[PATCH] Change cpu_up and co from devinit to cpuinit

2007-01-12T02:18:20+00:00

Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n
with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b7d) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b9c) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__cpu_up
from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141bd8) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c05) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c26) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up'

This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are
defined as __devinit
AND
__cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions.

Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration,
we get a .text refering .init.data warning.

This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up
and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since
the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or
are of __init type.

Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up
in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would
land up in .init section.

Tested on a i386 SMP machine running linux-2.6.20-rc3-mm1.

[PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls

2006-12-13T17:05:58+00:00

Run this:

	#!/bin/sh
	for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
	  echo "De-casting $f..."
	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
	done

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

[PATCH] elf: Always define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.h

2006-12-07T16:39:38+00:00

Define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.h.  The size of the type is determined using
ELF_CLASS.  This allows us to remove the defines that today are spread all
over .c and .h files.

[PATCH] vmlinux.lds: consolidate initcall sections

2006-10-27T22:34:51+00:00

Add a vmlinux.lds.h helper macro for defining the eight-level initcall table,
teach all the architectures to use it.

This is a prerequisite for a patch which performs initcall synchronisation for
multithreaded-probing.

[PARISC] More pt_regs removal

2006-10-07T12:01:11+00:00

Remove pt_regs from ipi_interrupt and timer_interrupt.
Inline smp_do_timer() into its only caller, and unify the SMP and
non-SMP paths.  Fixes a profiling bug.

[PARISC] Make firmware calls irqsafe-ish...

2006-10-07T11:21:03+00:00

There's no reason why we shouldn't be using _irqsave instead of
_irq for any of these calls. fwiw, this fixes the
"start_kernel(): bug: interrupts were enabled early" message displayed
on bootup recently.

Conditionals were the wrong way around.  Turns out I was booting the
