[PARISC] More pt_regs removal

2006-10-07T12:01:11Z

Remove pt_regs from ipi_interrupt and timer_interrupt. Inline smp_do_timer() into its only caller, and unify the SMP and non-SMP paths. Fixes a profiling bug. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox

[PARISC] Allow nested interrupts

2006-10-04T12:48:57Z

Our prior mode of operation didn't allow nested interrupts because it makes the interrupt code much simpler. However, nested interrupts are better for latency. This code uses the EIEM register to simulate level interrupts and thus achieve nesting. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin

[PARISC] Add new function to start local Interval Timer, start_cpu_itimer()

2006-10-04T12:48:07Z

I couldn't find where the itimer was getting started for slave CPUs. CPU 0 (master) itimer was started in time_init() (arch/parisc/kernel/time.c). start_cpu_itimer() code was striped from time_init(). Slaves now start their itimer in smp_cpu_init(). This is a first step towards making gettimeoffset() work for SMP. Next step will be to determine the CR16 (cycle counter) offsets for each CPU relative to the master (CPU 0).

[PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversions

2006-03-23T15:38:17Z

When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all. The correct way of doing this is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu(). This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS. I found very few instances of this bug, if any. But the patch converts lots of open-coded test to use the preferred helper macros.

[PARISC] Make local cache flushes take a void *

2006-01-11T02:49:21Z

Make flush_data_cache_local, flush_instruction_cache_local and flush_tlb_all_local take a void * so they don't have to be cast when using on_each_cpu(). This becomes a problem when on_each_cpu is a macro (as it is in current -mm). Also move the prototype of flush_tlb_all_local into tlbflush.h and remove its declaration from .c files.

[PARISC] Add __read_mostly section for parisc

Flag a whole bunch of things as __read_mostly on parisc. Also flag a few branches as unlikely() and cleanup a bit of code. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin

[PARISC] Fix our interrupts not to use smp_call_function

2005-11-17T21:27:02Z

Fix our interrupts not to use smp_call_function On K and D class smp, the generic code calls this under an irq spinlock, which causes the WARN_ON() message in smp_call_function() (and is also illegal because it could deadlock). The fix is to use a new scheme based on the IPI_NOP. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin

[PARISC] Make sure timer and IPI execute with interrupts disabled

2005-11-17T21:24:52Z

Fix a longstanding smp bug The problem is that both the timer and ipi interrupts are being called with interrupts enabled, which isn't what anyone is expecting. The IPI issue has just started to show up by causing a BUG_ON in the slab debugging code. The timer issue never shows up because there's an eiem work around in our irq.c The fix is to label both these as SA_INTERRUPT which causes the generic irq code not to enable interrupts. I also suspect the smp_call_function timeouts we're seeing might be connected with the fact that we disable IPIs when handling any other type of interrupt. I've put a WARN_ON in the code for executing smp_call_function() with IPIs disabled. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin
