2015-02-13rcu: make RCU_BOOST default on RTSebastian Andrzej Siewior
Since it is no longer invoked from the softirq people run into OOM more often if the priority of the RCU thread is too low. Making boosting default on RT should help in those case and it can be switched off if someone knows better.

I saw various other random bugs that all had to with the softirq lock and plist. As plist needs to be initialized before it is used I investigated how this lock is initialized. It's initialized with: void __init softirq_early_init(void) { local_irq_lock_init(local_softirq_lock); } Where: #define local_irq_lock_init(lvar) \ do { \ int __cpu; \ for_each_possible_cpu(__cpu) \ spin_lock_init(&per_cpu(lvar, __cpu).lock); \ } while (0) As the softirq lock is a local_irq_lock, which is a per_cpu lock, the initialization is done to all per_cpu versions of the lock. But lets look at where the softirq_early_init() is called from. In init/main.c: start_kernel() /* * Interrupts are still disabled. Do necessary setups, then * enable them */ softirq_early_init(); tick_init(); boot_cpu_init(); page_address_init(); printk(KERN_NOTICE "%s", linux_banner); setup_arch(&command_line); mm_init_owner(&init_mm, &init_task); mm_init_cpumask(&init_mm); setup_command_line(command_line); setup_nr_cpu_ids(); setup_per_cpu_areas(); smp_prepare_boot_cpu(); /* arch-specific boot-cpu hooks */ One of the first things that is called is the initialization of the softirq lock. But if you look further down, we see the per_cpu areas have not been set up yet. Thus initializing a local_irq_lock() before the per_cpu section is set up, may not work as it is initializing the per cpu locks before the per cpu exists. By moving the softirq_early_init() right after setup_per_cpu_areas(), the kernel boots fine.

2013-08-15modules: do not depend on kconfig to set 'modules' option to symbol MODULESYann E. MORIN
Currently, the MODULES symbol is special-cased in different places in the kconfig language. For example, if no symbol is defined to enable tristates, then kconfig looks up for a symbol named 'MODULES', and forces the 'modules' option onto that symbol. This causes problems as such: - since MODULES is special-cased, reading the configuration with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG set will forcibly set MODULES to be 'valid' (ie. it has a valid value), when no such value was previously set. So MODULES defaults to 'n' unless it is present in KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG - other third-party projects may decide that 'MODULES' plays a different role for them This has been exposed by cset #cfa98f2e: kconfig: do not override symbols already set and reported by Stephen in: http://marc.info/?l=linux-next&m=137592137915234&w=2 As suggested by Sam, we explicitly define the MODULES symbol to be the tristate-enabler. This will allow us to drop special-casing of MODULES in the kconfig language, later. (Note: this patch is not a fix to Stephen's issue, just a first step).

tracking Now that the full dynticks subsystem only enables the context tracking on full dynticks CPUs, lets remove the dependency on CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE This dependency was a hack to enable the context tracking widely for the full dynticks susbsystem until the latter becomes able to enable it in a more CPU-finegrained fashion. Now CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE only stands for testing on archs that work on support for the context tracking while full dynticks can't be used yet due to unmet dependencies. It simulates a system where all CPUs are full dynticks so that RCU user extended quiescent states and dynticks cputime accounting can be tested on the given arch.

2013-07-14kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel filesPaul Gortmaker
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include) that don't really have a specific maintainer.
