They aren't used. They were briefly used as part of some other patches to provide an alternative format for displaying some /proc and /sys cpumasks. They probably should have been removed when those other patches were dropped, in favor of a different solution.

Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is obviously not the point of it at all). Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier, so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing the wrong thing. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

We should not go through the task pointer to get at the thread info, since it's usually cheaper to just access the thread info directly. So don't make the code look up 'current', when we can just use the thread info accessor functions directly. This generally avoids one level of indirection and tends to work better together with code that also looks at other thread flags (eg preempt_count).

It acts exactly like a regular 'cond_resched()', but will not get optimized away when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set. Normal kernel code is already preemptable in the presense of CONFIG_PREEMPT, so cond_resched() is optimized away (see commit 02b67cc3 "sched: do not do cond_resched() when CONFIG_PREEMPT"). But when wanting to conditionally reschedule while holding a lock, you need to use "cond_sched_lock(lock)", and the new function is the BKL equivalent of that. Also make fs/locks.c use it.

As the old driver_name/type matching scheme is going away soon, change the dummy device mechanism to use the new matching scheme. This has the downside that dummy i2c clients can no longer choose their name, they'll all appear as "dummy" in sysfs and in log messages. I don't think it is a problem in practice though, as there is little reason to use these i2c clients to log messages. Signed-off-by: NJean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

The generic semaphore rewrite had a huge performance regression on AIM7 (and potentially other BKL-heavy benchmarks) because the generic semaphores had been rewritten to be simple to understand and fair. The latter, in particular, turns a semaphore-based BKL implementation into a mess of scheduling. The attempt to fix the performance regression failed miserably (see the previous commit 00b41ec2 'Revert "semaphore: fix"'), and so for now the simple and sane approach is to instead just go back to the old spinlock-based BKL implementation that never had any issues like this. This patch also has the advantage of being reported to fix the regression completely according to Yanmin Zhang, unlike the semaphore hack which still left a couple percentage point regression. As a spinlock, the BKL obviously has the potential to be a latency issue, but it's not really any different from any other spinlock in that respect. We do want to get rid of the BKL asap, but that has been the plan for several years. These days, the biggest users are in the tty layer (open/release in particular) and Alan holds out some hope: "tty release is probably a few months away from getting cured - I'm afraid it will almost certainly be the very last user of the BKL in tty to get fixed as it depends on everything else being sanely locked." so while we're not there yet, we do have a plan of action.

Some Inovaphone PBXs exhibit very stange behaviour: when dialing for example "123", the device sends INVITE requests for "1", "12" and "123" back to back. The first requests will elicit error responses from the receiver, causing the SIP helper to flush the RTP expectations even though we might still see a positive response. Note the sequence number of the last INVITE request that contained a media description and only flush the expectations when receiving a negative response for that sequence number.

Some controllers (jmb and inic162x) use 0x77 and 0x7f to indicate that the device isn't ready yet. It looks like they use 0xff if device presence is detected but connection isn't established. 0x77 or 0x7f after connection is established and use the value from signature FIS after receiving it. This patch implements ata_check_ready(), which takes TF status value and determines whether the port is ready or not considering the above and other conditions, and use it in @check_ready() functions. This is safe as both 0x77 and 0x7f aren't valid ready status value even though they have BSY bit cleared. This fixes hot plug detection failures which can be triggered with certain drives if they aren't already spun up when the data connector is hot plugged. Tested on sil, sil24, ahci (jmb/ich), piix and inic162x combined with eight drives from all major vendors.

A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed some flaws in the API: in particular, we assume that feature negotiation is complete once a driver's probe function returns. There is nothing in the API to require this, however, and even I didn't notice when it was violated. So instead, we require the driver to specify what features it supports in a table, we can then move the feature negotiation into the virtio core. The intersection of device and driver features are presented in a new 'features' bitmap in the struct virtio_device. Note that this highlights the difference between Linux unsigned-long bitmaps where each unsigned long is in native endian, and a straight-forward little-endian array of bytes. Drivers can still remove feature bits in their probe routine if they really have to. API changes: - dev->config->feature() no longer gets and acks a feature. - drivers should advertise their features in the 'feature_table' field - use virtio_has_feature() for extra sanity when checking feature bits Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed some flaws in the API, in particular how easy it is to break big endian machines. The virtio config space was originally chosen to be little-endian, because we thought the config might be part of the PCI config space for virtio_pci. It's actually a separate mmio region, so that argument holds little water; as only x86 is currently using the virtio mechanism, we can change this (but must do so now, before the impending s390 merge).

Uwe Kleine-Koenig has some strange hardware where one of the shared interrupts can be asserted during boot before the appropriate driver loads. Requesting the shared irq line from another driver result in a spurious interrupt storm which finally disables the interrupt line. I have seen similar behaviour on resume before (the hardware does not work anymore so I can not verify). Change the spurious disable logic to increment the disable depth and mark the interrupt with an extra flag which allows us to reenable the interrupt when a new driver arrives which requests the same irq line. In the worst case this will disable the irq again via the spurious trap, but there is a decent chance that the new driver is the one which can handle the already asserted interrupt and makes the box usable again. Eric Biederman said further: This case also happens on a regular basis in kdump kernels where we deliberately don't shutdown the hardware before starting the new kernel. This patch should reduce the need for using irqpoll in that situation by a small amount.
