2009-10-13sparc64: Set IRQF_DISABLED on LDC channel IRQs.David S. Miller
With lots of virtual devices it's easy to generate a lot of events and chew up the kernel IRQ stack. Reported-by: hyl <heyongli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-10-12sparc64: Fix D-cache flushing on swapin from SW devices.David S. Miller
Thanks to tip form ARM folks and Russell King. 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.

2009-10-06perf_event: Provide vmalloc() based mmap() backingPeter Zijlstra
Some architectures such as Sparc, ARM and MIPS (basically everything with flush_dcache_page()) need to deal with dcache aliases by carefully placing pages in both kernel and user maps. These architectures typically have to use vmalloc_user() for this. However, on other architectures, vmalloc() is not needed and has the downsides of being more restricted and slower than regular allocations.

2009-09-29sparc64: implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocatorTejun Heo
Implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator as a fallback to the embedding allocator. The next patch will make the embedding allocator check distances between units to determine whether it fits within the vmalloc area so that this fallback can be used on such cases. sparc64 currently has relatively small vmalloc area which makes it impossible to create any dynamic chunks on certain configurations leading to percpu allocation failures. This and the next patch should allow those configurations to keep working until proper solution is found. While at it, mark pcpu_cpu_distance() with __init.

2009-09-23BUILD_BUG_ON(): fix it and a couple of bogus uses of itJan Beulich
gcc permitting variable length arrays makes the current construct used for BUILD_BUG_ON() useless, as that doesn't produce any diagnostic if the controlling expression isn't really constant. Instead, this patch makes it so that a bit field gets used here. Consequently, those uses where the condition isn't really constant now also need fixing. Note that in the gfp.h, kmemcheck.h, and virtio_config.h cases MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON() really just serves documentation purposes - even if the expression is compile time constant (__builtin_constant_p() yields true), the array is still deemed of variable length by gcc, and hence the whole expression doesn't have the intended effect.

2009-09-22mm: add MAP_HUGETLB for mmaping pseudo-anonymous huge page regionsArnd Bergmann
Add a flag for mmap that will be used to request a huge page region that will look like anonymous memory to user space. This is accomplished by using a file on the internal vfsmount. MAP_HUGETLB is a modifier of MAP_ANONYMOUS and so must be specified with it. The region will behave the same as a MAP_ANONYMOUS region using small pages. The patch also adds the MAP_STACK flag, which was previously defined only on some architectures but not on others. Since MAP_STACK is meant to be a hint only, architectures can define it without assigning a specific meaning to it.

2009-09-21perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance EventsIngo Molnar
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> reported: Bash 4 filters out variables which contain a dot in them. This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds. This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile, or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh) Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script. This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where it is used. Notes for the different architectures touched: arm - we use an already exported symbol cris - we use a config symbol aleady available [Not build tested] mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it.

Sysbench thinks SD_BALANCE_WAKE is too agressive and kbuild doesn't really mind too much, SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE picks up most of the slack. On a dual socket, quad core, dual thread nehalem system: sysbench (--num_threads=16): SD_BALANCE_WAKE-: 13982 tx/s SD_BALANCE_WAKE+: 15688 tx/s kbuild (-j16): SD_BALANCE_WAKE-: 47.648295846 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.312% ) SD_BALANCE_WAKE+: 47.608607360 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.026% ) (same within noise) Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-09-16sparc: Kill PROM console driver.David S. Miller
Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it in any situation. Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary. If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of depending upon this crutch to save us. We've been able to take care of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500) so there are no excuses. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-09-15sched: Merge select_task_rq_fair() and sched_balance_self()Peter Zijlstra
The problem with wake_idle() is that is doesn't respect things like cpu_power, which means it doesn't deal well with SMT nor the recent RT interaction. To cure this, it needs to do what sched_balance_self() does, which leads to the possibility of merging select_task_rq_fair() and sched_balance_self(). Modify sched_balance_self() to: - update_shares() when walking up the domain tree, (it only called it for the top domain, but it should have done this anyway), which allows us to remove this ugly bit from try_to_wake_up(). - do wake_affine() on the smallest domain that contains both this (the waking) and the prev (the wakee) cpu for WAKE invocations. Then use the top-down balance steps it had to replace wake_idle(). This leads to the dissapearance of SD_WAKE_BALANCE and SD_WAKE_IDLE_FAR, with SD_WAKE_IDLE replaced with SD_BALANCE_WAKE. SD_WAKE_AFFINE needs SD_BALANCE_WAKE to be effective. Touch all topology bits to replace the old with new SD flags -- platforms might need re-tuning, enabling SD_BALANCE_WAKE conditionally on a NUMA distance seems like a good additional feature, magny-core and small nehalem systems would want this enabled, systems with slow interconnects would not.
