Architectures that handle DMA-non-coherent memory need to set ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to make sure that kmalloc'ed buffer is DMA-safe: the buffer doesn't share a cache with the others. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit b3b77c8c, which was also totally broken (see commit 0d2daf5c that reverted the crc32 version of it). As reported by Stephen Rothwell, it causes problems on big-endian machines: > In file included from fs/jfs/jfs_types.h:33, > from fs/jfs/jfs_incore.h:26, > from fs/jfs/file.c:22: > fs/jfs/endian24.h:36:101: warning: "__LITTLE_ENDIAN" is not defined The kernel has never had that crazy "__BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN" model. It's not how we do things, and it isn't how we _should_ do things. So don't go there. Requested-by:

This reverts commit 480b02df, since Rafael reports that it causes occasional kernel paging request faults in load_module(). Dropping the module lock and re-taking it deep in the call-chain is definitely not the right thing to do. That just turns the mutex from a lock into a "random non-locking data structure" that doesn't actually protect what it's supposed to protect. Requested-and-tested-by:

Certain firmware commands/operations to upgrade firmware could take several seconds to complete. The code presently disables bottom half during these operations which could lead to unpredictable behaviour in certain cases. This patch now does all firmware upgrade operations asynchronously using a completion variable. Signed-off-by:

The commit 00b7c339 "sysctl: refactor integer handling proc code" modified the behaviour of writing to /proc. Before the commit, write("1\n") to /proc/sys/kernel/printk succeeded. But now it returns EINVAL. This commit supports writing a single value to a multi-valued entry. Signed-off-by:

Search only the first 100 bits instead of 140, saving a couple instructions. The resulting code is about 1/3 faster (40K ticks/1000 iterations down to 30K ticks/1000 iterations).

Alpha has a tsc like rpcc counter that it uses to manage time. This can be converted to an actual clocksource instead of utilizing the arch_gettimeoffset method that is really only there for legacy systems with no continuous counter. Further cleanups could be made if alpha converted to the clockevent model. CC: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> CC: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Acked-by:

This adds: alias: devname:<name> to some common kernel modules, which will allow the on-demand loading of the kernel module when the device node is accessed. Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts. The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory: $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d1-dirty/modules.devname # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading. microcode cpu/microcode c10:184 fuse fuse c10:229 ppp_generic ppp c108:0 tun net/tun c10:200 dm_mod mapper/control c10:235 Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed: $ /sbin/udevd --debug ... static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666 A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor numbers. Note: The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance* device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used. This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to paper-over broken concepts.
