      kconfig CROSS_COMPILE option · 84336466
      Roland McGrath 提交于
      This adds CROSS_COMPILE as a kconfig string so you can store it in
      .config.  Then you can use plain "make" in the configured kernel build
      directory to do the right cross compilation without setting the
      command-line or environment variable every time.
      
      With this, you can set up different build directories for different kernel
      configurations, whether native or cross-builds, and then use the simple:
      
      	make -C /build/dir M=module-source-dir
      
      idiom to build modules for any given target kernel, indicating which one
      by nothing but the build directory chosen.
      
      I tried a version that defaults the string with env="CROSS_COMPILE" so
      that in a "make oldconfig" with CROSS_COMPILE in the environment you can
      just hit return to store the way you're building it.  But the kconfig
      prompt for strings doesn't give you any way to say you want an empty
      string instead of the default, so I punted that.

      kbuild: Fix linking error built-in.o no such file or directory · 4b024242
      Jiafu He 提交于
      This patch fixes the link error "built-in.o: no such file or directory".
      The problem happens if "dirx/Makefile" contains only "obj-m += diry/
      dirz/" and the empty "dirx/built-in.o" is missing. Adding $(subdir-m)
      into check for builtin-target fixes this error.

      mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swapping · a7016235
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's
      5f8dcc21 "page-allocator: split per-cpu
      list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE
      pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves.
      
      Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads
      of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is
      already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it.
      
      How did this bug show up?  As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild
      swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator.  Bisecting to that
      commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy.
      
      The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even
      less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones
      than x86, I think that may be a factor).  We guess that lumpy reclaim
      of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably
      this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim.
      
      But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and
      imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up
      the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.

      x86: get rid of the insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit · 05d43ed8
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      Now that the previous commit made it possible to do the personality
      setting at the point of no return, we do just that for ELF binaries.
      And suddenly all the reasons for that insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit go
      away, and we can just make SET_PERSONALITY() just do the obvious thing
      for a 32-bit compat process.
      
      Everything becomes much more straightforward this way.

      Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions · 221af7f8
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
      it is pretty badly misnamed.  It doesn't just flush the old executable
      environment, it also starts up the new one.
      
      Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
      personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
      of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
      personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.
      
      As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
      insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
      (TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
      personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
      the actual personality magic.
      
      This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
      'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
      (still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
      up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()).  All callers are changed
      to trivially comply with the new world order.
