      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      Also the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE thread flag is now cleared on PTRACE_KILL which

      Add generic sys_ipc wrapper · baed7fc9
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall.  Except for
      s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical.
      
      There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips
      and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned
      long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while
      it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters.  frv goes even
      further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which
      is a pointer type everywhere.  The change from int to unsigned long for
      "third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the
      in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar
      issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch
      maintainers looks over this in details.
      
      Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the
      semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have
      gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on
      x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.

      MIPS: PowerTV: Fix support for timer interrupts with > 64 external IRQs · 010c108d
      David VomLehn 提交于
      The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a
      greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific
      registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine
      which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work.
      
      On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register,
      specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses
      that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected
      to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.

      MIPS: Fix and enhance built-in kernel command line · 6acc7d48
      Dmitri Vorobiev 提交于
      Currently, MIPS kernels silently overwrite kernel command-line parameters
      hardcoded in CONFIG_CMDLINE by the ones received from firmware.  Therefore,
      using firmware remains the only reliable method to transfer the
      command-line parameters, which is not always desirable or convenient, and
      the CONFIG_CMDLINE option is thereby effectively rendered useless.
      
      This patch fixes the problem described above and introduces a more flexible
      scheme of handling the kernel command line, in a manner identical to what is
      currently used for x86.  The default behavior, i.e. when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL
      is not defined, retains the existing semantics, and firmware command-line
      arguments override the hardcoded ones.

      MIPS: Tracing: Make function graph tracer work with -mmcount-ra-address · 7326c4e5
      Wu Zhangjin 提交于
      That thread "MIPS: Add option to pass return address location to
      _mcount" from "David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com>" have added a new
      option -mmcount-ra-address to gcc(4.5) for MIPS to transfer the location
      of the return address to _mcount.
      
      Benefit from this new feature, function graph tracer on MIPS will be
      easier and safer to hijack the return address of the kernel function,
      which will save some overhead and make the whole thing more reliable.
      
      In this patch, at first, try to enable the option -mmcount-ra-address in
      arch/mips/Makefile with cc-option, if gcc support it, it will be
      enabled, otherwise, no side effect.
      
      and then, we need to support this new option of gcc 4.5 and also support
      the old gcc versions.
      
      with _mcount in the old gcc versions, it's not easy to get the location
      of return address(tracing: add function graph tracer support for MIPS),
         so, we do it in a C function: ftrace_get_parent_addr(ftrace.c), but
         with -mmcount-ra-address, only several instructions need to get what
         we want, so, I put into asm(mcount.S). and also, as the $12(t0) is
         used by -mmcount-ra-address for transferring the localtion of return
         address to _mcount, we need to save it into the stack and restore it
         when enabled dynamic function tracer, 'Cause we have called
         "ftrace_call" before "ftrace_graph_caller", which may destroy
         $12(t0).
      
      (Thanks to David for providing that -mcount-ra-address and giving the
       idea of KBUILD_MCOUNT_RA_ADDRESS, both of them have made the whole
       thing more beautiful!)
