      [PATCH] m68k pt_regs fixes · 2850bc27
      Al Viro 提交于
      m68k_handle_int() split in two functions: __m68k_handle_int() takes
      pt_regs * and does set_irq_regs(); m68k_handle_int() doesn't get pt_regs
      *.
      
      Places where we used to call m68k_handle_int() recursively with the same
      pt_regs have simply lost the second argument, the rest is switched to
      __m68k_handle_int().
      
      The rest of patch is just dropping pt_regs * where needed.

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      David Howells 提交于
      Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
      of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
      Linux kernel.
      
      The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
      space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
      from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
      (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
      
      Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
      something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
      maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
      handling.
      
      Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
      through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
      device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
      interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
      device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
      layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
      
      I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
      main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
      I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
      with minimal configurations.
      
      This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
      Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
      
      	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
      
      And put the old one back at the end:
      
      	set_irq_regs(old_regs);
      
      Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
      
      In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
      
      	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
      	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
      	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
      	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
      
      I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
      except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
      
      Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
      
       (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
           the input_dev struct.
      
       (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
           something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
           pointer or not.
      
       (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
           irq_handler_t.

      [PA-RISC] Fix time.c for new do_timer() calling convention · 1604f318

      do_timer now wants to know how many ticks have elapsed.  Now that we
      have to calculate that, we can eliminate some of the clever code that
      avoided having to calculate that.  Also add some more documentation.
      I'd like to thank Grant Grundler for helping me with this.

      [POWERPC] spufs: add infrastructure for finding elf objects · 86767277
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      This adds an 'object-id' file that the spe library can
      use to store a pointer to its ELF object. This was
      originally meant for use by oprofile, but is now
      also used by the GNU debugger, if available.
      
      In order for oprofile to find the location in an spu-elf
      binary where an event counter triggered, we need a way
      to identify the binary in the first place.
      
      Unfortunately, that binary itself can be embedded in a
      powerpc ELF binary. Since we can assume it is mapped into
      the effective address space of the running process,
      have that one write the pointer value into a new spufs
      file.
      
      When a context switch occurs, pass the user value to
      the profiler so that can look at the mapped file (with
      some care).

      [POWERPC] spufs: support new OF device tree format · 7650f2f2
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      The properties we used traditionally in the device tree are somewhat
      nonstandard.  This adds support for a more conventional format using
      'interrupts' and 'reg' properties.
      
      The interrupts are specified in three cells (class 0, 1 and 2) and
      registered at the interrupt-parent.
      
      The reg property contains either three or four register areas in the
      order 'local-store', 'problem', 'priv2', and 'priv1', so the priv1 one
      can be left out in case of hypervisor driven systems that access these
      through hcalls.
