This lifts the code diddling the TF and DF bits for signal handler setup out of the several places copying the same code into the one place that calls them all. There is no change in what it does. I also separated the recently-added DF bit clearing from the TF diddling. The compiler turns them back into one instruction anyway. The tossing in of DF to the same line of code with no new comments was a bit more arcane than seems wise. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

It is claimed that NexGen CPUs were never shipped: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/20/179 Also, the kernel support for these chips has been broken for a long time, the code intended to support NexGen thereby being essentially dead. As an outcome of the discussion that can be found using the URL above, this patch removes the NexGen support altogether. The changes in this patch survived a defconfig build for i386, a couple of successful randconfig builds, as well as a runtime test, which consisted in booting a 32-bit x86 box up to the shell prompt.

In arch/x86/kernel/setup_64.c, the standard_io_resources array is needlessly defined as global. This patch makes this variable static. This patch was successfully build-tested using the defconfig for x86_64. Runtime test was performed by booting a 64-bit x86 box up to the shell prompt.

There are no users for the function amd_init_cpu() defined in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c. This patch removes this routine. This patch was build-tested using defconfigs for i386 and x86_64, and a few randconfig instances. Runtime tests were performed by booting 32- and 64-bit x86 boxen up to the shell prompt.

At least on my Barcelona, I see MCE log entries after cold boot caused by BIOS not properly clearing the respective registers. Therefore, this patch extends the workaround to families 0x10 and 0x11 (the latter just for completeness, I have nothing to verify this against). At the same time, provide a way to make these entries visible via the 'mce=bootlog' command line option even on these machines.

There apparently was an unnoticed conflict between an earlier patch to this file and mine (d1e08474), which I noticed only now. I suppose a change like the one below (untested) is needed; I didn't get any response on a confirmation request for this from the submitter of the first patch. The issue is the writing of the 'checkbit' member at the end of setup_intel_arch_watchdog(), which my patch made go to intel_arch_wd_ops rather than wd_ops.

Commit 1a747ee0 ("locks: don't call ->copy_lock methods on return of conflicting locks") changed fs/lockd/svclock.c to call __locks_copy_lock() instead of locks_copy_lock(), but lockd can be built as a module and __locks_copy_lock() is not exported, which causes a build error ERROR: "__locks_copy_lock" [fs/lockd/lockd.ko] undefined! with CONFIG_LOCKD=m.

This patch adds a new command line option -E to modpost, expecting a symbol file as an argument which is read prior to symbol processing. -E can be supplied multiple times for as many files as is needed. When building kernel modules that depend on other modules not in the main kernel tree, modpost complains about undefined symbols: # make -C /path/to/linux/kernel M=/path/to/my/module ... Building modules, stage 2. .... WARNING: "rt_copy_buf" [/home/rich/osc_etl_rtw/osc_kmod.ko] undefined! ...etc This situation occurs when modpost processes the new module's symbols. When it finds symbols not exported by the mainline kernel, it issues this warning. The patch adds a new command line option -e to modpost which expects a symbol file as an argument. The symbols listed in this file are added to modpost's symbol tables during startup. -e can be supplied as often as required. This patch works together with the second patch. It introduces a new make variable, KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS, which is used when calling modpost. Signed-off-by: Richard Hacker <lerichi@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Add option to enable -Wframe-larger-than= on gcc 4.4 gcc mainline (upcoming 4.4) added a new -Wframe-larger-than=... option to warn at build time about too large stack frames. Add a config option to enable this warning, since this very useful for the kernel. I choose (somewhat arbitarily) 2048 as default warning threshold for 64bit and 1024 as default for 32bit architectures. With some research and fixing all the code for smaller values these defaults should be probably lowered. With the default allyesconfigs have some new warnings, but I think that is all code that should be just fixed. At some point (when gcc 4.4 is released and widely used) this should obsolete make checkstack Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
