Some nice improvements were made to rwsem in commit: 424acaae rwsem: wake queued readers when writer blocks on active read lock but this change overlooked that ia64 had defined RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS as an unsigned value, while the new code required a signed value (as it is in every other architecture). This fix suggested by the original patch author: Michel Lespinasse. Signed-off-by: NTony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt). So it hasn't been so useful for drivers. We have only one user of the API in tree. Unlikely out-of-tree drivers use the API. Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look useful at all. It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't allocate coherent memory at all. It's better to export only APIs that are definitely necessary for drivers. Let's remove this API.

dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment. Architectures defines it as ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (formally ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN). So we can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations. Note that some architectures implement dma_get_cache_alignment wrongly. dma_get_cache_alignment() should return the minimum DMA alignment. So fully-coherent architectures should return 1. This patch also fixes this issue.

This patch is against the 2.6.34 source. Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com: These are the changes needed for the kernel to support LINEMODE in the server. There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC. When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of what state the user wants the terminal to be in. New ioctl: TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the current process group of the pty. There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit. When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state. Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for any remote terminal protocol, including ssh. The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989. For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found here: http://anonsvn.mit.edu/viewvc/krb5/trunk/src/appl/telnet/?pathrev=17741Signed-off-by: NHoward Chu <hyc@symas.com> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

I've been trying to avoid this for a long time ... but per-cpu space has slowly been growing. Tejun has some patches in linux-next that pre-reserve some space (PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE) for use before slab comes online ... and this pushes ia64 above the 64K current limit on static percpu space. I could probably squeeze it back under (we are only over by 512 bytes). But I don't think that I'll be able to squeeze it down enough to build a comfortable breathing space - and I don't want to keep nibbling off a dozen bytes here and there every time some generic code bumps us back over the limit. Next available supported page size is 256K ... so we have to quadruple the available space - a bigger jump than I'd like. But perhaps it will be enough to last a few more years before it needs to be increased again. Acked-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NTony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

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.

acpi=ht was important in 2003 -- before ACPI was universally deployed and enabled by default in the major Linux distributions. At that time, there were a fair number of people who or chose to, or needed to, run with acpi=off, yet also wanted access to Hyper-threading. Today we find that many invocations of "acpi=ht" are accidental, and thus is it possible that it is doing more harm than good. In 2.6.34, we warn on invocation of acpi=ht. In 2.6.35, we delete the boot option. Signed-off-by: NLen Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

While in theory user_enable_single_step/user_disable_single_step/ user_enable_blockstep could also be provided as an inline or macro there's no good reason to do so, and having the prototype in one places keeps code size and confusion down. Roland said: The original thought there was that user_enable_single_step() et al might well be only an instruction or three on a sane machine (as if we have any of those!), and since there is only one call site inlining would be beneficial. But I agree that there is no strong reason to care about inlining it. As to the arch changes, there is only one thought I'd add to the record. It was always my thinking that for an arch where PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does text-modifying breakpoint insertion, user_enable_single_step() should not be provided. That is, arch_has_single_step()=>true means that there is an arch facility with "pure" semantics that does not have any unexpected side effects. Inserting a breakpoint might do very unexpected strange things in multi-threaded situations. Aside from that, it is a peculiar side effect that user_{enable,disable}_single_step() should cause COW de-sharing of text pages and so forth. For PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, all these peculiarities are the status quo ante for that arch, so having arch_ptrace() itself do those is one thing. But for building other things in the future, it is nicer to have a uniform "pure" semantics that arch-independent code can expect. OTOH, all such arch issues are really up to the arch maintainer. As of today, there is nothing but ptrace using user_enable_single_step() et al so it's a distinction without a practical difference. If/when there are other facilities that use user_enable_single_step() and might care, the affected arch's can revisit the question when someone cares about the quality of the arch support for said new facility.

The following commit broke the ia64 sim_defconfig build: 3b2b84c0b81108a9a869a88bf2beeb5a95d81dd1 ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC This is because it added: +#include <acpi/processor.h> To arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.c. Unfortunately, the ia64_simdefconfig does not turn on CONFIG_ACPI, and we get build errors. The fix described in $subject seems to be the most sensible way to untangle the mess. The other issue is that acpi_get_sysname() is required for all configs, most of which define CONFIG_ACPI, but are not CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC. Turn it into an inline to cover the "non generic" ia64 configs; to prevent a duplicate definition build error, we need to wrap the definition in acpi.o inside an #ifdef. Finally, move the pm_idle and pm_power_off exports into process.c (which is always built), similar to other architectures, and allow the sim defconfig to link.

On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all copies. We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages uncacheable. This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available for modification via update_mmu_cache(). Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to update_mmu_cache(): On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables to construct a pointer to the pte again. Passing a pte_t * is much more elegant. Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the pte_t? Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC: Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want. I want that -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases, for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the _PAGE_EXEC. So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to suit.

__per_cpu_idtrs is statically allocated ... on CONFIG_NR_CPUS=4096 systems it hogs 16MB of memory. This is way too much for a quite probably unused facility (only KVM uses dynamic TR registers). Change to an array of pointers, and allocate entries as needed on a per cpu basis. Change the name too as the __per_cpu_ prefix is confusing (this isn't a classic <linux/percpu.h> type object).

pcibus_to_node can return -1 if we cannot determine which node a pci bus is on. If passed -1, cpumask_of_node will negatively index the lookup array and pull in random data: # cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/local_cpus 00000000,00000003,00000000,00000000 # cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/local_cpulist 64-65 Change cpumask_of_node to check for -1 and return cpu_all_mask in this case: # cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/local_cpus ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff # cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/local_cpulist 0-127 Signed-off-by: NAnton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NTony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

The only thing arch-specific about calling _PDC is what bits get set in the input obj_list buffer. There's no need for several levels of indirection to twiddle those bits. Additionally, since we're just messing around with a buffer, we can simplify the interface; no need to pass around the entire struct acpi_processor * just to get at the buffer.

arch dependent helper function that tells us if we should attempt to evaluate _PDC on this machine or not. The x86 implementation assumes that the CPUs in the machine must be homogeneous, and that you cannot mix CPUs of different vendors.
