2008-12-12x86: kill #ifdef for exit_idle()Hiroshi Shimamoto
Impact: cleanup Introduce helper inline function in arch/x86/include/asm/idle.h to remove #ifdefs around exit_idle(). Signed-off-by: Hiroshi Shimamoto <h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-12-12x86: uaccess: return value of __{get|put}_user() can be intHiroshi Shimamoto
Impact: cleanup The type of return value of __{get|put}_user() can be int. There is no user to refer the return value of __{get|put}_user() as long. This reduces code size a bit on 64-bit. $ size vmlinux.* text data bss dec hex filename 4509265 479988 673588 5662841 566879 vmlinux.new 4511462 479988 673588 5665038 56710e vmlinux.old Signed-off-by: Hiroshi Shimamoto <h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-12-12tracing/function-graph-tracer: annotate do_IRQ and smp_apic_timer_interruptFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: move most important x86 irq entry-points to a separate subsection Annotate do_IRQ and smp_apic_timer_interrupt to put them into the .irqentry.text subsection. These function will so be recognized as hardirq entrypoints for the function-graph-tracer. We could also annotate other irq entries but the others are far less important but they can be added on request.

2008-12-12tracing/function-graph-tracer: add a new .irqentry.text sectionFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: let the function-graph-tracer be aware of the irq entrypoints Add a new .irqentry.text section to store the irq entrypoints functions inside the same section. This way, the tracer will be able to signal an interrupts triggering on output by recognizing these entrypoints. Also, make this section recordable for dynamic tracing.

2008-12-12x86: soften multi-BAR mapping sanity check warning messageIngo Molnar
Impact: make debug warning less scary The ioremap() time multi-BAR map warning has been causing false positives: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/10/432 http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/11/136 So make it less scary by making it once-per-boot, by making it KERN_INFO and by adding this text: "Info: mapping multiple BARs.

2008-12-08tracing/function-graph-tracer: append the tracing_graph_flagFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: Provide a way to pause the function graph tracer As suggested by Steven Rostedt, the previous patch that prevented from spinlock function tracing shouldn't use the raw_spinlock to fix it. It's much better to follow lockdep with normal spinlock, so this patch adds a new flag for each task to make the function graph tracer able to be paused. We also can send an ftrace_printk whithout worrying of the irrelevant traced spinlock during insertion.

2008-12-08tracing/function-graph-tracer: introduce __notrace_funcgraph to filter ↵Frederic Weisbecker
special functions Impact: trace more functions When the function graph tracer is configured, three more files are not traced to prevent only four functions to be traced. And this impacts the normal function tracer too. arch/x86/kernel/process_64/32.c: I had crashes when I let this file traced. After some debugging, I saw that the "current" task point was changed inside__swtich_to(), ie: "write_pda(pcurrent, next_p);" inside process_64.c Since the tracer store the original return address of the function inside current, we had crashes. Only __switch_to() has to be excluded from tracing. kernel/module.c and kernel/extable.c: Because of a function used internally by the function graph tracer: __kernel_text_address() To let the other functions inside these files to be traced, this patch introduces the __notrace_funcgraph function prefix which is __notrace if function graph tracer is configured and nothing if not.

2008-12-08x86: MSI start irq numbering from nr_irqs_gsiYinghai Lu
Impact: sanitize MSI irq number ordering from top-down to bottom-up Increase new MSI IRQs starting from nr_irqs_gsi (which is somewhere below 256), instead of decreasing from NR_IRQS. (The latter method can result in confusingly high IRQ numbers - if NR_CPUS is set to a high value and NR_IRQS scales up to a high value.)

2008-12-08sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changesYinghai Lu
Impact: new feature Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case. To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of irq_desc pointers. When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc, this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls request_irq()). This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

2008-12-08x86: change static allocation of trampoline areaRafael J. Wysocki
Impact: fix trampoline sizing bug, save space While debugging a suspend-to-RAM related issue it occured to me that if the trampoline code had grown past 4 KB, we would have been allocating too little memory for it, since the 4 KB size of the trampoline is hardcoded into arch/x86/kernel/e820.c . Change that by making the kernel compute the trampoline size and allocate as much memory as necessary. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-12-05[CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod.Matthew Garrett
p4-clockmod has a long history of abuse. It pretends to be a CPU frequency scaling driver, even though it doesn't actually change the CPU frequency, but instead just modulates the frequency with wait-states. The biggest misconception is that when running at the lower 'frequency' p4-clockmod is saving power. This isn't the case, as workloads running slower take longer to complete, preventing the CPU from entering deep C states. However p4-clockmod does have a purpose. It can prevent overheating. Having it hooked up to the cpufreq interfaces is the wrong way to achieve cooling however. It should instead be hooked up to ACPI. This diff introduces a means for a cpufreq driver to register with the cpufreq core, but not present a sysfs interface.

2008-12-05[CPUFREQ] clean up speedstep-centrino and reduce cpumask_t usageRusty Russell
Impact: cleanup 1) The #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU seems unnecessary these days. 2) The loop can simply skip over offline cpus, rather than creating a tmp mask. 3) set_mask is set to either a single cpu or all online cpus in a policy. Since it's just used for set_cpus_allowed(), any offline cpus in a policy don't matter, so we can just use cpumask_of_cpu() or the policy->cpus.

2008-12-04x86: change thread_info's flag field back to 32 bitsJoe Korty
Impact: pack struct thread_info more tightly Change x86_64's thread_info 'flags' field back to __u32. This was changed to 'unsigned long' when the thread_info*.h for i386 and x86_64 were merged. Change it back. We can do this as only 27 bits of 'flags' are actually used. This change actually packs down thread_info by 64 bits: 32 bits are saved by the smaller flags, and 32 bits are saved by the following 'mm_segment_t field' becoming naturally 64-bit aligned.
