      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%.

      [S390] ETR support. · d54853ef
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      This patch adds support for clock synchronization to an external time
      reference (ETR). The external time reference sends an oscillator
      signal and a synchronization signal every 2^20 microseconds to keep
      the TOD clocks of all connected servers in sync. For availability
      two ETR units can be connected to a machine. If the clock deviates
      for more than the sync-check tolerance all cpus get a machine check
      that indicates that the clock is out of sync. For the lovely details
      how to get the clock back in sync see the code below.

      [PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls · 5cbded58
      Robert P. J. Day 提交于
      Run this:
      
      	#!/bin/sh
      	for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
      	  echo "De-casting $f..."
      	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
      	done
      
      And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
      to non-pointers.
      
      And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

      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!
