The kernel has this really nice facility where if you put "initcall_debug"
on the kernel commandline, it'll print which function it's going to
execute just before calling an initcall, and then after the call completes
it will

1) print if it had an error code

2) checks for a few simple bugs (like leaving irqs off)
and

3) print how long the init call took in milliseconds.

While trying to optimize the boot speed of my laptop, I have been loving
number 3 to figure out what to optimize...  ...  and then I wished that
the same thing was done for module loading.

This patch makes the module loader use this exact same functionality; it's
a logical extension in my view (since modules are just sort of late
binding initcalls anyway) and so far I've found it quite useful in finding
where things are too slow in my boot.

Added early initcall (pre-SMP) support, using an identical interface to
that of regular initcalls.  Functions called from do_pre_smp_initcalls()
could be converted to use this cleaner interface.

This is required by CPU hotplug, because early users have to register
notifiers before going SMP.  One such CPU hotplug user is the relay
interface with buffer-only channels, which needs to register such a
notifier, to be usable in early code.  This in turn is used by kmemtrace.

Since with this change Sam downgraded __INIT_REFOK to just a backward

Today we have the following annotations for functions/data
referencing __init/__exit functions / data:

__init_refok     => for init functions
__initdata_refok => for init data
__exit_refok     => for exit functions

There is really no difference between the __init and __exit
versions and simplify it and to introduce a shorter annotation
the following new annotations are introduced:

__ref      => for functions (code) that
              references __*init / __*exit
__refdata  => for variables
__refconst => for const variables

Whit this annotation is it more obvious what the annotation
is for and there is no longer the arbitary division
between __init and __exit code.

The mechanishm is the same as before - a special section
is created which is made part of the usual sections
in the linker script.

We will start to see annotations like this:

-static struct pci_serial_quirk pci_serial_quirks[] = {
+static const struct pci_serial_quirk pci_serial_quirks[] __refconst = {
-----------------
-static struct notifier_block __cpuinitdata cpuid_class_cpu_notifier =

----------------
-static int threshold_cpu_callback(struct notifier_block *nfb,
+static int __ref threshold_cpu_callback(struct notifier_block *nfb,

Introducing separate sections for __dev* (HOTPLUG),
__cpu* (HOTPLUG_CPU) and __mem* (MEMORY_HOTPLUG)
allows us to do a much more reliable Section mismatch
check in modpost. We are no longer dependent on the actual
configuration of for example HOTPLUG.

This has the effect that all users see much more
Section mismatch warnings than before because they
were almost all hidden when HOTPLUG was enabled.
The advantage of this is that when building a piece
of code then it is much more likely that the Section
mismatch errors are spotted and the warnings will be
felt less random of nature.

With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section,
thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before.
Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace
creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns
stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot.

Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls
are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be
merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to
use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes"
for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS
is not set to save more space in memory.

The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section,
as noticed by David, since the init section will have
references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost
checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace
never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I
introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already
done with the __init_refok.

gcc 4.3 supports a new __attribute__((__cold__)) to mark functions cold. Any
path directly leading to a call of this function will be unlikely. And gcc
will try to generate smaller code for the function itself.

Please use with care. The code generation advantage isn't large and in most
cases it is not worth uglifying code with this.

This patch marks some common error functions like panic(), printk()
as cold.  This will longer term make many unlikely()s unnecessary, although
we can keep them for now for older compilers.

BUG is not marked cold because there is currently no way to tell
gcc to mark a inline function told.

Also all __init and __exit functions are marked cold. With a non -Os
build this will tell the compiler to generate slightly smaller code
for them. I think it currently only uses less alignments for labels,
but that might change in the future.

One disadvantage over *likely() is that they cannot be easily instrumented
to verify them.

Another drawback is that only the latest gcc 4.3 snapshots support this.
Unfortunately we cannot detect this using the preprocessor. This means older
snapshots will fail now. I don't think that's a problem because they are
unreleased compilers that nobody should be using.

gcc also has a __hot__ attribute, but I don't see any sense in using
this in the kernel right now. But someday I hope gcc will be able
to use more aggressive optimizing for hot functions even in -Os,
if that happens it should be added.

Includes compile fix from Thomas Gleixner.

Current implementation stores a static command-line buffer allocated to
COMMAND_LINE_SIZE size.  Most architectures stores two copies of this buffer,
one for future reference and one for parameter parsing.

Current kernel command-line size for most architecture is much too small for
module parameters, video settings, initramfs paramters and much more.  The
problem is that setting COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to a grater value, allocates static
buffers.

In order to allow a greater command-line size, these buffers should be
dynamically allocated or marked as init disposable buffers, so unused memory
can be released.

This patch renames the static saved_command_line variable into
boot_command_line adding __initdata attribute, so that it can be disposed
after initialization.  This rename is required so applications that use
saved_command_line will not be affected by this change.

It reintroduces saved_command_line as dynamically allocated buffer to match
the data in boot_command_line.

It also mark secondary command-line buffer as __initdata, and copies it to
dynamically allocated static_command_line buffer components may hold reference
to it after initialization.

This patch is for linux-2.6.20-rc4-mm1 and is divided to target each
architecture.  I could not check this in any architecture so please forgive me
if I got it wrong.

The per-architecture modification is very simple, use boot_command_line in
place of saved_command_line.  The common code is the change into dynamic
command-line.

This patch:

1. Rename saved_command_line into boot_command_line, mark as init
   disposable.

2. Add dynamic allocated saved_command_line.

3. Add dynamic allocated static_command_line.

4. During startup copy: boot_command_line into saved_command_line.  arch
   command_line into static_command_line.

5. Parse static_command_line and not arch command_line, so arch
   command_line may be freed.

The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg,
core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next
level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling
core_initcall are still executing.  This breaks the guarantees which the
layered initcalls previously gave us.

IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between
different levels.

Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at
one level to complete before we start processing the next level.
