      [PATCH] powerpc: Merge signal.h · c5ff7001
      David Gibson authored 
      

Having already merged the ppc and ppc64 versions of signal.c, this
patch finishes the job by merging signal.h.  The two versions were
almost identical already.  Notable changes:
	- We use BITS_PER_LONG to correctly size sigset_t
	- Remove some uneeded #includes and struct forward
declarations.  This does mean adding an include to signal_32.c which
relied on the indirect inclusion of sigcontext.h
	- As the ppc64 version, the merged signal.h has prototypes for
do_signal() and do_signal32().  Thus remove extra prototypes from
ppc_ksyms.c which had them directly.

Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc).  Built
for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc).

      [PATCH] ppc64: add MODALIAS= for vio bus · 143dcec2
      Olaf Hering authored 
      

A non-broken udev would autoload also the drivers for devices on the
pseries vio bus, like ibmveth, ibmvscsic and hvsc.  This is similar to pci,
usb and ieee1394:

 /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.alias
alias vio:TvscsiSIBM,v-scsi* ibmvscsic
alias vio:TnetworkSIBM,l-lan* ibmveth
alias vio:Tserial-serverShvterm2* hvcs

/events/debug.00004.pci.add.1394:MODALIAS='pci:v00001014d00000188sv00000000sd00000000bc06sc04i0f'
/events/debug.00005.pci.add.1509:MODALIAS='pci:v00008086d00001229sv00001014sd000001FFbc02sc00i00'
/events/debug.00026.vio.add.1519:MODALIAS='vio:TserialShvterm1'
/events/debug.00027.vio.add.1446:MODALIAS='vio:TvscsiSIBM,v-scsi'
/events/debug.00028.vio.add.1451:MODALIAS='vio:TnetworkSIBM,l-lan'

      [PATCH] powerpc: Merge bitops.h · a0e60b20
      David Gibson authored 
      

Here's a revised version.  This re-introduces the set_bits() function
from ppc64, which I removed because I thought it was unused (it exists
on no other arch).  In fact it is used in the powermac interrupt code
(but not on pSeries).

- We use LARXL/STCXL macros to generate the right (32 or 64 bit)
  instructions, similar to LDL/STL from ppc_asm.h, used in fpu.S

- ppc32 previously used a full "sync" barrier at the end of
  test_and_*_bit(), whereas ppc64 used an "isync".  The merged version
  uses "isync", since I believe that's sufficient.

- The ppc64 versions of then minix_*() bitmap functions have changed
  semantics.  Previously on ppc64, these functions were big-endian
  (that is bit 0 was the LSB in the first 64-bit, big-endian word).
  On ppc32 (and x86, for that matter, they were little-endian.  As far
  as I can tell, the big-endian usage was simply wrong - I guess
  no-one ever tried to use minixfs on ppc64.

- On ppc32 find_next_bit() and find_next_zero_bit() are no longer
  inline (they were already out-of-line on ppc64).

- For ppc64, sched_find_first_bit() has moved from mmu_context.h to
  the merged bitops.  What it was doing in mmu_context.h in the first
  place, I have no idea.

- The fls() function is now implemented using the cntlzw instruction
  on ppc64, instead of generic_fls(), as it already was on ppc32.

- For ARCH=ppc, this patch requires adding arch/powerpc/lib to the
  arch/ppc/Makefile.  This in turn requires some changes to
  arch/powerpc/lib/Makefile which didn't correctly handle ARCH=ppc.

Built and running on G5.

      [PATCH] powerpc: move rtas_fw.c out of platforms/pseries · e9add2ee
      Arnd Bergmann authored 
      

Cell uses the same code as pSeries for flashing the firmware
through rtas, so the implementation should not be part of
platforms/pseries.

Put it into arch/powerpc/kernel instead.

By parsing the command line earlier, we can add the mem= value to the
flattened device tree and let the generic code sort out the memory limit
for us.
