irq: Kill pointless irqd_to_hw export

2012-04-11T04:39:17+00:00

It makes no sense to export this trivial function.  Make it a static inline
instead.

This patch also drops virq_to_hw from arch/c6x since it is unused by that
architecture.

v2: Move irq_hw_number_t into types.h to fix ARM build failure

Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)

2012-04-05T22:30:34+00:00

Merge batch of fixes from Andrew Morton:
 "The simple_open() cleanup was held back while I wanted for laggards to
  merge things.

  I still need to send a few checkpoint/restore patches.  I've been
  wobbly about merging them because I'm wobbly about the overall
  prospects for success of the project.  But after speaking with Pavel
  at the LSF conference, it sounds like they're further toward
  completion than I feared - apparently davem is at the "has stopped
  complaining" stage regarding the net changes.  So I need to go back
  and re-review those patchs and their (lengthy) discussion."

C6X: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask()

2012-04-05T22:25:51+00:00

As described in e6fa16ab9c1e ("signal: sigprocmask() should do
retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is
incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is
pending in the shared queue.

Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f
("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate
code across architectures.  In the past some architectures got this code
wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening
again.

Merge tag 'irqdomain-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6

2012-03-21T17:27:19+00:00

Pull irq_domain support for all architectures from Grant Likely:
 "Generialize powerpc's irq_host as irq_domain

  This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping
  from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it,
  renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures.

  Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain
  implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such
  as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far
  more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and
  refactoring it in-place.  So, this branch rips out the 'new'
  irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a
  fully bisectable way of course).  It converts all users over to the
  new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture.

  No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure
  is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations.  It will
  even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for
  translating irqs at boot time.  MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x
  are converted too.

  The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be
  optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for
  follow-on patches."

C6X: remove dead code from entry.S

2012-03-16T13:27:57+00:00

The ENDPROC() on sys_fadvise64_c6x() in arch/c6x/kernel/entry.S is
outside of the conditional block with the matching ENTRY() macro. This
leads a newer (v2.22 vs. v2.20) assembler to complain:

  /tmp/ccGZBaPT.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/ccGZBaPT.s: Error: .size expression for sys_fadvise64_c6x does not evaluate to a constant

The conditional block became dead code when c6x switched to generic
unistd.h and should be removed along with the offending ENDPROC().

irq_domain/c6x: Convert c6x to use generic irq_domain support.

2012-02-16T13:11:24+00:00

The C6X IRQ support was copied almost verbatim from the PowerPC virtual IRQ
code. The PowerPC code was used as the basis for generic irq_domain support,
so this patch mostly copies what what done to arch/powerpc by Grant Likely
in his irq_domain patch series.
