2008-05-19rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.hFranck Bui-Huu
Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h. This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this list.h without creating some circular dependencies. For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference() without including rcupdate.h. It actually compiles because users of rcu_dereference() are macros. Others RCU functions could be used too but aren't probably because of this. Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to many changes/troubles.

2008-05-19rcu: add rcu_barrier_sched() and rcu_barrier_bh()Paul E. McKenney
Add rcu_barrier_sched() and rcu_barrier_bh(). With these in place, rcutorture no longer gives the occasional oops when repeatedly starting and stopping torturing rcu_bh.

2008-05-19rcu: add memory barriers and comments to rcu_check_callbacks()Paul E. McKenney
Add comments to the logic that infers quiescent states when interrupting from either user mode or the idle loop. Also add a memory barrier: it appears that James Huang was in fact onto something, as the scheduler is much less synchronization happy than it once was, so we can no longer rely on its memory barriers in all cases.

2008-05-19rcu: add call_rcu_sched()Paul E. McKenney
Fourth cut of patch to provide the call_rcu_sched(). This is again to synchronize_sched() as call_rcu() is to synchronize_rcu(). Should be fine for experimental and -rt use, but not ready for inclusion. With some luck, I will be able to tell Andrew to come out of hiding on the next round. Passes multi-day rcutorture sessions with concurrent CPU hotplugging. Fixes since the first version include a bug that could result in indefinite blocking (spotted by Gautham Shenoy), better resiliency against CPU-hotplug operations, and other minor fixes. Fixes since the second version include reworking grace-period detection to avoid deadlocks that could happen when running concurrently with CPU hotplug, adding Mathieu's fix to avoid the softlockup messages, as well as Mathieu's fix to allow use earlier in boot. Fixes since the third version include a wrong-CPU bug spotted by Andrew, getting rid of the obsolete synchronize_kernel API that somehow snuck back in, merging spin_unlock() and local_irq_restore() in a few places, commenting the code that checks for quiescent states based on interrupting from user-mode execution or the idle loop, removing some inline attributes, and some code-style changes. Known/suspected shortcomings: o I still do not entirely trust the sleep/wakeup logic. Next step will be to use a private snapshot of the CPU online mask in rcu_sched_grace_period() -- if the CPU wasn't there at the start of the grace period, we don't need to hear from it. And the bit about accounting for changes in online CPUs inside of rcu_sched_grace_period() is ugly anyway. o It might be good for rcu_sched_grace_period() to invoke resched_cpu() when a given CPU wasn't responding quickly, but resched_cpu() is declared static... This patch also fixes a long-standing bug in the earlier preemptable-RCU implementation of synchronize_rcu() that could result in loss of concurrent external changes to a task's CPU affinity mask. I still cannot remember who reported this... Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2008-05-19rcupreempt: remove duplicate prototypesSteven Rostedt
rcu_batches_completed and rcu_patches_completed_bh are both declared in rcuclassic.h and rcupreempt.h. This patch removes the extra prototypes for them from rcupdate.h. rcu_batches_completed_bh is defined as a static inline in the rcupreempt.h header file. Trying to export this as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL causes linking problems with the powerpc linker. There's no need to export a static inlined function. Modules must be compiled with the same type of RCU implementation as the kernel they are for. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-05-17[ARM] 5037/1: Orion: fix DNS323/Kurobox Pro PCI initialisationLennert Buytenhek
Whereas most Orion 5x machine support code would initialise the PCI subsystem with nr_controllers in their struct hw_pci set to 2, the DNS323 and Kurobox Pro machine support code had nr_controllers set to 1. This was presumably done because on those two machines, the PCI(-X) controller (nr == 1) isn't used, requiring initialisation of only the PCIe controller (nr == 0.) However, not initialising the PCI(-X) controller on boards that don't use it leads to a situation where both the PCIe and the PCI(-X) controller think that their root bus is zero, and it messes up IRQ assignment. This patch changes the DNS323 and Kurobox Pro support code to always use nr_controllers == 2.

2008-05-17x86: disable mwait for AMD family 10H/11H CPUsThomas Gleixner
The previous revert of 0c07ee38c9d4eb081758f5ad14bbffa7197e1aec left out the mwait disable condition for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs. Andreas Herrman said: It depends on the CPU. For AMD CPUs that support MWAIT this is wrong. Family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs will enter C1 on HLT. Powersavings then depend on a clock divisor and current Pstate of the core. If all cores of a processor are in halt state (C1) the processor can enter the C1E (C1 enhanced) state. If mwait is used this will never happen. Thus HLT saves more power than MWAIT here. It might be best to switch off the mwait flag for these AMD CPU families like it was introduced with commit f039b754714a422959027cb18bb33760eb8153f0 (x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD Family 10) Re-add the AMD families 10H/11H check and disable the mwait usage for those.
