    and thus must not be preempted on -rt.

    In mainline this change documents the low level nature of
    the lock - otherwise there's no functional difference. Lockdep
    and Sparse checking will work as usual.

  • The return here doesn't release the locks or re-enable IRQs. But as
    Andrew Morton points out, domain is never NULL. list_first_entry()
    essentially never returns NULL and also we already verified that the list
    is not empty.

  • …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

  • This patch enables DCA support on multiple-IOH/multiple-IIO architectures.
    It modifies dca module by replacing single dca_providers list
    with dca_domains list, each domain containing separate list of providers.
    This approach lets dca driver manage multiple domains, i.e. sets of providers
    and requesters mapped back to the same PCI root complex device.
    The driver takes care to register each requester to a provider
    from the same domain.

  • Change spin_locks to irqsave to prevent dead-locks.
    Protect adding and deleting to/from dca_providers list.
    Drop the lock during dca_sysfs_add_req() and dca_sysfs_remove_req() calls
    as they might sleep (use GFP_KERNEL allocation).

    * 8 single channel DMA devices (8 channels total)
    * 8 DCA providers, each can accept 2 requesters
    * 8-bit TAG values and 32-bit extended APIC IDs

  • Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data
    is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses. This
    patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA
    services with devices that offer DCA services.

    In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag
    bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU. However, different
    CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods
    for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a
    hardware specific magic incantation. This interface is a way for DCA
    clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing
    to know the specifics.
