Removed rheap in arch/ppc/lib and changed build system to use the
one in arch/powerpc/lib.
Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
|

The rheap allocation functions return a pointer, but the actual value is based
on how the heap was initialized, and so it can be anything, e.g. an offset
into a buffer. A ulong is a better representation of the value returned by
the allocation functions.
This patch changes all of the relevant rheap functions to use a unsigned long
integers instead of a pointer. In case of an error, the value returned is
a negative error code that has been cast to an unsigned long. The caller can
use the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro to check for this.
All code which calls the rheap functions is updated accordingly. Macros
IS_MURAM_ERR() and IS_DPERR(), have been deleted in favor of IS_ERR_VALUE().
Also added error checking to rh_attach_region().

This finally renames the thread_info field in task structure to stack, so that
the assumptions about this field are gone and archs have more freedom about
placing the thread_info structure.
Nonbroken archs which have a proper thread pointer can do the access to both
current thread and task structure via a single pointer.
It'll allow for a few more cleanups of the fork code, from which e.g. ia64
could benefit.

I noticed that many source files include <linux/pci.h> while they do
not appear to need it. Here is an attempt to clean it all up.
In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all
files including <linux/pci.h> but without any other occurence of "pci"
or "PCI". I removed the include statement from all of these, then I
compiled an allmodconfig kernel on both i386 and x86_64 and fixed the
false positives manually.
My tests covered 66% of the affected files, so there could be false
positives remaining. Untested files are:

Let's allow page-alignment in general for per-cpu data (wanted by Xen, and

Because larger alignments can use more room, we increase the max per-cpu

Recently, someone fixed a syntax error in the HTDMSOUND driver
introduced 4 years ago.
Unfortunately not by trying to compile this driver for his hardware but
by code inspection - which seems to be a strong indication that there
are no users left for this OSS sound driver.
This patch therefore removes it.

Currently virtex support in mainline make use of the infrastructure in
arch/ppc/syslib/ppc_sys.c for registering common devices on virtex ppc405
platforms. The ppc_sys.c code is not well suited to the dynamic nature of
FPGA designs and makes adding new board ports more complex. This patch
adds a new listing of common devices which does not depend on the ppc_sys.c
infrastructure.

Lifted from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8182
Steps to reproduce:
- Boot an Ocotea board with the mainline 2.6.20.1 kernel.
- Create an /etc/ntp.conf file with at least one NTP server and iburst mode set.
- Issue the command "ntpd -g".
- Wait about two minutes.
- Verify ntpd's status via "ntpq -pn" and by looking in /var/log/ntp.
This fixes this problem by adjusting the expected clock frequency.

We were using the platform_device.id field to identify which ethernet
port is used for mv643xx_eth device. This is not generally correct.
It will be incorrect, for example, if a hardware platform uses a single
port but not the first port. Here, we add an explicit port_number field
to struct mv643xx_eth_platform_data.
This makes the mv643xx_eth_platform_data structure required, but that

The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.
I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.
So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

As Andi pointed out: CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA only disables the ISA DMA
channel management. Other functionality may still expect GFP_DMA to
provide memory below 16M. So we need to make sure that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is
set independent of CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA. Undo the modifications to
mm/Kconfig where we made ZONE_DMA dependent on GENERIC_ISA_DMA and set
theses explicitly in each arches Kconfig.
Reviews must occur for each arch in order to determine if ZONE_DMA can be
switched off. It can only be switched off if we know that all devices
supported by a platform are capable of performing DMA transfers to all of
memory (Some arches already support this: uml, avr32, sh sh64, parisc and
IA64/Altix).
In order to switch ZONE_DMA off conditionally, one would have to establish
a scheme by which one can assure that no drivers are enabled that are only
capable of doing I/O to a part of memory, or one needs to provide an
alternate means of performing an allocation from a specific range of memory
(like provided by alloc_pages_range()) and insure that all drivers use that
call. In that case the arches alloc_dma_coherent() may need to be modified
to call alloc_pages_range() instead of relying on GFP_DMA.

We get the following compiler error:
CC arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.o
arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:275: error: '__mtdcr' undeclared here (not in a function)
arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:275: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of '__mtdcr'
arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:276: error: '__mfdcr' undeclared here (not in a function)
arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c:276: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of '__mfdcr'
make[1]: *** [arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.o] Error 1
This is due to the EXPORT_SYMBOL for __mtdcr/__mfdcr not having the proper CONFIG protection

When building an 85xx kernel we get:
CC arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.o
arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c: In function 'io_block_mapping':
arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c:330: error: expected identifier before '(' token
arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c:330: error: expected statement before ')' token
The is_power_of_2(x) fixup patch left an extra ')' on the is_power_of_4 macro.
There is a similiar issue on the arch/ppc side.
