2005-11-11[PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernelBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32 bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency. Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't have to change. I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a 64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-11-10[PATCH] powerpc: merge code values for identifying platformsPaul Mackerras
This patch merges platform codes. systemcfg->platform is no longer used, systemcfg use in general is deprecated as much as possible (and renamed _systemcfg before it gets completely moved elsewhere in a future patch), _machine is now used on ppc64 along as ppc32. Platform codes aren't gone yet but we are getting a step closer. A bunch of asm code in head[_64].S is also turned into C code.

2005-11-08[PATCH] ppc64: fix oprofile sample bit handlingAnton Blanchard
Oprofile was hardwiring the MMCRA sample bit to 1 but on newer cpus (eg POWER5) we want to vary it based on the group being sampled. Add a temporary workaround until people update their oprofile userspace. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-11-07[PATCH] Move Kprobes and Oprofile to "Instrumentation Support" menuPrasanna S Panchamukhi
Andrew Morton suggested to move kprobes from kernel hacking menu, since kernel hacking menu is in-appropriate for the Kprobes. This patch moves Kprobes and Oprofile under instrumentation menu. (akpm: it's not a natural fit, but things like djprobes and the s390 guys' statistics library need a home) Signed-of-by: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Cc: Philippe Elie <phil.el@wanadoo.fr> Cc: John Levon <levon@movementarian.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-10-20[PATCH] powerpc: Merge ppc64 pmc.[ch] with ppc32 perfmon.[ch]David Gibson
This patches the ppc32 and ppc64 versions of the headers and .c files with helper functions for manipulating the performance counting hardware. As a side effect, it removes use of the term "perfmon" from ppc32, thus avoiding confusion with the unrelated performance counter interface from HP Labs also called "perfmon". Built, but not booted, for g5, pSeries, iSeries, and 32-bit Powermac with both ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc{,64} as appropriate.

2005-09-28[PATCH] ppc32: make cur_cpu_spec a single pointer instead of an arrayKumar Gala
Changed ppc32 so that cur_cpu_spec is just a single pointer for all CPUs. Additionally, made call_setup_cpu check to see if the cpu_setup pointer is NULL or not before calling the function. This lets remove the dummy cpu_setup calls that just return. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <kumar.gala@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
