| | * xen/acpi: Fix Kconfig dependency on CPU_FREQKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk2012-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The functions: "acpi_processor_*" sound like they depend on CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR but in reality they are exposed when CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=[y|m]. As such update the Kconfig to have this dependency and fix compile issues: ERROR: "acpi_processor_unregister_performance" [drivers/xen/xen-acpi-processor.ko] undefined!

| | * xen: initialize platform-pci even if xen_emul_unplug=neverIgor Mammedov2012-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When xen_emul_unplug=never is specified on kernel command line reading files from /sys/hypervisor is broken (returns -EBUSY). It is caused by xen_bus dependency on platform-pci and platform-pci isn't initialized when xen_emul_unplug=never is specified. Fix it by allowing platform-pci to ignore xen_emul_unplug=never, and do not intialize xen_[blk|net]front instead.

We use PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2 to map the bitmap, then if we succeed we use pirq_eoi_map to check whether pirqs need eoi. Changes in v3: - explicitly use PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2 rather than PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn; - introduce pirq_check_eoi_map, a function to check if a pirq needs an eoi using the map; -rename pirq_needs_eoi into pirq_needs_eoi_flag; - introduce a function pointer called pirq_needs_eoi that is going to be set to the right implementation depending on the availability of PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2.

This allows us to significantly reduce the scope of headers including headers. For this instance, a reduction of about 40% is achieved by replacing the include with the simple fact that the device is some kind of a struct. Unlike the much larger module.h cleanup, this one is simply two commits.

Clean up the users as follows: 1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that. 2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply delete the include altogether. 3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h 4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding the required header(s). Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be present have already been dealt with in advance. Total removals from #1 and #2: 51. Total additions coming from #3: 9. Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7. As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/* Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h was including <asm/bug.h> to pseudo link them. This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here is an example that violates the principle of least surprise: CC lib/string.o lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat': lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON' make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1 $ $ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c #include <linux/bug.h> $ We've included <linux/bug.h> for the BUG infrastructure and yet we still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh - very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development. With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are: 1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the implicit presence of BUG code. 2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code. 3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to <linux/bug.h> 4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain. During development, the order was more like 3-4, build-test, 1-2. But to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem areas in advance.

Insert/remove/Lookup in sysctl are all now O(NlogN) operations, and are no longer bottlenecks in the process of adding and removing network devices. sysctl is now focused on being a filesystem instead of system call and the code can all be found in fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c. Hopefully this means the code is now approachable. Much thanks is owed to Lucian Grinjincu for keeping at this until something was found that was usable. - The recent proc_sys_poll oops found by the fuzzer during hibernation is fixed. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/sysctl: (36 commits) sysctl: protect poll() in entries that may go away sysctl: Don't call sysctl_follow_link unless we are a link. sysctl: Comments to make the code clearer. sysctl: Correct error return from get_subdir sysctl: An easier to read version of find_subdir sysctl: fix memset parameters in setup_sysctl_set() sysctl: remove an unused variable sysctl: Add register_sysctl for normal sysctl users sysctl: Index sysctl directories with rbtrees. sysctl: Make the header lists per directory. sysctl: Move sysctl_check_dups into insert_header sysctl: Modify __register_sysctl_paths to take a set instead of a root and an nsproxy sysctl: Replace root_list with links between sysctl_table_sets. sysctl: Add sysctl_print_dir and use it in get_subdir sysctl: Stop requiring explicit management of sysctl directories sysctl: Add a root pointer to ctl_table_set sysctl: Rewrite proc_sys_readdir in terms of first_entry and next_entry sysctl: Rewrite proc_sys_lookup introducing find_entry and lookup_entry. sysctl: Normalize the root_table data structure. sysctl: Factor out insert_header and erase_header ...

This is needed if poll() is called in entries created by modules: currently only hostname and domainname support poll(), but this bug may be triggered when/if modules use it and if user called poll() in a file that doesn't support it.

Several of those tunables are per network device. In several instances people are running with 1000+ network devices in there network stacks, which makes the simple per directory linked list in sysctl a scaling bottleneck. Replace O(N^2) sysctl insertion and lookup times with O(NlogN) by using an rbtree to index the sysctl directories.

I have commented out the code that adds and removes files under /proc/sys/net/dev_snmp6 and taken measurments of creating and destroying 100,000 dummies to verify the sysctl continues to scale.

This makes the code slightly more maintainable by enabling changes to data structures where the insertion of new entries without duplicate suppression is not possible. There is not always a convenient path string where insert_header is called so modify sysctl_check_dups to use sysctl_print_dir when printing the full path when a duplicate is discovered.

Replace the sysctl wide list of roots with autogenerated links from the core sysctl directory tree to the other sysctl directory trees. This simplifies sysctl directory reading and lookups as now only entries in a single sysctl directory tree need to be considered.

Autogenerating directories keeps sysctl tables from depending on each other, removing all of the arcane register/unregister ordering constraints and makes it impossible to get the order wrong when reigsering and unregistering sysctl tables. Autogenerating directories yields one unique entity that dentries can point to, retaining the current effective use of the dcache. Add struct ctl_dir as the type of these new autogenerated directories. The attached_by and attached_to fields in ctl_table_header are removed as they are no longer needed. The child field in ctl_table is no longer needed by the core of the sysctl code. ctl_table.child can be removed once all of the existing users have been updated.
