Implement __fls on all 64-bit archs:

alpha has an implementation of fls64.
	Added __fls(x) = fls64(x) - 1.

ia64 has fls, but not __fls.
	Added __fls based on code of fls.

mips and powerpc have __ilog2, which is the same as __fls.
	Added __fls = __ilog2.

parisc, s390, sh and sparc64:
	Include generic __fls.

x86_64 already has __fls.

forbid asm/bitops.h direct inclusion

Because of compile errors that may occur after bit changes if asm/bitops.h is
included directly without e.g.  linux/kernel.h which includes linux/bitops.h,
forbid direct inclusion of asm/bitops.h.  Thanks to Adrian Bunk.

Optimize ext2_find_next_zero_bit. Gives about 25% perf improvement with a
rsync test with ext3.

Signed-off-by: Randolph Chung &lt;tausq@parisc-linux.org&gt;

fix ext3 performance - ext2_find_next_zero() was culprit.
Kudos to jejb for pointing out the the possibility that ext2_test_bit
and ext2_find_next_zero() may in fact not be enumerating bits in
the bitmap because of endianess. Took sparc64 implementation and
adapted it to our tree. I suspect the real problem is ffz() wants
an unsigned long and was getting garbage in the top half of the
unsigned int. Not confirmed but that's what I suspect.

Fixup bitops.h to use volatile for *_bit() ops

Based on this email thread:
       http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=108826637900003

In a nutshell:
        *_bit() want use of volatile.
        __*_bit() are "relaxed" and don't use spinlock or volatile.

other minor changes:
o replaces hweight64() macro with alias to generic_hweight64() (Joel Soete)
o cleanup ext2* macros so (a) it's obvious what the XOR magic is about
  and (b) one version that works for both 32/64-bit.
o replace 2 uses of CONFIG_64BIT with __LP64__. bitops.h used both.
  I think header files that might go to user space should use
  something userspace will know about (__LP64__).

<title>[PATCH] spinlock consolidation</title>
<updated>2005-09-10T17:06:21+00:00</updated>

<id>fb1c8f93d869b34cacb8b8932e2b83d96a19d720</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code.  It does the following
things:

 - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code

 - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files

 - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
   features (such as -&gt;break_lock) into the generic code.

 - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.

Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
located in lib/spinlock_debug.c.  (previously we had one SMP debugging
variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)

Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
write-owners.  There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
spin/rwlock lockups.

The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
lives in the generic headers:

 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h     |   16

I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,
making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is:

   linux/spinlock_api_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_api_up.h
   linux/spinlock.h            |  linux/spinlock.h

All SMP and UP architectures are converted by this patch.

arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via
crosscompilers.  m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should
be mostly fine.

From: Grant Grundler &lt;grundler@parisc-linux.org&gt;

  Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU).
  Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested).  I did not try to build
  non-SMP kernels.  That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary.

  I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t.  Doing so avoids
  some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files.  Those particular locks
  are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code.  I do NOT
  expect any new issues to arise with them.

 If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will
  need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops
  that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW
  (load and clear word).

This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code.  It does the following
things:

 - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code

 - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files

 - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
   features (such as -&gt;break_lock) into the generic code.

 - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.

Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
located in lib/spinlock_debug.c.  (previously we had one SMP debugging
variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)

Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
write-owners.  There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
spin/rwlock lockups.

The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
lives in the generic headers:

 include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h       |   16
 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h     |   16
