vmlinux.lds: fix .data..init_task output section (fix popwerpc boot)

2010-07-23T03:45:12Z

The .data..init_task output section was missing a load offset causing a popwerpc target to fail to boot. Sean MacLennan tracked it down to the definition of INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION(). There are only two users of INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION() in the kernel today: cris and popwerpc. cris do not support relocatable kernels and is thus not impacted by this change. Fix INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION() to specify load offset like all other output sections. Reported-by: Sean MacLennan Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

tracing: Properly align linker defined symbols

2010-07-20T23:02:52Z

We define a number of symbols in the linker scipt like this: __start_syscalls_metadata = .; *(__syscalls_metadata) But we do not know the alignment of "." when we assign the __start_syscalls_metadata symbol. gcc started to uses bigger alignment for structs (32 bytes), so we saw situations where the linker due to alignment constraints increased the value of "." after the symbol assignment. This resulted in boot fails. Fix this by forcing a 32 byte alignment of "." before the assignment. This patch introduces the forced alignment for ftrace_events and syscalls_metadata. It may be required in more places.

numa: introduce numa_mem_id()- effective local memory node id

2010-05-27T16:12:57Z

Introduce numa_mem_id(), based on generic percpu variable infrastructure to track "nearest node with memory" for archs that support memoryless nodes. Define API in when CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES defined, else stubs. Architectures will define HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES if/when they support them. Archs can override definitions of: numa_mem_id() - returns node number of "local memory" node set_numa_mem() - initialize [this cpus'] per cpu variable 'numa_mem' cpu_to_mem() - return numa_mem for specified cpu; may be used as lvalue Generic initialization of 'numa_mem' occurs in __build_all_zonelists(). This will initialize the boot cpu at boot time, and all cpus on change of numa_zonelist_order, or when node or memory hot-plug requires zonelist rebuild. Archs that support memoryless nodes will need to initialize 'numa_mem' for secondary cpus as they're brought on-line.

asm-generic: remove ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN in scatterlist.h

2010-05-27T16:12:54Z

There are more architectures that don't support ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN than those that support it. This removes removes ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN in asm-generic/scatterlist.h and lets arhictectures to define it. It's clearer than defining ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN asm-generic/scatterlist.h and undefing it in arhictectures that don't support it.

asm-generic: add NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH to define sg_dma_len()

2010-05-27T16:12:54Z

There are only two ways to define sg_dma_len(); use sg->dma_length or sg->length. This patch introduces NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH that enables architectures to choose sg->dma_length or sg->length.

asm-generic: remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in scatterlist.h

2010-05-27T16:12:54Z

This is the first half of the attempt to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h on every architecture. There are only two ways to define scatterlist structure. So it's easy to convert every architecture to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h. This patch: The trick for ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in asm-generic/scatterlist.h doesn't work for powerpc. This lets architectures defin ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD. Hopefully, we can remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in the future; we can do better to decide if the bouncing is necessary or not.
