2008-05-12	[ARM] dyntick: Remove obsolete and unused ARM dyntick support	Russell King	1	-22/+0
	dyntick is superseded by the clocksource/clockevent infrastructure, using the NO_HZ configuration option. No one implements dyntick on ARM anymore, so it's pointless keeping it around. Remove dyntick support. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-10-06	Initial blind fixup for arm for irq changes	Linus Torvalds	1	-2/+2
	Untested, but this should fix up the bulk of the totally mechanical issues, and should make the actual detail fixing easier. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-09-28	[ARM] 3855/1: Add generic time support	Kevin Hilman	1	-0/+2
	This patch adds Generic time-of-day support for the ARM architecture. The support is currently added using #ifdef's so that it can support sub-arches that do not (yet) have a clocksource added. As sub-arches add clocksource support, they should 'select GENERIC_TIME' Signed-off-by: Deepak Saxena <dsaxena@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Walker <dwalker@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@mvista.com> Acked-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-07-02	[PATCH] genirq: ARM dyntick cleanup	Thomas Gleixner	1	-0/+1
	Linus: "The hacks in kernel/irq/handle.c are really horrid. REALLY horrid." They are indeed. Move the dyntick quirks to ARM where they belong. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-06-18	[ARM] 3554/1: ARM: Fix dyntick locking	Tony Lindgren	1	-0/+1
	Patch from Tony Lindgren This patch fixes some dyntick locking issues on ARM as pointed out by Russell King. Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-09-05	[ARM] Remove unused DYN_TICK_* macros	Russell King	1	-2/+0
	Neither DYN_TICK_SKIPPING nor DYN_TICK_SUITABLE are used on ARM. Remove them. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-06-27	[PATCH] ARM: Add VST idle loop call	Russell King	1	-0/+2
	This call allows the dynamic tick support to reprogram the timer immediately before the CPU idles. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-06-25	[PATCH] ARM: Generic Dynamic Tick Timer support for ARM, take 4	Russell King	1	-0/+21
	This patch adds support for Dynamic Tick Timer for ARM. Dynamic Tick is also known as VST (Variable Scheduling Timeouts). Dynamic Tick has been in use in the OMAP tree since last October. The patch is not intrusive, and does not do anything unless CONFIG_NO_IDLE_HZ is defined. This patch has the following fixed based on comments from RMK: - Time is updated before calling interrupt handlers. - Added new interrupt flag SA_TIMER to avoid duplicate timer interrupts - Moved struct dyn_tick_timer to time.h until we at some point probably have an arch independent dyn-tick.h - Cleaned up testing for DYN_TICK_ENABLED in irq.c I've cleaned up this patch to fix some remaining issues: - Call the timer tick handler with irqs disabled, as it would be from a normal interrupt - if we have a dyn_tick, we better implement all methods. - generic timer_dyn_reprogram() call, to be called before sleeping - added command line option - "dyntick=" to allow boot-time control of this feature -- rmk Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+54
	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!
