lib/scatterlist: clean up useless architecture versions of scatterlist.h

2014-08-08T22:57:26+00:00

There's no need to have an architecture version of scatterlist.h if the
only thing the file does is include asm-generic/scatterlist.h.  Switch to
the asm-generic versions directly.

arch, locking: Ciao arch_mutex_cpu_relax()

2014-07-17T10:32:47+00:00

The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.

This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency  ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

sys_sgetmask/sys_ssetmask: add CONFIG_SGETMASK_SYSCALL

2014-06-04T23:54:14+00:00

sys_sgetmask and sys_ssetmask are obsolete system calls no longer
supported in libc.

This patch replaces architecture related __ARCH_WANT_SYS_SGETMAX by expert
mode configuration.That option is enabled by default for those
architectures.

PCI: Turn pcibios_penalize_isa_irq() into a weak function

2014-05-27T22:23:58+00:00

pcibios_penalize_isa_irq() is only implemented by x86 now, and legacy ISA
is not used by some architectures.  Make pcibios_penalize_isa_irq() a
__weak function to simplify the code.  This removes the need for new
platforms to add stub implementations of pcibios_penalize_isa_irq().

arch,cris: Convert smp_mb__*()

2014-04-18T12:20:00+00:00

Cris fully relies on asm-generic/barrier.h, therefore its smp_mb() is
barrier(), thus we can use the default implementation that uses
smp_mb().

(Include asm/system.h and asm/barrier.h to avoid header dependency hell.)

arch: Remove stub cputime.h headers

2014-03-13T15:09:30+00:00

Many architectures have a stub cputime.h that only include the default
cputime.h

Lets remove the useless headers, we only need to mention that we want
the default headers on the Kbuild files.
