[PATCH] Input: evdev - drop partial events after emptying the buffer

This patch introduces concept to drop partial events in evdev handler itself after emptying the buffer which are dropped by all evdev clients in userspace after SYN_DROPPED occurs. This in turn saves space of partial events in evdev handler buffer and reduces evdev client reading requests. Signed-

[PATCH 21/34] metag: define __smp_xxx

This defines __smp_XXX barriers for metag, for use by virtualization. smp_XXX barriers are removed as they are defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h Note: as __smp_XX macros should not depend on CONFIG_SMP, they can not use the existing fence() macro since that is defined differently betwee

This defines __smp_XXX barriers for mips, for use by virtualization. smp_XXX barriers are removed as they are defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h Note: the only exception is smp_mb__before_llsc which is mips-specific. We define both the __smp_mb__before_llsc variant (for use in asm/barrie

This defines __smp_XXX barriers for s390, for use by virtualization. Some smp_XXX barriers are removed as they are defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h Note: smp_mb, smp_rmb and smp_wmb are defined as full barriers unconditionally on this architecture. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin -

[PATCH 31/34] xenbus: use __smp_xxx barriers

drivers/xen/xenbus/xenbus_comms.c uses full memory barriers to communicate with the other side. For guests compiled with CONFIG_SMP, smp_wmb and smp_mb would be sufficient, so mb() and wmb() here are only needed if a non-SMP guest runs on an SMP host. Switch to __smp_XXX barriers which serve this

This defines __smp_XXX barriers for tile, for use by virtualization. Some smp_XXX barriers are removed as they are defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h Note: for 32 bit, keep smp_mb__after_atomic around since it's faster than the generic implementation. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin

[PATCH 24/34] sh: define __smp_xxx, fix smp_store_mb for !SMP

sh variant of smp_store_mb() calls xchg() on !SMP which is stronger than implied by both the name and the documentation. define __smp_store_mb instead: code in asm-generic/barrier.h will then define smp_store_mb correctly depending on CONFIG_SMP. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin --- arch/sh/in
