      sparc32: enable different preemptions models · b2a1fa30
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      While chasing following warning from kconfig I noticed that the
      kconfig preemption model symbols were all dependent on sparc64.
      
      warning: (PREEMPT && DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP) selects PREEMPT_COUNT which has unmet direct dependencies (SPARC64)
      
      >From arch/sparc/Kconfig:
      
              if SPARC64
              source "kernel/Kconfig.preempt"
              endif
      
      But looking a bit closer I see nothing obvious why
      sparc32 should not support the various preemption models.
      Drop the "if SPARC64" conditional to enable selection of
      preemption model on sparc32 too.
      
      Build-tested - but not run-time tested all three models.

      sparc64: Fix MSIQ HV call ordering in pci_sun4v_msiq_build_irq(). · 7cc85833
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This silently was working for many years and stopped working on
      Niagara-T3 machines.
      
      We need to set the MSIQ to VALID before we can set it's state to IDLE.
      
      On Niagara-T3, setting the state to IDLE first was causing HV_EINVAL
      errors.  The hypervisor documentation says, rather ambiguously, that
      the MSIQ must be "initialized" before one can set the state.
      
      I previously understood this to mean merely that a successful setconf()
      operation has been performed on the MSIQ, which we have done at this
      point.  But it seems to also mean that it has been set VALID too.

      cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class to a regular subsystem · 8a25a2fd
      Kay Sievers 提交于
      This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem
      and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are
      implemented as subsystem interfaces now.
      
      After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
      sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.
      
      Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure
      from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

      nohz: Remove tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() / tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu() · 1268fbc7

      Those two APIs were provided to optimize the calls of
      tick_nohz_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_enter() into a single
      irq disabled section. This way no interrupt happening in-between would
      needlessly process any RCU job.
      
      Now we are talking about an optimization for which benefits
      have yet to be measured. Let's start simple and completely decouple
      idle rcu and dyntick idle logics to simplify.

      nohz: Allow rcu extended quiescent state handling seperately from tick stop · 2bbb6817
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless
      mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always
      true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after
      the tick is stopped.
      
      To prepare for fixing this, add two new APIs:
      tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() and tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu().
      
      If no use of RCU is made in the idle loop between
      tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() calls, the arch
      must instead call the new *_norcu() version such that the arch doesn't
      need to call rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit().
      
      Otherwise the arch must call tick_nohz_enter_idle() and
      tick_nohz_exit_idle() and also call explicitly:
      
      - rcu_idle_enter() after its last use of RCU before the CPU is put
      to sleep.
      - rcu_idle_exit() before the first use of RCU after the CPU is woken
      up.

      nohz: Separate out irq exit and idle loop dyntick logic · 280f0677
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() function, which tries to delay
      the next timer tick as long as possible, can be called from two
      places:
      
      - From the idle loop to start the dytick idle mode
      - From interrupt exit if we have interrupted the dyntick
      idle mode, so that we reprogram the next tick event in
      case the irq changed some internal state that requires this
      action.
      
      There are only few minor differences between both that
      are handled by that function, driven by the ts->inidle
      cpu variable and the inidle parameter. The whole guarantees
      that we only update the dyntick mode on irq exit if we actually
      interrupted the dyntick idle mode, and that we enter in RCU extended
      quiescent state from idle loop entry only.
      
      Split this function into:
      
      - tick_nohz_idle_enter(), which sets ts->inidle to 1, enters
      dynticks idle mode unconditionally if it can, and enters into RCU
      extended quiescent state.
      
      - tick_nohz_irq_exit() which only updates the dynticks idle mode
      when ts->inidle is set (ie: if tick_nohz_idle_enter() has been called).
      
      To maintain symmetry, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick() has been renamed
      into tick_nohz_idle_exit().
      
      This simplifies the code and micro-optimize the irq exit path (no need
      for local_irq_save there). This also prepares for the split between
      dynticks and rcu extended quiescent state logics. We'll need this split to
      further fix illegal uses of RCU in extended quiescent states in the idle
      loop.

      some functions which now would fit memblock.c better than page_alloc.c
      and dependency on HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP instead of HAVE_MEMBLOCK
      doesn't make much sense on some of them.  Further cleanups for

      doesn't have any arch dependent part and doesn't need arch specific

      * In arm and unicore32, asm/memblock.h contains arch specific stuff.
        Include it directly from its users.  It might be a good idea to

      sparc: Stash orig_i0 into %g6 instead of %g2 · e88d2468
      David S. Miller 提交于
      As per the comments added by this commit, %g2 turns out to not be a
      usable place to save away orig_i0 for syscall restart handling.
      
      In fact all of %g2, %g3, %g4, and %g5 are assumed to be saved across
      a system call by various bits of code in glibc.
      
      %g1 can't be used because that holds the syscall number, which would
      need to be saved and restored for syscall restart handling too, and
      that would only compound our problems :-)
      
      This leaves us with %g6 and %g7 which are for "system use".  %g7 is
      used as the "thread register" by glibc, but %g6 is used as a compiler
      and assembler temporary scratch register.  And in no instance is %g6
      used to hold a value across a system call.
      
      Therefore %g6 is safe for storing away orig_i0, at least for now.

      Although we provide a proper way for a debugger to control whether
      syscall restart occurs, we run into problems because orig_i0 is not
      saved and restored properly.
      
      Luckily we can solve this problem without having to make debuggers
      aware of the issue.  Across system calls, several registers are
      considered volatile and can be safely clobbered.
      
      Therefore we use the pt_regs save area of one of those registers, %g2,
      as a place to save and restore orig_i0.
      
      Debuggers transparently will do the right thing because they save and
      restore this register already.

      net: add wireless TX status socket option · 6e3e939f
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The 802.1X EAPOL handshake hostapd does requires
      knowing whether the frame was ack'ed by the peer.
      Currently, we fudge this pretty badly by not even
      transmitting the frame as a normal data frame but
      injecting it with radiotap and getting the status
      out of radiotap monitor as well. This is rather
      complex, confuses users (mon.wlan0 presence) and
      doesn't work with all hardware.
      
      To get rid of that hack, introduce a real wifi TX
      status option for data frame transmissions.
      
      This works similar to the existing TX timestamping
      in that it reflects the SKB back to the socket's
      error queue with a SCM_WIFI_STATUS cmsg that has
      an int indicating ACK status (0/1).
      
      Since it is possible that at some point we will
      want to have TX timestamping and wifi status in a
      single errqueue SKB (there's little point in not
      doing that), redefine SO_EE_ORIGIN_TIMESTAMPING
      to SO_EE_ORIGIN_TXSTATUS which can collect more
      than just the timestamp; keep the old constant
      as an alias of course. Currently the internal APIs
      don't make that possible, but it wouldn't be hard
      to split them up in a way that makes it possible.
      
      Thanks to Neil Horman for helping me figure out
      the functions that add the control messages.
