      Remove fs.h from mm.h · 4e950f6f
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      Remove fs.h from mm.h. For this,
       1) Uninline vma_wants_writenotify(). It's pretty huge anyway.
       2) Add back fs.h or less bloated headers (err.h) to files that need it.
      
      As result, on x86_64 allyesconfig, fs.h dependencies cut down from 3929 files
      rebuilt down to 3444 (-12.3%).

      [SPARC]: Fix serial console device detection. · c73fcc84
      David S. Miller 提交于
      The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which
      is wrong.
      
      The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias
      or similar to a full path name to the console device.
      
      Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a
      colon at the end of the path.  The option area is used to specify
      which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a
      device node drives multiple ports.  'a' is assumed if the option
      specification is missing.
      
      This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator.  The 'output-device'
      property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this
      is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'.  Instead we saw it
      as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console.
      
      The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve
      the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too.
      
      Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

      [SPARC64]: Move away from virtual page tables, part 1. · 74bf4312
      David S. Miller 提交于
      We now use the TSB hardware assist features of the UltraSPARC
      MMUs.
      
      SMP is currently knowingly broken, we need to find another place
      to store the per-cpu base pointers.  We hid them away in the TSB
      base register, and that obviously will not work any more :-)
      
      Another known broken case is non-8KB base page size.
      
      Also noticed that flush_tlb_all() is not referenced anywhere, only
      the internal __flush_tlb_all() (local cpu only) is used by the
      sparc64 port, so we can get rid of flush_tlb_all().
      
      The kernel gets it's own 8KB TSB (swapper_tsb) and each address space
      gets it's own private 8K TSB.  Later we can add code to dynamically
      increase the size of per-process TSB as the RSS grows.  An 8KB TSB is
      good enough for up to about a 4MB RSS, after which the TSB starts to
      incur many capacity and conflict misses.
      
      We even accumulate OBP translations into the kernel TSB.
      
      Another area for refinement is large page size support.  We could use
      a secondary address space TSB to handle those.

      [PATCH] sched: resched and cpu_idle rework · 64c7c8f8
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce
      confusion, and make their semantics rigid.  Improves efficiency of
      resched_task and some cpu_idle routines.
      
      * In resched_task:
      - TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held,
        and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an
        atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is
        when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is
        protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe.
      
      - If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It
        won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off.
      
      - If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set
        TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required.
      
      - If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set
        after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI.
      
      Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in
      resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of
      POLLING_NRFLAG.
      
      * In idle routines:
      - Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition
        becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer
        (IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet.
      
      - Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According
        to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the
        assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock
        held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching
        to the idle thread.
      
      - Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner
        most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be
        set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into
        a halt requiring interrupt wakeup.
      
        Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG
        can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling
        the idle task.
      
        POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

      [PATCH] sched: disable preempt in idle tasks · 5bfb5d69
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
      
      Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
      How did it ever work before?
      
      Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
      
      We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
      need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
      
      After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
      into the idle thread and goes to sleep.  The CPU will continue executing
      previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
      
      By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
      fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

      [PATCH] spinlock consolidation · fb1c8f93
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
      de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code.  It does the following
      things:
      
       - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code
      
       - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files
      
       - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
         features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code.
      
       - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.
      
      Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
      located in lib/spinlock_debug.c.  (previously we had one SMP debugging
      variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)
      
      Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
      write-owners.  There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
      All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
      spin/rwlock lockups.
      
      The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
      subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
      lives in the generic headers:
      
       include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h       |   16
       include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h     |   16
      
      I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,
      making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is:
      
         SMP                         |  UP
         ----------------------------|-----------------------------------
         asm/spinlock_types_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_types_up.h

       * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files:
       *
       * on SMP builds:
       *
       *  asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the
       *                        initializers
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_types.h:
       *                        defines the generic type and initializers
       *
       *  asm/spinlock.h:       contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. lowlevel
       *                        implementations, mostly inline assembly code
       *
       *   (also included on UP-debug builds:)
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:
       *                        contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs.
       *
       *  linux/spinlock.h:     builds the final spin_*() APIs.
       *
       * on UP builds:
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_type_up.h:
       *                        contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type.
       *                        (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds)
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_types.h:
       *                        defines the generic type and initializers
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_up.h:
       *                        contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP
       *                        builds. (which are NOPs on non-debug, non-preempt
       *                        builds)
       *
       *   (included on UP-non-debug builds:)
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_api_up.h:
       *                        builds the _spin_*() APIs.

      All SMP and UP architectures are converted by this patch.
      
      arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via
      crosscompilers.  m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should
      be mostly fine.

        Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU).
        Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested).  I did not try to build
        non-SMP kernels.  That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary.
      
        I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t.  Doing so avoids
        some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files.  Those particular locks
        are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code.  I do NOT
        expect any new issues to arise with them.
      
       If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will
        need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops
        that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW
        (load and clear word).

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
