When accessing cpu_online_map, we should prevent dynamic changing of cpu_online_map by get_online_cpus(). Unfortunately, all_vm_events() doesn't do that. Signed-off-by:

As the subject says this patch adds the support for kernel preemption on m68knommu Coldfire. I thing the same changes could be applied to 68360 & 68328 but since I don't have the HW, I don't touch it. Kconfig enables the preemption item only on coldfire. This is a missing chunk from Sebastian's original patch that I lost from the first submission. Signed-off-by:

Make XP return values more generic to XP and not so tied to XPC by changing enum xpc_retval to xp_retval, along with changing return value prefixes from xpc to xp. Also, cleanup a comment block that referenced some of these return values as well as the handling of BTE related return values. Signed-off-by:

Alarm delivery could be noticably late in the !CONFIG_NOHZ case because lost ticks weren't being taken into account. This is now treated more carefully, with the time between ticks being calculated and the appropriate number of ticks delivered to the timekeeping system. Cc: Nix <nix@esperi.org.uk> Signed-off-by:

Give random.c a style workover while I'm changing it. Signed-off-by:

Jeff Dike authored
The random driver would essentially hang if the host's /dev/random returned -EAGAIN. There was a test of need_resched followed by a schedule inside the loop, but that didn't help and it's the wrong way to work anyway. The right way is to ask for an interrupt when there is input available from the host and handle it then rather than polling. Now, when the host's /dev/random returns -EAGAIN, the driver asks for a wakeup when there's randomness available again and sleeps. The interrupt routine just wakes up whatever processes are sleeping on host_read_wait. There is an atomic_t, host_sleep_count, which counts the number of processes waiting for randomness. When this reaches zero, the interrupt is disabled. An added complication is that async I/O notification was only recently added to /dev/random (by me), so essentially all hosts will lack it. So, we use the sigio workaround here, which is to have a separate thread poll on the descriptor and send an interrupt when there is input on it. This mechanism is activated when a process gets -EAGAIN (activating this multiple times is harmless, if a bit wasteful) and deactivated by the last process still waiting. The module name was changed from "random" to "hw_random" in order for udev to recognize it. The sigio workaround needed some changes. sigio_broken was added for cases when we know that async notification doesn't work. This is now called from maybe_sigio_broken, which deals with pts devices.

This patch includes page.h header into linker scripts that allow us to use PAGE_SIZE macro instead of numeric constant. To be able to include page.h into linker scripts page.h is needed for some modification - i.e. we need to use __ASSEMBLY__ and _AC macro [jdike@linux.intel.com - fixed conflict with as-layout.h] Signed-off-by:

UML's supposed nanosecond clock interacts badly with NTP when NTP decides that the clock has drifted ahead and needs to be slowed down. Slowing down the clock is done by decrementing the cycle-to-nanosecond multiplier, which is 1. Decrementing that gives you 0 and time is stopped. This is fixed by switching to a microsecond clock, with a multiplier of 1000. Signed-off-by:

Reintroduce uml_kmalloc for the benefit of UML libc code. The previous tactic of declaring __kmalloc so it could be called directly from the libc side of the house turned out to be getting too intimate with slab, and it doesn't work with slob. So, the uml_kmalloc wrapper is back. It calls kmalloc or whatever that translates into, and libc code calls it. kfree is left alone since that still works, leaving a somewhat inconsistent API.

Redo how host capabilities are recorded at startup and disabled on the command line. There are now explicit variables saying what's been disabled by the command line rather than the implicitness of the have_* variable being zero. The capability variables now start at zero and are set to one as their capabilities are found to be present on the host. Signed-off-by:

Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is obviously not the point of it at all). Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier, so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing the wrong thing. Signed-off-by: -

We should not go through the task pointer to get at the thread info, since it's usually cheaper to just access the thread info directly. So don't make the code look up 'current', when we can just use the thread info accessor functions directly. This generally avoids one level of indirection and tends to work better together with code that also looks at other thread flags (eg preempt_count). Signed-off-by: -
