2014-10-23Merge tag 'remove-weak-declarations' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pciLinus Torvalds1-5/+0
Pull weak function declaration removal from Bjorn Helgaas: "The "weak" attribute is commonly used for the default version of a function, where an architecture can override it by providing a strong version. Some header file declarations included the "weak" attribute. That's error-prone because it causes every implementation to be weak, with no strong version at all, and the linker chooses one based on link order. What we want is the "weak" attribute only on the *definition* of the default implementation. These changes remove "weak" from the declarations, leaving it on the default definitions" * tag 'remove-weak-declarations' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci: uprobes: Remove "weak" from function declarations memory-hotplug: Remove "weak" from memory_block_size_bytes() declaration kgdb: Remove "weak" from kgdb_arch_pc() declaration ARC: kgdb: generic kgdb_arch_pc() suffices vmcore: Remove "weak" from function declarations clocksource: Remove "weak" from clocksource_default_clock() declaration x86, intel-mid: Remove "weak" from function declarations audit: Remove "weak" from audit_classify_compat_syscall() declaration

2014-07-23ARC: [intc] don't mask all IRQ by defaultVineet Gupta1-6/+1
Hardware keeps them enabled on reset, and Linux needs to keep status quo. Any spurious interrupts will be reported/blocked by genirq. This helps remove a SMP IRQ quirk (next commit), where a peripheral IRQ is hard wired to core0, and request_irq()->unmask() happens on core1, keeping the IRQ masked on core0, needing an explicit unmask.

While doing some stuff on user-land memory (I think it is padzero()), | we got a DataTlbMiss | 4. On return from it we are taking "resume_kernel_mode" path | 5.

2013-11-15ARC: perf: ARC 700 PMU doesn't support sampling eventsMischa Jonker1-0/+4
The ARC 700 does not have an interrupt associated with it, and as such it cannot trigger when a counter overflows. As the counters are 48 bit, it will usually take at least 100 days before a counter overflows, so for mere counting of events, there is no problem. Sampling is not supported though.
