      [PATCH] memory_sysdev_class is static · ff88a3b2
      Andrew Morton authored 
      So don't define it as extern in the header file.

drivers/base/memory.c:28: error: static declaration of 'memory_sysdev_class' follows non-static declaration
include/linux/memory.h:88: error: previous declaration of 'memory_sysdev_class' was here

      [PATCH] clean up lock_cpu_hotplug() in cpufreq · a9d9baa1
      Ashok Raj authored 
      There are some callers in cpufreq hotplug notify path that the lowest
function calls lock_cpu_hotplug().  The lock is already held during
cpu_up() and cpu_down() calls when the notify calls are broadcast to
registered clients.

Ideally if possible, we could disable_preempt() at the highest caller and
make sure we dont sleep in the path down in cpufreq->driver_target() calls
but the calls are so intertwined and cumbersome to cleanup.

Hence we consistently use lock_cpu_hotplug() and unlock_cpu_hotplug() in
all places.

 - Removed export of cpucontrol semaphore and made it static.
 - removed explicit uses of up/down with lock_cpu_hotplug()
   so we can keep track of the the callers in same thread context and
   just keep refcounts without calling a down() that causes a deadlock.
 - Removed current_in_hotplug() uses
 - Removed PF_HOTPLUG_CPU in sched.h introduced for the current_in_hotplug()
   temporary workaround.

Tested with insmod of cpufreq_stat.ko, and logical online/offline
to make sure we dont have any hang situations.

      [PATCH] Workaround for gcc 2.96 (undefined references) · e0f39591
      Alan Stern authored 
        LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
mm/built-in.o(.text+0x100d6): In function `copy_page_range':
: undefined reference to `__pud_alloc'
mm/built-in.o(.text+0x1010b): In function `copy_page_range':
: undefined reference to `__pmd_alloc'
mm/built-in.o(.text+0x11ef4): In function `__handle_mm_fault':

fs/built-in.o(.text+0xc930): In function `install_arg_page':
: undefined reference to `__pud_alloc'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

Those missing references in mm/memory.c arise from this code in
include/linux/mm.h, combined with the fact that __PGTABLE_PMD_FOLDED and
__PGTABLE_PUD_FOLDED are both set and __ARCH_HAS_4LEVEL_HACK is not:

/*
 * The following ifdef needed to get the 4level-fixup.h header to work.
 * Remove it when 4level-fixup.h has been removed.
 */
#if defined(CONFIG_MMU) && !defined(__ARCH_HAS_4LEVEL_HACK)
static inline pud_t *pud_alloc(struct mm_struct *mm, pgd_t *pgd, unsigned long address)
{
        return (unlikely(pgd_none(*pgd)) && __pud_alloc(mm, pgd, address))?
                NULL: pud_offset(pgd, address);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_alloc(struct mm_struct *mm, pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (unlikely(pud_none(*pud)) && __pmd_alloc(mm, pud, address))?
                NULL: pmd_offset(pud, address);
}
#endif /* CONFIG_MMU && !__ARCH_HAS_4LEVEL_HACK */

With my configuration the pgd_none and pud_none routines are inlines
returning a constant 0.  Apparently the old compiler avoids generating
calls to __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc but still lists them as undefined
references in the module's symbol table.

I don't know which change caused this problem.  I think it was added
somewhere between 2.6.14 and 2.6.15-rc1, because I remember building
several 2.6.14-rc kernels without difficulty.  However I can't point to an
individual culprit.

      mm: re-architect the VM_UNPAGED logic · 6aab341e
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very
explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP.  It allows a
VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM
never touches, and never considers to be normal pages.

Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new
functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or
indeed mark them any other way.  It just works.  As a side effect, doing
mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges.

Sparc update from David in the next commit.
