Remove GENERIC_HARDIRQ config option

2013-09-13T13:09:52Z

After the last architecture switched to generic hard irqs the config options HAVE_GENERIC_HARDIRQS & GENERIC_HARDIRQS and the related code for !CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS can be removed. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

arch: mm: pass userspace fault flag to generic fault handler

2013-09-12T22:38:01Z

Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from user-triggered faults. Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM handling can be improved.

arch: mm: remove obsolete init OOM protection

2013-09-12T22:38:01Z

The memcg code can trap tasks in the context of the failing allocation until an OOM situation is resolved. They can hold all kinds of locks (fs, mm) at this point, which makes it prone to deadlocking. This series converts memcg OOM handling into a two step process that is started in the charge context, but any waiting is done after the fault stack is fully unwound. Patches 1-4 prepare architecture handlers to support the new memcg requirements, but in doing so they also remove old cruft and unify out-of-memory behavior across architectures. Patch 5 disables the memcg OOM handling for syscalls, readahead, kernel faults, because they can gracefully unwind the stack with -ENOMEM. OOM handling is restricted to user triggered faults that have no other option. Patch 6 reworks memcg's hierarchical OOM locking to make it a little more obvious wth is going on in there: reduce locked regions, rename locking functions, reorder and document. Patch 7 implements the two-part OOM handling such that tasks are never trapped with the full charge stack in an OOM situation. This patch: Back before smart OOM killing, when faulting tasks were killed directly on allocation failures, the arch-specific fault handlers needed special protection for the init process. Now that all fault handlers call into the generic OOM killer (see commit 609838cfed97: "mm: invoke oom-killer from remaining unconverted page fault handlers"), which already provides init protection, the arch-specific leftovers can be removed.

ARC: SMP failed to boot due to missing IVT setup

2013-09-12T14:40:08Z

Commit 05b016ecf5e7a "ARC: Setup Vector Table Base in early boot" moved the Interrupt vector Table setup out of arc_init_IRQ() which is called for all CPUs, to entry point of boot cpu only, breaking booting of others. Fix by adding the same to entry point of non-boot CPUs too. read_arc_build_cfg_regs() printing IVT Base Register didn't help the casue since it prints a synthetic value if zero which is totally bogus, so fix that to print the exact Register.

Merge tag 'devicetree-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux

Pull device tree core updates from Grant Likely: "Generally minor changes. A bunch of bug fixes, particularly for initialization and some refactoring. Most notable change if feeding the entire flattened tree into the random pool at boot. May not be significant, but shouldn't hurt either" Tim Bird questions whether the boot time cost of the random feeding may be noticeable.

ARC: Fix __udelay calculation

2013-09-05T05:01:12Z

Cast usecs to u64, to ensure that the (usecs * 4295 * HZ) multiplication is 64 bit. Initially, the (usecs * 4295 * HZ) part was done as a 32 bit multiplication, with the result casted to 64 bit. This led to some bits falling off, causing a "DMA initialization error" in the stmmac Ethernet driver, due to a premature timeout. Signed-off-by: Mischa Jonker Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta
