      [PATCH] genirq: rename desc->handler to desc->chip · d1bef4ed
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
      various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
      functionality.
      
      While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
      generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
      smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
      the new 'irq chip' abstraction.
      
      The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
      driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
      straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
      (level/edge/etc.) type of details.
      
      This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
      architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
      The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
      converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.
      
      As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
      (master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.
      
      The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
      and more consolidation between architectures.
      
      We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
      layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.
      
      This patch:
      
      rename desc->handler to desc->chip.
      
      Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch.  But having
      both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
      large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
      truly is.
      
      I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
      desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
      frequently.
      
      So lets get over with this quickly.  The conversion was done automatically
      via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.
      
      This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
      remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
      without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

      [PATCH] node hotplug: register cpu: remove node struct · 76b67ed9
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime.  I'm now
      considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI.
      
      I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before
      memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add.
      
      In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add.  But register_cpu(),
      which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be
      onlined before register_cpu().  When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be
      there.
      
      This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu
      until node is onlined.
      
      This removes node arguments from register_cpu().
      
      Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument.  But the array of
      struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug
      patch).  We can get struct node in generic way.  So, this argument is not
      necessary now.
      
      This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined.  It
      is necessary for node-hot-add vs.  cpu-hot-add patch following this.
      
      Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard
      to its 'struct node *root' argument.  This patch removes it.
      
      Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed
      by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

      [PATCH] Don't pass boot parameters to argv_init[] · 9b41046c
      OGAWA Hirofumi 提交于
      The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and
      parse_args(,unknown_bootoption).
      
      And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup().
      
      	start_kernel()
      		-> parse_args()
      			-> unknown_bootoption()
      				-> obsolete_checksetup()
      
      If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in
      obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was
      handled.
      
      If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other
      ->setup_func().  If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0,
      a parameter is seted to argv_init[].
      
      Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app.
      If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.
      
      This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

      [PATCH] for_each_possible_cpu: sh · bc83db4f
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs.  We've had mistakes
      in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been
      iterating across only online or present CPUs.  This is inefficient and
      possibly buggy.
      
      We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the
      future.
      
      This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu.

      [PATCH] unify PFN_* macros · 22a9835c
      Dave Hansen 提交于
      Just about every architecture defines some macros to do operations on pfns.
       They're all virtually identical.  This patch consolidates all of them.
      
      One minor glitch is that at least i386 uses them in a very skeletal header
      file.  To keep away from #include dependency hell, I stuck the new
      definitions in a new, isolated header.
      
      Of all of the implementations, sh64 is the only one that varied by a bit.
      It used some masks to ensure that any sign-extension got ripped away before
      the arithmetic is done.  This has been posted to that sh64 maintainers and
      the development list.
      
      Compiles on x86, x86_64, ia64 and ppc64.

      [PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversions · 394e3902
      Andrew Morton 提交于
      When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch
      the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all.  The correct way of doing this
      is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu().
      
      This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS.  I found very
      few instances of this bug, if any.  But the patch converts lots of open-coded
      test to use the preferred helper macros.
