2006-12-12	sh: Split out atomic ops logically.	Paul Mundt	1	-151/+2
	We have a few different ways to do the atomic operations, so split them out in to different headers rather than bloating atomic.h. Kernelspace gUSA will take this up to a third implementation. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2006-12-06	sh: Fixup movli.l/movco.l atomic ops for gcc4.	Paul Mundt	1	-24/+24
	gcc4 gets a bit pissy about the outputs: include/asm/atomic.h: In function 'atomic_add': include/asm/atomic.h:37: error: invalid lvalue in asm statement include/asm/atomic.h:30: error: invalid lvalue in asm output 1 ... this ended up being a thinko anyways, so just fix it up. Verified for proper behaviour with the older toolchains, too. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2006-09-27	sh: New atomic ops for SH-4A movli.l/movco.l	Paul Mundt	1	-9/+96
	SH-4A implements LL/SC instructions, so we implement a simple set of atomic operations using these. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2006-09-27	sh: Various cosmetic cleanups.	Paul Mundt	1	-0/+1
	We had quite a bit of whitespace damage, clean most of it up.. Signed-off-by: Stuart Menefy <stuart.menefy@st.com> Signed-off-by: Arthur Othieno <a.othieno@bluewin.ch> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2006-01-09	[PATCH] mutex subsystem, add atomic_xchg() to all arches	Ingo Molnar	1	-0/+2
	add atomic_xchg() to all the architectures. Needed by the new mutex code. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org>
2006-01-06	[PATCH] atomic_long_t & include/asm-generic/atomic.h V2	Christoph Lameter	1	-0/+1
	Several counters already have the need to use 64 atomic variables on 64 bit platforms (see mm_counter_t in sched.h). We have to do ugly ifdefs to fall back to 32 bit atomic on 32 bit platforms. The VM statistics patch that I am working on will also make more extensive use of atomic64. This patch introduces a new type atomic_long_t by providing definitions in asm-generic/atomic.h that works similar to the c "long" type. Its 32 bits on 32 bit platforms and 64 bits on 64 bit platforms. Also cleans up the determination of the mm_counter_t in sched.h.

2005-11-13	[PATCH] atomic: inc_not_zero	Nick Piggin	1	-0/+15
	Introduce an atomic_inc_not_zero operation. Make this a special case of atomic_add_unless because lockless pagecache actually wants atomic_inc_not_negativeone due to its offset refcount.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+114
	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!
