2005-09-09[PATCH] Separate pci bits out of struct device_nodePaul Mackerras
This patch pulls the PCI-related junk out of struct device_node and puts it in a separate structure, struct pci_dn. The device_node now just has a void * pointer in it, which points to a struct pci_dn for nodes that represent PCI devices. It could potentially be used in future for device-specific data for other sorts of devices, such as virtual I/O devices. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-08-29[PATCH] flattened device tree changesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch updates the format of the flattened device-tree passed between the boot trampoline and the kernel to support a more compact representation, for use by embedded systems mostly.

2005-06-01[PATCH] ppc32/ppc64: cleanup /proc/device-treeBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This cleans up the /proc/device-tree representation of the Open Firmware device-tree on ppc and ppc64. It does the following things: - Workaround an issue in some Apple device-trees where a property may exist with the same name as a child node of the parent. We now simply "drop" the property instead of creating duplicate entries in /proc with random result... - Do not try to chop off the "@0" at the end of a node name whose unit address is 0. This is not useful, inconsistent, and the code was buggy and didn't always work anyway. - Do not create symlinks for the short name and unit address parts of a node. These were never really used, bloated the memory footprint of the device-tree with useless struct proc_dir_entry and their matching dentry and inode cache bloat. This results in smaller code, smaller memory footprint, and a more accurate view of the tree presented to userland.

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!
