2005-06-25[PATCH] ARM: Generic Dynamic Tick Timer support for ARM, take 4Russell King
This patch adds support for Dynamic Tick Timer for ARM. Dynamic Tick is also known as VST (Variable Scheduling Timeouts). Dynamic Tick has been in use in the OMAP tree since last October. The patch is not intrusive, and does not do anything unless CONFIG_NO_IDLE_HZ is defined. This patch has the following fixed based on comments from RMK: - Time is updated before calling interrupt handlers. - Added new interrupt flag SA_TIMER to avoid duplicate timer interrupts - Moved struct dyn_tick_timer to time.h until we at some point probably have an arch independent dyn-tick.h - Cleaned up testing for DYN_TICK_ENABLED in irq.c I've cleaned up this patch to fix some remaining issues: - Call the timer tick handler with irqs disabled, as it would be from a normal interrupt - if we have a dyn_tick, we better implement all methods. - generic timer_dyn_reprogram() call, to be called before sleeping - added command line option - "dyntick=" to allow boot-time control of this feature -- rmk Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-06-22[PATCH] ARM: Move signal return code into vector pageRussell King
Move the signal return code into the vector page instead of placing it on the user mode stack, which will allow us to avoid flushing the instruction cache on signals, as well as eventually allowing non-exec stack. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-06-18[PATCH] ARM SMP: Add support for startup of secondary processorsRussell King

2005-05-31[PATCH] ARM SMP: Fix vector entryRussell King
The current vector entry system does not allow for SMP. In order to work around this, we need to eliminate our reliance on the fixed save areas, which breaks the way we enable alignment traps. This patch changes the way we handle the save areas such that we can have one per CPU. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk>

The current vector entry system does not allow for SMP. In order to work around this, we need to eliminate our reliance on the fixed save areas, which breaks the way we enable alignment traps.

2005-05-05[PATCH] ARM: Fix kernel stack offset calculationsRussell King
Various places in the ARM kernel implicitly assumed that kernel stacks are always 8K due to hard coded constants. Replace these constants with definitions. Correct the allowable range of kernel stack pointer values within the allocation. Arrange for the entire kernel stack to be zeroed, not just the upper 4K if CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE is set.

2005-04-29[PATCH] ARM: 2651/3: kernel helpers for NPTL supportNicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre This patch entirely reworks the kernel assistance for NPTL on ARM. In particular this provides an efficient way to retrieve the TLS value and perform atomic operations without any instruction emulation nor special system call. This even allows for pre ARMv6 binaries to be forward compatible with SMP systems without any penalty. The problematic and performance critical operations are performed through segment of kernel provided user code reachable from user space at a fixed address in kernel memory. Those fixed entry points are within the vector page so we basically get it for free as no extra memory page is required and nothing else may be mapped at that location anyway. This is different from (but doesn't preclude) a full blown VDSO implementation, however a VDSO would prevent some assembly tricks with constants that allows for efficient branching to those code segments. And since those code segments only use a few cycles before returning to user code, the overhead of a VDSO far call would add a significant overhead to such minimalistic operations. The ARM_NR_set_tls syscall also changed number. This is done for two reasons: 1) this patch changes the way the TLS value was previously meant to be retrieved, therefore we ensure whatever library using the old way gets fixed (they only exist in private tree at the moment since the NPTL work is still progressing). 2) the previous number was allocated in a range causing an undefined instruction trap on kernels not supporting that syscall and it was determined that allocating it in a range returning -ENOSYS would be much nicer for libraries trying to determine if the feature is present or not.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
