Merge branch 'signal-cleanup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/misc

2014-08-09T16:58:12+00:00

Pull arch signal handling cleanup from Richard Weinberger:
 "This patch series moves all remaining archs to the get_signal(),
  signal_setup_done() and sigsp() functions.

  Currently these archs use open coded variants of the said functions.
  Further, unused parameters get removed from get_signal_to_deliver(),
  tracehook_signal_handler() and signal_delivered().

  At the end of the day we save around 500 lines of code."

Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

2014-08-06T00:46:42+00:00

Pull timer and time updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update of timers, timekeeping & co

- Core timekeeping code is year-2038 safe now for 32bit machines.
Now we just need to fix all in kernel users and the gazillion of
user space interfaces which rely on timespec/timeval :)

- Better cache layout for the timekeeping internal data structures.

- Proper nanosecond based interfaces for in kernel users.

- Tree wide cleanup of code which wants nanoseconds but does hoops
and loops to convert back and forth from timespecs. Some of it
definitely belongs into the ugly code museum.

- Consolidation of the timekeeping interface zoo.

- A fast NMI safe accessor to clock monotonic for tracing. This is a
long standing request to support correlated user/kernel space
traces. With proper NTP frequency correction it's also suitable
for correlation of traces accross separate machines.

- Checkpoint/restart support for timerfd.

- A few NOHZ[_FULL] improvements in the [hr]timer code.

- Code move from kernel to kernel/time of all time* related code.

- New clocksource/event drivers from the ARM universe. I'm really
impressed that despite an architected timer in the newer chips SoC
manufacturers insist on inventing new and differently broken SoC
specific timers.

[ Ed. "Impressed"? I don't think that word means what you think it means ]

- Another round of code move from arch to drivers. Looks like most
of the legacy mess in ARM regarding timers is sorted out except for
a few obnoxious strongholds.

- The usual updates and fixlets all over the place"

ktime: Kill non-scalar ktime_t implementation for 2038

2014-07-23T17:16:50+00:00

The non-scalar ktime_t implementation is basically a timespec
which has to be changed to support dates past 2038 on 32bit
systems.

This patch removes the non-scalar ktime_t implementation, forcing
the scalar s64 nanosecond version on all architectures.

This may have additional performance overhead on some 32bit
systems when converting between ktime_t and timespec structures,
however the majority of 32bit systems (arm and i386) were already
using scalar ktime_t, so no performance regressions will be seen
on those platforms.

On affected platforms, I'm open to finding optimizations, including
avoiding converting to timespecs where possible.

[ tglx: We can now cleanup the ktime_t.tv64 mess, but thats a
  different issue and we can throw a coccinelle script at it ]

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.

arch,hexagon: Convert smp_mb__*()

2014-04-18T12:20:35+00:00

Hexagon uses asm-gemeric/barrier.h and its smp_mb() is barrier().
Therefore we can use the default implementation that uses smp_mb().
