  • 10146801e   m68knommu: remove is_in_rom() function ... Browse Code »

    Remove is_in_rom() function. It doesn't actually serve the purpose it was
    intended to. If you look at the use of it _access_ok() (which is the only use
    of it) then it is obvious that most of memory is marked as access_ok. No
    point having is_in_rom() then, so remove it.

  • 0aa817f07   Slab allocators: define common size limitations ... Browse Code »

    Currently we have a maze of configuration variables that determine the
    maximum slab size. Worst of all it seems to vary between SLAB and SLUB.

    So define a common maximum size for kmalloc. For conveniences sake we use
    the maximum size ever supported which is 32 MB. We limit the maximum size
    to a lower limit if MAX_ORDER does not allow such large allocations.

    For many architectures this patch will have the effect of adding large
    kmalloc sizes. x86_64 adds 5 new kmalloc sizes. So a small amount of
    memory will be needed for these caches (contemporary SLAB has dynamically
    sizeable node and cpu structure so the waste is less than in the past)

    Most architectures will then be able to allocate object with sizes up to
    MAX_ORDER. We have had repeated breakage (in fact whenever we doubled the
    number of supported processors) on IA64 because one or the other struct
    grew beyond what the slab allocators supported. This will avoid future
    issues and f.e. avoid fixes for 2k and 4k cpu support.

    CONFIG_LARGE_ALLOCS is no longer necessary so drop it.

    It fixes sparc64 with SLAB.

  • 6473d160b   PCI: Cleanup the includes of <linux/pci.h> ... Browse Code »

    I noticed that many source files include while they do
    not appear to need it. Here is an attempt to clean it all up.

    In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all
    files including but without any other occurence of "pci"
    or "PCI". I removed the include statement from all of these, then I
    compiled an allmodconfig kernel on both i386 and x86_64 and fixed the
    false positives manually.

    My tests covered 66% of the affected files, so there could be false
    positives remaining. Untested files are:

    arch/alpha/kernel/err_common.c
    arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev6.c
    arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev7.c
    arch/ia64/sn/kernel/huberror.c

    I would welcome test reports for these files. I am fine with removing
    the untested files from the patch if the general opinion is that these
    changes aren't safe. The tested part would still be nice to have.

    Note that this patch depends on another header fixup patch I submitted
    to LKML yesterday:

    but we cannot include linux/irq.h in generic code.

    Fix it by moving the declaration into linux/interrupt.h instead.

    And make sure all code that defines init_irq_proc() is including
    linux/interrupt.h.

    * Introduce new symbols (HAS_IOPORT and HAS_IOMEM) defaulting to positive;

    dependencies of quite a few drivers).
    * protect the ioport-related parts of lib/devres.o with CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT.

  • 66701b149   [PATCH] optional ZONE_DMA: introduce CONFIG_ZONE_DMA ... Browse Code »

    This patch simply defines CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for all arches. We later do special
    things with CONFIG_ZONE_DMA after the VM and an arch are prepared to work
    without ZONE_DMA.

    CONFIG_ZONE_DMA can be defined in two ways depending on how an architecture
    handles ISA DMA.

    First if CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA is set by the arch then we know that the arch
    needs ZONE_DMA because ISA DMA devices are supported. We can catch this in
    mm/Kconfig and do not need to modify arch code.

    Second, arches may use ZONE_DMA in an unknown way. We set CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for
    all arches that do not set CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA in order to insure backwards
    compatibility. The arches may later undefine ZONE_DMA if their arch code has
    been verified to not depend on ZONE_DMA.

  • f0d1b0b30   [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel ... Browse Code »

    This facility provides three entry points:

    ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long
    ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32
    ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64

    These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

    int do_something(long q)
    {
    ...;
    y = ilog2(x)
    ...;
    }

    Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

    unsigned n = ilog2(27);

    When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
    initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
    something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as
    unsigned.

    When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
    them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
    x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.
