      FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU() · 9b8de747
      David Howells 提交于
      In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
      does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU().  This means that
      architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
      register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
      where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.
      
      On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
      the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section.  The linker throws
      up the following errors:
      
      kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
      kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
      kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
      
      To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
      as does DEFINE_PER_CPU().  However, this is made slightly more complex by
      virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
      be matched by variants on DECLARE.

      PCI/alpha: pci sysfs resources · 10a0ef39
      Ivan Kokshaysky 提交于
      This closes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10893
      which is a showstopper for X development on alpha.
      
      The generic HAVE_PCI_MMAP code (drivers/pci-sysfs.c) is not
      very useful since we have to deal with three different types
      of MMIO address spaces: sparse and dense mappings for old
      ev4/ev5 machines and "normal" 1:1 MMIO space (bwx) for ev56 and
      later.
      Also "write combine" mappings are meaningless on alpha - roughly
      speaking, alpha does write combining, IO reordering and other
      optimizations by default, unless user splits IO accesses
      with memory barriers.
      
      I think the cleanest way to deal with resource files on alpha
      is to convert the default no-op pci_create_resource_files() and
      pci_remove_resource_files() for !HAVE_PCI_MMAP case into __weak
      functions and override them with alpha specific ones.
      
      Another alpha hook is needed for "legacy_" resource files
      to handle sparse addressing (pci_adjust_legacy_attr).
      
      With the "standard" resourceN files on ev56/ev6 libpciaccess
      works "out of the box". Handling of resourceN_sparse/resourceN_dense
      files on older machines obviously requires some userland work.
      
      Sparse/dense stuff has been tested on sx164 (pca56/pyxis, normally
      uses bwx IO) with the kernel hacked into "cia compatible" mode.

      net: new user space API for time stamping of incoming and outgoing packets · cb9eff09
      Patrick Ohly 提交于
      User space can request hardware and/or software time stamping.
      Reporting of the result(s) via a new control message is enabled
      separately for each field in the message because some of the
      fields may require additional computation and thus cause overhead.
      User space can tell the different kinds of time stamps apart
      and choose what suits its needs.
      
      When a TX timestamp operation is requested, the TX skb will be cloned
      and the clone will be time stamped (in hardware or software) and added
      to the socket error queue of the skb, if the skb has a socket
      associated with it.
      
      The actual TX timestamp will reach userspace as a RX timestamp on the
      cloned packet. If timestamping is requested and no timestamping is
      done in the device driver (potentially this may use hardware
      timestamping), it will be done in software after the device's
      start_hard_xmit routine.

      preempt-count: force hardirq-count to max of 10 · 5a5fb7db
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      To add a bit in the preempt_count to be set when in NMI context, we
      found that some archs did not have enough bits to spare. This is
      due to the hardirq_count being a mask that can hold NR_IRQS.
      
      Some archs allow for over 16000 IRQs, and that would require a mask
      of 14 bits. The sofitrq mask is 8 bits and the preempt disable mask
      is also 8 bits.  The PREEMP_ACTIVE bit is bit 30, and bit 31 would
      make the preempt_count (which is type int) a negative number.
      A negative preempt_count is a sign of failure.
      
      Add them up 14+8+8+1+1 you get 32 bits. No room for the NMI bit.
      
      But the hardirq_count is to track the number of nested IRQs, not
      the number of total IRQs.  This originally took the paranoid approach
      of setting the max nesting to NR_IRQS. But when we have archs with
      over 1000 IRQs, it is not practical to think they will ever all
      nest on a single CPU. Not to mention that this would most definitely
      cause a stack overflow.
      
      This patch sets a max of 10 bits to be used for IRQ nesting.
      I did a 'git grep HARDIRQ' to examine all users of HARDIRQ_BITS and
      HARDIRQ_MASK, and found that making it a max of 10 would not hurt
      anyone. I did find that the m68k expected it to be 8 bits, so
      I allow for the archs to set the number to be less than 10.
      
      I removed the setting of HARDIRQ_BITS from the archs that set it
      to more than 10. This includes ALPHA, ia64 and avr32.
      
      This will always allow room for the NMI bit, and if we need to allow
      for NMI nesting, we have 4 bits to play with.

      alpha: fix RTC on marvel · 5f7dc5d7
      Ivan Kokshaysky 提交于
      Unlike other alphas, marvel doesn't have real PC-style CMOS clock hardware
      - RTC accesses are emulated via PAL calls.  Unfortunately, for unknown
      reason these calls work only on CPU #0.  So current implementation for
      arbitrary CPU makes CMOS_READ/WRITE to be executed on CPU #0 via IPI.
      However, for obvious reason this doesn't work with standard
      get/set_rtc_time() functions, where a bunch of CMOS accesses is done with
      disabled interrupts.
      
      Solved by making the IPI calls for entire get/set_rtc_time() functions,
      not for individual CMOS accesses.  Which is also a lot more effective
      performance-wise.
      
      The patch is largely based on the code from Jay Estabrook.
      My changes:
      - tweak asm-generic/rtc.h by adding a couple of #defines to
        avoid a massive code duplication in arch/alpha/include/asm/rtc.h;
      - sys_marvel.c: fix get/set_rtc_time() return values (Jay's FIXMEs).
      
      NOTE: this fixes *only* LIB_RTC drivers.  Legacy (CONFIG_RTC) driver
      wont't work on marvel.  Actually I think that we should just disable
      CONFIG_RTC on alpha (maybe in 2.6.30?), like most other arches - AFAIK,
      all modern distributions use LIB_RTC anyway.

      cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map · 98a79d6a
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      Impact: cleanup
      
      Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
      location.
      
      Twists:
      1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
         CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.
      
      2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
         Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.
      
      3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
         so I just manipulate them both in sync.
      
      4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
         declarations.

      container freezer: add TIF_FREEZE flag to all architectures · 83224b08
      Matt Helsley 提交于
      This patch series introduces a cgroup subsystem that utilizes the swsusp
      freezer to freeze a group of tasks.  It's immediately useful for batch job
      management scripts.  It should also be useful in the future for
      implementing container checkpoint/restart.
      
      The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a cgroup file
      named freezer.state.  Reading freezer.state will return the current state
      of the cgroup.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
      in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
      the cgroup.
      
      * Examples of usage :
      
         # mkdir /containers/freezer
         # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
         # mkdir /containers/0
         # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks
      
      to get status of the freezer subsystem :
      
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         RUNNING
      
      to freeze all tasks in the container :
      
         # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         FREEZING
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         FROZEN
      
      to unfreeze all tasks in the container :
      
         # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
         # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
         RUNNING
      
      This patch:
      
      The first step in making the refrigerator() available to all

      The purpose of such a change is to be able to use the refrigerator() in a
      new control group subsystem which will implement a control group freezer.
