2005-04-27[IA64] need r29=psr *after* rsm psr.iDavid Mosberger-Tang
Yanmin Zhang pointed out a sequence problem when saving the psr. David Mosberger provided this patch (which gave up a cycle). Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2005-04-27[IA64] Annotate __kernel_syscall_via_epc() with McKinley dispatch info.David Mosberger-Tang
Two other very minor changes: use "mov.i" instead of "mov" for reading ar.pfs (for clarity; doesn't affect the code at all). Also, predicate the load of r14 for consistency. Signed-off-by: David Mosberger-Tang <davidm@hpl.hp.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2005-04-27[IA64] Reschedule __kernel_syscall_via_epc().David Mosberger-Tang
Avoid some stalls, which is good for about 2 cycles when invoking a light-weight handler. When invoking a heavy-weight handler, this helps by about 7 cycles, with most of the improvement coming from the improved branch-prediction achieved by splitting the BBB bundle into two MIB bundles.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
