	Remove CONFIG_DEBUG_IOREMAP, it's now obsolete and won't work anyway. Remove it from lib/KConfig since it was only available on parisc. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>
2005-10-21	[PARISC] Specify level to fix binutils level promotion bug	Grant Grundler	1	-1/+3
	fixup.S needs to specify .level and use correct LDREG macro. New binutils has a bug where it doesn't "promote" from PA1.0 to PA1.1 correctly when using ",s" completer. remove use of __LP64__ in assembly.h and add some white space.

2005-10-21	[PARISC] Disable use of fpregs in pa_memcpy	Randolph Chung	1	-0/+2
	Disable use of fpregs in pa_memcpy, and turn on the -mdisable-fpregs flag. Signed-off-by: Randolph Chung <tausq@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>
2005-09-10	[PATCH] spinlock consolidation	Ingo Molnar	3	-281/+2
	This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code. It does the following things: - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code. - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti. Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code, located in lib/spinlock_debug.c. (previously we had one SMP debugging variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds) Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track write-owners. There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too. All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard spin/rwlock lockups. The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now lives in the generic headers: include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h \| 16 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h \| 16 I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files, making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is: SMP \| UP ----------------------------\|----------------------------------- asm/spinlock_types_smp.h \| linux/spinlock_types_up.h linux/spinlock_types.h \| linux/spinlock_types.h asm/spinlock_smp.h \| linux/spinlock_up.h linux/spinlock_api_smp.h \| linux/spinlock_api_up.h linux/spinlock.h \| linux/spinlock.h /* * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files: * * on SMP builds: * * asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the * initializers * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * asm/spinlock.h: contains the __raw_spin_()/etc. lowlevel implementations, mostly inline assembly code * * (also included on UP-debug builds:) * * linux/spinlock_api_smp.h: * contains the prototypes for the _spin_() APIs. * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_() APIs. * on UP builds: * * linux/spinlock_type_up.h: * contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type. * (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds) * * linux/spinlock_types.h: * defines the generic type and initializers * * linux/spinlock_up.h: * contains the __raw_spin_()/etc. version of UP builds. (which are NOPs on non-debug, non-preempt * builds) * * (included on UP-non-debug builds:) * * linux/spinlock_api_up.h: * builds the _spin_() APIs. * linux/spinlock.h: builds the final spin_() APIs. / All SMP and UP architectures are converted by this patch. arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via crosscompilers. m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should be mostly fine. From: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org> Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU). Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested). I did not try to build non-SMP kernels. That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary. I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t. Doing so avoids some ugly nesting of linux/.h and asm/.h files. Those particular locks are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code. I do NOT expect any new issues to arise with them. If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW (load and clear word).

2005-04-16	[PATCH] add Big Endian variants of ioread/iowrite	James Bottomley	1	-0/+68
	In the new io infrastructure, all of our operators are expecting the underlying device to be little endian (because the PCI bus, their main consumer, is LE). However, there are a fair few devices and busses in the world that are actually Big Endian. There's even evidence that some of these BE bus and chip types are attached to LE systems. Thus, there's a need for a BE equivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations. The attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be. When it's in, I'll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	10	-0/+2323
	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!
