* Generic semaphore implementationMatthew Wilcox2008-04-172-169/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Semaphores are no longer performance-critical, so a generic C implementation is better for maintainability, debuggability and extensibility. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for fixing the lockdep warning. Thanks to Harvey Harrison for pointing out that the unlikely() was unnecessary.

* Pb1200/DBAu1200: fix bad IDE resource sizeSergei Shtylyov2008-04-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | The header files for the Pb1200/DBAu1200 boards have wrong definition for the IDE interface's decoded range length -- it should be 512 bytes according to what the IDE driver does. In addition, the IDE platform device claims 1 byte too many for its memory resource -- fix the platform code and the IDE driver in accordance.

* | [MIPS] Alchemy: work around clock misdetection on early Au1000Sergei Shtylyov2008-04-013-31/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Work around the CPU clock miscalculation on Au1000DA/HA/HB due the sys_cpupll register being write-only, i.e. actually do what the comment before cal_r4off() function advertised for years but the code failed at. This is achieved by just giving user a chance to define the clock explicitly in the board config. via CONFIG_SOC_AU1000_FREQUENCY option, defaulting to 396 MHz if the option is not given... The patch is based on the AMD's big unpublished patch, the issue seems to be an undocumented errata (or feature :-)...

* [MIPS] Handle I-cache coherency in flush_cache_range()Ralf Baechle2008-02-191-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So far flush_cache_range() did't consider the I-cache largely because it did rarely ever matter to real world code. This was working primarily because normally code and data are don't share the same pages - with the exception of MIPS16 code which uses address constants embedded between the code. The following sequence of events may break the code: o MIPS16 executable being loaded o dynamic linker relocates the address constants embedded into the code: o Uses mprotect(2) to make code pages PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE o Performs the actual relocations by writing to the pages which likely are COW. Because no PROT_EXEC is set I-cache coherence will not be considered. o Uses mprotect(2) to switch code pages back to PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC. This results in a call to flush_cache_range() which also does not consider I-caches. o => executing the page just having been relocated may now result in the I-cache getting refilled with stale data from memory.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the central patch of a cleanup series.

Together with the other patches of this series - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on <dentry,vfsmount> pairs - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed - it reduces the overall code size: without patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux with patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux This patch: Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions between crashkernel area and already used memory. This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().

* get rid of NR_OPEN and introduce a sysctl_nr_openEric Dumazet2008-02-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NR_OPEN (historically set to 1024*1024) actually forbids processes to open more than 1024*1024 handles. Unfortunatly some production servers hit the not so 'ridiculously high value' of 1024*1024 file descriptors per process. Changing NR_OPEN is not considered safe because of vmalloc space potential exhaust. This patch introduces a new sysctl (/proc/sys/fs/nr_open) wich defaults to 1024*1024, so that admins can decide to change this limit if their workload needs it.

* timerfd: new timerfd APIDavide Libenzi2008-02-054-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch: int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags); int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags, const struct itimerspec *utmr, struct itimerspec *otmr); int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr); The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid" parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME. The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not NULL). The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time. The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or {0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet. Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to exercise the new timerfd APIs: http://www.xmailserver.org/timerfd-test2.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style cleanups] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix ia64 build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix m68k build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix alpha, arm, blackfin, cris, m68k, s390, sparc and sparc64 builds] [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: fix s390] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix powerpc build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix sparc64 more] Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
