* [PATCH] Don't use lock section for mutexes and semaphoresAndi Kleen2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | Lock sections cannot be handled by the dwarf2 unwinder. Disadvantage is a taken branch in the hot path. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
* [PATCH] x86_64: x86_64 version of the smp alternative patch.Gerd Hoffmann2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes are largely identical to the i386 version: * alternative #define are moved to the new alternative.h file. * one new elf section with pointers to the lock prefixes which can be nop'ed out for non-smp. * two new elf sections simliar to the "classic" alternatives to replace SMP code with simpler UP code. * fixup headers to use alternative.h instead of defining their own LOCK / LOCK_PREFIX macros. The patch reuses the i386 version of the alternatives code to avoid code duplication. The code in alternatives.c was shuffled around a bit to reduce the number of #ifdefs needed. It also got some tweaks needed for x86_64 (vsyscall page handling) and new features (noreplacement option which was x86_64 only up to now). Debug printk's are changed from compile-time to runtime.

* Fix mutex_trylock() copy-and-paste bug (x86, x86-64, generic mutex-dec.h)Linus Torvalds2006-01-11
| | | | | | | | | Noticed by Arjan originally on x86-64, then Ingo on x86, and finally me grepping for it in the generic version. Bad parenthesis nesting. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
