Detach sched.h from mm.h

2007-05-21T16:18:19+00:00

First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up
	arm
	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig
	ia64 ia64-up
	m68k
	mips
	parisc parisc-up
	powerpc powerpc-up
	s390 s390-up
	sparc sparc-up
	sparc64 sparc64-up
	um-x86_64
	x86_64 x86_64-up x86_64-defconfig x86_64-allnoconfig

as well as my two usual configs.

header cleaning: don't include smp_lock.h when not used

2007-05-08T18:15:07+00:00

Remove includes of  where it is not used/needed.
Suggested by Al Viro.

Builds cleanly on x86_64, i386, alpha, ia64, powerpc, sparc,
sparc64, and arm (all 59 defconfigs).

[PATCH] pipe.c/fifo.c code cleanups

2006-04-11T11:53:33+00:00

more code cleanups after the macro conversion:

 - standardize on 'struct pipe_inode_info *pipe' variable names
 - introduce 'pipe' temporaries to reduce mass inode->i_pipe dereferencing

[PATCH] introduce a "kernel-internal pipe object" abstraction

2006-04-10T13:18:35+00:00

separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it
usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the
internal splice APIs and the pipe code:

 - pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric
   and more streamlined with existing kernel practices.

 - splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice
   methods

Update XFS for the ->splice_read/->splice_write changes.

[PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ const

2006-03-28T17:16:06+00:00

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const.  Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

Simplify fifo_open() locking logic

2006-03-07T17:16:35+00:00

We don't do interruptible waits for the pipe mutex anywhere else any
more either, so don't do it in fifo_open() either.

[PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: VFS, ->i_sem

2006-01-09T23:59:24+00:00

This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on
XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your
luck with it might be different.
