If CONFIG_FTRACE is selected and /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is
set to a non-zero value the ftrace routine will be called everytime
we enter a kernel function that is not marked with the "notrace"
attribute.
The ftrace routine will then call a registered function if a function
happens to be registered.
[ This code has been highly hacked by Steven Rostedt and Ingo Molnar,
so don't blame Arnaldo for all of this ;-) ]
Update:
It is now possible to register more than one ftrace function.
If only one ftrace function is registered, that will be the
function that ftrace calls directly. If more than one function
is registered, then ftrace will call a function that will loop
through the functions to call.

notrace signals that a function should not be traced. Most of the
time this is used by tracers to annotate code that cannot be
traced - it's in a volatile state (such as in user vdso context

The for_each_cpu_mask loop is used quite often in the kernel. It
makes use of two functions: first_cpu and next_cpu. This patch
changes for_each_cpu_mask to use only the latter. Because next_cpu
finds the next eligible cpu _after_ the given one, the iteration
variable has to be initialized to -1 and next_cpu has to be
called with this value before the first iteration. An x86_64
defconfig kernel (from sched/latest) is about 2500 bytes smaller

* Increase performance for systems with large count NR_CPUS by limiting
the range of the cpumask operators that loop over the bits in a cpumask_t
variable. This removes a large amount of wasted cpu cycles.
* Add performance variants of the cpumask operators:
int cpus_weight_nr(mask) Same using nr_cpu_ids instead of NR_CPUS
int first_cpu_nr(mask) Number lowest set bit, or nr_cpu_ids
int next_cpu_nr(cpu, mask) Next cpu past 'cpu', or nr_cpu_ids
for_each_cpu_mask_nr(cpu, mask) for-loop cpu over mask using nr_cpu_ids
* Modify following to use performance variants:
#define num_online_cpus() cpus_weight_nr(cpu_online_map)
#define num_possible_cpus() cpus_weight_nr(cpu_possible_map)
#define num_present_cpus() cpus_weight_nr(cpu_present_map)
#define for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
#define for_each_online_cpu(cpu) for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
#define for_each_present_cpu(cpu) for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
* Comment added to include/linux/cpumask.h:
Note: The alternate operations with the suffix "_nr" are used
to limit the range of the loop to nr_cpu_ids instead of
NR_CPUS when NR_CPUS > 64 for performance reasons.
If NR_CPUS is <= 64 then most assembler bitmask
operators execute faster with a constant range, so
the operator will continue to use NR_CPUS.
Another consideration is that nr_cpu_ids is initialized
to NR_CPUS and isn't lowered until the possible cpus are
discovered (including any disabled cpus). So early uses
will span the entire range of NR_CPUS.
(The net effect is that for systems with 64 or less CPU's there are no
functional changes.)

Since 2.6.25 the HID_QUIRK_APPLE_HAS_FN quirk is enabled even for
non-laptop Apple keyboards of the Aluminium series. The USB version of
these don't need Numlock emulation, like the laptop (and Aluminium
Wireless) do, as they have a proper keypad.
This patch splits the Numlock emulation for Apple keyboards in a
different quirk flag, so that it can be enabled for all the keyboards
but the Aluminium USB ones.
If the Numlock emulation is enabled for Aluminium USB keyboards, the
JKL and UIO keys become the numeric pad, and the rest of the keyboard
is disabled, included the key used to disable Numlock.
Additionally, these keyboard should not have a Numlock at all, as the
Numlock key is instead replaced by the 'Clear' key as usual for Apple
USB keyboards.

An NFS_WRITE requires a set of RDMA_READ requests to fetch the write
data from the client. There are two principal pieces of data that
need to be tracked: the list of pages that comprise the completed RPC
and the SGE of dma mapped pages to refer to this list of pages. Previously
this whole bit was managed as a linked list of contexts with the
context containing the page list buried in this list. This patch
simplifies this processing by not keeping a linked list, but rather only
a pionter from the last submitted RDMA_READ's context to the context
that maps the set of pages that describe the RPC. This significantly
simplifies this code path. SGE contexts are cleaned up inline in the DTO
path instead of at read completion time.

Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h.
This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the
kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this
list.h without creating some circular dependencies.
For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference()
without including rcupdate.h. It actually compiles because users of
rcu_dereference() are macros. Others RCU functions could be used too but
aren't probably because of this.
Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to
many changes/troubles.

Fourth cut of patch to provide the call_rcu_sched(). This is again to
synchronize_sched() as call_rcu() is to synchronize_rcu().
Should be fine for experimental and -rt use, but not ready for inclusion.
With some luck, I will be able to tell Andrew to come out of hiding on
the next round.
Passes multi-day rcutorture sessions with concurrent CPU hotplugging.
Fixes since the first version include a bug that could result in
indefinite blocking (spotted by Gautham Shenoy), better resiliency
against CPU-hotplug operations, and other minor fixes.
Fixes since the second version include reworking grace-period detection
to avoid deadlocks that could happen when running concurrently with
CPU hotplug, adding Mathieu's fix to avoid the softlockup messages,
as well as Mathieu's fix to allow use earlier in boot.
Fixes since the third version include a wrong-CPU bug spotted by
Andrew, getting rid of the obsolete synchronize_kernel API that somehow
snuck back in, merging spin_unlock() and local_irq_restore() in a
few places, commenting the code that checks for quiescent states based
on interrupting from user-mode execution or the idle loop, removing
some inline attributes, and some code-style changes.
Known/suspected shortcomings:
o I still do not entirely trust the sleep/wakeup logic. Next step
will be to use a private snapshot of the CPU online mask in
rcu_sched_grace_period() -- if the CPU wasn't there at the start
of the grace period, we don't need to hear from it. And the
bit about accounting for changes in online CPUs inside of
rcu_sched_grace_period() is ugly anyway.
o It might be good for rcu_sched_grace_period() to invoke
resched_cpu() when a given CPU wasn't responding quickly,
but resched_cpu() is declared static...
This patch also fixes a long-standing bug in the earlier preemptable-RCU
implementation of synchronize_rcu() that could result in loss of
concurrent external changes to a task's CPU affinity mask. I still cannot
remember who reported this...
