It does the following\nthings:\n\n - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code\n\n - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files\n\n - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock\n features (such as -\u003ebreak_lock) into the generic code.\n\n - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.\n\nMost notably there\u0027s now only a single variant of the debugging code,\nlocated in lib/spinlock_debug.c. (previously we had one SMP debugging\nvariant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)\n\nAlso, i\u0027ve enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track\nwrite-owners. There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.\nAll locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard\nspin/rwlock lockups.\n\nThe arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary\nsubset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now\nlives in the generic headers:\n\n include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h | 16\n include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h | 16\n\nI have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,\nmaking it easier to see which does what.

The uncached allocator was formerly part of the SN2\nmspec driver but there are several other users of it so it has been split\noff from the driver.\n\nThe generic allocator can be used by device driver to manage special memory\netc. The generic allocator is based on the allocator from the sym53c8xx_2\ndriver.\n\nVarious users on ia64 needs uncached memory. The SGI SN architecture requires\nit for inter-partition communication between partitions within a large NUMA\ncluster. The specific user for this is the XPC code. Another application is\nlarge MPI style applications which use it for synchronization, on SN this can\nbe done using special \u0027fetchop\u0027 operations but it also benefits non SN\nhardware which may use regular uncached memory for this purpose. Performance\nof doing this through uncached vs cached memory is pretty substantial. This\nis handled by the mspec driver which I will push out in a seperate patch.\n\nRather than creating a specific allocator for just uncached memory I came up\nwith genalloc which is a generic purpose allocator that can be used by device\ndrivers and other subsystems as they please. For instance to handle onboard\ndevice memory. It was derived from the sym53c7xx_2 driver\u0027s allocator which\nis also an example of a potential user (I am refraining from modifying sym2\nright now as it seems to have been under fairly heavy development recently).\n\nOn ia64 memory has various properties within a granule, ie. it isn\u0027t safe to\naccess memory as uncached within the same granule as currently has memory\naccessed in cached mode. The regular system therefore doesn\u0027t utilize memory\nin the lower granules which is mixed in with device PAL code etc. The\nuncached driver walks the EFI memmap and pulls out the spill uncached pages\nand sticks them into the uncached pool. Only after these chunks have been\nutilized, will it start converting regular cached memory into uncached memory.\nHence the reason for the EFI related code additions.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jes Sorensen \u003cjes@wildopensource.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "39c715b71740c4a78ba4769fb54826929bac03cb", "tree": "94dd679dfc8e6c2db65971739aa8c8c6206f8174", "parents": [ "84929801e14d968caeb84795bfbb88f04283fbd9" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Tue Jun 21 17:14:34 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@ppc970.osdl.org", "time": "Tue Jun 21 18:46:13 2005 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] smp_processor_id() cleanup\n\nThis patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that\nArjan van de Ven and I came up with.\n\nThe previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API\nspaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the\nusage side.\n\nSome of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the\ncomplexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined\n__smp_processor_id.\n\nIn the new code, there are two externally visible symbols:\n\n - smp_processor_id(): debug variant.\n\n - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant.

There\u0027s even evidence that some of these BE bus and\nchip types are attached to LE systems. Thus, there\u0027s a need for a BE\nequivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations.\n\nThe attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be. When it\u0027s in,\nI\u0027ll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).\n\nSigned-off-by: James Bottomley \u003cJames.Bottomley@SteelEye.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "tree": "0bba044c4ce775e45a88a51686b5d9f90697ea9d", "parents": [], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@ppc970.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Apr 16 15:20:36 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@ppc970.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Apr 16 15:20:36 2005 -0700" }, "message": "Linux-2.6.12-rc2\n\nInitial git repository build.
