2008-03-15[PARISC] pdc_console: fix bizarre panic on bootKyle McMartin
Commit 721fdf34167580ff98263c74cead8871d76936e6 introduced a subtle bug by accidently removing the "static" from iodc_dbuf. This resulted in, what appeared to be, a trap without *current set to a task. Probably the result of a trap in real mode while calling firmware. Also do other misc clean ups. Since the only input from firmware is non blocking, share iodc_dbuf between input and output, and spinlock the only callers. Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>
2007-12-06[PARISC] print more than one character at a time for pdc consoleKyle McMartin
There's really no reason not to print more than one character at a time to the PDC console... Booting is measurably speedier, and now I don't have to watch individual characters get drawn. Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca>

2006-10-07[PARISC] Make firmware calls irqsafe-ish...Kyle McMartin
There's no reason why we shouldn't be using _irqsave instead of _irq for any of these calls. fwiw, this fixes the "start_kernel(): bug: interrupts were enabled early" message displayed on bootup recently.

2006-10-01[PATCH] proper flags type of spin_lock_irqsave()Alexey Dobriyan
Convert various spin_lock_irqsave() callers to correctly use `unsigned long'.

2006-06-27[PARISC] OS_ID_LINUX == 0x0006Kyle McMartin
We were assigned an OS_ID of 0x0006. Consistently use OS_ID_LINUX instead of using the magic number. Also update the OS_ID_ defines in asm/pdc.h to reflect this. Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>
2006-06-27[PARISC] Ensure Space ID hashing is turned offKyle McMartin
Check PDC_CACHE to see if spaceid hashing is turned on, and fail to boot if that is the case. However, some old machines do not implement the PDC_CACHE_RET_SPID firmware call, so continue to boot if the call fails because of PDC_BAD_OPTION (but fail in all other error returns).

2006-06-27[PARISC] PDC_CHASSIS is implemented on all machinesThibaut Varene
This patch removes a limitation of the original code, so that CHASSIS codes can be sent to all machines. On machines with a LCD panel, this code displays "INI" during bootup, "RUN" when the system is booted and running, "FLT" when a panic occurs, etc. This part of the code can be enabled/disabled through CONFIG_PDC_CHASSIS This patch also adds minimalistic support for Chassis warnings, through a proc entry '/proc/chassis', which will reflect the warnings status (PSU or fans failure when they happen, NVRAM battery level and temperature thresholds overflows). This part of the code can be enabled/disabled through CONFIG_PDC_CHASSIS_WARN Signed-off-by: Thibaut VARENE <varenet@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
