2008-12-27sparc: drop SUN_IOSam Ravnborg
SUN_IO is always 'y' so drop it and thus killing an ifdef/endif pair Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-12-27sparc: unify sections.hSam Ravnborg
While doing this use standard names for start/end so we could use definitions straight from asm-generic for all the typical symbols. This also allowed us to drop the use of PROVIDE in the linker script so sprc is less non-standard on this area. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-12-11sparc: use sparc64 version of scatterlist.hRobert Reif
Use sparc64 version of scatterlist.h. There are three main differences: dma_addr_t replaces __u32 dma_address replaces dvma_address dma_length replaces dvma_length dma_addr_t is a u32 on sparc32. Boot tested on sparc32. Signed-off-by: Robert Reif <reif@earthlink.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-12-04sparc64: Make %pil level 15 a pseudo-NMI.David S. Miller
So that we can profile code even in a local_irq_disable() section, only write 14 (instead of 15) into the %pil register to disable IRQs. This allows PIL level 15 to serve as a pseudo NMI. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-12-04sparc64: Add tsb-ratio sysctl.David S. Miller
Add a sysctl to tweak the RSS limit used to decide when to grow the TSB for an address space. In order to avoid expensive divides and multiplies only simply positive and negative powers of two are supported. The function computed takes the number of TSB translations that will fit at one time in the TSB of a given size, and either adds or subtracts a percentage of entries. This final value is the RSS limit. See tsb_size_to_rss_limit(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

All noise since we don't have CPU hotplug there. However, they did expose something very odd-looking in there - poke_viking() does a bunch of identical btfixup each time it's called (i.e. for each CPU).

2008-08-31sparc: remove CONFIG_SUN4Adrian Bunk
While doing some easy cleanups on the sparc code I noticed that the CONFIG_SUN4 code seems to be worse than the rest - there were some "I don't know how it should work, but the current code definitely cannot work." places. And while I have seen people running Linux on machines like a SPARCstation 5 a few years ago I don't recall having seen sun4 machines, even less ones running Linux.

2008-07-24mm: drop unneeded pgdat argument from free_area_init_node()Johannes Weiner
free_area_init_node() gets passed in the node id as well as the node descriptor. This is redundant as the function can trivially get the node descriptor itself by means of NODE_DATA() and the node's id.

2008-05-02sparc32: More memory probing consolidation.David S. Miller
The PROM library function prom_meminit() builds a table, prom_phys_avail[], just so that probe_memory() in arch/sparc/mm/fault.c can copy it into sp_banks[].

2008-02-08CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.Martin Schwidefsky
Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries (pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking. To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return 1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE. Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than 32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be accessible since its not kmapped). Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer. To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

2008-02-07Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()Bernhard Walle
This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions between crashkernel area and already used memory. This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().

2007-10-16During VM oom condition, kill all threads in process groupWill Schmidt
We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory condition. Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious that something has gone wrong. This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather than just the one thread.

This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.
