2009-09-20loongson: fix cut-and-paste mis-mergeLinus Torvalds
Ingo points out that I screwed up when merging the 'timers-for-linus' branch in commit a03fdb7612874834d6847107198712d18b5242c7. A bit too much copy-and-pasting caused the end result to have an extraneous 'return' in the middle of an expression. That was obviously bogus. Blush.

2009-09-19Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissionsKay Sievers
This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero, random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no other userspace process applies the expected permissions. This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2009-09-19tracing, x86, cpuidle: Move the end point of a C state in the power tracerArjan van de Ven
The "end of a C state" trace point currently happens before the code runs that corrects the TSC for having stopped during idle. The result of this is that the timestamp of the end-of-C-state event is garbage on cpus where the TSC stops during idle. This patch moves the end point of the C state to after the timekeeping engine of the kernel has been corrected.

This patch converts the existing power tracer into an event tracer, so that power events (C states and frequency changes) can be tracked via "perf".

2009-09-18frv: clean up linker script using new linker script macros.Nelson Elhage
This is largely a straightforward conversion. The patch results in fewer output sections, and some data being reordered, but should have no functional impact. Also, note that this patch moves some data (namely, init_task and cacheline-aligned) inside [_sdata,_edata]. Because frv already builds using -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections, we can't use BSS_SECTION or RW_DATA_SECTION yet, since they do not currently include the required .bss.* and .data.* sections.

2009-09-18x86, perf_counter, bts: Optimize BTS overflow handlingMarkus Metzger
Draining the BTS buffer on a buffer overflow interrupt takes too long resulting in a kernel lockup when tracing the kernel. Restructure perf_counter sampling into sample creation and sample output. Prepare a single reference sample for BTS sampling and update the from and to address fields when draining the BTS buffer. Drain the entire BTS buffer between a single perf_output_begin() / perf_output_end() pair.

2009-09-17x86, pat: don't use rb-tree based lookup in reserve_memtype()Suresh Siddha
Recent enhancement of rb-tree based lookup exposed a bug with the lookup mechanism in the reserve_memtype() which ensures that there are no conflicting memtype requests for the memory range. memtype_rb_search() returns an entry which has a start address <= new start address. And from here we traverse the linear linked list to check if there any conflicts with the existing mappings. As the rbtree is based on the start address of the memory range, it is quite possible that we have several overlapped mappings whose start address is much less than new requested start but the end is >= new requested end. This results in conflicting memtype mappings. Same bug exists with the old code which uses cached_entry from where we traverse the linear linked list. But the new rb-tree code exposes this bug fairly easily. For now, don't use the memtype_rb_search() and always start the search from the head of linear linked list in reserve_memtype(). Linear linked list for most of the systems grow's to few 10's of entries(as we track memory type of RAM pages using struct page). So we should be ok for now. We still retain the rbtree and use it to speed up free_memtype() which doesn't have the same bug(as we know what exactly we are searching for in free_memtype). Also use list_for_each_entry_from() in free_memtype() so that we start the search from rb-tree lookup result.

2009-09-17MIPS: Shrink the size of tlb handlerWu Fei
By combining swapper_pg_dir and module_pg_dir, several if conditions can be eliminated from the tlb exception handler. The reason they can be combined is that, the effective virtual address of vmalloc returned is at the bottom, and of module_alloc returned is at the top. It also fixes the bug in vmalloc(), which happens when its return address is not covered by the first pgd. Signed-off-by: Wu Fei <at.wufei@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2009-09-17MIPS: Alchemy: get rid of allow_au1k_waitManuel Lauss
Eliminate the 'allow_au1k_wait' variable. MIPS kernel installs the Alchemy-specific wait code before timer initialization; if the C0 timer must be used for timekeeping the wait function is set to NULL which means no wait implementation is available. As a sideeffect, the 'wait instruction available' output in /proc/cpuinfo now correctly indicates whether 'wait' is usable. Run-tested on DB1200.

2009-09-17MIPS: Allow kernel use of LL/SC to be separate from the presence of LL/SC.David Daney
On some CPUs, it is more efficient to disable and enable interrupts in the kernel rather than use ll/sc for atomic operations. But if we were to set cpu_has_llsc to false, we would break the userspace futex interface (in asm/futex.h). We separate the two concepts, with a new predicate kernel_uses_llsc, that lets us disable the kernel's use of ll/sc while still allowing the futex code to use it. Also there were a couple of cases in bitops.h where we were using ll/sc unconditionally even if cpu_has_llsc were false.
