Jan Blunck a666ecfbf5 [PATCH] Fix typo in "syntax error if percpu macros are incorrectly used" patch
Trivial typo fix in the "syntax error if percpu macros are incorrectly
used" patch.  I misspelled "identifier" in all places.  D'Oh!

Thanks to Dirk Mueller to point this out.

Jan Blunck 632bbfeee4 [PATCH] trigger a syntax error if percpu macros are incorrectly used
get_cpu_var()/per_cpu()/__get_cpu_var() arguments must be simple
identifiers.  Otherwise the arch dependent implementations might break.

This patch enforces the correct usage of the macros by producing a syntax
error if the variable is not a simple identifier.

Eric W. Biederman ba4d40bb5c [PATCH] Auto size the per cpu area.
Now for a completely different but trivial approach.
I just boot tested it with 255 CPUS and everything worked.

Currently everything (except module data) we place in
the per cpu area we know about at compile time.  So
instead of allocating a fixed size for the per_cpu area
allocate the number of bytes we need plus a fixed constant
for to be used for modules.

It isn't perfect but it is much less of a pain to
work with than what we are doing now.

AK: fixed warning

Paul Mackerras bfe5d83419 [PATCH] Define __raw_get_cpu_var and use it
There are several instances of per_cpu(foo, raw_smp_processor_id()), which
is semantically equivalent to __get_cpu_var(foo) but without the warning
that smp_processor_id() can give if CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled.  For
those architectures with optimized per-cpu implementations, namely ia64,
powerpc, s390, sparc64 and x86_64, per_cpu() turns into more and slower
code than __get_cpu_var(), so it would be preferable to use __get_cpu_var
on those platforms.

This defines a __raw_get_cpu_var(x) macro which turns into per_cpu(x,
raw_smp_processor_id()) on architectures that use the generic per-cpu
implementation, and turns into __get_cpu_var(x) on the architectures that
have an optimized per-cpu implementation.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 676ff453e5 [PATCH] for_each_possible_cpu: x86_64
for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs.  We've had
mistakes in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they
should have been iterating across only online or present CPUs.  This is
inefficient and possibly buggy.

We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this
in the future.

This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu.

Andrew Morton 394e3902c5 [PATCH] more for_each_cpu() conversions
When we stop allocating percpu memory for not-possible CPUs we must not touch
the percpu data for not-possible CPUs at all.  The correct way of doing this
is to test cpu_possible() or to use for_each_cpu().

This patch is a kernel-wide sweep of all instances of NR_CPUS.  I found very
few instances of this bug, if any.  But the patch converts lots of open-coded
test to use the preferred helper macros.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
