      decompressors: add XZ decompressor module · 24fa0402
      Lasse Collin 提交于
      In userspace, the .lzma format has become mostly a legacy file format that
      got superseded by the .xz format.  Similarly, LZMA Utils was superseded by
      XZ Utils.
      
      These patches add support for XZ decompression into the kernel.  Most of
      the code is as is from XZ Embedded <http://tukaani.org/xz/embedded.html>.
      It was written for the Linux kernel but is usable in other projects too.
      
      Advantages of XZ over the current LZMA code in the kernel:
        - Nice API that can be used by other kernel modules; it's
          not limited to kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression.
        - Integrity check support (CRC32)
        - BCJ filters improve compression of executable code on
          certain architectures. These together with LZMA2 can
          produce a few percent smaller kernel or Squashfs images
          than plain LZMA without making the decompression slower.
      
      This patch: Add the main decompression code (xz_dec), testing module
      (xz_dec_test), wrapper script (xz_wrap.sh) for the xz command line tool,
      and documentation.  The xz_dec module is enough to have a usable XZ
      decompressor e.g.  for Squashfs.

      Revert "lib: build list_sort() only if needed" · b8fa0571
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit a069c266.
      
      It turns ou that not only was it missing a case (XFS) that needed it,
      but perhaps more importantly, people sometimes want to enable new
      modules that they hadn't had enabled before, and if such a module uses
      list_sort(), it can't easily be inserted any more.
      
      So rather than add a "select LIST_SORT" to the XFS case, just leave it
      compiled in.  It's not all _that_ big, after all, and the inconvenience
      isn't worth it.

      lib: Provide generic atomic64_t implementation · 09d4e0ed
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Many processor architectures have no 64-bit atomic instructions, but
      we need atomic64_t in order to support the perf_counter subsystem.
      
      This adds an implementation of 64-bit atomic operations using hashed
      spinlocks to provide atomicity.  For each atomic operation, the address
      of the atomic64_t variable is hashed to an index into an array of 16
      spinlocks.  That spinlock is taken (with interrupts disabled) around the
      operation, which can then be coded non-atomically within the lock.
      
      On UP, all the spinlock manipulation goes away and we simply disable
      interrupts around each operation.  In fact gcc eliminates the whole
      atomic64_lock variable as well.

      Eliminate the plist library kconfig and make it available

      x86, bitops: select the generic bitmap search functions · 19870def
      Alexander van Heukelum 提交于
      Introduce GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT and GENERIC_FIND_NEXT_BIT in
      lib/Kconfig, defaulting to off. An arch that wants to use the
      generic implementation now only has to use a select statement
      to include them.
      
      I added an always-y option (X86_CPU) to arch/x86/Kconfig.cpu
      and used that to select the generic search functions. This
      way ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386 automatically picks up the change
      too, and arch/um/Kconfig.i386 can therefore be simplified a
      bit. ARCH=um SUBARCH=x86_64 does things differently, but
      still compiles fine. It seems that a "def_bool y" always
      wins over a "def_bool n"?

      Introduce CONFIG_HAS_DMA · 411f0f3e
      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      Architectures that don't support DMA can say so by adding a config NO_DMA
      to their Kconfig file.  This will prevent compilation of some dma specific
      driver code.  Also dma-mapping-broken.h isn't needed anymore on at least
      s390.  This avoids compilation and linking of otherwise dead/broken code.
      
      Other architectures that include dma-mapping-broken.h are arm26, h8300,
      m68k, m68knommu and v850.  If these could be converted as well we could get
      rid of the header file.

      Al Viro 提交于
      * Split the implementation-agnostic stuff in separate files.
      * Make sure that targets using non-default request_irq() pull
        kernel/irq/devres.o
      * Introduce new symbols (HAS_IOPORT and HAS_IOMEM) defaulting to positive;
        allow architectures to turn them off (we needed these symbols anyway for
        dependencies of quite a few drivers).
      * protect the ioport-related parts of lib/devres.o with CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT.
