[PATCH 00/12] clocksource/timekeeping cleanup

[PATCH 00/12] clocksource/timekeeping cleanup

[Daniel Walker]

This patchset represents the most stable clocksource changes in my tree. Also
John (and others) have reviewed these changes a few times. I think it's all 
acceptable.

[PATCH 01/12] timekeeping: create kernel/time/timekeeping.c

[Daniel Walker]

[-- Attachment #1: timekeeping_move_out_of_timer_c.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 38400 bytes --]

Move the generic timekeeping code from kernel/timer.c to
kernel/time/timekeeping.c . This requires some glue code which is
added to the include/linux/timekeeping.h header.

[PATCH 02/12] clocksource: rating sorted list

[Daniel Walker]

[-- Attachment #1: clocksource_priority_sorted_list.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 9248 bytes --]

Converts the original plain list into a sorted list based on the clock rating.
Later in my tree this allows some of the variables to be dropped since the
highest rated clock is always at the front of the list. This also does some
other nice things like allow the sysfs files to print the clocks in a more
interesting order. It's forward looking.

[PATCH 09/12] clocksource: initialize list value

[Daniel Walker]

[-- Attachment #1: clocksource_list_init.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1666 bytes --]

A change to clocksource initialization. If the list field is initialized 
it allows clocksource_register to complete faster since it doesn't have 
to scan the list of clocks doing strcmp on each looking for duplicates.

[-- Attachment #1: clocksource_remove_update_callback.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 7213 bytes --]

Uses the block notifier to replace the functionality of update_callback().
update_callback() was a special case specifically for the tsc, but including
it in the clocksource structure duplicated it needlessly for other clocks.

[PATCH 12/12] clocksource: atomic signals

[Daniel Walker]

[-- Attachment #1: clocksource_add_atomic_singals.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5815 bytes --]

Modifies the way clocks are switched to in the timekeeping code. The original
code would constantly monitor the clocksource list checking for newly added
clocksources. I modified this by using atomic types to signal when a new clock
is added. This allows the operation to be used only when it's needed.

The fast path is also reduced to checking a single atomic value.

Looks good to me, although I suppose it wouldn't hurt to include
<linux/list.h> as well since there seems to be an ongoing effort to
reduce the number of files that are included implicitly through other
headers. Might save us from some trouble later.

I've closed your support request, so you shouldn't expect a reply from
avr32@atmel.com (I was going to reply through the support system, but
I couldn't figure out how to prevent it from top-quoting.) Probably
best if you send patches directly to me at hskinnemoen@atmel.com, but
the support address is a nice fallback if I'm unable to respond for
some reason.

It shouldn't be outright implicit since it's included in clocksource.h .
That has to be included before you can create a clocksource. I could see
adding list.h if it wasn't clear which include was bringing it in.

I got that address from the maintainers file,

I just picked the top address .. If it makes sense you might want to

Ah, of course. Just disregard that suggestion, then.

Right. I guess we should at least switch the order so that I'm the
first one on the list. I'll have a chat with the support guys, maybe we
should just drop that address from MAINTAINERS.
