Revert "sched: Add wrapper for get_wchan() to keep task blocked"

2021-11-18T13:01:34+00:00

This reverts commit e9ede14c116f1a6246eee89d320d60a90a86b5d5 which is
commit 42a20f86dc19f9282d974df0ba4d226c865ab9dd upstream.

It has been reported to be causing problems, and is being reworked
upstream and has been dropped from the current 5.15.y stable queue until
it gets resolved.

sched: Add wrapper for get_wchan() to keep task blocked

2021-11-17T10:04:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 42a20f86dc19f9282d974df0ba4d226c865ab9dd ]

Having a stable wchan means the process must be blocked and for it to
stay that way while performing stack unwinding.

arch: setup PF_IO_WORKER threads like PF_KTHREAD

2021-02-22T00:25:22+00:00

PF_IO_WORKER are kernel threads too, but they aren't PF_KTHREAD in the
sense that we don't assign ->set_child_tid with our own structure. Just
ensure that every arch sets up the PF_IO_WORKER threads like kthreads
in the arch implementation of copy_thread().

alpha: replace bogus in_interrupt()

2020-12-16T06:46:15+00:00

in_interrupt() is true for a variety of things including bottom half
disabled regions.  Deducing hard interrupt context from it is dubious at
best.

Use in_irq() which is true if called in hard interrupt context.  Otherwise
calling irq_exit() would do more harm than good.

sched/idle: Fix arch_cpu_idle() vs tracing

2020-11-24T15:47:35+00:00

We call arch_cpu_idle() with RCU disabled, but then use
local_irq_{en,dis}able(), which invokes tracing, which relies on RCU.

Switch all arch_cpu_idle() implementations to use
raw_local_irq_{en,dis}able() and carefully manage the
lockdep,rcu,tracing state like we do in entry.

(XXX: we really should change arch_cpu_idle() to not return with
interrupts enabled)

arch: rename copy_thread_tls() back to copy_thread()

2020-07-04T21:41:37+00:00

Now that HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS has been removed, rename copy_thread_tls()
back simply copy_thread(). It's a simpler name, and doesn't imply that only
tls is copied here. This finishes an outstanding chunk of internal process
creation work since we've added clone3().

alpha: switch to copy_thread_tls()

2020-07-04T21:41:36+00:00

Use the copy_thread_tls() calling convention which passes tls through a
register. This is required so we can remove the copy_thread{_tls}() split
and remove the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS macro.

mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes  to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include 
in the files that include .

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include ") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include / d' $f
	done
