timekeeping: default GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS to enabled

2020-10-30T20:57:07+00:00

Almost all machines use GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, so it feels wrong to
require each one to select that symbol manually.

Instead, enable it whenever CONFIG_LEGACY_TIMER_TICK is disabled as
a simplification. It should be possible to select both
GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and LEGACY_TIMER_TICK from an architecture now
and decide at runtime between the two.

For the clockevents arch-support.txt file, this means that additional
architectures are marked as TODO when they have at least one machine
that still uses LEGACY_TIMER_TICK, rather than being marked 'ok' when
at least one machine has been converted. This means that both m68k and
arm (for riscpc) revert to TODO.

At this point, we could just always enable CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS
rather than leaving it off when not needed. I built an m68k
defconfig kernel (using gcc-10.1.0) and found that this would add
around 5.5KB in kernel image size:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
3861936	1092236	 196656	5150828	 4e986c	obj-m68k/vmlinux-no-clockevent
3866201	1093832	 196184	5156217	 4ead79	obj-m68k/vmlinux-clockevent

On Arm (MACH_RPC), that difference appears to be twice as large,
around 11KB on top of an 6MB vmlinux.

uaccess: add infrastructure for kernel builds with set_fs()

2020-09-09T02:21:32+00:00

Add a CONFIG_SET_FS option that is selected by architecturess that
implement set_fs, which is all of them initially.  If the option is not
set stubs for routines related to overriding the address space are
provided so that architectures can start to opt out of providing set_fs.

h8300: Remove redundant CLKDEV_LOOKUP selects

2020-05-05T19:34:01+00:00

The h8300 architecture selects COMMON_CLK already, and the COMMON_CLK
config option already selects CLKDEV_LOOKUP so it's redundant to have
this selected again.

     This is a series doing two somewhat interwinded things. It improves
     the asm-generic nommu uaccess helper to optionally be entirely
     generic and not require any arch helpers for the actual uaccess.
     For the generic uaccess.h to actually be generically useful I also
     had to kill off the mess we made of , which really
     shouldn't exist on most architectures"

locking/rwsem: Remove rwsem-spinlock.c & use rwsem-xadd.c for all archs

2019-04-03T12:50:52+00:00

Currently, we have two different implementation of rwsem:

 1) CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK (rwsem-spinlock.c)
 2) CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM (rwsem-xadd.c)

As we are going to use a single generic implementation for rwsem-xadd.c
and no architecture-specific code will be needed, there is no point
in keeping two different implementations of rwsem. In most cases, the
performance of rwsem-spinlock.c will be worse. It also doesn't get all
the performance tuning and optimizations that had been implemented in
rwsem-xadd.c over the years.

For simplication, we are going to remove rwsem-spinlock.c and make all
architectures use a single implementation of rwsem - rwsem-xadd.c.

All references to RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK and RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM
in the code are removed.
