      [PATCH] drivers: wait for threaded probes between initcall levels · 735a7ffb
      Andrew Morton 提交于
      The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg,
      core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next
      level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling
      core_initcall are still executing.  This breaks the guarantees which the
      layered initcalls previously gave us.
      
      IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between
      different levels.
      
      Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at
      one level to complete before we start processing the next level.

      [PATCH] x86 microcode: using request_firmware to pull microcode · a30a6a2c
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      Using request_firmware to pull ucode from userspace, so we don't need the
      application 'microcode_ctl' to assist.  We name each ucode file according
      to CPU's info as intel-ucode/family-model-stepping.  In this way we could
      split ucode file as small one.  This has a lot of advantages such as
      selectively update and validate microcode for specific models, better
      manage microcode file, easily write tools for administerators and so on.
      with the changes, we should put all intel-ucode/xx-xx-xx microcode files
      into the firmware dir (I had a tool to split previous big data file into
      small one and later we will release new style data file).  The init script
      should be changed to just loading the driver without unloading
