Subject: [GIT PULL] printk: Make it usable on nohz cpus
Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2012 21:37:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1352925457-15700-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)

Ingo,

Please pull the printk support in dynticks mode patches that can
be found at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks.git tags/printk-dynticks-for-mingo

This branch is based on top of v3.7-rc4
Head is 2fb933986dcef2db1344712162a1feb8d5736ff8:

  printk: Wake up klogd using irq_work (2012-11-14 17:45:37 +0100)

Since last version, very few things have changed:

* Added acks from Steve on patches 1/7 and 2/7
* Fixed an arch_needs_cpu() redefinition due to misordered headers (reported
by Wu Fengguang).

If you get further acks from Peterz or anybody, feel free to cherry pick
the patches instead. Or I can rebase my patches to add them, either way.

Thanks.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Support for printk in dynticks mode:

* Fix two races in irq work claiming

* Generalize irq_work support to all archs

* Don't stop tick with irq works pending. This
fix is generally useful and concerns archs that
can't raise self IPIs.

* Introduce "lazy" irq works that can wait for the
next tick to be executed, unless it's stopped.

* Implement klogd wake up using irq work. This
removes the ad-hoc printk_tick()/printk_needs_cpu()
hooks and make it working even in dynticks mode.
