2011-01-20kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERTDavid Rientjes
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than only small devices. This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.

2011-01-17powerpc: perf: Fix frequency calculation for overflowing countersAnton Blanchard
When profiling a benchmark that is almost 100% userspace, I noticed some wildly inaccurate profiles that showed almost all time spent in the kernel. Closer examination shows we were programming a tiny number of cycles into the PMU after each overflow (about ~200 away from the next overflow). This gets us stuck in a loop which we eventually break out of by throttling the PMU (there are regular throttle/unthrottle events in the log). It looks like we aren't setting event->hw.last_period to something same and the frequency to period calculations in perf are going haywire. With the following patch we find the correct period after a few interrupts and stay there. I also see no more throttle events.

2011-01-13rapidio: fix hang on RapidIO doorbell queue full conditionThomas Taranowski
In fsl_rio_dbell_handler() the code currently simply acknowledges the QFI queue full interrupt, but does nothing to resolve the queue full condition. Instead, it jumps to the end of the isr. When a queue full condition occurs, the isr is then re-entered immediately and continually, forever. The fix is to just fall through and read out current doorbell entries.

2011-01-11powerpc/pseries: Fix VPHN build errors on non-SMP systemsJesse Larrew
The header asm/hvcall.h was previously included indirectly via smp.h. On non-SMP systems, however, these declarations are excluded and the build breaks. This is easily fixed by including asm/hvcall.h directly. The VPHN feature is only meaningful on NUMA systems that implement the SPLPAR option, so exclude the VPHN code on systems without SPLPAR enabled. Also, expose unmap_cpu_from_node() on systems with SPLPAR enabled, even if CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is disabled. Lastly, map_cpu_to_node() is now needed by VPHN to manipulate the node masks after boot time, so remove the __cpuinit annotation to fix a section mismatch.

2011-01-07fs: icache RCU free inodesNick Piggin
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow: - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must. - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking. - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the page lock to follow page->mapping. The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts kicking over, this increases to about 20%. In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller. The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking, so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I doubt it will be a problem. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
2011-01-07fs: dcache rationalise dget variantsNick Piggin
dget_locked was a shortcut to avoid the lazy lru manipulation when we already held dcache_lock (lru manipulation was relatively cheap at that point). However, how that the lru lock is an innermost one, we never hold it at any caller, so the lock cost can now be avoided. We already have well working lazy dcache LRU, so it should be fine to defer LRU manipulations to scan time. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>

The therm_pm72 driver, used on the PowerMac G5 range, cannot be auto-loaded, since the driver itself creates both the device node and the driver instance. Moving the device node creation to the platform setup code and adding the necessary MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() information allows the driver to be automatically loaded by udev on any semi-modern distribution. It "fixes" a major source of problem on G5 machines where the driver wasn't explicitely loaded by default, and the system would automatically shutdown under load. Tested on an Xserve G5.

2010-12-09powerpc: Disable VPHN polling during a suspend operationJesse Larrew
Tie the polling mechanism into the ibm,suspend-me rtas call to stop/restart polling before/after a suspend, hibernate, migrate, or checkpoint restart operation. This ensures that the system has a chance to disable the polling if the partition is migrated to a system that does not support VPHN (and vice versa).

2010-12-09powerpc/pseries: Poll VPA for topology changes and update NUMA mapsJesse Larrew
This patch sets a timer during boot that will periodically poll the associativity change counters in the VPA. When a change in associativity is detected, it retrieves the new associativity domain information via the H_HOME_NODE_ASSOCIATIVITY hcall and updates the NUMA node maps and sysfs entries accordingly. Note that since the ibm,associativity device tree property does not exist on configurations with both NUMA and SPLPAR enabled, no device tree updates are necessary.
