sh: always link in helper functions extracted from libgcc

2014-02-15T19:20:12+00:00

commit 84ed8a99058e61567f495cc43118344261641c5f upstream.

E.g. landisk_defconfig, which has CONFIG_NTFS_FS=m:

  ERROR: "__ashrdi3" [fs/ntfs/ntfs.ko] undefined!

For "lib-y", if no symbols in a compilation unit are referenced by other
units, the compilation unit will not be included in vmlinux.  This
breaks modules that do reference those symbols.

Use "obj-y" instead to fix this.

http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/8838077/

This doesn't fix all cases. There are others, e.g. udivsi3.
This is also not limited to sh, many architectures handle this in the
same way.

A simple solution is to unconditionally include all helper functions.
A more complex solution is to make the choice of "lib-y" or "obj-y" depend
on CONFIG_MODULES:

  obj-$(CONFIG_MODULES) += ...
  lib-y($CONFIG_MODULES) += ...

sh: Fix FDPIC binary loader

2013-02-06T04:33:29+00:00

commit 4a71997a3279a339e7336ea5d0cd27282e2dea44 upstream.

Ensure that the aux table is properly initialized, even when optional features
are missing.  Without this, the FDPIC loader did not work.  This was meant to
be included in commit d5ab780305bb6d60a7b5a74f18cf84eb6ad153b1.

oprofile, arm/sh: Fix oprofile_arch_exit() linkage issue

2011-12-23T10:58:34+00:00

This change fixes a linking problem, which happens if oprofile
is selected to be compiled as built-in:

  `oprofile_arch_exit' referenced in section `.init.text' of
  arch/arm/oprofile/built-in.o: defined in discarded section
  `.exit.text' of arch/arm/oprofile/built-in.o

The problem is appeared after commit 87121ca504, which
introduced oprofile_arch_exit() calls from __init function. Note
that the aforementioned commit has been backported to stable
branches, and the problem is known to be reproduced at least
with 3.0.13 and 3.1.5 kernels.

cpuidle: Single/Global registration of idle states

2011-11-07T02:13:58+00:00

This patch makes the cpuidle_states structure global (single copy)
instead of per-cpu. The statistics needed on per-cpu basis
by the governor are kept per-cpu. This simplifies the cpuidle
subsystem as state registration is done by single cpu only.
Having single copy of cpuidle_states saves memory. Rare case
of asymmetric C-states can be handled within the cpuidle driver
and architectures such as POWER do not have asymmetric C-states.

Having single/global registration of all the idle states,
dynamic C-state transitions on x86 are handled by
the boot cpu. Here, the boot cpu  would disable all the devices,
re-populate the states and later enable all the devices,
irrespective of the cpu that would receive the notification first.

cpuidle: Move dev->last_residency update to driver enter routine; remove dev->last_state

2011-11-07T02:13:30+00:00

Cpuidle governor only suggests the state to enter using the
governor->select() interface, but allows the low level driver to
override the recommended state. The actual entered state
may be different because of software or hardware demotion. Software
demotion is done by the back-end cpuidle driver and can be accounted
correctly. Current cpuidle code uses last_state field to capture the
actual state entered and based on that updates the statistics for the
state entered.

Ideally the driver enter routine should update the counters,
and it should return the state actually entered rather than the time
spent there. The generic cpuidle code should simply handle where
the counters live in the sysfs namespace, not updating the counters.
