      [SPARC64]: Make debugging spinlocks usable again. · 442464a5
      David S. Miller 提交于
      When the spinlock routines were moved out of line into
      kernel/spinlock.c this made it so that the debugging
      spinlocks record lock acquisition program counts in the
      kernel/spinlock.c functions not in their callers.
      This makes the debugging info kind of useless.
      
      So record the correct caller's program counter and
      now this feature is useful once more.

      [SPARC64]: Avoid membar instructions in delay slots. · b445e26c
      David S. Miller 提交于
      In particular, avoid membar instructions in the delay
      slot of a jmpl instruction.
      
      UltraSPARC-I, II, IIi, and IIe have a bug, documented in
      the UltraSPARC-IIi User's Manual, Appendix K, Erratum 51
      
      The long and short of it is that if the IMU unit misses
      on a branch or jmpl, and there is a store buffer synchronizing
      membar in the delay slot, the chip can stop fetching instructions.
      
      If interrupts are enabled or some other trap is enabled, the
      chip will unwedge itself, but performance will suffer.
      
      We already had a workaround for this bug in a few spots, but
      it's better to have the entire tree sanitized for this rule.

      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!
