      tick: Introduce hrtimer based broadcast · 5d1638ac
      Preeti U Murthy authored
      On some architectures, in certain CPU deep idle states the local timers stop.
      An external clock device is used to wakeup these CPUs. The kernel support for the
      wakeup of these CPUs is provided by the tick broadcast framework by using the
      external clock device as the wakeup source.
      
      However not all implementations of architectures provide such an external
      clock device. This patch includes support in the broadcast framework to handle
      the wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle states on such systems by queuing a hrtimer
      on one of the CPUs, which is meant to handle the wakeup of CPUs in deep idle states.
      
      This patchset introduces a pseudo clock device which can be registered by the
      archs as tick_broadcast_device in the absence of a real external clock
      device. Once registered, the broadcast framework will work as is for these
      architectures as long as the archs take care of the BROADCAST_ENTER
      notification failing for one of the CPUs. This CPU is made the stand by CPU to
      handle wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle and it *must not enter deep idle states*.
      
      The CPU with the earliest wakeup is chosen to be this CPU. Hence this way the
      stand by CPU dynamically moves around and so does the hrtimer which is queued
      to trigger at the next earliest wakeup time. This is consistent with the case where
      an external clock device is present. The smp affinity of this clock device is
      set to the CPU with the earliest wakeup. This patchset handles the hotplug of
      the stand by CPU as well by moving the hrtimer on to the CPU handling the CPU_DEAD
      notification.

      cpuidle: Handle clockevents_notify(BROADCAST_ENTER) failure · ba8f20c2
      Preeti U Murthy authored
      Some archs set the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag for idle states in which the
      local timers stop. The cpuidle_idle_call() currently handles such idle states
      by calling into the broadcast framework so as to wakeup CPUs at their next
      wakeup event. With the hrtimer mode of broadcast, the BROADCAST_ENTER call
      into the broadcast frameowork can fail for archs that do not have an external
      clock device to handle wakeups and the CPU in question has thus to be made
      the stand by CPU. This patch handles such cases by failing the call into
      cpuidle so that the arch can take some default action. The arch will certainly
      not enter a similar idle state because a failed cpuidle call will also implicitly
      indicate that the broadcast framework has not registered this CPU to be woken up.
      Hence we are safe if we fail the cpuidle call.
      
      In the process move the functions that trace idle statistics just before and
      after the entry and exit into idle states respectively. In other
      scenarios where the call to cpuidle fails, we end up not tracing idle
      entry and exit since a decision on an idle state could not be taken. Similarly
      when the call to broadcast framework fails, we skip tracing idle statistics
      because we are in no further position to take a decision on an alternative
      idle state to enter into.

      time: Change the return type of clockevents_notify() to integer · da7e6f45
      Preeti U Murthy authored
      The broadcast framework can potentially be made use of by archs which do not have an
      external clock device as well. Then, it is required that one of the CPUs need
      to handle the broadcasting of wakeup IPIs to the CPUs in deep idle. As a
      result its local timers should remain functional all the time. For such
      a CPU, the BROADCAST_ENTER notification has to fail indicating that its clock
      device cannot be shutdown. To make way for this support, change the return
      type of tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() and hence clockevents_notify() to
      indicate such scenarios.

        parisc has been the only platform where we had EWOULDBLOCK != EAGAIN
        to keep HP-UX compatibility.  Since we will probably never implement
        full HP-UX support, we prefer to drop this compatibility to make it
        easier for us with Linux userspace programs which mostly never checked
        for both values.  We don't expect major fall-outs because of this
        change, and if we face some, we will simply rebuild the necessary
        applications in the debian archives"

      hpfs: optimize quad buffer loading · 1c0b8a7a
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      HPFS needs to load 4 consecutive 512-byte sectors when accessing the
      directory nodes or bitmaps.  We can't switch to 2048-byte block size
      because files are allocated in the units of 512-byte sectors.
      
      Previously, the driver would allocate a 2048-byte area using kmalloc,
      copy the data from four buffers to this area and eventually copy them
      back if they were modified.
      
      In the current implementation of the buffer cache, buffers are allocated
      in the pagecache.  That means that 4 consecutive 512-byte buffers are
      stored in consecutive areas in the kernel address space.  So, we don't
      need to allocate extra memory and copy the content of the buffers there.
      
      This patch optimizes the code to avoid copying the buffers.  It checks
      if the four buffers are stored in contiguous memory - if they are not,
      it falls back to allocating a 2048-byte area and copying data there.

      hpfs: remember free space · 2cbe5c76
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      Previously, hpfs scanned all bitmaps each time the user asked for free
      space using statfs.  This patch changes it so that hpfs scans the
      bitmaps only once, remembes the free space and on next invocation of
      statfs it returns the value instantly.
      
      New versions of wine are hammering on the statfs syscall very heavily,
      making some games unplayable when they're stored on hpfs, with load
      times in minutes.
      
      This should be backported to the stable kernels because it fixes
      user-visible problem (excessive level load times in wine).
