      kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT · 6a108a14
      David Rientjes 提交于
      The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
      is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
      only small devices.
      
      This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
      references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
      option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
      can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
      considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).
      
      Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
      expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
      are making should enable it.

      Remove unused function 'mf_getSrcHistory' (that will never be used
      ever according to Stephen Rothwell) and also remove most of (under 'if
      0') code from mf_src_proc_show() where the function was called.

      llseek: automatically add .llseek fop · 6038f373
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
      nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
      .llseek pointer.
      
      The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
      and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
      the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
      the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
      
      New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
      and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
      to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
      relies on calling seek on the device file.
      
      The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
      comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
      chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
      be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
      seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
      
      Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
      the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
      
      Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
      patch that does all this.

      powerpc: Fix bogus it_blocksize in VIO iommu code · 7aa241fd
      Anton Blanchard 提交于
      When looking at some issues with the virtual ethernet driver I noticed
      that TCE allocation was following a very strange pattern:
      
      address 00e9000 length 2048
      address 0409000 length 2048 <-----
      address 0429000 length 2048
      address 0449000 length 2048
      address 0469000 length 2048
      address 0489000 length 2048
      address 04a9000 length 2048
      address 04c9000 length 2048
      address 04e9000 length 2048
      address 4009000 length 2048 <-----
      address 4029000 length 2048
      
      Huge unexplained gaps in what should be an empty TCE table. It turns out
      it_blocksize, the amount we want to align the next allocation to, was
      c0000000fe903b20. Completely bogus.
      
      Initialise it to something reasonable in the VIO IOMMU code, and use kzalloc
      everywhere to protect against this when we next add a non compulsary
      field to iommu code and forget to initialise it.

      powerpc: Avoid bad relocations in iSeries code · e62cee42
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Subrata Modak reported that building a CONFIG_RELOCATABLE kernel with
      CONFIG_ISERIES enabled gives the following warnings:
      
      WARNING: 4 bad relocations
      c00000000007216e R_PPC64_ADDR16_HIGHEST  __ksymtab+0x00000000009dcec8
      c000000000072172 R_PPC64_ADDR16_HIGHER  __ksymtab+0x00000000009dcec8

      c00000000007217e R_PPC64_ADDR16_LO  __ksymtab+0x00000000009dcec8
      
      The reason is that decrementer_iSeries_masked is using
      LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE to get the address of a kernel symbol, which
      creates relocations that aren't handled by the kernel relocator code.
      
      Instead of reading the tb_ticks_per_jiffy variable, we can just set
      the decrementer to its maximum value (0x7fffffff) and that will work
      just as well.  In fact timer_interrupt sets the decrementer to that
      value initially anyway, and we are sure to get into timer_interrupt
      once interrupts are reenabled because we store 1 to the decrementer
      interrupt flag in the lppaca (LPPACADECRINT(r12) here).

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      powerpc: Dynamically allocate pacas · 1426d5a3
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      On 64-bit kernels we currently have a 512 byte struct paca_struct for
      each cpu (usually just called "the paca"). Currently they are statically
      allocated, which means a kernel built for a large number of cpus will
      waste a lot of space if it's booted on a machine with few cpus.
      
      We can avoid that by only allocating the number of pacas we need at
      boot. However this is complicated by the fact that we need to access
      the paca before we know how many cpus there are in the system.
      
      The solution is to dynamically allocate enough space for NR_CPUS pacas,
      but then later in boot when we know how many cpus we have, we free any
      unused pacas.

      powerpc: Remove use of a second scratch SPRG in STAB code · c5a8c0c9
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      The STAB code used on Power3 and RS/64 uses a second scratch SPRG to
      save a GPR in order to decide whether to go to do_stab_bolted_* or
      to handle a normal data access exception.
      
      This prevents our scheme of freeing SPRG3 which is user visible for
      user uses since we cannot use SPRG0 which, on RS/64, seems to be
      read-only for supervisor mode (like POWER4).
      
      This reworks the STAB exception entry to use the PACA as temporary
      storage instead.

      powerpc: Use names rather than numbers for SPRGs (v2) · ee43eb78
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      The kernel uses SPRG registers for various purposes, typically in
      low level assembly code as scratch registers or to hold per-cpu
      global infos such as the PACA or the current thread_info pointer.
      
      We want to be able to easily shuffle the usage of those registers
      as some implementations have specific constraints realted to some
      of them, for example, some have userspace readable aliases, etc..
      and the current choice isn't always the best.
      
      This patch should not change any code generation, and replaces the
      usage of SPRN_SPRGn everywhere in the kernel with a named replacement
      and adds documentation next to the definition of the names as to
      what those are used for on each processor family.
      
      The only parts that still use the original numbers are bits of KVM
      or suspend/resume code that just blindly needs to save/restore all
      the SPRGs.

      powerpc: Rename exception.h to exception-64s.h · 8aa34ab8
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      The file include/asm/exception.h contains definitions
      that are specific to exception handling on 64-bit server
      type processors.
      
      This renames the file to exception-64s.h to reflect that
      fact and avoid confusion.
