All Arch: remove linkage for sys_nfsservctl system call

2011-08-26T22:09:58+00:00

The nfsservctl system call is now gone, so we should remove all
linkage for it.

Add Kconfig option ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG

2011-08-03T15:12:37+00:00

cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless
code.  But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not
NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a
spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation.

This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that
NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different
implementation according to it.

On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific
operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch
only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

atomic: cleanup asm-generic atomic*.h inclusion

2011-07-26T23:49:47+00:00

After changing all consumers of atomics to include , we
ran into some compile time errors due to this dependency chain:

linux/atomic.h
  -> asm/atomic.h
    -> asm-generic/atomic-long.h

where atomic-long.h could use funcs defined later in linux/atomic.h
without a prototype.  This patches moves the code that includes
asm-generic/atomic*.h to linux/atomic.h.

Archs that need  need to select
CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 from now on (some of them used to include it
unconditionally).

Compile tested on i386 and x86_64 with allnoconfig.

asm-generic: add another generic ext2 atomic bitops

2011-07-26T23:49:46+00:00

The majority of architectures implement ext2 atomic bitops as
test_and_{set,clear}_bit() without spinlock.

This adds this type of generic implementation in ext2-atomic-setbit.h and
use it wherever possible.

frv, exec: remove redundant set_fs(USER_DS)

2011-07-26T23:49:41+00:00

The address limit is already set in flush_old_exec() so those calls to
set_fs(USER_DS) are redundant.

Also removed the dead code in flush_thread().
