* [PATCH] hotplug CPU: clean up hotcpu_notifier() useIngo Molnar2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn, prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add #ifdefs. the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine: text data bss dec hex filename 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.before 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.after [akpm@osdl.org: topology.c fix] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] kprobes: enable booster on the preemptible kernelMasami Hiramatsu2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some processes might be preempted on the buffer. The freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer. There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag. If those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing. However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time. So, this patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot. It also introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency. The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released immediately. But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are marked as garbages. collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release "dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if there are no unused slots.

* [PATCH] mm: pagefault_{disable,enable}()Peter Zijlstra2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce pagefault_{disable,enable}() and use these where previously we did manual preempt increments/decrements to make the pagefault handler do the atomic thing. Currently they still rely on the increased preempt count, but do not rely on the disabled preemption, this might go away in the future.

* [S390] Reset infrastructure for re-IPL.Heiko Carstens2006-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case of re-IPL and diag308 doesn't work we have to reset all devices manually and wait synchronously that each reset finished. This patch adds the necessary infrastucture and the first exploiter of it. Subsystems that need to add a function that needs to be called at re-IPL may register/unregister this function via struct reset_call { struct reset_call *next; void (*fn)(void); }; void register_reset_call(struct reset_call *reset); void unregister_reset_call(struct reset_call *reset); When the registered function get called the context is: - all cpus beside the current one are stopped - all machine checks and interrupts are disabled - prefixing is disabled - a default machine check handler is available for use The registered functions may not take any locks are sleep. For the common I/O layer part of this patch: Introduce a reset_call css_reset that does the following: - clear all subchannels - perform a rchp on all channel paths and wait for the resulting machine checks This replaces the calls to clear_all_subchannels() and cio_reset_channel_paths() for kexec and ccw reipl. reipl_ccw_dev() now uses reipl_find_schid() to determine the subchannel id for a given device id. Also remove cio_reset_channel_paths() and friends since they are not needed anymore.

* [S390] revert add_active_range() usage patch.Heiko Carstens2006-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 7676bef9c183fd573822cac9992927ef596d584c breaks DCSS support on s390. DCSS needs initialized struct pages to work. With the usage of add_active_range() only the struct pages for physically present pages are initialized. This could be fixed if the DCSS driver would initiliaze the struct pages itself, but this doesn't work too. This is because the mem_map array does not include holes after the last present memory area and therefore there is nothing that could be initialized. To fix this and to avoid some dirty hacks revert this patch for now. Will be added later when we move to a virtual mem_map.

* [PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbersDavid Howells2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace automatically where the arch supports it. Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and so overlaps occur. This patch: Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace. The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then error EOVERFLOW will be issued. Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented. Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to. Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a 32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the same reasons. It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

* [PATCH] provide kernel_execve on all architecturesArnd Bergmann2006-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the new kernel_execve function on all architectures that were using _syscall3() to implement execve. The implementation uses code from the _syscall3 macros provided in the unistd.h header file. I don't have cross-compilers for any of these architectures, so the patch is untested with the exception of i386. Most architectures can probably implement this in a nicer way in assembly or by combining it with the sys_execve implementation itself, but this should do it for now.
