sched/preempt, locking: Rework local_bh_{dis,en}able()

2014-01-13T16:32:27Z

Currently local_bh_disable() is out-of-line for no apparent reason. So inline it to save a few cycles on call/return nonsense, the function body is a single add on x86 (a few loads and store extra on load/store archs). Also expose two new local_bh functions: __local_bh_{dis,en}able_ip(unsigned long ip, unsigned int cnt); Which implement the actual local_bh_{dis,en}able() behaviour. The next patch uses the exposed @cnt argument to optimize bh lock functions. With build fixes from Jacob Pan.

softirq: remove useless function __local_bh_enable

2008-11-28T11:38:38Z

Impact: remove unused code __local_bh_enable has been replaced with _local_bh_enable. As comments says "it always nests inside local_bh_enable() sections" has not been valid now. Also there is no reason to use __local_bh_enable anywhere, so we can remove this useless function. Signed-off-by: Liming Wang Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

[PATCH] add bottom_half.h

2006-12-07T16:39:20Z

With CONFIG_SMP=n: drivers/input/ff-memless.c:384: warning: implicit declaration of function 'local_bh_disable' drivers/input/ff-memless.c:393: warning: implicit declaration of function 'local_bh_enable' Really linux/spinlock.h should include linux/interrupt.h. But interrupt.h includes sched.h which will need spinlock.h. So the patch breaks the _bh declarations out into a separate header and includes it in both interrupt.h and spinlock.h.
