      block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages · 2d4dc890
      Ilya Loginov 提交于
      Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
      this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
      the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.
      
      The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
      pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
      flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
      flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
      equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.
      
      See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
      on LKML for more information.

      locking: Make inlining decision Kconfig based · 6beb0009
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      commit 892a7c67 (locking: Allow arch-inlined spinlocks) implements the
      selection of which lock functions are inlined based on defines in
      arch/.../spinlock.h: #define __always_inline__LOCK_FUNCTION
      
      Despite of the name __always_inline__* the lock functions can be built
      out of line depending on config options. Also if the arch does not set
      some inline defines the generic code might set them; again depending on
      config options.
      
      This makes it unnecessary hard to figure out when and which lock
      functions are inlined. Aside of that it makes it way harder and
      messier for -rt to manipulate the lock functions.
      
      Convert the inlining decision to CONFIG switches. Each lock function
      is inlined depending on CONFIG_INLINE_*. The configs implement the
      existing dependencies. The architecture code can select ARCH_INLINE_*
      to signal that it wants the corresponding lock function inlined.
      ARCH_INLINE_* is necessary as Kconfig ignores "depends on"
      restrictions when a config element is selected.
      
      No functional change.

      nohz: Introduce arch_needs_cpu · 3c5d92a0
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      Allow the architecture to request a normal jiffy tick when the system
      goes idle and tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick is called . On s390 the hook is
      used to prevent the system going fully idle if there has been an
      interrupt other than a clock comparator interrupt since the last wakeup.
      
      On s390 the HiperSockets response time for 1 connection ping-pong goes
      down from 42 to 34 microseconds. The CPU cost decreases by 27%.

      net: Generalize socket rx gap / receive queue overflow cmsg · 3b885787
      Neil Horman 提交于
      Create a new socket level option to report number of queue overflows
      
      Recently I augmented the AF_PACKET protocol to report the number of frames lost
      on the socket receive queue between any two enqueued frames.  This value was
      exported via a SOL_PACKET level cmsg.  AFter I completed that work it was
      requested that this feature be generalized so that any datagram oriented socket
      could make use of this option.  As such I've created this patch, It creates a
      new SOL_SOCKET level option called SO_RXQ_OVFL, which when enabled exports a
      SOL_SOCKET level cmsg that reports the nubmer of times the sk_receive_queue
      overflowed between any two given frames.  It also augments the AF_PACKET
      protocol to take advantage of this new feature (as it previously did not touch
      sk->sk_drops, which this patch uses to record the overflow count).  Tested
      successfully by me.
      
      Notes:
      
      1) Unlike my previous patch, this patch simply records the sk_drops value, which
      is not a number of drops between packets, but rather a total number of drops.
      Deltas must be computed in user space.
      
      2) While this patch currently works with datagram oriented protocols, it will
      also be accepted by non-datagram oriented protocols. I'm not sure if thats
      agreeable to everyone, but my argument in favor of doing so is that, for those
      protocols which aren't applicable to this option, sk_drops will always be zero,
      and reporting no drops on a receive queue that isn't used for those
      non-participating protocols seems reasonable to me.  This also saves us having
      to code in a per-protocol opt in mechanism.
      
      3) This applies cleanly to net-next assuming that commit
      97775007 (my af packet cmsg patch) is reverted
