Pull core locking changes from Ingo Molnar: - futex performance increases: larger hashes, smarter wakeups - mutex debugging improvements - lots of SMP ordering documentation updates - introduce the smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release() primitives. (There are WIP patches that make use of them - not yet merged) - lockdep micro-optimizations - lockdep improvement: better cover IRQ contexts - liblockdep at last. We'll continue to monitor how useful this is * 'core-locking-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (34 commits) futexes: Fix futex_hashsize initialization arch: Re-sort some Kbuild files to hopefully help avoid some conflicts futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up futexes: Document multiprocessor ordering guarantees futexes: Increase hash table size for better performance futexes: Clean up various details arch: Introduce smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release() arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.h arch: Move smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic_{inc,dec}.h into asm/atomic.h locking/doc: Rename LOCK/UNLOCK to ACQUIRE/RELEASE mutexes: Give more informative mutex warning in the !lock->owner case powerpc: Full barrier for smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() rcu: Apply smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() to preserve grace periods Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Downgrade UNLOCK+BLOCK locking: Add an smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() for UNLOCK+BLOCK barrier Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Document ACCESS_ONCE() Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Prohibit speculative writes Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Add long atomic examples to memory-barriers.txt Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Add needed ACCESS_ONCE() calls to memory-barriers.txt Revert "smp/cpumask: Make CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y usable without debug dependency" ... |
