2005-11-07[PATCH] Move Kprobes and Oprofile to "Instrumentation Support" menuPrasanna S Panchamukhi
Andrew Morton suggested to move kprobes from kernel hacking menu, since kernel hacking menu is in-appropriate for the Kprobes. This patch moves Kprobes and Oprofile under instrumentation menu. (akpm: it's not a natural fit, but things like djprobes and the s390 guys' statistics library need a home) Signed-of-by: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Cc: Philippe Elie <phil.el@wanadoo.fr> Cc: John Levon <levon@movementarian.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-09-29[PATCH] swiotlb: move from arch/ia64/lib/ to lib/John W. Linville
The swiotlb implementation is shared by both IA-64 and EM64T. However, the source itself lives under arch/ia64. This patch moves swiotlb.c from arch/ia64/lib to lib/ and fixes-up the appropriate Makefile and Kconfig files. No actual changes are made to swiotlb.c. Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch increases the maximum number of cpus supported on IA64 to 1024. No changes are made to the default SSI size. The patch simply allows specifying up to 1024p. There are certainly scaling (& other) issues that also need to be addressed!!! Additional patches will follow.....

2005-09-14[LIB]: Consolidate _atomic_dec_and_lock()David S. Miller
Several implementations were essentialy a common piece of C code using the cmpxchg() macro. Put the implementation in one spot that everyone can share, and convert sparc64 over to using this. Alpha is the lone arch-specific implementation, which codes up a special fast path for the common case in order to avoid GP reloading which a pure C version would require. Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-09-07[PATCH] x86/x86_64: deferred handling of writes to /proc/irqxx/smp_affinityAshok Raj
When handling writes to /proc/irq, current code is re-programming rte entries directly. This is not recommended and could potentially cause chipset's to lockup, or cause missing interrupts. CONFIG_IRQ_BALANCE does this correctly, where it re-programs only when the interrupt is pending. The same needs to be done for /proc/irq handling as well. Otherwise user space irq balancers are really not doing the right thing. - Changed pending_irq_balance_cpumask to pending_irq_migrate_cpumask for lack of a generic name. - added move_irq out of IRQ_BALANCE, and added this same to X86_64 - Added new proc handler for write, so we can do deferred write at irq handling time. - Display of /proc/irq/XX/smp_affinity used to display CPU_MASKALL, instead it now shows only active cpu masks, or exactly what was set. - Provided a common move_irq implementation, instead of duplicating when using generic irq framework. Tested on i386/x86_64 and ia64 with CONFIG_PCI_MSI turned on and off. Tested UP builds as well. MSI testing: tbd: I have cards, need to look for a x-over cable, although I did test an earlier version of this patch. Will test in a couple days.

2005-08-26[IA64] Add ACPI based P-state supportVenkatesh Pallipadi
Patch to support P-state transitions on ia64. This driver is based on ACPI, and uses the ACPI processor driver interface to find out the P-state support information for the processor. This driver plugs into generic cpufreq infrastructure. Once this driver is loaded successfully, ondemand/userspace governor can be used to change the CPU frequency dynamically based on load or on request from userspace process.

2005-07-11[NET]: add a top-level Networking menu to *configSam Ravnborg
Create a new top-level menu named "Networking" thus moving net related options and protocol selection way from the drivers menu and up on the top-level where they belong. To implement this all architectures has to source "net/Kconfig" before drivers/*/Kconfig in their Kconfig file. This change has been implemented for all architectures. Device drivers for ordinary NIC's are still to be found in the Device Drivers section, but Bluetooth, IrDA and ax25 are located with their corresponding menu entries under the new networking menu item.

2005-06-23[PATCH] make each arch use mm/KconfigDave Hansen
For all architectures, this just means that you'll see a "Memory Model" choice in your architecture menu. For those that implement DISCONTIGMEM, you may eventually want to make your ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE a "def_bool y" and make your users select DISCONTIGMEM right out of the new choice menu. The only disadvantage might be if you have some specific things that you need in your help option to explain something about DISCONTIGMEM.

2005-06-21[PATCH] ia64 uncached allocJes Sorensen
This patch contains the ia64 uncached page allocator and the generic allocator (genalloc). The uncached allocator was formerly part of the SN2 mspec driver but there are several other users of it so it has been split off from the driver. The generic allocator can be used by device driver to manage special memory etc. The generic allocator is based on the allocator from the sym53c8xx_2 driver. Various users on ia64 needs uncached memory. The SGI SN architecture requires it for inter-partition communication between partitions within a large NUMA cluster. The specific user for this is the XPC code. Another application is large MPI style applications which use it for synchronization, on SN this can be done using special 'fetchop' operations but it also benefits non SN hardware which may use regular uncached memory for this purpose. Performance of doing this through uncached vs cached memory is pretty substantial. This is handled by the mspec driver which I will push out in a seperate patch. Rather than creating a specific allocator for just uncached memory I came up with genalloc which is a generic purpose allocator that can be used by device drivers and other subsystems as they please. For instance to handle onboard device memory. It was derived from the sym53c7xx_2 driver's allocator which is also an example of a potential user (I am refraining from modifying sym2 right now as it seems to have been under fairly heavy development recently). On ia64 memory has various properties within a granule, ie. it isn't safe to access memory as uncached within the same granule as currently has memory accessed in cached mode. The regular system therefore doesn't utilize memory in the lower granules which is mixed in with device PAL code etc. The uncached driver walks the EFI memmap and pulls out the spill uncached pages and sticks them into the uncached pool. Only after these chunks have been utilized, will it start converting regular cached memory into uncached memory. Hence the reason for the EFI related code additions.

While looking at code generated by gcc4.0 I noticed some functions still had frame pointers, even after we stopped ppc64 from defining CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. It turns out kernel/Makefile hardwires -fno-omit-frame-pointer on when compiling schedule.c.

2005-04-25From: jbarnes@sgi.comJesse Barnes
[IA64] fix ia64 Kconfig to allow CONFIG_PM on sn2 This probably should have been fixed when I fixed up the generic build for discontig+numa machines, but oh well. CONFIG_PM is allowable for generic builds but not for sn2 builds, which doesn't make much sense, and in fact breaks the build if recent ACPI bits are added to the tree. It looks like the only arch that needs to prevent CONFIG_PM stuff is the ski simulator (though those options could probably use some cleanup as well), so remove the big conditional and replace it with a simple test for IA64_HP_SIM instead.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
