sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:34Z

We are going to split out of , which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder file that just maps to to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

ia64: ensure exception table search users include extable.h

2017-01-24T17:41:45Z

We start with a delete of a duplicate prototype in asm/exception.h that no longer needs to exist, as it duplicates content in extable.h and since that header is so small, there is no point trying to avoid using it. Then we make sure anyone using search_exception_tables directly or via the ia64_done_with_exception macro has included extable.h In the process, we remove an include of moduleloader.h that was apparently not really required; it would have been fetching in module.h and hence the previous location of the exception search function prototypes, but we need not rely on that anymore.

ia64: move ia64_done_with_exception out of asm/uaccess.h

2017-01-24T17:41:45Z

Move ia64_done_with_exception out of asm/uaccess.h (which is widely used) and into asm/exception.h (like ARM has) and then ensure the few callers of it include this new header. Most of the other C content in asm files is implemented in macro form. So we do that conversion at the same time as the move. There are two C exception prototypes that move along with the macro. One of them will become redundant when we switch over to using the instead of header in a subsequent commit. Also relocate a couple of the automated asm --> linux uaccess conversions to preserve the linux and asm independent grouping, since we are in the file at that location anyway.

Replace with globally

ia64: Replace __get_cpu_var uses

2014-08-26T17:45:52Z

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y); 2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]); int *x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y); 3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu variable. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int x = __get_cpu_var(y) Converts to int x = __this_cpu_read(y); 4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y); struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x)); 5. Assignment to a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y) __get_cpu_var(y) = x; Converts to __this_cpu_write(y, x); 6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); __get_cpu_var(y)++ Converts to __this_cpu_inc(y) Cc: Tony Luck Cc: Fenghua Yu Cc: linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

[IA64] Fix trap #45 handling

2013-06-03T22:47:42Z

In this case, the original author did not provide the related reason string for die_if_kernel(), so the 'buf' is not initialized. The original author wants to generic a 'SIGSEGV' and 'return', not want to 'break' to fall to die.

taint: add explicit flag to show whether lock dep is still OK.

Fix up all callers as they were before, with make one change: an unsigned module taints the kernel, but doesn't turn off lockdep. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell
