2008-03-07[POWERPC] 8xx: fix swapVitaly Bordug
This makes swap routines operate correctly on the ppc_8xx based machines. Code has been revalidated on mpc885ads (8M sdram) with recent kernel. Based on patch from Yuri Tikhonov <yur@emcraft.com> to do the same on arch/ppc instance. Recent kernel's size makes swap feature very important on low-memory platforms, those are actually non-operable without it.

2007-10-03[POWERPC] 8xx: Work around CPU15 erratum.Scott Wood
The CPU15 erratum on MPC8xx chips can cause incorrect code execution under certain circumstances, where there is a conditional or indirect branch in the last word of a page, with a target in the last cache line of the next page. This patch implements one of the suggested workarounds, by forcing a TLB miss whenever execution crosses a page boundary. This is done by invalidating the pages before and after the one being loaded into the TLB in the ITLB miss handler.

2007-10-03[POWERPC] 8xx: Fix CONFIG_PIN_TLB.Scott Wood
1. Move CONSISTENT_START on 8xx so that it doesn't overlap the IMMR mapping. 2. The wrong register was being loaded into SPRN_MD_RPN. Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

2007-09-14[POWERPC] Fix modpost warnings from head*.S on ppc32Kumar Gala
We get warnings like the following from the various ppc32 head*.S files: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x358): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:early_init (between 'skpinv' and 'interrupt_base') WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x380): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:machine_init (between 'skpinv' and 'interrupt_base') WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x384): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:MMU_init (between 'skpinv' and 'interrupt_base') WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x3aa): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:start_kernel (between 'skpinv' and 'interrupt_base') WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x3ae): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:start_kernel (between 'skpinv' and 'interrupt_base') Added a .text.head section simliar to what other architectures do since modpost already excludes this from its warnings.

2006-02-10[PATCH] powerpc: trivial: modify comments to refer to new location of filesJon Mason
This patch removes all self references and fixes references to files in the now defunct arch/ppc64 tree. I think this accomplises everything wanted, though there might be a few references I missed. Signed-off-by: Jon Mason <jdmason@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2005-10-01powerpc: merge idle_power4.S and trapc.sStephen Rothwell
Use idle_power4.S from ppc64 as we are not going to support 32 bit power4 in the merged tree. Merge ppc64 traps.c into powerpc traps.c: use ppc64 versions of exception routine names (as they don't have StudlyCaps) make all the versions if die() have the same prototype Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
2005-09-26powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc.Paul Mackerras
This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm, arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac. This is enough to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc. For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc. The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting.
