2006-06-29	[PATCH] genirq: rename desc->handler to desc->chip	Ingo Molnar
	This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing functionality. While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is the new 'irq chip' abstraction. The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow" (level/edge/etc.) type of details. This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details. The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design. As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers (master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well. The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code and more consolidation between architectures. We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset. This patch: rename desc->handler to desc->chip. Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch. But having both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it truly is. I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke frequently. So lets get over with this quickly. The conversion was done automatically via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel. This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

2005-10-21	[PARISC] Convert parisc_device tree to use struct device klists	Matthew Wilcox
	Fix parse_tree_node. much more needs to be done to fix this file. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@parisc-linux.org> Make drivers.c compile based on a patch from Pat Mochel. From: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org> Fix drivers.c to create new device tree nodes when no match is found. Signed-off-by: Richard Hirst <rhirst@parisc-linux.org> Do a proper depth-first search returning parents before children, using the new klist infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Richard Hirst <rhirst@parisc-linux.org> Fixed parisc_device traversal so that pdc_stable works again Fixed check_dev so it doesn't dereference a parisc_device until it has verified the bus type Signed-off-by: Randolph Chung <tausq@parisc-linux.org> Convert pa_dev->hpa from an unsigned long to a struct resource. Use insert_resource() instead of request_mem_region(). Request resources at bus walk time instead of driver probe time. Don't release the resources as we don't have any hotplug parisc_device support yet. Add parisc_pathname() to conveniently get the textual representation of the hwpath used in sysfs. Inline the remnants of claim_device() into its caller. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@parisc-linux.org> I noticed that some of the STI regions weren't showing up in iomem. Reading the STI spec indicated that all STI devices occupy at least 32MB. So check for STI HPAs and give them 32MB instead of 4kB.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds
	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!
