  • Run this:

    #!/bin/sh
    for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
    echo "De-casting $f..."
    perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
    done

    And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
    to non-pointers.

    And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

  • 6.5.7(5): The result of E1 >> E2 is E1 right-shifted E2 bit positions.
    ...
    If E1 has a signed type and a negative value, the resulting value
    is implementation defined.

    So, cast -1 to unsigned type to make result well-defined.

  • - Eliminate casts to/from void*

    - Eliminate checks for conditions that never occur. These typically
    fall into two classes:

    1) Checking for 'dev_id == NULL', then it is never called with
    NULL as an argument.

    2) Checking for invalid irq number, when the only caller (the
    system) guarantees the irq handler is called with the proper
    'irq' number argument.

  • 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.

  • he_init_one() is declared __devinit, but calls lots of init functions
    that are marked __init. However, if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is enabled,
    __devinit functions go into normal .text, which leads to

    WARNING: drivers/atm/he.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .text between 'he_start' (at offset 0x2130) and 'he_service_tbrq'

    Fix this by changing the __init functions to __devinit.

  • This ugly hack was long overdue to die.

    It was a way to print out Sparc interrupts in a more freindly format,
    since IRQ numbers were arbitrary opaque 32-bit integers which vectored
    into PIL levels. These 32-bit integers were not necessarily in the
    0-->NR_IRQS range, but the PILs they vectored to were.

    The idea now is that we will increase NR_IRQS a little bit and use a
    virtualreal IRQ number mapping scheme similar to PowerPC.

    That makes this IRQ printing hack irrelevant, and furthermore only a
    handful of drivers actually used __irq_itoa() making it even less
    useful.
