| * tracing: Move syscalls metadata handling from arch to coreFrederic Weisbecker2009-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of the syscalls metadata processing is done from arch. But these operations are mostly generic accross archs. Especially now that we have a common variable name that expresses the number of syscalls supported by an arch: NR_syscalls, the only remaining bits that need to reside in arch is the syscall nr to addr translation. v2: Compare syscalls symbols only after the "sys" prefix so that we avoid spurious mismatches with archs that have syscalls wrappers, in which case syscalls symbols have "SyS" prefixed aliases.

| * function-graph/x86: Replace unbalanced ret with jmpSteven Rostedt2009-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function graph tracer replaces the return address with a hook to trace the exit of the function call. This hook will finish by returning to the real location the function should return to. But the current implementation uses a ret to jump to the real return location. This causes a imbalance between calls and ret. That is the original function does a call, the ret goes to the handler and then the handler does a ret without a matching call. Although the function graph tracer itself still breaks the branch predictor by replacing the original ret, by using a second ret and causing an imbalance, it breaks the predictor even more. This patch replaces the ret with a jmp to keep the calls and ret balanced. I tested this on one box and it showed a 1.7% increase in performance. Another box only showed a small 0.3% increase. But no box that I tested this on showed a decrease in performance by making this change.

If flush_dcache_page() occurs on a swapin it will have a mapping and we'll try to defer the flush by setting the dirty bit. But when it hits update_dcache_page() we won't flush because the page won't have a mapping any more. So remove the mapping requirement in flush_dcache(). Signed-off-by: David S.

This fixes up the case when a page mapping disappears between the flush_dcache_page() call (when PG_dcache_dirty is set for the page) and the update_mmu_cache() call -- such as in the case of swap cache being freed early. This kills off the mapping test in update_mmu_cache() and switches to simply testing for PG_dcache_dirty.

If device IRQs come in at a high frequency, this could cause a performance regression. The commit being reverted here purely 'fixed' the reported latency as a side effect, because CPUs were being moved out of idle more often.

For historical reasons irq enable/disable/save/restore had special calling sequences to make them more efficient. With the more recent introduction of higher-level and more general optimisations this is no longer necessary so we can just use the normal PVOP_ macros. This fixes some residual bugs in the old implementations which left edx liable to inadvertent clobbering. Also, fix some bugs in __PVOP_VCALLEESAVE which were revealed by actual use.

The correct behavior would be to force the flush based on dcache_dirty bit only. One of the cases where present logic would be a problem is when a RAM based block device[1] is used as a swap disk. In this case, we would have in-memory data corruption as shown in steps below: do_swap_page() { - Allocate a new page (if not already in swap cache) - Issue read from swap disk - Block driver issues flush_dcache_page() - flush_dcache_page() simply sets PG_dcache_dirty bit and does not actually issue a flush since this page has no user space mapping yet. - Now, if swap disk is almost full, this newly read page is removed from swap cache and corrsponding swap slot is freed. - Map this page anonymously in user space. - update_mmu_cache() - Since this page does not have kernel mapping (its not in page/swap cache and is mapped anonymously), it does not issue dcache flush even if dcache_dirty bit is set by flush_dcache_page() above. <user now gets stale data since dcache was never flushed> } Same problem exists on mips too. [1] example: - brd (RAM based block device) - ramzswap (RAM based compressed swap device) Signed-off-by: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Many of these internal clocks can be stopped to save power. This introduces a "parent" hierarchy for the clocks so that the users count can be correctly tracked for power management. The "parent" for the video clock can either be one of the PLL outputs or the external oscillator. In order to correctly track the "parent" for the video clock calc_clk_div() needed to be modified. It now returns an error code if the desired rate cannot be generated.

This allows any gpio pin do be used for the sda and scl pins. It also allows the platform to specify the udelay and timeout. 2) Program the gpio configuration register to enable/disable the open drain drivers. Note that this really only works if the sda and scl pins are set to EP93XX_GPIO_LINE_EEDAT and EP93XX_GPIO_LINE_EECLK. 3) Update the edb93xx.c platform init to use the new support.
