2005-11-10[PATCH] powerpc: Consolidate asm compatibility macrosDavid Gibson
This patch consolidates macros used to generate assembly for compatibility across different CPUs or configs. A new header, asm-powerpc/asm-compat.h contains the main compatibility macros. It uses some preprocessor magic to make the macros suitable both for use in .S files, and in inline asm in .c files. Headers (bitops.h, uaccess.h, atomic.h, bug.h) which had their own such compatibility macros are changed to use asm-compat.h. ppc_asm.h is now for use in .S files *only*, and a #error enforces that. As such, we're a lot more careless about namespace pollution here than in asm-compat.h. While we're at it, this patch adds a call to the PPC405_ERR77 macro in futex.h which should have had it already, but didn't. Built and booted on pSeries, Maple and iSeries (ARCH=powerpc). Built for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc). Signed-off-by: David Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-10-26powerpc: Fixes to get the Longtrail CHRP a bit furtherPaul Mackerras
Talk about buggy firmware... the OF on the Longtrail returns 0 from the claim client service rather than -1 when the claim fails. It also has no device_type on the /memory node and blows up if the output buffer for package-to-path is too big. This also fixes a bug with calling alloc_up with align == 0, where we did _ALIGN_UP(alloc_bottom, 0) which will end up as 0. Lastly, we now check the return value (in r3) from calling the prom, and return -1 from call_prom if we get a negative value back. That is supposed to indicate that the requested client service doesn't exist. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-10-23powerpc: Make coff boot wrapper load the kernel at 8MPaul Mackerras
Previously it claimed 7MB starting at the 9M point and loaded the kernel there. That meant that prom_init put the flattened device tree above 16M. On the 601 that caused the early device tree scan to fail, since only 16MB are mapped with BATs on the 601. Moving this down to 8MB allows prom_init to put the flattened device tree between 15M and 16M, so it works on the 601. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2005-06-21[PATCH] ppc32: Kill embedded system.map, use kallsymsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch kills the whole embedded System.map mecanism and the bootloader-passed System.map that was used to provide symbol resolution in xmon. Instead, xmon now uses kallsyms like ppc64 does. No hurry getting that in Linus tree, let it be tested in -mm for a while first and make sure it doesn't break various embedded configs.

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!
