[PATCH] pidhash: don't count idle threads
fork_idle() does unhash_process() just after copy_process(). Contrary,
boot_cpu's idle thread explicitely registers itself for each pid_type with nr
= 0.
copy_process() already checks p->pid != 0 before process_counts++, I think we
can just skip attach_pid() calls and job control inits for idle threads and
kill unhash_process(). We don't need to cleanup ->proc_dentry in fork_idle()
because with this patch idle threads are never hashed in
kernel/pid.c:pid_hash[].
We don't need to hash pid == 0 in pidmap_init(). free_pidmap() is never
called with pid == 0 arg, so it will never be reused. So it is still possible
to use pid == 0 in any PIDTYPE_xxx namespace from kernel/pid.c's POV.
However with this patch we don't hash pid == 0 for PIDTYPE_PID case. We still
have have PIDTYPE_PGID/PIDTYPE_SID entries with pid == 0: /sbin/init and
kernel threads which don't call daemonize().

switch_exec_pids is only called from de_thread by way of exec, and it is
only called when we are exec'ing from a non thread group leader.
Currently switch_exec_pids gives the leader the pid of the thread and
unhashes and rehashes all of the process groups. The leader is already in
the EXIT_DEAD state so no one cares about it's pids. The only concern for
the leader is that __unhash_process called from release_task will function
correctly. If we don't touch the leader at all we know that
__unhash_process will work fine so there is no need to touch the leader.
For the task becomming the thread group leader, we just need to give it the
pid of the old thread group leader, add it to the task list, and attach it
to the session and the process group of the thread group.
Currently de_thread is also adding the task to the task list which is just
silly.
Currently the only leader of __detach_pid besides detach_pid is
switch_exec_pids because of the ugly extra work that was being
performed.
So this patch removes switch_exec_pids because it is doing too much, it is
creating an unnecessary special case in pid.c, duing work duplicated in
de_thread, and generally obscuring what it is going on.
The necessary work is added to de_thread, and it seems to be a little
clearer there what is going on.

After looking at the problem of init calling exec some more I figured out
an easy way to make the code work.
The actual symptom without out this patch is that all threads will die
except pid == 1, and the thread calling exec. The thread calling exec will
wait forever for pid == 1 to die.
Since pid == 1 does not install a handler for SIGKILL it will never die.
This modifies the tests for init from current->pid == 1 to the equivalent
current == child_reaper. And then it causes exec in the ugly case to
modify child_reaper.
The only weird symptom is that you wind up with an init process that
doesn't have the oldest start time on the box.

This patch adds support for the new XScale v3 core. This is an
ARMv5 ISA core with the following additions:
- L2 cache
- I/O coherency support (on select chipsets)
- Low-Locality Reference cache attributes (replaces mini-cache)
- Supersections (v6 compatible)
- 36-bit addressing (v6 compatible)
- Single instruction cache line clean/invalidate
- LRU cache replacement (vs round-robin)
I attempted to merge the XSC3 support into proc-xscale.S, but XSC3
cores have separate errata and have to handle things like L2, so it
is simpler to keep it separate.
L2 cache support is currently a build option because the L2 enable
bit must be set before we enable the MMU and there is no easy way to
capture command line parameters at this point.
There are still optimizations that can be done such as using LLR for
copypage (in theory using the exisiting mini-cache code) but those
can be addressed down the road.

[PATCH] Optimize select/poll by putting small data sets on the stack
Optimize select and poll by a using stack space for small fd sets
This brings back an old optimization from Linux 2.0. Using the stack is
faster than kmalloc. On a Intel P4 system it speeds up a select of a
single pty fd by about 13% (~4000 cycles -> ~3500)
It also saves memory because a daemon hanging in select or poll will
usually save one or two less pages. This can add up - e.g. if you have 10
daemons blocking in poll/select you save 40KB of memory.
I did a patch for this long ago, but it was never applied. This version is
a reimplementation of the old patch that tries to be less intrusive. I
only did the minimal changes needed for the stack allocation.
The cut off point before external memory is allocated is currently at
832bytes. The system calls always allocate this much memory on the stack.
These 832 bytes are divided into 256 bytes frontend data (for the select
bitmaps of the pollfds) and the rest of the space for the wait queues used
by the low level drivers. There are some extreme cases where this won't
work out for select and it falls back to allocating memory too early -
especially with very sparse large select bitmaps - but the majority of
processes who only have a small number of file descriptors should be ok.
[TBD: 832/256 might not be the best split for select or poll]
I suspect more optimizations might be possible, but they would be more
complicated. One way would be to cache the select/poll context over
multiple system calls because typically the input values should be similar.
Problem is when to flush the file descriptors out though.

Q:
Is there any particular reason why these routines weren't simply
implemented with local_save/restore_flags, if they are only meant to
guarantee atomicity to the local cpu? I'm sure on most platforms this

A:
The whole _point_ of local_t is to avoid local_irq_disable(). It's
designed to exploit the fact that many CPUs can do incs and decs in a way
which is atomic wrt local interrupts, but not atomic wrt SMP.
But this patch makes sense, because asm-generic/local.h is just a fallback
implementation for architectures which either cannot perform these
local-irq-atomic operations, or its maintainers haven't yet got around to
implementing them.
We need more work done on local_t in the 2.6.17 timeframe - they're defined as
unsigned long, but some architectures implement them as signed long.

[PATCH] RTC: Remove RTC UIP synchronization on x86
Reading the CMOS clock on x86 and some other arches currently takes up to one
second because it synchronizes with the CMOS second tick-over. This delay
shows up at boot time as well a resume time.
This is the currently the most substantial boot time delay for machines that
are working towards instant-on capability. Also, a quick back of the envelope
calculation (.5sec * 2M users * 1 boot a day * 10 years) suggests it has cost
Linux users in the neighborhood of a million man-hours.
..from which the consensus seems to be that it's no longer desirable.
In my view, there are basically four cases to consider:
1) networked, need precise walltime: use NTP
2) networked, don't need precise walltime: use NTP anyway
3) not networked, don't need sub-second precision walltime: don't care
4) not networked, need sub-second precision walltime:
get a network or a radio time source because RTC isn't good enough anyway
So this patch series simply removes the synchronization in favor of a simple
seqlock-like approach using the seconds value.
Note that for purposes of timer accuracy on wakeup, this patch will cause us
to fire timers up to one second late. But as the current timer resume code
will already sync once (or more!), it's no worse for short timers.
