This adds a const to the definitions vvar.c makes, so that the vdso_* variables go into .rodata instead of .data. This is essentially a cosmetic change, just giving the section headers in the vDSO file more pleasing flags. These variables are read-only from the perspective of the vDSO itself and user mode, even though the contents of the DSO image were adjusted at boot. Signed-off-by:

In x86_64 and i386 architectures most arrays that are sized using NR_CPUS lay in local memory on node 0. Not only will most (99%?) of the systems not use all the slots in these arrays, particularly when NR_CPUS is increased to accommodate future very high cpu count systems, but a number of cache lines are passed unnecessarily on the system bus when these arrays are referenced by cpus on other nodes. Typically, the values in these arrays are referenced by the cpu accessing it's own values, though when passing IPI interrupts, the cpu does access the data relevant to the targeted cpu/node. Of course, if the referencing cpu is not on node 0, then the reference will still require cross node exchanges of cache lines. A common use of this is for an interrupt service routine to pass the interrupt to other cpus local to that node. Ideally, all the elements in these arrays should be moved to the per_cpu data area. In some cases (such as x86_cpu_to_apicid) the array is referenced before the per_cpu data areas are setup. In this case, a static array is declared in the __initdata area and initialized by the booting cpu (BSP). The values are then moved to the per_cpu area after it is initialized and the original static array is freed with the rest of the __initdata. This patch: Fix four instances where cpu_to_node is referenced by array instead of via the cpu_to_node macro. This is preparation to moving it to the per_cpu data area. Signed-off-by:

sys_iopl is long gone and there is no reason to declare sys_rt_sigaction here. Remove it all together and fix the whitespace mess as well. It's worth the trouble: 25897 -> 21337 bytes, the win is larger than the memory of my first computer :) Signed-off-by:

The return type of __scanbit() doesn't match the return type of find_{first,next}_bit(). Thus when you construct something like this: boolean ? __scanbit() : find_first_bit() you get an unsigned long result if "boolean" is true, and a signed long result if "boolean" is false.

This patch removes the __STR() and STR() macros from x86_64 header files. They seem to be legacy, and has no more users. Even if there were users, they should use __stringify() instead. In fact, there were one third place in which this macro was defined (ia32_binfmt.c), and used just below. In this file, usage was properly converted to __stringify() [ tglx: arch/x86 adaptation ] Signed-off-by:

The constraints in the inline assembler implementation of i386 strrchr() were incorrect and break the build with recent gcc 4.3. Since there are only very few callers of strrchr() and none of them are performance relevant just remove the assembler implementation and use the C fallback instead.

cpuid_class_cpu_callback() is callback function of a CPU hotplug notifier_block (that is already marked as __cpuinitdata). Therefore it can safely be marked as __cpuinit. cpuid_device_create() is only referenced from other functions that are __cpuinit or __init. So it can also be safely marked __cpuinit.

msr_class_cpu_callback() can be marked __cpuinit, being the notifier callback for a __cpuinitdata notifier_block. So can be marked msr_device_create() too, called only from the newly-__cpuinit msr_class_cpu_callback() or from __init-marked msr_init(). [ tglx: arch/x86 adaptation ] Signed-off-by:
