local64.h: make mandatory

2020-12-29T23:36:49+00:00

Make  mandatory in include/asm-generic/Kbuild and
remove all arch/*/include/asm/local64.h arch-specific files since they
only #include .

This fixes build errors on arch/c6x/ and arch/nios2/ for
block/blk-iocost.c.

Build-tested on 21 of 25 arch-es.  (tools problems on the others)

Yes, we could even rename  to
 and change all #includes to use
 instead.

Merge tag 'tif-task_work.arch-2020-12-14' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2020-12-16T20:33:35+00:00

Pull TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This sits on top of of the core entry/exit and x86 entry branch from
  the tip tree, which contains the generic and x86 parts of this work.

  Here we convert the rest of the archs to support TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL.

  With that done, we can get rid of JOBCTL_TASK_WORK from task_work and
  signal.c, and also remove a deadlock work-around in io_uring around
  knowing that signal based task_work waking is invoked with the sighand
  wait queue head lock.

  The motivation for this work is to decouple signal notify based
  task_work, of which io_uring is a heavy user of, from sighand. The
  sighand lock becomes a huge contention point, particularly for
  threaded workloads where it's shared between threads. Even outside of
  threaded applications it's slower than it needs to be.

  Roman Gershman  reported that his networked
  workload dropped from 1.6M QPS at 80% CPU to 1.0M QPS at 100% CPU
  after io_uring was changed to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. The time was all
  spent hammering on the sighand lock, showing 57% of the CPU time there
  [1].

  There are further cleanups possible on top of this. One example is
  TIF_PATCH_PENDING, where a patch already exists to use
  TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL instead. Hopefully this will also lead to more
  consolidation, but the work stands on its own as well"

 "Dead code removal, mostly.

  The only exception is a bit of cleanups on itanic (getting rid of
  redundant stack unwinds - each access_uarea() call does it and we call

  ourselves in the caller; location where the user registers have been
  spilled won't change under us, and we can bloody well just call
  access_elf_reg() directly, giving it the unw_frame_info we'd
  calculated for our own purposes)"

nds32/mm/highmem: Switch to generic kmap atomic

2020-11-06T22:14:57+00:00

The mapping code is odd and looks broken. See FIXME in the comment.

Also fix the harmless off by one in the FIX_KMAP_END define.

uaccess: remove segment_eq

2020-08-12T17:57:58+00:00

segment_eq is only used to implement uaccess_kernel.  Just open code
uaccess_kernel in the arch uaccess headers and remove one layer of
indirection.
