arch/hotplug: Call into idle with a proper state

2016-03-01T19:36:57Z

Let the non boot cpus call into idle with the corresponding hotplug state, so the hotplug core can handle the further bringup. That's a first step to convert the boot side of the hotplugged cpus to do all the synchronization with the other side through the state machine. For now it'll only start the hotplug thread and kick the full bringup of the cpu. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: linux-arch@vger.kernel.org Cc: Rik van Riel Cc: Rafael Wysocki Cc: "Srivatsa S.

smp, alpha: kill SMP single function call interrupt

2015-05-26T17:01:46Z

Commit 9a46ad6d6df3b54 "smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic similar to smp_call_function_single()" has unified the way to handle single and multiple cross-CPU function calls. Now only one interrupt is needed for architecture specific code to support generic SMP function call interfaces, so kill the redundant single function call interrupt.

alpha: Switch to GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS

2013-11-17T00:33:19Z

This allows us to get rid of some hacky code for SMP. Get rid of some cycle counter hackery that's now handled by generic code via clocksource + clock_event_device objects. Signed-off-by: Richard Henderson

alpha: kernel: typo issue, using '1' instead of '11'

2013-07-19T20:54:19Z

For sending message: *(unsigned int *)&cpu->ipc_buffer[0] = len; cp1 = (char *) &cpu->ipc_buffer[1]; But for receive message: cnt = cpu->ipc_buffer[0] >> 32; ... cp1 = (char *) &cpu->ipc_buffer[11]; They are not pairs, it is typo issue of the redundency '1'. So need use '1' instead of '11'. Reviewed-by: Matt Turner Signed-off-by: Matt Turner Signed-off-by: Chen Gang

alpha: kernel: using memcpy() instead of strcpy()

2013-07-19T20:54:14Z

When sending message in send_secondary_console_msg(), the length is not include the NUL byte, and also not copy NUL to 'ipc_buffer'. When receive message in recv_secondary_console_msg(), the 'cnt' also excludes NUL. So when get string from ipc_buffer, it may not be NUL terminated. Then use memcpy() instead of strcpy(), and set last byte NUL. Reviewed-by: Matt Turner Signed-off-by: Matt Turner Signed-off-by: Chen Gang

alpha: delete __cpuinit usage from all users

2013-07-14T23:36:51Z

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the alpha uses of the __cpuinit macros.

ALPHA: drivers: remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:13Z

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

alpha: Fix preemption handling in idle loop

2012-09-23T14:44:42Z

cpu_idle() is called on the boot CPU by the init code with preemption disabled. But the cpu_idle() function in alpha doesn't handle this when it calls schedule() directly. Fix it by converting it into schedule_preempt_disabled(). Also disable preemption before calling cpu_idle() from secondary CPU entry code to stay consistent with this state.
