arch, locking: Ciao arch_mutex_cpu_relax()

2014-07-17T10:32:47+00:00

The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.

This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency  ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

fork: move the real prepare_to_copy() users to arch_dup_task_struct()

2012-05-16T22:16:26+00:00

Historical prepare_to_copy() is mostly a no-op, duplicated for majority of
the architectures and the rest following the x86 model of flushing the extended
register state like fpu there.

Remove it and use the arch_dup_task_struct() instead.

Blackfin: SMP: relocate blackfin_core_id() definition

2011-01-10T12:18:15+00:00

Since we're breaking apart some inter-header dependencies to avoid more
circular loops, move the blackfin_core_id() definition to the func that
it is based upon.

Blackfin: mass clean up of copyright/licensing info

2009-10-07T08:36:26+00:00

Bill Gatliff & David Brownell pointed out we were missing some
copyrights, and licensing terms in some of the files in
./arch/blackfin, so this fixes things, and cleans them up.

It also removes:
 - verbose GPL text(refer to the top level ./COPYING file)
 - file names (you are looking at the file)
 - bug url (it's in the ./MAINTAINERS file)
 - "or later" on GPL-2, when we did not have that right

It also allows some Blackfin-specific assembly files to be under a BSD
like license (for people to use them outside of Linux).

Blackfin: update handling of anomaly 364 (wrong rev id in BF527-0.1)

2009-07-16T05:52:28+00:00

This anomaly only applies to the BF527-0.1, not the BF526-0.1, and not any
other revision of the BF527.  So make sure we don't go returning 0xffff
for other cases.
