2009-12-18hw-breakpoints: Fix hardware breakpoints -> perf events dependencyFrederic Weisbecker
The kbuild's select command doesn't propagate through the config dependencies. Hence the current rules of hardware breakpoint's config can't ensure perf can never be disabled under us. We have: config X86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS select PERF_EVENTS config PERF_EVENTS [...] x86 will select the breakpoints but that won't propagate to perf events. The user can still disable the latter, but it is necessary for the breakpoints. What we need is: - x86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS and PERF_EVENTS - HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS depends on PERF_EVENTS so that we ensure PERF_EVENTS is enabled and frozen for x86. This fixes the following kind of build errors: In file included from arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:31: include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h: In function 'hw_breakpoint_addr': include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h:39: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'attr' v2: Select also ANON_INODES from x86, required for perf Reported-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Reported-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Reported-by: Andrew Randrianasulu <randrik_a@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: K.Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> LKML-Reference: <1261010034-7786-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-12-17x86: Reenable TSC sync check at boot, even with NONSTOP_TSCPallipadi, Venkatesh
Commit 83ce4009 did the following change If the TSC is constant and non-stop, also set it reliable. But, there seems to be few systems that will end up with TSC warp across sockets, depending on how the cpus come out of reset. Skipping TSC sync test on such systems may result in time inconsistency later. So, reenable TSC sync test even on constant and non-stop TSC systems. Set, sched_clock_stable to 1 by default and reset it in mark_tsc_unstable, if TSC sync fails. This change still gives perf benefit mentioned in 83ce4009 for systems where TSC is reliable.

2009-12-17spi_s3c24xx: add FIQ pseudo-DMA supportBen Dooks
Add pseudo-DMA by FIQ to the S3C24XX SPI driver. This allows the driver to get DMA-like performance where there are either no free DMA channels or when doing transfers that required both TX and RX data paths. Since this patch requires the addition of an assembly file to hold the FIQ code, we rename the module (instead of adding a rename of the .c file to this patch). We expect most users are loading this via udev and thus there should be no change to the userland configuration.

2009-12-17perf events, x86/stacktrace: Fix performance/softlockup by providing a ↵Frederic Weisbecker
special frame pointer-only stack walker It's just wasteful for stacktrace users like perf to walk through every entries on the stack whereas these only accept reliable ones, ie: that the frame pointer validates. Since perf requires pure reliable stacktraces, it needs a stack walker based on frame pointers-only to optimize the stacktrace processing. This might solve some near-lockup scenarios that can be triggered by call-graph tracing timer events.

2009-12-17perf events, x86/stacktrace: Make stack walking optionalFrederic Weisbecker
The current print_context_stack helper that does the stack walking job is good for usual stacktraces as it walks through all the stack and reports even addresses that look unreliable, which is nice when we don't have frame pointers for example. But we have users like perf that only require reliable stacktraces, and those may want a more adapted stack walker, so lets make this function a callback in stacktrace_ops that users can tune for their needs.

2009-12-17MIPS: No longer hardwire CONFIG_EMBEDDED to yMartin Michlmayr
There's no reason for MIPS to select EMBEDDED. In fact, EMBEDDED makes MIPS more awkward to deal with because it makes it different to the majority of architectures for no good reason. [Ralf: Historically disabling EMBEDDED had hid essential options for many MIPS platforms such as serial console and forced crap like VGA support or power managment enabled for platforms where those don't make any sense. The name of the option is also _very_ missleading so many users don't select it even where is was required for a functioning kernel.] Signed-off-by: Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/663/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2009-12-17MIPS: Fix and enhance built-in kernel command lineDmitri Vorobiev
Currently, MIPS kernels silently overwrite kernel command-line parameters hardcoded in CONFIG_CMDLINE by the ones received from firmware. Therefore, using firmware remains the only reliable method to transfer the command-line parameters, which is not always desirable or convenient, and the CONFIG_CMDLINE option is thereby effectively rendered useless. This patch fixes the problem described above and introduces a more flexible scheme of handling the kernel command line, in a manner identical to what is currently used for x86. The default behavior, i.e. when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not defined, retains the existing semantics, and firmware command-line arguments override the hardcoded ones.

2009-12-17MIPS: Yeeloong 2F: Add LID open event as the wakeup eventWu Zhangjin
Yeeloong 2F netbook has an KB3310B embedded controller to manage the LID action. When the LID is closed or opened a SCI interrupt is sent out and the corresponding event is saved to an EC register for later query. Allow the LID open interrupt to wake the processor from wait mode if it is in the suspend mode.

2009-12-17MIPS: Move several variables from .bss to .init.dataDmitri Vorobiev
Several static uninitialized variables are used in the scope of __init functions but are themselves not marked as __initdata. This patch is to put those variables to where they belong and to reduce the memory footprint a little bit. Also, a couple of lines with spaces instead of tabs were fixed.
