[PATCH] Optimize D-cache alias handling on fork

2006-12-13T17:27:08+00:00

Virtually index, physically tagged cache architectures can get away
without cache flushing when forking.  This patch adds a new cache
flushing function flush_cache_dup_mm(struct mm_struct *) which for the
moment I've implemented to do the same thing on all architectures
except on MIPS where it's a no-op.

[PATCH] tty: preparatory structures for termios revamp

2006-12-08T16:28:56+00:00

In order to sort out our struct termios and add proper speed control we need
to separate the kernel and user termios structures.  Glibc is fine but the
other libraries rely on the kernel exported struct termios and we need to
extend this without breaking the ABI/API

To do so we add a struct ktermios which is the kernel view of a termios
structure and overlaps the struct termios with extra fields on the end for
now.  (That limitation will go away in later patches).  Some platforms (eg
alpha) planned ahead and thus use the same struct for both, others did not.

This just adds the structures but does not use them, it seems a sensible
splitting point for bisect if there are compile failures (not that I expect
them)

[PATCH] cleanup asm/setup.h userspace visibility

2006-12-07T16:39:46+00:00

Make the contents of the userspace asm/setup.h header consistent on all
architectures:

 - export setup.h to userspace on all architectures
 - export only COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to userspace
 - frv: move COMMAND_LINE_SIZE from param.h
 - i386: remove duplicate COMMAND_LINE_SIZE from param.h
 - arm:
   - export ATAGs to userspace
   - change u8/u16/u32 to __u8/__u16/__u32

[PATCH] remove kernel syscalls

2006-12-07T16:39:37+00:00

The last thing we agreed on was to remove the macros entirely for 2.6.19,
on all architectures. Unfortunately, I think nobody actually _did_ that,
so they are still there.

[PATCH] slab: remove kmem_cache_t

2006-12-07T16:39:25+00:00

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	#!/bin/sh
	#
	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
		quilt refresh
	done

The script was run like this

	sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

Driver core: add dev_archdata to struct device

2006-12-01T22:52:01+00:00

Add arch specific dev_archdata to struct device

Adds an arch specific struct dev_arch to struct device. This enables
architecture to add specific fields to every device in the system, like
DMA operation pointers, NUMA node ID, firmware specific data, etc...

[PATCH] rename the provided execve functions to kernel_execve

2006-10-02T14:57:23+00:00

Some architectures provide an execve function that does not set errno, but
instead returns the result code directly.  Rename these to kernel_execve to
get the right semantics there.  Moreover, there is no reasone for any of these
architectures to still provide __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ or _syscallN macros, so
remove these right away.
