This tells the logic to ignore the line match when deciding whether the device is the OpenFirmware specified console device or not. This is going to be used in the SU driver for rsc-console detection. There is probably a better way to handle this, but this is the least intrusive solution for now which we can validate won't break any other cases. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

These device nodes are named "rsc-console" and "rsc-control" rather than 'serial', but the device_type property is 'serial' so we'll tip off of that for detection. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Other Sun serial drivers do not do this, and if we keep it this way it ends up registering all serial devices as consoles rather than just the one which we explicitly register via sunserial_console_match() which uses add_preferred_console(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This was the cause of various boot failures on V480, V880, etc. systems. Kernel image memory was being overwritten because the vmemmap[] array was being sized to small. So if you had physical memory addresses past a certain point, the early bootup would spam all over variables in the kernel data section. The vmemmap mappings map page structs, not page struct pointers. And that was the key thinko in the macro definition. This was fixable thanks to the help, reports, and tireless patience of Hermann Lauer. Reported-by: Hermann Lauer <Hermann.Lauer@iwr.uni-heidelberg.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

After sucessfully registering the misc device the driver iounmaps the hardware registers and kfree's the device data structure. Ouch ! This was introduced with commit e42311d7 (riowatchdog: Convert to pure OF driver) and went unnoticed for more than a year :) Return success instead of dropping into the error cleanup code path.

Thanks to tip form ARM folks and Russell King. If flush_dcache_page() occurs on a swapin it will have a mapping and we'll try to defer the flush by setting the dirty bit. But when it hits update_dcache_page() we won't flush because the page won't have a mapping any more. So remove the mapping requirement in flush_dcache(). Signed-off-by: David S.

Arjan van de Ven authored
Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using iwlagn. It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible. The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that: 1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less 2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up. I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec range.

When a vmalloc'd area is mmap'd into userspace, some kind of co-ordination is necessary for this to work on platforms with cpu D-caches which can have aliases. Otherwise kernel side writes won't be seen properly in userspace and vice versa. If the kernel side mapping and the user side one have the same alignment, modulo SHMLBA, this can work as long as VM_SHARED is shared of VMA and for all current users this is true. VM_SHARED will force SHMLBA alignment of the user side mmap on platforms with D-cache aliasing matters. The bulk of this patch is just making it so that a specific alignment can be passed down into __get_vm_area_node(). All existing callers pass in '1' which preserves existing behavior. vmalloc_user() gives SHMLBA for the alignment. As a side effect this should get the video media drivers and other vmalloc_user() users into more working shape on such systems. Signed-off-by: David S.

Update documentation of cgroups tasks and procs files Document the cgroup.procs file. Clarify the semantics of the cgroup.procs and tasks files. Although the current cgroup.procs interface returns a sorted and uniqified list of pids, potential future performance enhancements could result in those properties being removed - explicitly document this aspect of the API. There are no existing users of cgroup.procs, so compatibility isn't an issue. There are users of the "tasks" file, but none that would appear to break in the event of the sorted property being broken. The standard "libcpuset" explicitly sorts the results of reading from the tasks file, and "libcg" and other users don't appear to care about ordering.
