sparc, sparc64: use arch/sparc/include

2008-07-27T21:00:59+00:00

The majority of this patch was created by the following script: *** ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm mkdir -p $ASM git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM git rm include/asm-sparc64/* git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/* sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/* *** The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc for header files when sparc64 is being build. And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from sparc64 code. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

sparc: copy sparc64 specific files to asm-sparc

2008-07-18T04:44:53+00:00

Used the following script to copy the files: cd include set -e SPARC64=`ls asm-sparc64` for FILE in ${SPARC64}; do if [ -f asm-sparc/$FILE ]; then echo $FILE exist in asm-sparc else git mv asm-sparc64/$FILE asm-sparc/$FILE printf "#include \n" > asm-sparc64/$FILE git add asm-sparc64/$FILE fi done Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

[SPARC64]: Fix atomic backoff limit.

2008-03-19T08:04:48+00:00

4096 will not fit into the immediate field of a compare instruction, in fact it will end up being -4096 causing the check to fail every time and thus disabling backoff. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SPARC64]: Fix BACKOFF_SPIN on non-SMP.

2007-10-27T07:23:22+00:00

It can't be just empty, it has to at least branch back to 'label'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SPARC64]: Implement atomic backoff.

2007-10-17T23:24:55+00:00

When the cpu count is high and contention hits an atomic object, the processors can synchronize such that some cpus continually get knocked out and cannot complete the atomic update. So implement an exponential backoff when SMP. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
