* headers: smp_lock.h reduxAlexey Dobriyan2009-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | * Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!) * Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it * Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW) Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* alpha: convert to generic sys_ptraceChristoph Hellwig2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts alpha to the generic sys_ptrace. We use force_successful_syscall_return to avoid having to pass the pt_regs pointer down to the function. I think the removal of the assemly stub is correct, but I could only compile-test this patch, so please give it a spin before commiting :) Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Cc: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* Consolidate PTRACE_DETACHAlexey Dobriyan2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | Identical handlers of PTRACE_DETACH go into ptrace_request(). Not touching compat code. Not touching archs that don't call ptrace_request.

* PTRACE_POKEDATA consolidationAlexey Dobriyan2007-07-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Identical implementations of PTRACE_POKEDATA go into generic_ptrace_pokedata() function. AFAICS, fix bug on xtensa where successful PTRACE_POKEDATA will nevertheless return EPERM.

* [PATCH] use ptrace_get_task_struct in various placesChristoph Hellwig2006-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ptrace_get_task_struct() helper that I added as part of the ptrace consolidation is useful in variety of places that currently opencode it. Switch them to the common helpers. Add a ptrace_traceme() helper that needs to be explicitly called, and simplify the ptrace_get_task_struct() interface. We don't need the request argument now, and we return the task_struct directly, using ERR_PTR() for error returns. It's a bit more code in the callers, but we have two sane routines that do one thing well now.

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!
