2006-05-04[ARM] 3490/1: i.MX: move uart resources to board filesSascha Hauer
Patch from Sascha Hauer This patch moves the i.MX uart resources and the gpio pin setup to the board files. This allows the boards to decide how many internal uarts are connected to the outside world and whether they use rts/cts or not.

2006-05-03[PATCH] uml: change timer initializationJeff Dike
inet_init, which schedules, is called before the UML timer_init, which sets up the timer. The result is the interval timers being manipulated before the appropriate signal handlers are established, causing unhandled timers. This is fixed by making timer_init be called earlier.

2006-05-03[PATCH] powerpc: Use the ibm,pa-features property if availablePaul Mackerras
Forthcoming IBM machines will have a "ibm,pa-features" property on CPU nodes, that contains bits indicating which optional architecture features are implemented by the CPU. This adds code to use the property, if present, to update our CPU feature bitmaps. Note that this means we can both set and clear feature bits based on what the firmware tells us. This is based on a patch by Will Schmidt <willschm@us.ibm.com>. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-05-03[PATCH] powerpc/kprobes: fix singlestep out-of-lineAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli
We currently single-step inline if the instruction on which a kprobe is inserted is a trap variant. - variants (such as tdnei, used by BUG()) typically evaluate a condition and cause a trap only if the condition is satisfied. - kprobes uses the unconditional "trap" (0x7fe00008) and single-stepping again on this instruction, resulting in another trap without evaluating the condition is obviously incorrect.

2006-05-03[PATCH] powerpc/pseries: avoid crash in PCI code if mem system not upLinas Vepstas
The powerpc code is currently performing PCI setup before memory initialization. PCI setup touches PCI config space registers. If the PCI card is bad, this will evoke an error, which currrently can't be handled, as the PCI error recovery code expects kmalloc() to be functional. This patch will cause the system to punt instead of crashing with cpu 0x0: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c0000000004434d0] pc: c0000000000c06b4: .kmem_cache_alloc+0x8c/0xf4 lr: c00000000004ad6c: .eeh_send_failure_event+0x48/0xfc This patch will also print name of the offending pci device.

2006-05-01[PATCH] x86_64: make PC Speaker driver workMikael Pettersson
The PC Speaker driver's ->probe() routine doesn't even get called in the 64-bit kernels. The reason for that is that the arch code apparently has to explictly add a "pcspkr" platform device in order for the driver core to call the ->probe() routine. arch/i386/kernel/setup.c unconditionally adds a "pcspkr" device, but the x86_64 kernel has no code at all related to the PC Speaker. The patch below copies the relevant code from i386 to x86_64, which makes the PC Speaker work for me on x86_64.

Change of_node_to_nid() to traverse the device tree, looking for a numa id. Cell uses this to assign ids to SPUs, which are children of the CPU node. Existing users of of_node_to_nid() are altered to use of_node_to_nid_single(), which doesn't do the traversal. Export an attach_sysdev_to_node() function, allowing system devices (eg.

Based on an older patch from Mike Kravetz <kravetz@us.ibm.com> We need to have a mem_map for high addresses in order to make fops->no_page work on spufs mem and register files. So far, we have used the memory_present() function during early bootup, but that did not work when CONFIG_NUMA was enabled. We now use the __add_pages() function to add the mem_map when loading the spufs module, which is a lot nicer.

2006-05-01[PATCH] uml: cleanup unprofile expression and build infrastructurePaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
*) Rather than duplicate in various buggy ways the application of CFLAGS_NO_HARDENING and UNPROFILE (which apply to the same files), centralize it in Makefile.rules. UNPROFILE_OBJS mustn't be listed in USER_OBJS but are compiled as such. I've also verified that unprofile didn't work in the current form, because we set _c_flags directly (using CFLAGS and not USER_CFLAGS, which is wrong), which is normally used by c_flags, but we also override c_flags for all USER_OBJS, and there we don't call unprofile. Instead it only worked for unmap.o, the only one which wasn't a USER_OBJ. We need to set c_flags (which is not a public Kbuild API) to clear a lot of compilation flags like -nostdinc which Kbuild forces on everything. *) Rather than $(CFLAGS_$(notdir $@)), which expands to CFLAGS_anObj.s when building "anObj.s", use $(CFLAGS_$(*F).o) which always accesses CFLAGS_anObj.o, like done by Kbuild. *) Make c_flags apply to all targets having the same basename, rather than listing .s, .i, .lst and .o, with the use (which I tested) of $(USER_OBJS:.o=.%): c_flags = ... and of - $(obj)/unmap.c: _c_flags = ... + $(obj)/unmap.%: _c_flags = ...

2006-05-01[PATCH] uml: fix compilation and execution with hardened GCCPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
To make some half-assembly stubs compile, disable various "hardened" GCC features: *) we can't make it build PIC code as we need %ebx to do syscalls and GCC wants it free for PIC *) we can't leave stack protection as the stub is moved (not relocated!) in memory so the RIP-relative access to the canary tries reading from an unmapped address and causes a segfault, since we move the stub of various megabytes (the exact amount will be decided at runtime) away from the link-time address.

2006-04-28[PATCH] Mark VMSPLIT EMBEDDEDAndi Kleen
Running abnormal VM splits causes weird problems - people can set non-standard splits by accident, then lots of time gets wasted diagnosing it - see the long "[stable] 2.6.16.6 breaks java... sort of" email thread. So we need to make this option harder to set. Use CONFIG_EMBEDDED for this. CONFIG_EMBEDDED isn't really the right thing to use, but there's nothing else obvious and avoiding these problems is more important than Kconfig purity.
