|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-tip * 'bzip2-lzma-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-tip: bzip2/lzma: quiet Kconfig warning for INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE
| * bzip2/lzma: quiet Kconfig warning for INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONEH. Peter Anvin2009-03-312-17/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: quiet Kconfig warning It appears that Kconfig simply has no way to provide defaults for entries that exist inside a conditionalized choice block. Fortunately, it turns out we don't actually ever use CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE, so we can just drop it for everything outside the choice block. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

This is simply fixed by checking for NULL (which gcc optimizes out anyway of CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n, since it knows ce1_mask can never be NULL). In addition, fix a leak where select_idle_routine re-allocates (and re-clears) c1e_mask on every cpu init.

One day gcc could bite us over this usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far). So replace everywhere which used &CPU_MASK_ALL or CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR with the modern "cpu_all_mask" (a real const struct cpumask *), and remove CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR altogether.

When people open-code it they seem to use fixed numbers rather than strlen, so it's quite a readability win (also, strncmp() almost always wants != 0 on it). So here's strstarts().

"static inline strstarts(...)" becomes non-inline, and refers to the other string ops. The simplest workaround is to include asm/string.h. This makes sense anyway, since lib/string.c won't be linked against this so we can't use those functions anyway. Compile tested here.

We only do stop_machine_create() so we can unlink the module if something goes wrong, but it's overkill (and buggy anyway: if stop_machine_create() fails we still call stop_machine_destroy()). Since we are only protecting against kallsyms (esp. oops) walking the list, synchronize_sched() is sufficient (synchronize_rcu() is probably sufficient, but we're not in a hurry). Kay says of this patch: ... no module takes more than 40 millisecs to link now, most of them are between 3 and 8 millisecs. That looks very different to the numbers without this patch and the otherwise same setup, where we get heavy noise in the traces and many delays of up to 200 millisecs until linking, most of them taking 30+ millisecs.

Currently this would deadlock. As a result, several drivers go through hoops like scheduling things via kevent, or creating custom work queues (because kevent can deadlock on them). This patch changes this to use a request_module_nowait() function macro instead, which just fires the modprobe off but doesn't wait for it, and thus avoids the original deadlock entirely. On my laptop this already results in one less kernel thread running..
