[PATCH] Numerous fixes to kernel-doc info in source files.

2007-02-11T18:51:32+00:00

A variety of (mostly) innocuous fixes to the embedded kernel-doc content in source files, including: * make multi-line initial descriptions single line * denote some function names, constants and structs as such * change erroneous opening '/*' to '/**' in a few places * reword some text for clarity Signed-off-by: Robert P.

[PATCH] x86: SMP alternatives

2006-03-23T15:38:04+00:00

Implement SMP alternatives, i.e. switching at runtime between different code versions for UP and SMP. The code can patch both SMP->UP and UP->SMP. The UP->SMP case is useful for CPU hotplug. With CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enabled the code switches to UP at boot time and when the number of CPUs goes down to 1, and switches to SMP when the number of CPUs goes up to 2. Without CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG or on non-SMP-capable systems the code is patched once at boot time (if needed) and the tables are released afterwards. The changes in detail: * The current alternatives bits are moved to a separate file, the SMP alternatives code is added there. * The patch adds some new elf sections to the kernel: .smp_altinstructions like .altinstructions, also contains a list of alt_instr structs. .smp_altinstr_replacement like .altinstr_replacement, but also has some space to save original instruction before replaving it. .smp_locks list of pointers to lock prefixes which can be nop'ed out on UP. The first two are used to replace more complex instruction sequences such as spinlocks and semaphores. It would be possible to deal with the lock prefixes with that as well, but by handling them as special case the table sizes become much smaller. * The sections are page-aligned and padded up to page size, so they can be free if they are not needed. * Splitted the code to release init pages to a separate function and use it to release the elf sections if they are unused.

[PATCH] mark several functions __always_inline

2006-01-15T02:27:15+00:00

Arjan van de Ven Mark a number of functions as 'must inline'. The functions affected by this patch need to be inlined because they use knowledge that their arguments are constant so that most of the function optimizes away. At this point this patch does not change behavior, it's for documentation only (and for future patches in the inline series) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] x86: fls() in asm

2006-01-06T16:33:38+00:00

There is a single instruction on i386 to find largest set bit; so it makes sense to use it (like we use bfs for ffs()). Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] x86: handle -Wsign-compare in bitops

2006-01-06T16:33:36+00:00

Make i386's find_first_bit() use an unsigned integer as a counter to avoid getting warnings when -Wsign-compare is given. Signed-Off-By: David Howells Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
