2016-09-06s390: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueueBhaktipriya Shridhar
The workqueue "appldata_wq" has been replaced with an ordered dedicated workqueue. WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has not been set since the workqueue is not being used on a memory reclaim path. The adapter->work_queue queues multiple work items viz &adapter->scan_work, &port->rport_work, &adapter->ns_up_work, &adapter->stat_work, adapter->work_queue, &adapter->events.work, &port->gid_pn_work, &port->test_link_work. Hence, an ordered dedicated workqueue has been used. WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set to ensure forward progress under memory pressure.

2012-07-20s390/vtimer: rework virtual timer interfaceMartin Schwidefsky
The current virtual timer interface is inherently per-cpu and hard to use. The sole user of the interface is appldata which uses it to execute a function after a specific amount of cputime has been used over all cpus. Rework the virtual timer interface to hook into the cputime accounting. This makes the interface independent from the CPU timer interrupts, and makes the virtual timers global as opposed to per-cpu. Overall the code is greatly simplified. The downside is that the accuracy is not as good as the original implementation, but it is still good enough for appldata.

Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless. Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly different statements and wanted to change them one after another whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened.

2009-04-14[S390] appldata: Use new mod_virt_timer_periodic() function.Gerald Schaefer
mod_virt_timer() was used to modify/add cpu timers for cpus that were set online. This resulted in a one-shot timer for every cpu that was newly added or previously set offline, instead of an interval timer, which broke the appldata vtime interval setup. To fix this, the new mod_virt_timer_periodic() function is used, which adds interval timers instead of one-shot timers.

2007-10-12[S390] appldata_base: Remove module_exit function and modular stuffSatyam Sharma
arch/s390/Kconfig tells us that CONFIG_APPLDATA_BASE is bool and hence can never be built modular. Given this, defining appldata_exit() function is pointless (and wasteful, actually). Remove all that. Previous patch annotated appldata_offline_cpu() as __cpuexit, but now with the __exit function appldata_exit() gone, the only callsite that references it is __cpuinit, so this function can also be __cpuinit, thereby saving space when HOTPLUG_CPU=n.

2007-10-12[S390] appldata_base: Misc cpuinit annotations and bugfixSatyam Sharma
appldata_offline_cpu() is only called from __cpuinit-marked hotplug notifier callback and from the __exit-marked module_exit function, therefore candidate for __cpuexit. BTW the __exit module_exit function appldata_exit() of this driver fails to unregister_hotcpu_notifier() the notifier_block that was registered by appldata_init() during module startup. This will lead to oops if hotplug notification comes after module has been unloaded. Let's fix this by unregistering the notifier appropriately (before appldata_offline_cpu()'ing the CPUs).

2007-05-09Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-06-30[PATCH] Light weight event countersChristoph Lameter
The remaining counters in page_state after the zoned VM counter patches have been applied are all just for show in /proc/vmstat. They have no essential function for the VM. We use a simple increment of per cpu variables. In order to avoid the most severe races we disable preempt. Preempt does not prevent the race between an increment and an interrupt handler incrementing the same statistics counter. However, that race is exceedingly rare, we may only loose one increment or so and there is no requirement (at least not in kernel) that the vm event counters have to be accurate. In the non preempt case this results in a simple increment for each counter. For many architectures this will be reduced by the compiler to a single instruction. This single instruction is atomic for i386 and x86_64. And therefore even the rare race condition in an interrupt is avoided for both architectures in most cases. The patchset also adds an off switch for embedded systems that allows a building of linux kernels without these counters. The implementation of these counters is through inline code that hopefully results in only a single instruction increment instruction being emitted (i386, x86_64) or in the increment being hidden though instruction concurrency (EPIC architectures such as ia64 can get that done). Benefits: - VM event counter operations usually reduce to a single inline instruction on i386 and x86_64. - No interrupt disable, only preempt disable for the preempt case. Preempt disable can also be avoided by moving the counter into a spinlock. - Handling is similar to zoned VM counters. - Simple and easily extendable. - Can be omitted to reduce memory use for embedded use.
