  • Optimize ext2_find_next_zero_bit. Gives about 25% perf improvement with a
    rsync test with ext3.

    Signed-off-by: Randolph Chung

    fix ext3 performance - ext2_find_next_zero() was culprit.
    Kudos to jejb for pointing out the the possibility that ext2_test_bit
    and ext2_find_next_zero() may in fact not be enumerating bits in
    the bitmap because of endianess. Took sparc64 implementation and
    adapted it to our tree. I suspect the real problem is ffz() wants
    an unsigned long and was getting garbage in the top half of the
    unsigned int. Not confirmed but that's what I suspect.

    Fixup bitops.h to use volatile for *_bit() ops

    Based on this email thread:
    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=108826637900003

    In a nutshell:
    *_bit() want use of volatile.
    __*_bit() are "relaxed" and don't use spinlock or volatile.

    other minor changes:
    o replaces hweight64() macro with alias to generic_hweight64() (Joel Soete)
    o cleanup ext2* macros so (a) it's obvious what the XOR magic is about
    and (b) one version that works for both 32/64-bit.
    o replace 2 uses of CONFIG_64BIT with __LP64__. bitops.h used both.
    I think header files that might go to user space should use
    something userspace will know about (__LP64__).

  • This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
    de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code. It does the following
    things:

    - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code

    - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files

    - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
    features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code.

    - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.

    Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
    located in lib/spinlock_debug.c. (previously we had one SMP debugging
    variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)

    Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
    write-owners. There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
    All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
    spin/rwlock lockups.

    The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
    subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
    lives in the generic headers:

    include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h | 16
    include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h | 16

    I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,
    making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is:

    SMP | UP
    ----------------------------|-----------------------------------
    asm/spinlock_types_smp.h | linux/spinlock_types_up.h
    linux/spinlock_types.h | linux/spinlock_types.h
    asm/spinlock_smp.h | linux/spinlock_up.h
    linux/spinlock_api_smp.h | linux/spinlock_api_up.h
    linux/spinlock.h | linux/spinlock.h

    /*
    * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files:
    *
    * on SMP builds:
    *
    * asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the
    * initializers
    *
    * linux/spinlock_types.h:
    * defines the generic type and initializers
    *
    * asm/spinlock.h: contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. lowlevel
    * implementations, mostly inline assembly code
    *
    * (also included on UP-debug builds:)
    *
    * linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:
    * contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs.
    *
    * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_*() APIs.
    *
    * on UP builds:
    *
    * linux/spinlock_type_up.h:
    * contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type.
    * (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds)
    *
    * linux/spinlock_types.h:
    * defines the generic type and initializers
    *
    * linux/spinlock_up.h:
    * contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP
    * builds. (which are NOPs on non-debug, non-preempt
    * builds)
    *
    * (included on UP-non-debug builds:)
    *
    * linux/spinlock_api_up.h:
    * builds the _spin_*() APIs.
    *
    * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_*() APIs.

    All SMP and UP architectures are converted by this patch.

    arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via
    crosscompilers. m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should
    be mostly fine.

    From: Grant Grundler

    Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU).
    Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested). I did not try to build
    non-SMP kernels. That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary.

    I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t. Doing so avoids
    some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files. Those particular locks
    are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code. I do NOT
    expect any new issues to arise with them.

    If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will
    need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops
    that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW
    (load and clear word).

  • 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!
