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.

Fix node_start/end_pfn() definition for mm/page_cgroup.c

2011-06-27T21:13:09+00:00

commit 21a3c96 uses node_start/end_pfn(nid) for detection start/end
of nodes. But, it's not defined in linux/mmzone.h but defined in
/arch/???/include/mmzone.h which is included only under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y.

Then, we see
  mm/page_cgroup.c: In function 'page_cgroup_init':
  mm/page_cgroup.c:308: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_start_pfn'
  mm/page_cgroup.c:309: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_end_pfn'

So, fixiing page_cgroup.c is an idea...

But node_start_pfn()/node_end_pfn() is a very generic macro and
should be implemented in the same manner for all archs.
(m32r has different implementation...)

This patch removes definitions of node_start/end_pfn() in each archs
and defines a unified one in linux/mmzone.h. It's not under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, now.

A result of macro expansion is here (mm/page_cgroup.c)

for !NUMA
 start_pfn = ((&contig_page_data)->node_start_pfn);
  end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (&contig_page_data); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});

for NUMA (x86-64)
  start_pfn = ((node_data[nid])->node_start_pfn);
  end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (node_data[nid]); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});

Changelog:
 - fixed to avoid using "nid" twice in node_end_pfn() macro.

arch/tile: remove useless set_fixmap_nocache() macro

2011-06-15T14:35:38+00:00

TILE doesn't support PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE so the macro isn't useful;
it's a copy-and-paste from the first version of this header in 2007.

arch/tile: add hypervisor-based character driver for SPI flash ROM

2011-06-10T17:07:48+00:00

The first version of this patch proposed an arch/tile/drivers/ directory,
but the consensus was that this was probably a poor choice for a place to
group Tilera-specific drivers, and that in any case grouping by platform
was discouraged, and grouping by function was preferred.

This version of the patch addresses various issues raised in the
community, primarily the absence of sysfs integration.  The sysfs
integration now handles passing information on sector size, page size,
and total partition size to userspace as well.  In addition, we now
use a single "struct cdev" to manage all the partition minor devices,
and dynamically discover the correct number of partitions from the
hypervisor rather than using a module_param with a default value.

This driver has no particular "peer" drivers it can be grouped with.
It is sort of like an MTD driver for SPI ROM, but it doesn't group well
with the other MTD devices since it relies on hypervisor virtualization
to handle many of the irritating aspects of flash ROM management: sector
awareness, background read for sub-sector writes, bit examination to
determine whether a sector erase needs to be issued, etc.  It is in fact
more like an EEPROM driver, but the hypervisor virtualization does require
a "flush" command if you wish to commit a sector write prior to writing
to a different sector, and this is sufficiently different from generic
I2C/SPI EEPROMs that as a result it doesn't group well with them either.

The simple character device is already in use by a range of Tilera
SPI ROM management tools, as well as by customers.  In addition, using
the simple character device actually simplifies the userspace tools,
since they don't need to manage sector erase, background read, etc.
This both simplifies the code (since we can uniformly manage plain files
and the SPI ROM) as well as makes the user code portable to non-Linux
platforms that don't offer the same MTD ioctls.
