2009-06-17x86-64: move clts into batch cpu state updates when preloading fpuJeremy Fitzhardinge1-9/+18
When a task is likely to be using the fpu, we preload its state during the context switch, rather than waiting for it to run an fpu instruction. Make sure the clts() happens while we're doing batched fpu state updates to optimise paravirtualized context switches.

2009-06-17x86-64: move unlazy_fpu() into lazy cpu state part of context switchJeremy Fitzhardinge1-3/+3
Make sure that unlazy_fpu()'s stts gets batched along with the other cpu state changes during context switch. (32-bit already does this.) This makes sure it gets batched when running paravirtualized.

2009-06-17x86-32: make sure clts is batched during context switchJeremy Fitzhardinge1-11/+16
If we're preloading the fpu state during context switch, make sure the clts happens while we're batching the cpu context update, then do the actual __math_state_restore once the updates are flushed. This allows more efficient context switches when running paravirtualized, as all the hypercalls can be folded together into one.

2009-06-17x86: split out core __math_state_restoreJeremy Fitzhardinge2-10/+24
Split the core fpu state restoration out into __math_state_restore, which assumes that cr0.TS is clear and that the fpu context has been initialized. This will be used during context switch. There are two reasons this is desireable: - There's a small clarification. When __switch_to() calls math_state_restore, it relies on the fact that tsk_used_math() returns true, and so will never do a blocking init_fpu(). __math_state_restore() does not have (or need) that logic, so the question never arises. - It allows the clts() to be moved earler in __switch_to() so it can be performed while cpu context updates are batched (will be done in a later patch).

Kmemleak allocates memory for pointer tracking and it tries to avoid using GFP_ATOMIC if the caller doesn't require it. However other gfp flags may be passed by the caller which aren't required by kmemleak. This patch filters the gfp flags so that only GFP_KERNEL | GFP_ATOMIC are used.

2009-06-17MIPS: Alchemy: Rewrite GPIO support.Manuel Lauss7-233/+770
The current in-kernel Alchemy GPIO support is far too inflexible for all my use cases. To address this, the following changes are made: * create generic functions which deal with manipulating the on-chip GPIO1/2 blocks. Such functions are universally useful. * Macros for GPIO2 shared interrupt management and block control. * support for both built-in CONFIG_GPIOLIB and fast, inlined GPIO macros. If CONFIG_GPIOLIB is not enabled, provide linux gpio framework compatibility by directly inlining the GPIO1/2 functions. GPIO access is limited to on-chip ones and they can be accessed as documented in the datasheets (GPIO0-31 and 200-215). If CONFIG_GPIOLIB is selected, two (2) gpio_chip-s, one for GPIO1 and one for GPIO2, are registered. GPIOs can still be accessed by using the numberspace established in the databooks. However this is not yet flexible enough for my uses: My Alchemy systems have a documented "external" gpio interface (fixed, different numberspace) and can support a variety of baseboards, some of which are equipped with I2C gpio expanders. I want to be able to provide the default 16 GPIOs of the CPU board numbered as 0..15 and also support gpio expanders, if present, starting as gpio16. To achieve this, a new Kconfig symbol for Alchemy is introduced, CONFIG_ALCHEMY_GPIO_INDIRECT, which boards can enable to signal that they don't want the Alchemy numberspace exposed to the outside world, but instead want to provide their own. Boards are now respon- sible for providing the linux gpio interface glue code (either in a custom gpio.h header (in board include directory) or with gpio_chips). To make the board-specific inlined gpio functions work, the MIPS Makefile must be changed so that the mach-au1x00/gpio.h header is included _after_ the board headers, by moving the inclusion of the mach-au1x00/ to the end of the header list. See arch/mips/include/asm/mach-au1x00/gpio.h for more info.
