2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-07-19Input: implement new force feedback interfaceAnssi Hannula
Implement a new force feedback interface, in which all non-driver-specific operations are separated to a common module. This includes handling effect type validations, locking, etc. The effects are now file descriptor specific instead of the previous strange half-process half-fd specific behaviour. The effect memory of devices is not emptied if the root user opens and closes the device while another user is using effects. This is a minor change and most likely no force feedback aware programs are affected by this negatively. Otherwise the userspace interface is left unaltered.

2006-07-06Input: introduce input_inject_event() functionDmitry Torokhov
Create input_inject_event() function which is to be used by input handlers as opposed to input_event() which is reserved for drivers implementing input devices. The difference is that if device is "grabbed" by some process input_inject_event() will ignore events unless sent from the handle that is currently owns the device.

2006-07-06Input: add start() method to input handlersDmitry Torokhov

2006-06-26Input: reset name, phys and uniq when unregisteringDmitry Torokhov
Name, phys and uniq are quite often constant strings in moules implementing particular input device. If a module unregisters input device and then gets unloaded, the device could still be present in memory (pinned via sysfs), but aforementioned members would point to some random memory. Set them all to NULL when unregistering so sysfs handlers won't try dereferencing them. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

2006-01-04[PATCH] Input: add modalias supportRusty Russell
Here's the patch for modalias support for input classes. It uses comma-separated numbers, and doesn't describe all the potential keys (no module currently cares, and that would make the strings huge). The changes to input.h are to move the definitions needed by file2alias outside __KERNEL__. I chose not to move those definitions to mod_devicetable.h, because there are so many that it might break compile of something else in the kernel. The rest is fairly straightforward.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
