* [ARM] 3692/1: ARM: coswitch irq handling to the generic implementationThomas Gleixner2006-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Thomas Gleixner From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Switch the ARM irq core handling to the generic implementation. The ARM specific header files now contain mostly migration stubs and helper macros. Note that each machine type must be converted after this step seperately. This was seperated out from the patch for easier review. The main changes for the machine type code is the conversion of the type handlers to a 'type flow' and 'chip' model. This affects only the multiplex interrupt handlers. A conversion macro needs to be added to those implementations, which defines the data structure which is registered by the set_irq_chained_handler() macro. Some minor fixups of include files and the conversion of data structure access is necessary all over the place. The mostly macro based conversion was provided to allow an easy migration of the existing implementations. The code compiles on all defconfigs available in arch/arm/configs except those which were broken also before applying the conversion patches. The code has been boot and runtime tested on most ARM platforms.

* | | | | [PATCH] uml: fix biarch gcc build on x86_64Jeff Dike2006-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I run an x86_64 kernel with i386 userspace (Ubuntu Dapper) and decided to try out UML today. I found that UML wasn't quite aware of biarch compilers (which Ubuntu i386 ships). A fix similar to what was done for x86_64 should probably be committed (see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113425940204010&w=2). Without the FLAGS changes, the build will fail at a number of places and without the LINK change, the final link will fail.

The problem was that the stderr console, which is intended to dump printk output to the terminal before the regular console is initialized, isn't a tty, and so can't make /dev/console operational. However, since it is registered first, the normal console, when it is registered, doesn't become the preferred console, and isn't attached to /dev/console. Thus, /dev/console is never operational. This patch makes the stderr console unregister itself in an initcall, which is late enough that the normal console is registered. When that happens, the normal console will become the preferred console and will be able to run /dev/console.

They have no essential function for the VM. We use a simple increment of per cpu variables. In order to avoid the most severe races we disable preempt. Preempt does not prevent the race between an increment and an interrupt handler incrementing the same statistics counter. However, that race is exceedingly rare, we may only loose one increment or so and there is no requirement (at least not in kernel) that the vm event counters have to be accurate. In the non preempt case this results in a simple increment for each counter. For many architectures this will be reduced by the compiler to a single instruction. This single instruction is atomic for i386 and x86_64. And therefore even the rare race condition in an interrupt is avoided for both architectures in most cases. The patchset also adds an off switch for embedded systems that allows a building of linux kernels without these counters. The implementation of these counters is through inline code that hopefully results in only a single instruction increment instruction being emitted (i386, x86_64) or in the increment being hidden though instruction concurrency (EPIC architectures such as ia64 can get that done). Benefits: - VM event counter operations usually reduce to a single inline instruction on i386 and x86_64. - No interrupt disable, only preempt disable for the preempt case. Preempt disable can also be avoided by moving the counter into a spinlock. - Handling is similar to zoned VM counters. - Simple and easily extendable. - Can be omitted to reduce memory use for embedded use.

Looping over all processors is avoided during writeback state determination. The counter aggregation for nr_dirty had to be undone in the NFS layer since we summed up the page counts from multiple zones. Someone more familiar with NFS should probably review what I have done.

* | | | | [PATCH] zoned vm counters: conversion of nr_pagecache to per zone counterChristoph Lameter2006-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently a single atomic variable is used to establish the size of the page cache in the whole machine. The zoned VM counters have the same method of implementation as the nr_pagecache code but also allow the determination of the pagecache size per zone. Remove the special implementation for nr_pagecache and make it a zoned counter named NR_FILE_PAGES. Updates of the page cache counters are always performed with interrupts off. We can therefore use the __ variant here.

We take the nr_mapped field out of the page state structure and define a new per zone counter named NR_FILE_MAPPED (the anonymous pages will be split off from NR_MAPPED in the next patch). We replace the use of nr_mapped in various kernel locations. This avoids the looping over all processors in try_to_free_pages(), writeback, reclaim (swap + zone reclaim).
