      [CPUFREQ] Don't take semaphore in cpufreq_quick_get() · 9eb59573
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      I don't see any reason to take an expensive lock in cpufreq_quick_get()
      Reading policy->cur is a single atomic operation and after
      the lock is dropped again the state could change any time anyways.
      
      So don't take the lock in the first place.
      
      This also makes this function interrupt safe which is useful
      for some code of mine.

      sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner · 7b595756
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game.  After
      deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
      so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.  Note that
      often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
      accessing removed modules.
      
      This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner.  Note that with
      this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
      backing module from being unloaded.
      
      For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
      following message.

      Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplug · 8bb78442
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
      frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
      special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
      subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
      related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress.  This
      patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
      suspend and resume transitions.  It also changes all of the
      CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
      (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
      ones).

      [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h · cd354f1a
      Tim Schmielau 提交于
      After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
      recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
      There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
      anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
      macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
      course of cleaning it up.
      
      To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
      removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
      
      Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
      arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
      allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
      configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
      introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
      by unnecessarily included header files).

      WorkStruct: Pass the work_struct pointer instead of context data · 65f27f38
      David Howells 提交于
      Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
      The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
      
      For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
      pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
      structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
      
      To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
      work_struct.  This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
      
      Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
      scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
      work function.  This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
      that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
      else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated..  This is a
      problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
      
      However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
      function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
      with no problems.  But then the work function must itself release the
      work_struct by calling work_release().
      
      In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default.  Special
      initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

      Add "pure_initcall" for static variable initialization · b3438f82
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This is a quick hack to overcome the fact that SRCU currently does not
      allow static initializers, and we need to sometimes initialize those
      things before any other initializers (even "core" ones) can do so.
      
      Currently we don't allow this at all for modules, and the only user that
      needs is right now is cpufreq. As reported by Thomas Gleixner:
      
         "Commit b4dfdbb3 ("[PATCH] cpufreq:
          make the transition_notifier chain use SRCU breaks cpu frequency
          notification users, which register the callback > on core_init
          level."
