2006-12-07[PATCH] elf: Always define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.hMagnus Damm1-1/+0
Define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.h. The size of the type is determined using ELF_CLASS. This allows us to remove the defines that today are spread all over .c and .h files.

2006-12-07[PATCH] mm: arch do_page_fault() vs in_atomic()Peter Zijlstra1-1/+1
In light of the recent pagefault and filemap_copy_from_user work I've gone through all the arch pagefault handlers to make sure the inc_preempt_count() 'feature' works as expected. Several sections of code (including the new filemap_copy_from_user) rely on the fact that faults do not take locks under increased preempt count. arch/x86_64 - good arch/powerpc - good arch/cris - fixed arch/i386 - good arch/parisc - fixed arch/sh - good arch/sparc - good arch/s390 - good arch/m68k - fixed arch/ppc - good arch/alpha - fixed arch/mips - good arch/sparc64 - good arch/ia64 - good arch/arm - fixed arch/um - good arch/avr32 - good arch/h8300 - NA arch/m32r - good arch/v850 - good arch/frv - fixed arch/m68knommu - NA arch/arm26 - fixed arch/sh64 - fixed arch/xtensa - good Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

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).

2006-10-04[PARISC] parisc specific kmap API implementation for pa8800James Bottomley1-1/+44
This patch fixes the pa8800 at a gross level (there are still other subtle incoherency issues which can still cause crashes and HPMCs). What it does is try to force eject inequivalent aliases before they become visible to the L2 cache (which is where we get the incoherence problems). A new function (parisc_requires_coherency) is introduced in asm/processor.h to identify the pa8x00 processors (8800 and 8900) which have the issue.

2006-10-03[PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbersDavid Howells2-4/+21
These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace automatically where the arch supports it. Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and so overlaps occur. This patch: Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace. The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then error EOVERFLOW will be issued. Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented. Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to. Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a 32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the same reasons. It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

2006-10-01[PATCH] kill wall_jiffiesAtsushi Nemoto1-4/+1
With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies. So we can kill wall_jiffies completely. This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1". This condition is never met so I suppose it is just a bug. I just remove that condition only instead of kill the whole "if" block.

2006-09-29[PATCH] simplify update_times (avoid jiffies/jiffies_64 aliasing problem)Atsushi Nemoto1-1/+1
Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390 timer interrupt handler with this change. Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update. Passing ticks get rid of this redundant calculation. Also there are another redundancy pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky. This cleanup make a barrier added by 5aee405c662ca644980c184774277fc6d0769a84 needless. So this patch removes it. As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies. (This patch does not really remove wall_jiffies.

2006-09-29[PATCH] Fix conflict with the is_init identifier on pariscEric Biederman1-16/+16
This appears to be the only usage of is_init in the kernel besides the usage in sched.h. On ia64 the same function is called in_init. So to remove the conflict and make the kernel more consistent rename is_init is_core is_local and is_local_section to in_init in_core in_local and in_local_section respectively. Thanks to Adrian Bunk who spotted this, and to Matthew Wilcox who suggested this fix.

2006-09-26[PATCH] NUMA: Add zone_to_nid functionChristoph Lameter1-1/+1
There are many places where we need to determine the node of a zone. Currently we use a difficult to read sequence of pointer dereferencing. Put that into an inline function and use throughout VM. Maybe we can find a way to optimize the lookup in the future.
