| * [CPUFREQ] Processor Clocking Control interface driverNaga Chumbalkar2010-01-131-0/+207
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the BIOS and OSPM. Based on the server workload, OSPM can request what frequency it expects from a logical CPU, and the BIOS will achieve that frequency transparently. This patch introduces driver support for PCC. OSPM uses the PCC driver to communicate with the BIOS via the PCC interface. There is a Documentation file that provides a link to the PCC Specification, and also provides a summary of the PCC interface. Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. However, any platform whose BIOS implements the PCC Specification, can utilize this driver. V2 --> V1 changes (based on Dominik's suggestions): - Removed the dependency on CPU_FREQ_TABLE - "cpufreq_stats" will no longer PANIC. Actually, it will not load anymore because it is not applicable. - Removed the sanity check for target frequency in the ->target routine. NOTE: A patch to sanitize the target frequency requested by "ondemand" is needed to ensure that the target freq < policy->min. Can this driver be queued up for the 2.6.33 tree?

This implementation fits very well in our standard sysfs interface. I implemented the old and not the new interface because the only chip I have at hand is an old one, and the new interface is more difficult to map to the standard sysfs interface. Adding support later should be possible though, if someone with a supported chip is interested. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

And this information will give some hints to oom-killer. Besides we can count the number of swapents per a process by scanning /proc/<pid>/smaps, this is very slow and not good for usual process information handler which works like 'ps' or 'top'. (ps or top is now enough slow..) This patch adds a counter of swapents to mm_counter and update is at each swap events.

This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter. RSS value will be counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at events. Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault. Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls. rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows [before] 4.5 cache-miss/faults [after] 4.0 cache-miss/faults Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.

VERBOSE_IDE_CD_ERRORS has been replace by config option CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD_VERBOSE_ERRORS. STANDARD_ATAPI is no longer needed, since the non-standard drivers, which required bcd2bin are now detected, and there's a flag for them. NO_DOOR_LOCKING is now a sysctl parameter for cdrom drivers. CDROM_NBLOCKS_BUFFER is not used anymore. The READAUDIO is now in cdrom.c and it allocates as much as user space has requested to read, backing off if it fails. TEST is not there anymore or in cdrom either. ide allows to send ATA commands through ioctl, although it may be helpful to send MMC packets through the cdrom layer directly.

All off the 83xx device trees in arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ specify 5 interrupts per DMA controller: one for the controller, and one for each channel. These interrupts are all attached to the same IRQ line. This causes an interesting situation if two channels interrupt at the same time. The per-controller handler will handle the first channel, and the per-channel handler will handle the remaining channels. Instead of this mess, we fix the bug in the per-controller handler, and make it handle all channels that generated an interrupt. When a per-controller handler is specified in the device tree, we prefer to use the shared handler instead of the per-channel handler. The 85xx/86xx controllers do not have a per-controller interrupt, and instead use a per-channel interrupt. This behavior has not been changed. Signed-off-by: Ira W.

As it already has been deprecated for years, with its removal long overdue, limit it to !SMP and !PREEMPT. Furthermore, the last legitimate use of the ioctl to be reported relates to the ARM architecture in 2008.[1] Attempts to resolve this issue turned out unsuccessful so far.[2] Other usages have only been reported as hear-say. If there are any legitiate and necessary use-cases remaining, please speak out before the end of the grace period until 2.6.3{5,6}(-rc1).
