2007-07-26ACPI: add "acpi_no_auto_ssdt" bootparamLen Brown
"acpi_no_auto_ssdt" prevents Linux from automatically loading all the SSDTs listed in the RSDT/XSDT. This is needed for debugging. In particular, it allows a DSDT override to optionally be a DSDT+SSDT override. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3774 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2007-07-25kbuild: fix modpost warnings for xtensaSam Ravnborg
The Xtensa architecture places literal pools in sections separate from the instructions. The corresponsing text sections, therefore, reference the .literal section, and we have to suppress those warnings. The naming convention defines the name for a literal section as .SECTION.literal, unless .SECTION is .text. In that case the name is only .literal. Using strncmp() instead of strcmp() to compare the from-section with .SECTION.init.refok in pattern 0 should not cause any regressions for other architectures. We also need to suppress warnings for two informational sections (.xt.lit and .xt.prop) used by the Xtensa architecture.

2007-07-25kbuild: be more foregiving on init section namingSam Ravnborg
In the whitelist function of modpost now use the same check to identify init_section as in other places of modpost. This has the effect that we now recognize sections named .init.text.19 as init sections and we no longer warn when we see these. At the same time make surrounding code readable by dropping use of temporary flags. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

2007-07-25[x86 setup] APM detection logic bug fixMikael Pettersson
Starting with kernel 2.6.23-rc1, the i386 APM driver fails on several of my machines with the message: apm: BIOS not found This happens because of a bug in the i386 boot code rewrite from assembler to C. The original assembly code had the following code in its APM BIOS presence test (boot/setup.S): andw $0x02, %cx # Is 32 bit supported? je done_apm_bios # No 32-bit, no (good) APM BIOS That is, the code bails out if bit 2 is zero. In the new C version, this is coded as (boot/apm.c): if (cx & 0x02) /* 32 bits supported? */ return -1; Here we see that the test has been accidentally inverted. The fix is to negate the test. I've verified that this allows the APM driver to work again on my affected machines. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

2007-07-25Cache xtime every call to update_wall_timejohn stultz
This avoids xtime lag seen with dynticks, because while 'xtime' itself is still not updated often, we keep a 'xtime_cache' variable around that contains the approximate real-time that _is_ updated each time we do a 'update_wall_time()', and is thus never off by more than one tick. IOW, this restores the original semantics for 'xtime' users, as long as you use the proper abstraction functions (ie 'current_kernel_time()' or 'get_seconds()' depending on whether you want a timespec or just the seconds field). [ Updated Patch. As penance for my sins I've also yanked another #ifdef that was added to avoid the xtime lag w/ hrtimers. ] Signed-off-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-07-25Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().john stultz
This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside of the actual time-related functions. Instead, use the helper functions that we already have available to us. This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ (because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a third of a second or so.
