asm/cmpxchg.h can be included on its own and needs to be self-consistent. The definitions for the cmpxchg*_local macros, as such, need to be part of this file. This fixes a build issue on OpenRISC since the system.h smashing patch 96f951ed that introdued the direct inclusion asm/cmpxchg.h into linux/llist.h.

Some architectures have symbol prefixes and set CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, but this wasn't taken into account by the generic cond_syscall. It's easy enough to fix in a generic fashion, so add the symbol prefix to symbol names in cond_syscall when CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set. Signed-off-by:

The s390 architecture is unique in respect to dirty page detection, it uses the change bit in the per-page storage key to track page modifications. All other architectures track dirty bits by means of page table entries. This property of s390 has caused numerous problems in the past, e.g. see git commit ef5d437f "mm: fix XFS oops due to dirty pages without buffers on s390". To avoid future issues in regard to per-page dirty bits convert s390 to a fault based software dirty bit detection mechanism. All user page table entries which are marked as clean will be hardware read-only, even if the pte is supposed to be writable. A write by the user process will trigger a protection fault which will cause the user pte to be marked as dirty and the hardware read-only bit is removed. With this change the dirty bit in the storage key is irrelevant for Linux as a host, but the storage key is still required for KVM guests. The effect is that page_test_and_clear_dirty and the related code can be removed. The referenced bit in the storage key is still used by the page_test_and_clear_young primitive to provide page age information. For page cache pages of mappings with mapping_cap_account_dirty there will not be any change in behavior as the dirty bit tracking already uses read-only ptes to control the amount of dirty pages. Only for swap cache pages and pages of mappings without mapping_cap_account_dirty there can be additional protection faults. To avoid an excessive number of additional faults the mk_pte primitive checks for PageDirty if the pgprot value allows for writes and pre-dirties the pte. That avoids all additional faults for tmpfs and shmem pages until these pages are added to the swap cache. Signed-off-by:

E.g. code like this: readl(addr); will generate the following compile warning: warning: value computed is not used [-Wunused-value] With this patch we get rid of dozens of compile warnings on s390.

As of now these default to calling the arch provided __copy_{to,from}_user() routines which being general purpose (w.r.t buffer alignment and lengths) would lead to alignment checks in generated code (for arches which don't support unaligned load/stores). Given that in this case we already know that data involved is "unit" sized and aligned, using the vanilla copy backend is a bit wasteful. This change thus allows arches to over-ride the aforementioned routines. Signed-off-by:

Add a list member to gpio_chip that allows all chips to be parsed quickly. The current method requires parsing the entire GPIO integer space, which is painfully slow. Using a list makes many chip operations that involve lookup or parsing faster, and also simplifies the code. It is also necessary to eventually get rid of the global gpio_desc[] array. The list of gpio_chips is always ordered by base GPIO number to ensure chips traversal is done in the right order. Signed-off-by:

If we want to stop the tick further idle, we need to be able to account the cputime without using the tick. Virtual based cputime accounting solves that problem by hooking into kernel/user boundaries. However implementing CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING require low level hooks and involves more overhead. But we already have a generic context tracking subsystem that is required for RCU needs by archs which plan to shut down the tick outside idle. This patch implements a generic virtual based cputime accounting that relies on these generic kernel/user hooks. There are some upsides of doing this: - This requires no arch code to implement CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING if context tracking is already built (already necessary for RCU in full tickless mode). - We can rely on the generic context tracking subsystem to dynamically (de)activate the hooks, so that we can switch anytime between virtual and tick based accounting. This way we don't have the overhead of the virtual accounting when the tick is running periodically. And one downside: - There is probably more overhead than a native virtual based cputime accounting. But this relies on hooks that are already set anyway. Signed-off-by:

If the architecture doesn't provide an implementation of nsecs_to_cputime(), the cputime accounting core uses a default one that converts the nanoseconds to jiffies. However this only makes sense if we use the jiffies based cputime. For now it doesn't matter much because this API is only called on code that uses jiffies based cputime accounting. But the code may evolve and this API may be used more broadly in the future. Keeping this default implementation around is very error prone as it may introduce a bug and hide it on architectures that don't override this API. Fix this by moving this definition to the jiffies based cputime headers as it is the only place where it belongs to. Signed-off-by:

The full dynticks cputime accounting that we'll soon introduce will rely on sched_clock(). And its clock can have a per nanosecond granularity. To prepare for this, we need to have a cputime_t implementation that has this precision. ia64 virtual cputime accounting already uses that granularity so all we need is to librarize its implementation in the asm generic headers. Also librarize the default per jiffy granularity cputime_t as well so that we can easily pick either implementation depending on the cputime accounting config we choose. Signed-off-by:

Some architectures (e.g. blackfin) provide gpio API without requiring GPIOLIB support (ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB). devm_gpio_* functions should also work for these architectures, since they do not really depend on GPIOLIB. Add a new option GPIO_DEVRES (enabled by default) to control the build of devres.c. It also removes the empty version of devm_gpio_* functions for !GENERIC_GPIO build from linux/gpio.h, and moves the function declarations from asm-generic/gpio.h into linux/gpio.h. Signed-off-by:

With the recent creation of the drivers/irqchip/ directory, it is desirable to move irq controller drivers here. At the moment, the only driver here is irq-bcm2835, the driver for the irq controller found in the ARM BCM2835 SoC, present in Rasberry Pi systems. This irq controller driver was exporting its initialization function and its irq handling function through a header file in <linux/irqchip/bcm2835.h>. When proposing to also move another irq controller driver in drivers/irqchip, Rob Herring raised the very valid point that moving things to drivers/irqchip was good in order to remove more stuff from arch/arm, but if it means adding gazillions of headers files in include/linux/irqchip/, it would not be very nice. So, upon the suggestion of Rob Herring and Arnd Bergmann, this commit introduces a small infrastructure that defines a central irqchip_init() function in drivers/irqchip/irqchip.c, which is meant to be called as the ->init_irq() callback of ARM platforms. This function calls of_irq_init() with an array of match strings and init functions generated from a special linker section. Note that the irq controller driver initialization function is responsible for setting the global handle_arch_irq() variable, so that ARM platforms no longer have to define the ->handle_irq field in their DT_MACHINE structure. A global header, <linux/irqchip.h> is also added to expose the single irqchip_init() function to the reset of the kernel. A further commit moves the BCM2835 irq controller driver to this new small infrastructure, therefore removing the include/linux/irqchip/ directory. Signed-off-by:

Since commit e303297e ("mm: extended batches for generic mmu_gather") we are batching pages to be freed until either tlb_next_batch cannot allocate a new batch or we are done. This works just fine most of the time but we can get in troubles with non-preemptible kernel (CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY) on large machines where too aggressive batching might lead to soft lockups during process exit path (exit_mmap) because there are no scheduling points down the free_pages_and_swap_cache path and so the freeing can take long enough to trigger the soft lockup. The lockup is harmless except when the system is setup to panic on softlockup which is not that unusual. The simplest way to work around this issue is to limit the maximum number of batches in a single mmu_gather. 10k of collected pages should be safe to prevent from soft lockups (we would have 2ms for one) even if they are all freed without an explicit scheduling point. This patch doesn't add any new explicit scheduling points because it relies on zap_pmd_range during page tables zapping which calls cond_resched per PMD. The following lockup has been reported for 3.0 kernel with a huge process (in order of hundreds gigs but I do know any more details). BUG: soft lockup - CPU#56 stuck for 22s!

Saner transition plan for GENERIC_SIGALTSTACK conversion - instead of adding #define sys_sigaltstack sys_sigaltstack in asm/syscalls.h of architecture if it's pulls asm-generic/syscalls.h, only to have those defines removed once all architectures are converted, make the declaration in said asm-generic/syscalls.h conditional on the lack of GENERIC_SIGALTSTACK. Less messy in intermediate stages that way... Signed-off-by:

We have two different implementation of is_zero_pfn() and my_zero_pfn() helpers: for architectures with and without zero page coloring. Let's consolidate them in <asm-generic/pgtable.h>. Signed-off-by:

Implement pte_numa and pmd_numa. We must atomically set the numa bit and clear the present bit to define a pte_numa or pmd_numa. Once a pte or pmd has been set as pte_numa or pmd_numa, the next time a thread touches a virtual address in the corresponding virtual range, a NUMA hinting page fault will trigger. The NUMA hinting page fault will clear the NUMA bit and set the present bit again to resolve the page fault. The expectation is that a NUMA hinting page fault is used as part of a placement policy that decides if a page should remain on the current node or migrated to a different node. Acked-by:

We need pte_present to return true for _PAGE_PROTNONE pages, to indicate that the pte is associated with a page. However, for TLB flushing purposes, we would like to know whether the pte points to an actually accessible page. This allows us to skip remote TLB flushes for pages that are not actually accessible. Fill in this method for x86 and provide a safe (but slower) method on other architectures. Signed-off-by:

No-MMU architectures often have support for FDPIC binaries. FDPIC support requires two additional fields in the mm_context_t struct. This patch adds these fields to the generic mm_context_t definition if support for FDPIC binaries is enabled. This allows to use the generic mmu.h for a few more architectures. Signed-off-by:

Nothing is using the vmlist field in mm_context_t anymore. It has been removed from the non-generic versions over 3 years ago 8feae131 ("NOMMU: Make VMAs per MM as for MMU-mode linux"). Signed-off-by:
