* sched: remove interactivity typesIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | remove now unused interactivity-heuristics related defined and types of the old scheduler. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: clean up include files in sched.cIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | clean up include files in sched.c, they were still old-style <asm/>. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: clean up fastcall uses of sched_fork()/sched_exit()Ingo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | sched_fork()/sched_exit() does not need to specify fastcall anymore, as the x86 kernel defaults to regparm3, and no assembly code calls these functions. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* sched: x86, track TSC-unstable eventsIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | track TSC-unstable events and propagate it to the scheduler code. Also allow sched_clock() to be used when the TSC is unstable, the rq_clock() wrapper creates a reliable clock out of it. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: cfs core codeIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | apply the CFS core code. this change switches over the scheduler core to CFS's modular design and makes use of kernel/sched_fair/rt/idletask.c to implement Linux's scheduling policies. thanks to Andrew Morton and Thomas Gleixner for lots of detailed review feedback and for fixlets.

* sched: remove the sleep-bonus interactivity codeIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | remove the sleep-bonus interactivity code from the core scheduler. scheduling policy is implemented in the policy modules, and CFS does not need such type of heuristics. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: remove expired_starving()Ingo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | remove the expired_starving() heuristics from the core scheduler. CFS does not need it, and this did not really work well in practice anyway, due to the rq->nr_running multiplier to STARVATION_LIMIT. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: remove sleep_typeIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | remove the sleep_type heuristics from the core scheduler - scheduling policy is implemented in the scheduling-policy modules. (and CFS does not use this type of sleep-type heuristics) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* sched: cleanup: move dequeue/enqueue_task()Ingo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | cleanup: move dequeue/enqueue_task() to a more logical place, to not split up __normal_prio()/normal_prio(). Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* sched: remove the SleepAVG fieldIngo Molnar2007-07-09

* sched: add rq_clock()/__rq_clock()Ingo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | add rq_clock()/__rq_clock(), a robust wrapper around sched_clock(), used by CFS. It protects against common type of sched_clock() problems (caused by hardware): time warps forwards and backwards. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: cfs rq data typesIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | add the CFS rq data types to sched.c. (the old scheduler fields are still intact, they are removed by a later patch) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: cfs, core data typesIngo Molnar2007-07-09

* sched: cfs core, kernel/sched_idletask.cIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | add kernel/sched_idletask.c - which implements the idle thread scheduling class. This further simplifies sched.c (under CFS), for example a number of 'if (p == rq->idle)' type of special-cases can be removed from sched.c, and schedule() gets simpler too. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: cfs core, kernel/sched_rt.cIngo Molnar2007-07-09

* sched: increase the resolution of smpniceIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | increase SMP-nice's resolution. This is needed by CFS to implement SCHED_IDLE and cleaned up nice level support. no behavioral changes. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: move code into kernel/sched_stats.hIngo Molnar2007-07-09

* sched: add init_idle_bootup_task()Ingo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | add the init_idle_bootup_task() callback to the bootup thread, unused at the moment. (CFS will use it to switch the scheduling class of the boot thread to the idle class) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* sched: remove sched_exit()Ingo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | remove sched_exit(): the elaborate dance of us trying to recover timeslices given to child tasks never really worked. CFS does not need it either. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing codeIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the SMP load-balancer uses the boot-time migration-cost estimation code to attempt to improve the quality of balancing. The reason for this code is that the discrete priority queues do not preserve the order of scheduling accurately, so the load-balancer skips tasks that were running on a CPU 'recently'. this code is fundamental fragile: the boot-time migration cost detector doesnt really work on systems that had large L3 caches, it caused boot delays on large systems and the whole cache-hot concept made the balancing code pretty undeterministic as well. (and hey, i wrote most of it, so i can say it out loud that it sucks ;-) under CFS the same purpose of cache affinity can be achieved without any special cache-hot special-case: tasks are sorted in the 'timeline' tree and the SMP balancer picks tasks from the left side of the tree, thus the most cache-cold task is balanced automatically.

* sched: rename idle_type/SCHED_IDLEIngo Molnar2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | enum idle_type (used by the load-balancer) clashes with the SCHED_IDLE name that we want to introduce. 'CPU_IDLE' instead of 'SCHED_IDLE' is more descriptive as well. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PIO4 is a maximum PIO mode supported by a driver. Using "255" as a max_mode argument to ide_get_best_pio_mode() could result in wrong timings being used by a driver (for "pio" equal to 5) or OOPS (for "pio" values > 5 && < 255).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SiS966 has one additional PCI-ID 1180. If the chipset is using this PCI-ID, the primary channel is connected to the first PATA-port. The secondary channel is connected to SATA-ports in IDE emulation mode. The legacy IO-ports are used. The including of the PCI-ID into pata_sis is not sufficient, because the legacy driver in drivers/ide is initialized before pata_sis.

* | Fix permission checking for the new utimensat() system callLinus Torvalds2007-07-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 1c710c896eb461895d3c399e15bb5f20b39c9073 added the utimensat() system call, but didn't handle the case of checking for the writability of the target right, when the target was a file descriptor, not a filename. We cannot use vfs_permission(MAY_WRITE) for that case, and need to simply check whether the file descriptor is writable. The oops from using the wrong function was noticed and narrowed down by Markus Trippelsdorf.

* Fix use-after-free oops in Bluetooth HID.David Woodhouse2007-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When cleaning up HIDP sessions, we currently close the ACL connection before deregistering the input device. Closing the ACL connection schedules a workqueue to remove the associated objects from sysfs, but the input device still refers to them -- and if the workqueue happens to run before the input device removal, the kernel will oops when trying to look up PHYSDEVPATH for the removed input device. Fix this by deregistering the input device before closing the connections.
