      [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] 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.

      [PATCH] sched: disable preempt in idle tasks · 5bfb5d69
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
      
      Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
      How did it ever work before?
      
      Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
      
      We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
      need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
      
      After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
      into the idle thread and goes to sleep.  The CPU will continue executing
      previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
      
      By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
      fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

      [PATCH] fix missing includes · 4e57b681
      Tim Schmielau 提交于
      I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
      sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
      from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
      by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
      this disentangling (patch to follow later).
      However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.
      
      In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
      possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
      i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
      patch.  This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
      adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other.  So if any
      hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it.  My scripts
      will pick it up again in the next round.

      [PATCH] mm: init_mm without ptlock · 872fec16
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      First step in pushing down the page_table_lock.  init_mm.page_table_lock has
      been used throughout the architectures (usually for ioremap): not to serialize
      kernel address space allocation (that's usually vmlist_lock), but because
      pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel expect caller holds it.
      
      Reverse that: don't lock or unlock init_mm.page_table_lock in any of the
      architectures; instead rely on pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel to take
      and drop it when allocating a new one, to check lest a racing task already
      did.  Similarly no page_table_lock in vmalloc's map_vm_area.
      
      Some temporary ugliness in __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc: since they also handle
      user mms, which are converted only by a later patch, for now they have to lock
      differently according to whether or not it's init_mm.
      
      If sources get muddled, there's a danger that an arch source taking
      init_mm.page_table_lock will be mixed with common source also taking it (or
      neither take it).  So break the rules and make another change, which should
      break the build for such a mismatch: remove the redundant mm arg from
      pte_alloc_kernel (ppc64 scrapped its distinct ioremap_mm in 2.6.13).
      
      Exceptions: arm26 used pte_alloc_kernel on user mm, now pte_alloc_map; ia64
      used pte_alloc_map on init_mm, now pte_alloc_kernel; parisc had bad args to
      pmd_alloc and pte_alloc_kernel in unused USE_HPPA_IOREMAP code; ppc64
      map_io_page forgot to unlock on failure; ppc mmu_mapin_ram and ppc64 im_free
      took page_table_lock for no good reason.

      kbuild: rename prepare to archprepare to fix dependency chain · 5bb78269
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      When introducing the generic asm-offsets.h support the dependency
      chain for the prepare targets was changed. All build scripts expecting
      include/asm/asm-offsets.h to be made when using the prepare target would broke.
      With the limited number of prepare targets left in arch Makefiles
      the trivial solution was to introduce a new arch specific target: archprepare
      
      The dependency chain looks like this now:
      
      prepare
        |
        +--> prepare0
               |
               +--> archprepare
                      |
      		+--> scripts_basic
                      +--> prepare1
                             |
                             +---> prepare2
                                     |
                                     +--> prepare3
      
      So prepare 3 is processed before prepare2 etc.
      This guaantees that the asm symlink, version.h, scripts_basic
      are all updated before archprepare is processed.
      
      prepare0 which build the asm-offsets.h file will need the
      actions performed by archprepare.
      
      The head target is now named prepare, because users scripts will most
      likely use that target, but prepare-all has been kept for compatibility.
      Updated Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt.
