2010-11-18ftrace: Speed up recordmcountWu Zhangjin
cmd_record_mcount is used to locate the _mcount symbols in the object files, only the files compiled with -pg has the _mcount symbol, so, it is only needed for such files, but the current cmd_record_mcount is used for all of the object files, so, we need to fix it and speed it up. Since -pg may be removed by the method used in kernel/trace/Makefile: ORIG_CFLAGS := $(KBUILD_CFLAGS) KBUILD_CFLAGS = $(subst -pg,,$(ORIG_CFLAGS)) Or may be removed by the method used in arch/x86/kernel/Makefile: CFLAGS_REMOVE_file.o = -pg So, we must check the last variable stores the compiling flags, that is c_flags(Please refer to cmd_cc_o_c and rule_cc_o_c defined in scripts/Makefile.build) and since the CFLAGS_REMOVE_file.o is already filtered in _c_flags(Please refer to scripts/Makefile.lib) and _c_flags has less symbols, therefore, we only need to check _c_flags. --------------- Changes from v1: o Don't touch Makefile for CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD is enough o Use _c_flags intead of KBUILD_CFLAGS to cover CONFIG_REMOVE_file.o = -pg (feedback from Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>) Acked-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <3dc8cddf022eb7024f9f2cf857529a15bee8999a.1288196498.git.wuzhangjin@gmail.com> [ changed if [ .. == .. ] to if [ .. = .. ] to handle dash environments ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Commit 1c66b360fe262 (Change some lock status member in ocfs2_lock_res to char.) states that these fields need to be signed due to comparision to -1, but only changed the type from unsigned char to char.

2010-11-18hardirq.h: needs sched.h if using BKLLinus Torvalds
This really isn't the right thing to do, and strictly speaking we should have the BKL depth count in the thread info right next to the preempt count. The two really do go together. However, since that would involve a patch to all architectures, and the BKL is finally going away, it's simply not worth the effort to do the RightThing(tm).

2010-11-18net: zero kobject in rx_queue_releaseJohn Fastabend
netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() can decrement and increment the number of rx queues. For example ixgbe does this as features and offloads are toggled. Presumably this could also happen across down/up on most devices if the available resources changed (cpu offlined). The kobject needs to be zero'd in this case so that the state is not preserved across kobject_put()/kobject_init_and_add(). This resolves the following error report. ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: eth2: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX kobject (ffff880324b83210): tried to init an initialized object, something is seriously wrong.

2010-11-18x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack tracing routinesSoeren Sandmann Pedersen
The various stack tracing routines take a 'bp' argument in which the caller is supposed to provide the base pointer to use, or 0 if doesn't have one. Since bp is garbage whenever CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, this means all callers in principle should either always pass 0, or be conditional on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. However, there are only really three use cases for stack tracing: (a) Trace the current task, including IRQ stack if any (b) Trace the current task, but skip IRQ stack (c) Trace some other task In all cases, if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not defined, bp should just be 0. If it _is_ defined, then - in case (a) bp should be gotten directly from the CPU's register, so the caller should pass NULL for regs, - in case (b) the caller should should pass the IRQ registers to dump_trace(), - in case (c) bp should be gotten from the top of the task's stack, so the caller should pass NULL for regs. Hence, the bp argument is not necessary because the combination of task and regs is sufficient to determine an appropriate value for bp. This patch introduces a new inline function stack_frame(task, regs) that computes the desired bp. This function is then called from the two versions of dump_stack().

2010-11-18x86-64: Fix and clean up AMD Fam10 MMCONF enablingJan Beulich
Candidate memory ranges were not calculated properly (start addresses got needlessly rounded down, and end addresses didn't get rounded up at all), address comparison for secondary CPUs was done on only part of the address, and disabled status wasn't tracked properly.
