  • Remove fs.h from mm.h. For this,
    1) Uninline vma_wants_writenotify(). It's pretty huge anyway.
    2) Add back fs.h or less bloated headers (err.h) to files that need it.

    As result, on x86_64 allyesconfig, fs.h dependencies cut down from 3929 files
    rebuilt down to 3444 (-12.3%).

    Cross-compile tested without regressions on my two usual configs and (sigh):

  • First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
    function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
    mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

    This patch
    a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
    b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
    c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
    d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
    e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
    getting them indirectly

    Net result is:
    a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
    they don't need sched.h
    b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
    on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
    after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

  • This patch allows drm to populate an agpgart structure with pages of its own.
    It's needed for the new drm memory manager which dynamically flips pages in and out of AGP.

    The patch modifies the generic functions as well as the intel agp driver. The intel drm driver is
    currently the only one supporting the new memory manager.

    Other agp drivers may need some minor fixing up once they have a corresponding memory manager enabled drm driver.

    AGP memory types >= AGP_USER_TYPES are not populated by the agpgart driver, but the drm is expected
    to do that, as well as taking care of cache- and tlb flushing when needed.

    It's not possible to request these types from user space using agpgart ioctls.

    The Intel driver also gets a new memory type for pages that can be bound cached to the intel GTT.

  • Mark the static struct file_operations in drivers/char as const. Making
    them const prevents accidental bugs, and moves them to the .rodata section
    so that they no longer do any false sharing; in addition with the proper
    debug option they are then protected against corruption..

  • 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!
