      		state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

      avoid overflows in kernel/time.c · bdc80787
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      When the conversion factor between jiffies and milli- or microseconds is
      not a single multiply or divide, as for the case of HZ == 300, we currently
      do a multiply followed by a divide.  The intervening result, however, is
      subject to overflows, especially since the fraction is not simplified (for
      HZ == 300, we multiply by 300 and divide by 1000).
      
      This is exposed to the user when passing a large timeout to poll(), for
      example.
      
      This patch replaces the multiply-divide with a reciprocal multiplication on
      32-bit platforms.  When the input is an unsigned long, there is no portable
      way to do this on 64-bit platforms there is no portable way to do this
      since it requires a 128-bit intermediate result (which gcc does support on
      64-bit platforms but may generate libgcc calls, e.g.  on 64-bit s390), but
      since the output is a 32-bit integer in the cases affected, just simplify
      the multiply-divide (*3/10 instead of *300/1000).
      
      The reciprocal multiply used can have off-by-one errors in the upper half
      of the valid output range.  This could be avoided at the expense of having
      to deal with a potential 65-bit intermediate result.  Since the intent is
      to avoid overflow problems and most of the other time conversions are only
      semiexact, the off-by-one errors were considered an acceptable tradeoff.
      
      At Ralf Baechle's suggestion, this version uses a Perl script to compute
      the necessary constants.  We already have dependencies on Perl for kernel
      compiles.  This does, however, require the Perl module Math::BigInt, which
      is included in the standard Perl distribution starting with version 5.8.0.
      In order to support older versions of Perl, include a table of canned
      constants in the script itself, and structure the script so that
      Math::BigInt isn't required if pulling values from said table.
      
      Running the script requires that the HZ value is available from the
      Makefile.  Thus, this patch also adds the Kconfig variable CONFIG_HZ to the
      architectures which didn't already have it (alpha, cris, frv, h8300, m32r,
      m68k, m68knommu, sparc, v850, and xtensa.) It does *not* touch the sh or
      sh64 architectures, since Paul Mundt has dealt with those separately in the
      sh tree.

      [PATCH] optional ZONE_DMA: introduce CONFIG_ZONE_DMA · 66701b14
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      This patch simply defines CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for all arches.  We later do special
      things with CONFIG_ZONE_DMA after the VM and an arch are prepared to work
      without ZONE_DMA.
      
      CONFIG_ZONE_DMA can be defined in two ways depending on how an architecture
      handles ISA DMA.
      
      First if CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA is set by the arch then we know that the arch
      needs ZONE_DMA because ISA DMA devices are supported.  We can catch this in
      mm/Kconfig and do not need to modify arch code.
      
      Second, arches may use ZONE_DMA in an unknown way.  We set CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for
      all arches that do not set CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA in order to insure backwards
      compatibility.  The arches may later undefine ZONE_DMA if their arch code has
      been verified to not depend on ZONE_DMA.

      [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel · f0d1b0b3
      David Howells 提交于
      This facility provides three entry points:
      
      	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
      	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
      	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64
      
      These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:
      
      	int do_something(long q)
      	{
      		...;
      		y = ilog2(x)
      		...;
      	}
      
      Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:
      
      	unsigned n = ilog2(27);
      
      When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
      initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
      something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
      unsigned.
      
      When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
      them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
      x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.
