2008-04-09[IA64] fix getpid and set_tid_address fast system calls for pid namespacesPavel Emelyanov
The sys_getpid() and sys_set_tid_address() behavior changed from return current->tgid to struct pid *pid; pid = current->pids[PIDTYPE_PID].pid; return pid->numbers[pid->level].nr; But the fast system calls on ia64 still operate the old way. Patch them appropriately to let ia64 work with pid namespaces. Besides, this is one more step in deprecating of pid and tgid on task_struct. The fsys_getppid() is to be patched as well, but its logic is much more complex now, so I will make it later. One thing I'm not 100% sure is the trick with the IA64_UPID_SHIFT. On order to access the pid->level's element of an array I have to perform the following calculations pid + sizeof(struct upid) * pid->level The problem is that ia64 can only multiply float point registers, while all the offsets I have in code are in rXX ones. Fortunately, the sizeof(struct upid) is 32 bytes on ia64 (and is very unlikely to ever change), so the calculations get simpler: pid + pid->level << 5 So, I introduce the IA64_UPID_SHIFT and use the shl instruction. I also looked at how gcc compiles the similar place and found that it makes it with shift as well. Is this OK to do so? Tested with ski emulator with 2.6.24 kernel, but fits 2.6.25-rc4 and 2.6.25-rc4-mm1 as well.

2008-02-20[IA64] VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING (accurate cpu time accounting)Hidetoshi Seto
This patch implements VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING for ia64, which enable us to use more accurate cpu time accounting. The VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is an item of kernel config, which s390 and powerpc arch have. By turning this config on, these archs change the mechanism of cpu time accounting from tick-sampling based one to state-transition based one. The state-transition based accounting is done by checking time (cycle counter in processor) at every state-transition point, such as entrance/exit of kernel, interrupt, softirq etc. The difference between point to point is the actual time consumed during in the state. There is no doubt about that this value is more accurate than that of tick-sampling based accounting.

2007-03-07[IA64] fsys_getcpu for IA64Fenghua Yu
On 1.6GHz Montectio Tiger4, the following performance data is measured with kernel built with defconfig which has NUMA configured: Fastest sys_getcpu: 502 itc counts. Fastest fsys_getcpu: 28 itc counts. fsys_getcpu performance is largly impacted by whether data (node_to_cpu_map etc) is in cache. It can take fsys_getcpu up to ~150 itc counts in cold cache case.

2006-06-21[IA64] Sanitize assembler code for ia64_sal_os_stateKeith Owens
struct ia64_sal_os_state has three semi-independent sections. The code in mca_asm.S assumes that these three sections are contiguous, which makes it very awkward to add new data to this structure. Remove the assumption that the sections are contiguous. Define a macro to shorten references to offsets in ia64_sal_os_state. This patch does not change the way that the code behaves. It just makes it easier to update the code in future and to add fields to ia64_sal_os_state when debugging the MCA/INIT handlers.

2005-09-11[PATCH] MCA/INIT: use per cpu stacksKeith Owens
The bulk of the change. Use per cpu MCA/INIT stacks. Change the SAL to OS state (sos) to be per process. Do all the assembler work on the MCA/INIT stacks, leaving the original stack alone. Pass per cpu state data to the C handlers for MCA and INIT, which also means changing the mca_drv interfaces slightly. Lots of verification on whether the original stack is usable before converting it to a sleeping process. Signed-off-by: Keith Owens <kaos@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
