We only need to build relocations when we are building a 32-bit relocatable kernel. Rather than unnecessarily complicating the Makefiles, make an explicit Kbuild symbol for this. [ Impact: permits future cleanup ] Signed-off-by: NH. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Allow the compression commands in Kbuild (i.e. gzip, bzip2, lzma) to take multiple input files and emit the concatenated compressed output. This avoids an intermediate step when a kernel image is built from multiple components, such as the relocatable x86-32 kernel. Sam Ravnborg integrated the bin_size script into the Makefile.

Aligning the .bss section makes it trivial to use large operation sizes for moving the initialized sections and clearing the .bss. The alignment chosen (L1 cache) is somewhat arbitrary, but should be large enough to avoid all known performance traps and small enough to not cause troubles.

32 bit x86 had a dedicated .text.head output section, whereas 64 bit had it all in a single output section. In the unified version the dedicated .text.head output section was kept to have full control over the head code. 32 bit: - Moved definition of _stext to the linker script. The definition is located _after_ .text.page_aligned as this is what 32 bit did before. The ALIGN(8) was introduced so we hit the exact same address (on the tested config) before and after the move. I assume that it is a bug that _stext did not cover the .text.page_aligned section - if this is true it can be fixed in a follow-up patch (and the ugly ALIGN() can be dropped).

Look at the: diff -u arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds output and realize that they're basially exactly the same except for trivial naming differences, and the fact that the 64-bit version has a "pgtable" thing. So unify them. There's some trivial cleanup there (make the output format a Kconfig thing rather than doing #ifdef's for it, and unify both 32-bit and 64-bit BSS end to "_ebss", where 32-bit used to use the traditional "_end"), but other than that it's really very mindless and straigt conversion. For example, I think we should aim to remove "startup_32" vs "startup_64", and just call it "startup", and get rid of one more difference. I didn't do that. Also, notice the comment in the unified vmlinux.lds.S talks about "head_64" and "startup_32" which is an odd and incorrect mix, but that was actually what the old 64-bit only lds file had, so the confusion isn't new, and now that mixing is arguably more accurate thanks to the vmlinux.lds.S file being shared between the two cases ;) [ Impact: cleanup, unification ] Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: NSam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like 'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work. My bad. 'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"): (a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()' and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does. (b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the call on that CPU. Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel. So let's just work around the silly semantic bugs in that function.

If we have processes that are working in close proximity to each other on disk, we don't want to idle wait. Instead allow the close process to issue a request, getting better aggregate bandwidth. The anticipatory scheduler has similar checks, noop and deadline do not need it since they don't care about process <-> io mappings. The code for CFQ is a little more involved though, since we split request queues into per-process contexts. This fixes a performance problem with eg dump(8), since it uses several processes in some silly attempt to speed IO up. Even if dump(8) isn't really a valid case (it should be fixed by using CLONE_IO), there are other cases where we see close processes and where idling ends up hurting performance.
