* Change most LitmusRT spinlock_t in raw_spinlock_tAndrea Bastoni2010-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adapt to new schema for spinlock: (tglx 20091217) spinlock - the weakest one, which might sleep in RT raw_spinlock - spinlock which always spins even on RT arch_spinlock - the hardware level architecture dependent implementation ---- Most probably, all the spinlocks changed by this commit will be true spinning lock (raw_spinlock) in PreemptRT (so hopefully we'll need few changes when porting Litmmus to PreemptRT). There are a couple of spinlock that the kernel still defines as spinlock_t (therefore no changes reported in this commit) that might cause us troubles: - wait_queue_t lock is defined as spinlock_t; it is used in: * fmlp.c -- sem->wait.lock * sync.c -- ts_release.wait.lock - rwlock_t used in fifo implementation in sched_trace.c * this need probably to be changed to something always spinning in RT at the expense of increased locking time. ---- This commit also fixes warnings and errors due to the need to include slab.h when using kmalloc() and friends. ---- This commit does not compile.
* Add optional dynamic assignment of tracing devices major nrAndrea Bastoni2010-05-29
| | | | | Setting FT_TASK_TRACE_MAJOR, LOG_MAJOR, FT_TRACE_MAJOR to 0 allows to have them automatically assigned by the kernel
