From 72486f1f8f0a2bc828b9d30cf4690cf2dd6807fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Siddha, Suresh B" Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2006 02:14:10 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] i386: change the 'no_control' field to 'hotpluggable' in the struct cpu Change the 'no_control' field in the cpu struct to a more positive and better term 'hotpluggable'. And change(/cleanup) the logic accordingly.

The freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer. There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag. If those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing. However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time. So, this patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot. It also introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency. The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released immediately. But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are marked as garbages. collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release "dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if there are no unused slots.
