  • Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked
    with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
    critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

    The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
    equivalent transformation. No locking or other behavior should change
    with this patch. All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

    Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
    struct Scsi_Host *
    and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
    void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

    Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
    and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done.

    Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change. Most drivers
    needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

  • The taskstats interface uses microsecond granularity for the user and
    system time values. The conversion from cputime to the taskstats values
    uses the cputime_to_msecs primitive which effectively limits the
    granularity to milliseconds. Add the cputime_to_usecs primitive for
    architectures that have better, more precise CPU time values. Remove
    cputime_to_msecs primitive because there are no more users left.

  • The following patch

    commit 57ce1659316f4ca298919649f9b1b55862ac3826
    KVM: x86: In DM_LOWEST, only deliver interrupts to vcpus with enabled LAPIC's

    ignored the fact that kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic() was also used by ia64.

    We define kvm_lapic_enabled() to fix a compile error caused by this.
    This will have the same effect as reverting the problematic patch for ia64.

  • This patch converts ia64 to use asm-generic/ioctls.h instead of its
    own version.

    The differences between the arch-specific version and the generic
    version are as follows:

    - The generic version adds TIOCSRS485 and TIOCGRS485, which are unused
    by any driver available on this architecture.
    - The generic version adds support for termiox

  • All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
    nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
    .llseek pointer.

    The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
    and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
    the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
    the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

    New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
    and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
    to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
    relies on calling seek on the device file.

    The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
    comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
    chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
    be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
    seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

    Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
    the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

    Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
    patch that does all this.

  • Fix the IRQ flag handling naming. In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
    it maps:

    local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
    local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
    local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
    ...

    and under the other configuration, it maps:

    raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
    raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
    raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
    ...

    This is quite confusing. There should be one set of names expected of the
    arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
    by users of this facility.

    Change this to have the arch provide:

    flags = arch_local_save_flags()
    flags = arch_local_irq_save()
    arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
    arch_local_irq_disable()
    arch_local_irq_enable()
    arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
    arch_irqs_disabled()
    arch_safe_halt()

    Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:

    raw_local_save_flags(flags)
    raw_local_irq_save(flags)
    raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
    raw_local_irq_disable()
    raw_local_irq_enable()
    raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
    raw_irqs_disabled()
    raw_safe_halt()

    with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:

    local_save_flags(flags)
    local_irq_save(flags)
    local_irq_restore(flags)
    local_irq_disable()
    local_irq_enable()
    irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
    irqs_disabled()
    safe_halt()

    with tracing included if enabled.

    The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
    having to be macros.

  • Thomas Gleixner is cleaning up the generic irq code, and ia64 ran
    into problems because it calls register_intr() before early_irq_init()
    is called. Move the call to acpi_boot_init() from setup_arch() to
    init_IRQ().

    As a bonus - moving the call later means we no longer need the
    hacks in iosapic.c to switch between the bootmem and regular
    allocator - we can just used kzalloc() for allocation.

    Mostly trivial stuff for this. The only tricky part was realizing
    that the new handler_*_irq() paths do not use desc->chip->end(irq).
    Not a problem for the edge case as the ia64 iosapic routine for
    that was nop(). But the "level" case handled interrupt migration
    there. Just use a slightly modified version of the "end" routine
    as "unmask" for the level triggered case.
