2012-08-01MIPS: Loongson 2: Sort out clock managment.Ralf Baechle
For unexplainable reasons the Loongson 2 clock API was implemented in a module so fixing this involved shifting large amounts of code around. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2012-07-26posix_types.h: Cleanup stale __NFDBITS and related definitionsJosh Boyer
Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1). This uncovered an issue with the kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include <linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>. A build failure would be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 flags to gcc. It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely. The current in-kernel uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines. Given that, we'll continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f5f ("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused macros. Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

2012-06-01new helper: signal_delivered()Al Viro
Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle: "The whole series has been sitting in -next for quite a while with no complaints. The last change to the series was before the weekend the removal of an SPI patch which Grant - even though previously acked by himself - appeared to raise objections. So I removed it until the situation is clarified. Other than that all the patches have the acks from their respective maintainers, all MIPS and x86 defconfigs are building fine and I'm not aware of any problems introduced by this series. Among the key features for this patch series is a sizable patchset for Lantiq which among other things introduces support for Lantiq's flagship product, the FALCON SOC. It also means that the opensource developers behind this patchset have overtaken Lantiq's competing inhouse development team that was working behind closed doors. Less noteworthy the ath79 patchset which adds support for a few more chip variants, cleanups and fixes. Finally the usual dose of tweaking of generic code."

2012-05-18Merge remote-tracking branch 'tip/perf/urgent' into perf/coreArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Merge reason: We are going to queue up a dependent patch: "perf tools: Move parse event automated tests to separated object" That depends on: commit e7c72d8 perf tools: Add 'G' and 'H' modifiers to event parsing Conflicts: tools/perf/builtin-stat.c Conflicted with the recent 'perf_target' patches when checking the result of perf_evsel open routines to see if a retry is needed to cope with older kernels where the exclude guest/host perf_event_attr bits were not used.

2012-05-16MIPS: Move cache setup to setup_arch().David Daney
commit 97ce2c88f9ad42e3c60a9beb9fca87abf3639faa (jump-label: initialize jump-label subsystem much earlier) breaks MIPS. The jump_label_init() call was moved before trap_init() which is where we initialize flush_icache_range(). In order to be good citizens, we move cache initialization earlier so that we don't jump through a null flush_icache_range function pointer when doing the jump label initialization.

2012-05-09perf: Pass last sampling period to perf_sample_data_init()Robert Richter
We always need to pass the last sample period to perf_sample_data_init(), otherwise the event distribution will be wrong. Thus, modifiyng the function interface with the required period as argument. So basically a pattern like this: perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL); data.period = event->hw.last_period; will now be like that: perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL, event->hw.last_period); Avoids unininitialized data.period and simplifies code.
