| * PCI/x86: fix up PCI stuff so that PCI_GOANY supports OLPCAndres Salomon2008-06-051-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, one would have to specifically choose CONFIG_OLPC and CONFIG_PCI_GOOLPC in order to enable PCI_OLPC. That doesn't really work for distro kernels, so this patch allows one to choose CONFIG_OLPC and CONFIG_PCI_GOANY in order to build in OLPC support in a generic kernel (as requested by Robert Millan). This also moves GOOLPC before GOANY in the menuconfig list. Finally, make pci_access_init return early if we detect OLPC hardware. There's no need to continue probing stuff, and pci_pcbios_init specifically trashes our settings (we didn't run into that before because PCI_GOANY wasn't supported).

| * Kconfig: introduce ARCH_DEFCONFIG to DEFCONFIG_LISTSam Ravnborg2008-05-251-10/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | init/Kconfig contains a list of configs that are searched for if 'make *config' are used with no .config present. Extend this list to look at the config identified by ARCH_DEFCONFIG. With this change we now try the defconfig targets last.

* | ftrace: add have dynamic ftrace config for archsSteven Rostedt2008-05-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that ftrace is being ported to other architectures, it has become apparent that DYNAMIC_FTRACE is dependent on whether or not that architecture implements dynamic ftrace. FTRACE itself may be ported to an architecture without porting dynamic ftrace. This patch adds HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE to allow architectures to port ftrace without having to also port the dynamic aspect as well.

* | ftrace: add basic support for gcc profiler instrumentationArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2008-05-231-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If CONFIG_FTRACE is selected and /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is set to a non-zero value the ftrace routine will be called everytime we enter a kernel function that is not marked with the "notrace" attribute. The ftrace routine will then call a registered function if a function happens to be registered. [ This code has been highly hacked by Steven Rostedt and Ingo Molnar, so don't blame Arnaldo for all of this ;-) ] Update: It is now possible to register more than one ftrace function. If only one ftrace function is registered, that will be the function that ftrace calls directly. If more than one function is registered, then ftrace will call a function that will loop through the functions to call.

* x86: use defconfigs from x86/configs/*Sam Ravnborg2008-04-301-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> reported: In 2.6.23, if you unpacked a kernel source tarball and then ran "make menuconfig" you'd be presented with this message: # using defaults found in arch/i386/defconfig and the default options would be set. The same thing in 2.6.24 does not give you any "using defaults" message, and the default config options within menuconfig are rather blank (e.g. no PCI support). You can work around this by explicitly running "make defconfig" before menuconfig, but it would be nice to have the behaviour the way it was for 2.6.23 (and the way it still is for other archs). Fixed by adding a x86 specific defconfig list to Kconfig.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for OLPC XO hardware. Open Firmware on XOs don't contain the VSA, so it is necessary to emulate the PCI BARs in the kernel. This also adds functionality for running EC commands, and a CONFIG_OLPC. A number of OLPC drivers depend upon CONFIG_OLPC. olpc_ec_timeout is a hack to work around Embedded Controller bugs.

| * x86: convert cpumask_of_cpu macro to allocated arrayMike Travis2008-04-191-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Here is a simple patch to use an allocated array of cpumasks to represent cpumask_of_cpu() instead of constructing one on the stack. It's based on the Kconfig option "HAVE_CPUMASK_OF_CPU_MAP" which is currently only set for x86_64 SMP. Otherwise the the existing cpumask_of_cpu() is used but has been changed to produce an lvalue so a pointer to it can be used. Cc: H.

* x86: remove quicklistsThomas Gleixner2008-03-111-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | quicklists cause a serious memory leak on 32-bit x86, as documented at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9991 the reason is that the quicklist pool is a special-purpose cache that grows out of proportion. It is not accounted for anywhere and users have no way to even realize that it's the quicklists that are causing RAM usage spikes. It was supposed to be a relatively small pool, but as demonstrated by KOSAKI Motohiro, they can grow as large as: Quicklists: 1194304 kB given how much trouble this code has caused historically, and given that Andrew objected to its introduction on x86 (years ago), the best option at this point is to remove them.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add CONFIG_HAVE_KRETPROBES to the arch/<arch>/Kconfig file for relevant architectures with kprobes support. This facilitates easy handling of in-kernel modules (like samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c) that depend on kretprobes being present in the kernel. Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for helping make the patch more lean. Per Mathieu's suggestion, added CONFIG_KRETPROBES and fixed up dependencies.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's always been broken, but recent fixes actually made it do something, and now the brokenness shows up as the resulting kernel simply not working at all. So it used to be that you could enable this config option, and it just didn't do anything. Now we'd better stop people from enabling it by mistake, since it _does_ do something, but does it so badly as to be unusable. Code to actually make it work is pending, but incomplete and won't be merged into 2.6.25 in any case.

* | cpuidle: build fix for non-x86Venki Pallipadi2008-02-091-0/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last posted version of this patch gave compile error on IA64. So, here goes yet another rewrite of the patch. Convert cpu_idle_wait() to cpuidle_kick_cpus() which is SMP-only, and gives error on non supported CPU. Changes from last patch sent by Kevin: Moved the definition of kick_cpus back to cpuidle.c from cpuidle.h: * Having it in .h gives #error on archs which includes the header file without actually having CPU_IDLE configured. To make it work in .h, we need one more #ifdef around that code which makes it messy. * Also, the function is only called from one file. So, it can be in declared statically in .c rather than making it available to everyone who includes the .h file.

* SLUB: Alternate fast paths using cmpxchg_localChristoph Lameter2008-02-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide an alternate implementation of the SLUB fast paths for alloc and free using cmpxchg_local. The cmpxchg_local fast path is selected for arches that have CONFIG_FAST_CMPXCHG_LOCAL set. An arch should only set CONFIG_FAST_CMPXCHG_LOCAL if the cmpxchg_local is faster than an interrupt enable/disable sequence. This is known to be true for both x86 platforms so set FAST_CMPXCHG_LOCAL for both arches. Currently another requirement for the fastpath is that the kernel is compiled without preemption. The restriction will go away with the introduction of a new per cpu allocator and new per cpu operations. The advantages of a cmpxchg_local based fast path are: 1. Potentially lower cycle count (30%-60% faster) 2. There is no need to disable and enable interrupts on the fast path. Currently interrupts have to be disabled and enabled on every slab operation. This is likely avoiding a significant percentage of interrupt off / on sequences in the kernel. 3. The disposal of freed slabs can occur with interrupts enabled. The alternate path is realized using #ifdef's. Several attempts to do the same with macros and inline functions resulted in a mess (in particular due to the strange way that local_interrupt_save() handles its argument and due to the need to define macros/functions that sometimes disable interrupts and sometimes do something else).
