[PATCH] The scheduled removal of some OSS drivers · d56b9b9c

由 Adrian Bunk 提交于 10月 04, 2006

This patch contains the scheduled removal of OSS drivers that:
- have ALSA drivers for the same hardware without known regressions and
- whose Kconfig options have been removed in 2.6.17.

[PATCH] rcu: simplify/improve batch tuning · 20e9751b

由 Oleg Nesterov 提交于 10月 04, 2006

Kill a hard-to-calculate 'rsinterval' boot parameter and per-cpu
rcu_data.last_rs_qlen.  Instead, it adds adds a flag rcu_ctrlblk.signaled,
which records the fact that one of CPUs has sent a resched IPI since the
last rcu_start_batch().

Roughly speaking, we need two rcu_start_batch()s in order to move callbacks
from ->nxtlist to ->donelist.  This means that when ->qlen exceeds qhimark
and continues to grow, we should send a resched IPI, and then do it again
after we gone through a quiescent state.

On the other hand, if it was already sent, we don't need to do it again
when another CPU detects overflow of the queue.

[PATCH] RCU: add fake writers to rcutorture · b772e1dd

由 Josh Triplett 提交于 10月 04, 2006

rcutorture currently has one writer and an arbitrary number of readers.  To
better exercise some of the code paths in RCU implementations, add fake
writer threads which call the synchronize function for the RCU variant in a
loop, with a delay between calls to arrange for different numbers of
writers running in parallel.

[PATCH] srcu-3: RCU variant permitting read-side blocking · 621934ee

由 Paul E. McKenney 提交于 10月 04, 2006

Updated patch adding a variant of RCU that permits sleeping in read-side
critical sections.  SRCU is as follows:

o	Each use of SRCU creates its own srcu_struct, and each
	srcu_struct has its own set of grace periods.  This is
	critical, as it prevents one subsystem with a blocking
	reader from holding up SRCU grace periods for other
	subsystems.

o	The SRCU primitives (srcu_read_lock(), srcu_read_unlock(),
	and synchronize_srcu()) all take a pointer to a srcu_struct.

o	The SRCU primitives must be called from process context.

o	srcu_read_lock() returns an int that must be passed to
	the matching srcu_read_unlock().  Realtime RCU avoids the
	need for this by storing the state in the task struct,
	but SRCU needs to allow a given code path to pass through
	multiple SRCU domains -- storing state in the task struct
	would therefore require either arbitrary space in the
	task struct or arbitrary limits on SRCU nesting.  So I
	kicked the state-storage problem up to the caller.

	Of course, it is not permitted to call synchronize_srcu()
	while in an SRCU read-side critical section.

o	There is no call_srcu().  It would not be hard to implement
	one, but it seems like too easy a way to OOM the system.
	(Hey, we have enough trouble with call_rcu(), which does
	-not- permit readers to sleep!!!)  So, if you want it,
	please tell me why...

[PATCH] ecryptfs: fs/Makefile and fs/Kconfig · 237fead6

由 Michael Halcrow 提交于 10月 04, 2006

eCryptfs is a stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux.  It is derived from
Erez Zadok's Cryptfs, implemented through the FiST framework for generating
stacked filesystems.  eCryptfs extends Cryptfs to provide advanced key
management and policy features.  eCryptfs stores cryptographic metadata in the
header of each file written, so that encrypted files can be copied between
hosts; the file will be decryptable with the proper key, and there is no need
to keep track of any additional information aside from what is already in the
encrypted file itself.
