* [PATCH] uml: fix epollJeff Dike2007-03-271-0/+7

* [PATCH] epoll: use unlocked wqueue operationsDavide Libenzi2006-06-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A few days ago Arjan signaled a lockdep red flag on epoll locks, and precisely between the epoll's device structure lock (->lock) and the wait queue head lock (->lock). Like I explained in another email, and directly to Arjan, this can't happen in reality because of the explicit check at eventpoll.c:592, that does not allow to drop an epoll fd inside the same epoll fd. Since lockdep is working on per-structure locks, it will never be able to know of policies enforced in other parts of the code. It was decided time ago of having the ability to drop epoll fds inside other epoll fds, that triggers a very trick wakeup operations (due to possibly reentrant callback-driven wakeups) handled by the ep_poll_safewake() function. While looking again at the code though, I noticed that all the operations done on the epoll's main structure wait queue head (->wq) are already protected by the epoll lock (->lock), so that locked-style functions can be used to manipulate the ->wq member. This makes both a lock-acquire save, and lockdep happy. Running totalmess on my dual opteron for a while did not reveal any problem so far: http://www.xmailserver.org/totalmess.c Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] get_empty_filp tweaks, inline epoll_init_file()Benjamin LaHaise2006-03-231-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Eliminate a handful of cache references by keeping current in a register instead of reloading (helps x86) and avoiding the overhead of a function call. Inlining eventpoll_init_file() saves 24 bytes. Also reorder file initialization to make writes occur more sequentially.

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!
