* iommu: Rename the DMAR and INTR_REMAP config optionsSuresh Siddha2011-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the CONFIG_DMAR to CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU to be consistent with the other IOMMU options. Rename the CONFIG_INTR_REMAP to CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP to match the irq subsystem name. And define the CONFIG_DMAR_TABLE for the common ACPI DMAR routines shared by both CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU and CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP.

* cgroup: remove the ns_cgroupDaniel Lezcano2011-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and leads to some problems: * cgroup creation is out-of-control * cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping * it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time * we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children', where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values. The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to the 'tasks' file. This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread: https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used. This is a userspace-visible change. Commit 45531757b45c ("cgroup: notify ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal. Since that time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Serge E. Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Cc: Eric W.

* x86, hwmon: Package Level Thermal/Power: pkgtemp hwmon driverFenghua Yu2010-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a hwmon driver for package level thermal control. The driver dumps package level thermal information through sysfs interface so that upper level application (e.g. lm_sensor) can retrive the information. Instead of having the package level hwmon code in coretemp, I write a seperate driver pkgtemp because: First, package level thermal sensors include not only sensors for each core, but also sensors for uncore, memory controller or other components in the package. Logically it will be clear to have a seperate hwmon driver for package level hwmon to monitor wider range of sensors in a package. Merging package thermal driver into core thermal driver doesn't make sense and may mislead. Secondly, merging the two drivers together may cause coding mess. It's easier to include various package level sensors info if more sensor information is implemented. Coretemp code needs to consider a lot of legacy machine cases. Pkgtemp code only considers platform starting from Sandy Bridge. On a 1Sx4Cx2T Sandy Bridge platform, lm-sensors dumps the pkgtemp and coretemp: pkgtemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter physical id 0: +33.0°C (high = +79.0°C, crit = +99.0°C) coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +32.0°C (high = +79.0°C, crit = +99.0°C) coretemp-isa-0001 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 1: +32.0°C (high = +79.0°C, crit = +99.0°C) coretemp-isa-0002 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 2: +32.0°C (high = +79.0°C, crit = +99.0°C) coretemp-isa-0003 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 3: +32.0°C (high = +79.0°C, crit = +99.0°C) [ hpa: folded v3 patch removing improper global variable "SHOW" ] Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com> LKML-Reference: <1280448826-12004-3-git-send-email-fenghua.yu@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: H.

No actual users beyond the maintainer reported this breakage. Patches were sent and most of the fixes were accepted but the discussion around how to do a few remaining issues cleanly fizzled out with no resolution and the code remained broken. In the v2.6.30 x86 tree development cycle 32-bit subarch support has been reworked and removed - and the Voyager code, beyond the build problems already known, needs serious and significant changes and probably a rewrite to support it. CONFIG_X86_VOYAGER has been marked BROKEN then. The maintainer has been notified but no patches have been sent so far to fix it. While all other subarchs have been converted to the new scheme, voyager is still broken. We'd prefer to receive patches which clean up the current situation in a constructive way, but even in case of removal there is no obstacle to add that support back after the issues have been sorted out in a mutually acceptable fashion. So remove this inactive code for now. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Measurements indicate that DISCONTIGMEM has a higher overhead than sparsemem. And FLATMEMs benefits are minimal. So I think its best to simply standardize on sparsemem. Results of page allocator tests (test can be had via git from slab git tree branch tests) Measurements in cycle counts. 1000 allocations were performed and then the average cycle count was calculated.

* x86 gart: rename CONFIG_IOMMU to CONFIG_GART_IOMMUJoerg Roedel2007-10-29

* x86: move defconfig files for i386 and x86_64 to x86Sam Ravnborg2007-10-25
With some small changes to kconfig makefile we can now locate the defconfig files for i386 and x86_64 in the configs/ subdirectory under x86. make ARCH=i386 defconfig and make defconfig works as expected also after this change. But arch maintainers shall now update a defconfig file in the configs/ directory. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
