      flag parameters: pipe · ed8cae8b
      Ulrich Drepper 提交于
      This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
      takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value.  This patch implements
      the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag.  I did not add support for the new
      syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation.  I
      think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
      implementation but that's up to them.
      
      The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags.  I did that instead of changing
      all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
      I would probably screw up changing the assembly code.  To avoid breaking code
      do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags.  Once all callers are
      changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.
      
      The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
      x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

      [IA64] fix personality(PER_LINUX32) performance issue · 839052d2
      Huang, Xiaolan 提交于
      The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall
      personality(PER_LINUX32).
      
      On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance
      because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried
      to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default
      execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very
      expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function
      lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c).
      
      To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in
      initialization time for IA-64 architecture.

      [IA64] VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING (accurate cpu time accounting) · b64f34cd
      Hidetoshi Seto 提交于
      This patch implements VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING for ia64,
      which enable us to use more accurate cpu time accounting.
      
      The VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is an item of kernel config, which s390
      and powerpc arch have.  By turning this config on, these archs
      change the mechanism of cpu time accounting from tick-sampling
      based one to state-transition based one.
      
      The state-transition based accounting is done by checking time
      (cycle counter in processor) at every state-transition point,
      such as entrance/exit of kernel, interrupt, softirq etc.
      The difference between point to point is the actual time consumed
      during in the state. There is no doubt about that this value is
      more accurate than that of tick-sampling based accounting.

      [PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbers · afefdbb2
      David Howells 提交于
      These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when
      communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system.  They are required
      because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS
      for example.  The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace
      automatically where the arch supports it.
      
      Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode
      number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and
      failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and
      so overlaps occur.
      
      This patch:
      
      Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit
      inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace.
      
      The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where
      available and where possible.  If it is not possible to represent the inode
      number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then
      error EOVERFLOW will be issued.
      
      Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode
      number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a
      directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented.
      
      Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit
      system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that
      there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to.
      
      Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a
      32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the
      same reasons.
      
      It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc
      uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions
      exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter
      unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.
