2008-10-16fbdev: ignore VESA modes if framebuffer does not support themMichal Januszewski
Currently, it is possible to set a graphics VESA mode at boot time via the vga= parameter even when no framebuffer driver supporting this is configured. This could lead to the system booting with a black screen, without a usable console. Fix this problem by only allowing to set graphics modes at boot time if a supporting framebuffer driver is configured.

2008-10-16x86: rename iommu_num_pages function to iommu_nr_pagesJoerg Roedel
This series of patches re-introduces the iommu_num_pages function so that it can be used by each architecture specific IOMMU implementations. The series also changes IOMMU implementations for X86, Alpha, PowerPC and UltraSparc. The other implementations are not yet changed because the modifications required are not obvious and I can't test them on real hardware.

2008-10-16compat: move cp_compat_stat to common codeChristoph Hellwig
struct stat / compat_stat is the same on all architectures, so cp_compat_stat should be, too. Turns out it is, except that various architectures have slightly and some high2lowuid/high2lowgid or the direct assignment instead of the SET_UID/SET_GID that expands to the correct one anyway.

2008-10-16Make the taint flags reliableAndi Kleen
It's somewhat unlikely that it happens, but right now a race window between interrupts or machine checks or oopses could corrupt the tainted bitmap because it is modified in a non atomic fashion. Convert the taint variable to an unsigned long and use only atomic bit operations on it. Unfortunately this means the intvec sysctl functions cannot be used on it anymore. It turned out the taint sysctl handler could actually be simplified a bit (since it only increases capabilities) so this patch actually removes code.

2008-10-14x86: register a platform RTC device if PNP doesn't describe itBjorn Helgaas
Most if not all x86 platforms have an RTC device, but sometimes the RTC is not exposed as a PNP0b00/PNP0b01/PNP0b02 device in PNPBIOS or ACPI: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11580 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451188 It's best if we can discover the RTC via PNP because then we know which flavor of device it is, where it lives, and which IRQ it uses. But if we can't, we should register a platform device using the compiled-in RTC_PORT/RTC_IRQ resource assumptions. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Acked-by: Rafael J.

2008-10-13x86: allow number of additional hotplug CPUs to be set at compile time, V2Chuck Ebbert
x86: allow number of additional hotplug CPUs to be set at compile time, V2 The default number of additional CPU IDs for hotplugging is determined by asking ACPI or mptables how many "disabled" CPUs there are in the system, but many systems get this wrong so that e.g. a uniprocessor machine gets an extra CPU allocated and never switches to single CPU mode. And sometimes CPU hotplugging is enabled only for suspend/hibernate anyway, so the additional CPU IDs are not wanted. Allow the number to be set to zero at compile time. Also, force the number of extra CPUs to zero if hotplugging is disabled which allows removing some conditional code. Tested on uniprocessor x86_64 that ACPI claims has a disabled processor, with CPU hotplugging configured. ("After" has the number of additional CPUs set to 0) Before: NR_CPUS: 512, nr_cpu_ids: 2, nr_node_ids 1 After: NR_CPUS: 512, nr_cpu_ids: 1, nr_node_ids 1 [Changed the name of the option and the prompt according to Ingo's suggestion.] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
