alpha: expose number of page table levels on Kconfig level

2015-04-14T23:49:01+00:00

I've implemented accounting for pmd page tables as we have for pte (see
mm->nr_ptes).  It's requires a new counter in mm_struct: mm->nr_pmds.

But the feature doesn't make any sense if an architecture has PMD level
folded and it would be nice get rid of the counter in this case.

The problem is that we cannot use __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED in
 due to circular dependencies:

 ->  -> 

In most cases  wants  to get definition
of struct page and struct vm_area_struct.  I've tried to split mm_struct
into separate header file to be able to user  there.

But it doesn't fly on some architectures, like ARM: it wants mm_struct
 to implement tlb flushing.  I don't see how to fix it
without massive de-inlining or coverting a lot for inline functions to
macros.

This is other approach: expose number of page tables in use via Kconfig
and use it in  instead of __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED from
.

This patch (of 19):

We would want to use number of page table level to define mm_struct.
Let's expose it as CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS.

audit: Add CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL

2014-03-20T14:11:10+00:00

Currently AUDITSYSCALL has a long list of architecture depencency:
       depends on AUDIT && (X86 || PARISC || PPC || S390 || IA64 || UML ||
		SPARC64 || SUPERH || (ARM && AEABI && !OABI_COMPAT) || ALPHA)
The purpose of this patch is to replace it with HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL
for simplicity.

alpha: Reorganize rtc handling

2013-11-17T00:33:16+00:00

Discontinue use of GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE; rely on the RTC subsystem.

The marvel platform requires that the rtc only be touched from the
boot cpu.  This had been partially implemented with hooks for
get/set_rtc_time, but read/update_persistent_clock were not handled.
Move the hooks from the machine_vec to a special rtc_class_ops struct.

We had read_persistent_clock managing the epoch against which the
rtc hw is based, but this didn't apply to get_rtc_time or set_rtc_time.
This resulted in incorrect values when hwclock(8) gets involved.

Allow the epoch to be set from the kernel command-line, overriding
the autodetection, which is doomed to fail in 2020.  Further, by
implementing the rtc ioctl function, we can expose this epoch to
userland.

Elide the alarm functions that RTC_DRV_CMOS implements.  This was
highly questionable on Alpha, since the interrupt is used by the
system timer.
