If we use jump table in module init, there are marked as removed in __jump_table section after init is done. But we already applied ro permissions on the module, so we can't modify a read only section (crash in remove_jump_label_module_init). Make the __jump_table section rw. Signed-off-by:

ea530692 made a CPU use monitor/mwait when offline. This is not the optimal choice for AMD wrt to powersavings and we'd prefer our cores to halt (i.e. enter C1) instead. For this, the same selection whether to use monitor/mwait has to be used as when we select the idle routine for the machine. With this patch, offlining cores 1-5 on a X6 machine allows core0 to boost again. [ hpa: putting this in urgent since it is a (power) regression fix ] Reported-by:

In therm_throt.c, commit 9e76a97e patch doesn't export the symbol platform_thermal_notify. Other drivers (e.g. drivers/hwmon/coretemp.c) can not find the symbol platform_thermal_notify when defining threshould interrupt handler. Please apply this patch to allow threshold interrupt handler in coretemp. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit 86b1e8dd ("x86: Make relocatable kernel work with new binutils"). Markus Trippelsdorf reported a boot failure caused by this patch. The real solution to the original patch will likely involve an arch-generic solution to define an overlaid jiffies_64 and jiffies variables. Until that's done and tested on all architectures revert this commit to solve the regression. Reported-and-bisected-by:

If task == NULL, find_get_context() should always check that cpu is correct. Afaics, the bug was introduced by 38a81da2 "perf events: Clean up pid passing", but even before that commit "&& cpu != -1" was not exactly right, -ESRCH from find_task_by_vpid() is not accurate. Signed-off-by:

While most users of a physical Malta board are using the serial port as the console, a lot of QEMU users would prefer to interact with a graphical console. Enable the Cirrus FB support in the Malta default configuration to make that possible. Note that the default console will still be the serial port, users have to pass "console=tty0" to the kernel to use the Cirrus FB. Signed-off-by:

Just do what everyone else is doing by placing __read_mostly things in the .data.read_mostly section. mips_io_port_base can not be read-only (const) and writable (__read_mostly) at the same time. One of them has to go, so I chose to eliminate the __read_mostly. It will still get stuck in a portion of memory that is not adjacent to things that are written, and thus not be on a dirty cache line, for whatever that is worth. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds initial support for various Atheros SoCs based on the MIPS 24Kc core. The following models are supported at the moment: - AR7130 - AR7141 - AR7161 - AR9130 - AR9132 - AR7240 - AR7241 - AR7242 The current patch contains minimal support only, but the resulting kernel can boot into user-space with using of an initramfs image on various boards which are using these SoCs. Support for more built-in devices and individual boards will be implemented in further patches. Signed-off-by:

On the off chance that uasm ever warns about overflow, there is no way to know what the offending instruction is. Change the printks to WARNs, so we can get a nice stack trace. It has the added benefit of being much more noticeable than the short single line warning message, so is less likely to be ignored. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a generic solution to support multiple machines based on a given SoC within a single kernel image. It is implemented already for several other architectures but MIPS has no generic support for that yet. [Ralf: This competes with DT but DT is a much more complex solution and this code has been used by OpenWRT for a long time so for now DT is a bad reason to stop the merge but longer term this should be migrated to DT.] Signed-off-by:
