  • This header file exists only for some hacks to adapt alsa-driver
    tree. It's useless for building in the kernel. Let's move a few
    lines in it to sound/core.h and remove it.
    With this patch, sound/driver.h isn't removed but has just a single
    compile warning to include it. This should be really killed in
    future.

  • This removes the pnp_resource_change use from the ALSA ISAPnP drivers. In
    2.4 these were useful in providing an easy path to setting the resources,
    but in 2.6 they retain function as a layering violation only.
    This makes for a nice cleanup (-550 lines) of ALSA but moreover, ALSA is the
    only remaining user of pnp_init_resource_table(), pnp_resource_change() and
    pnp_manual_config_dev() (and, in fact, of 'struct pnp_resource_table') in
    the tree outide of drivers/pnp itself meaning it makes for more cleanup
    potential inside the PnP layer.
    Thomas Renninger acked their removal from that side, you did from the ALSA
    side (CC list just copied from that thread).
    Against current alsa-kernel HG. Many more potential cleanups in there, but
    this _only_ removes the pnp_resource_change code. Compile tested against
    current alsa-kernel HG and compile- and use-tested against 2.6.23.x (few
    offsets).

  • 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.

  • I noticed on 2.6.16-rc4 that my MPU-401 wasn't functional, due to a simple
    copy & paste error in sound/isa/cs423x/cs4236.c.
