2005-10-31[PATCH] noop-iosched: avoid corrupted request mergingJens Axboe
Tejun Heo notes: "I'm currently debugging this. The problem is that we are using the generic dispatch queue directly in the noop sched and merging is NOT allowed on dispatch queues but generic handling of last_merge tries to merge requests. I'm still trying to verify this, so I'll be back with results soon." In the meantime, disable merging for noop by setting REQ_NOMERGE in elevator_noop_add_request(). Eventually, we should add a noop_list and do the dispatching like in the other io schedulers. Merging is still beneficial for noop (and it has always done it).

2005-10-30[libata] locking rewrite (== fix)Jeff Garzik
A lot of power packed into a little patch. This change eliminates the sharing between our controller-wide spinlock and the SCSI core's Scsi_Host lock. As the locking in libata was already highly compartmentalized, always referencing our own lock, and never scsi_host::host_lock. As a side effect, this change eliminates a deadlock from calling scsi_finish_command() while inside our spinlock.

Integrate ata_exec() and ata_tf_to_host() into their only caller, ata_bus_edd(). Rename ata_tf_to_host_nolock() to ata_tf_to_host(). This makes locking a bit easier to review, and may help pave the way for future changes.

2005-10-31powerpc: Fix bug arising from having multiple memory_limit variablesPaul Mackerras
We had a static memory_limit in prom.c, and then another one defined in setup_64.c and used in numa.c, which resulted in the kernel crashing when mem=xxx was given on the command line. This puts the declaration in system.h and the definition in mem.c. This also moves the definition of tce_alloc_start/end out of setup_64.c. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2005-10-30[PATCH] fix missing includesTim Schmielau
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

This patch removes checks for ->si_code == SI_TIMER from send_signal, specific_send_sig_info, __group_send_sig_info.

2005-10-30[PATCH] hpet-RTC: cache the comparator registerClemens Ladisch
Reads from an HPET register require a round trip to the south bridge and are almost as slow as PCI reads. By caching the last value we've written to the comparator register, we can eliminate all HPET reads from the fast path in the emulated RTC interrupt handler.

2005-10-30[PATCH] hpet-RTC: fix timer config register accessesClemens Ladisch
Make sure that the RTC timer is in non-periodic mode; some stupid BIOS might have initialized it to periodic mode. Furthermore, don't set the SETVAL bit in the config register. This wouldn't have any effect unless the timer was in period mode (which it isn't), and then the actual timer frequency would be half that of the desired one because incrementing the comparator in the interrupt handler would be done after the hardware has already incremented it itself.

2005-10-30[PATCH] hpet-RTC: disable interrupt when no longer neededClemens Ladisch
When the emulated RTC interrupt is no longer needed, we better disable it; otherwise, we get a spurious interrupt whenever the timer has rolled over and reaches the same comparator value. Having a superfluous interrupt every five minutes doesn't hurt much, but it's bad style anyway. ;-) Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de> Acked-by: "Pallipadi, Venkatesh" <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-10-30[PATCH] hpet: allow shared interruptsClemens Ladisch
This patch adds support for shared HPET interrupts. The driver previously acknowledged interrupts for both edge and level interrupts, but didn't actually allow a shared interrupt in the latter case. We use a new per-timer flag to save whether the timer's interrupt might be shared, and use it to do the processing required for level interrupts only if necessary.

2005-10-30[PATCH] HPET: make frequency calculations 32 bit safeClemens Ladisch
On 32-bit architectures, the multiplication in the argument for hpet_time_div() often overflows. In the typical case of a 14.32 MHz timer, this happens when the desired frequency exceeds 61 Hz. To avoid this multiplication, we can precompute and store the hardware timer frequency, instead of the period, in the device structure, which leaves us with a simple division when computing the number of timer ticks. As a side effect, this also removes a theoretical bug where the timer interpolator's frequency would be computed as a 32-bit value even if the HPET frequency is greater than 2^32 Hz (the HPET spec allows up to 10 GHz).
