Powerpc already has a directed yield for CONFIG_PREEMPT="n". To make it work with CONFIG_PREEMPT="y" as well the _raw_{spin,read,write}_relax primitives need to be defined to call __spin_yield() for spinlocks and __rw_yield() for rw-locks.

On systems running with virtual cpus there is optimization potential in regard to spinlocks and rw-locks. If the virtual cpu that has taken a lock is known to a cpu that wants to acquire the same lock it is beneficial to yield the timeslice of the virtual cpu in favour of the cpu that has the lock (directed yield). With CONFIG_PREEMPT="n" this can be implemented by the architecture without common code changes. Powerpc already does this. With CONFIG_PREEMPT="y" the lock loops are coded with _raw_spin_trylock, _raw_read_trylock and _raw_write_trylock in kernel/spinlock.c. If the lock could not be taken cpu_relax is called. A directed yield is not possible because cpu_relax doesn't know anything about the lock. To be able to yield the lock in favour of the current lock holder variants of cpu_relax for spinlocks and rw-locks are needed. The new _raw_spin_relax, _raw_read_relax and _raw_write_relax primitives differ from cpu_relax insofar that they have an argument: a pointer to the lock structure.

I was playing with LED triggers when I noticed that changing from heartbeat (or ide-disk) to "none" at the right moment would leave the LED stuck on. This is easy to reproduce by doing "find / >/dev/null" with the ide-disk trigger enabled and then switching to "none". Here is a patch that fixes the problem by explicitly turning the LED off after removing the existing trigger.

The driver for /proc/config.gz consumes rather a lot of memory and it is in fact possible to build it as a module. In some ways this is a bit risky, because the .config which is used for compiling kernel/configs.c isn't necessarily the same as the .config which was used to build vmlinux. But OTOH the potential memory savings are decent, and it'd be fairly dumb to build your configs.o with a different .config.

One of idiomatic ways to duplicate a region of memory is dst = kmalloc(len, GFP_KERNEL); if (!dst) return -ENOMEM; memcpy(dst, src, len); which is neat code except a programmer needs to write size twice. Which sometimes leads to mistakes. If len passed to kmalloc is smaller that len passed to memcpy, it's straight overwrite-beyond-end. If len passed to memcpy is smaller than len passed to kmalloc, it's either a) legit behaviour ;-), or b) cloned buffer will contain garbage in second half. Slight trolling of commit lists shows several duplications bugs done exactly because of diverged lenghts: Linux: [CRYPTO]: Fix memcpy/memset args. [PATCH] memcpy/memset fixes OpenBSD: kerberosV/src/lib/asn1: der_copy.c:1.4 If programmer is given only one place to play with lengths, I believe, such mistakes could be avoided. With kmemdup, the snippet above will be rewritten as: dst = kmemdup(src, len, GFP_KERNEL); if (!dst) return -ENOMEM; This also leads to smaller code (kzalloc effect). Quick grep shows 200+ places where kmemdup() can be used.

Add maximum latency tracking to the ALSA subsystem for PCM playback. In ALSA, the playback application controls the buffer size and thus indirectly the period of latency that it can deal with. This patch uses 75% of the total available latency as threshold to announce to the latency subsystem; While 75% is a crude heuristic it's a quite reasonable one; the remaining 25% can be used for all driver processing for the next samples which is also proportional to the size of the buffer. With ogg123 a latency setting of about 4msec was seen (at 44Khz), while with the "play" command a much longer maximum tolerable latency was seen. Other, more multimedia oriented players as well as games, will have a lot smaller buffers to allow better synchronization and those will actually get into the latency domains where there is impact on the power management rules.

Add infrastructure to track "maximum allowable latency" for power saving policies. The reason for adding this infrastructure is that power management in the idle loop needs to make a tradeoff between latency and power savings (deeper power save modes have a longer latency to running code again). The code that today makes this tradeoff just does a rather simple algorithm; however this is not good enough: There are devices and use cases where a lower latency is required than that the higher power saving states provide. An example would be audio playback, but another example is the ipw2100 wireless driver that right now has a very direct and ugly acpi hook to disable some higher power states randomly when it gets certain types of error. The proposed solution is to have an interface where drivers can * announce the maximum latency (in microseconds) that they can deal with * modify this latency * give up their constraint and a function where the code that decides on power saving strategy can query the current global desired maximum. This patch has a user of each side: on the consumer side, ACPI is patched to use this, on the producer side the ipw2100 driver is patched. A generic maximum latency is also registered of 2 timer ticks (more and you lose accurate time tracking after all). While the existing users of the patch are x86 specific, the infrastructure is not. I'd like to ask the arch maintainers of other architectures if the infrastructure is generic enough for their use (assuming the architecture has such a tradeoff as concept at all), and the sound/multimedia driver owners to look at the driver facing API to see if this is something they can use.

In cases where the acpi memory-add event does not containe the pxm (node) infomation allow the driver to look up node info based on the address. The acpi_get_node call returns -1 if it can't decode the pxm info, this causes add_memory to panic. acpi_get_node would have to decode the resource from the handle (a lenghty proposition). This seems to be the cleanist point to interject the hook.
