| | | * | | [POWERPC] pseries: Enabling auto poweron after power is restored.Manish Ahuja2007-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During power outages, the UPS notifies the system for a shutdown. In the current setup, it isn't possible to poweron when power is restored. This patch fixes the issue by calling the right ibm,power-off-ups token during such events. It also adds a sysfs interface so userspace can specify whether or not to power on when power is restored.

* [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman2007-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [POWERPC] Use udbg_early_init() on ppc32David Gibson2007-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | udbg_early_init() is a function used on 64 bit systems, which initializes whichever early udbg backend is configured. This function is not called on 32-bit, however if btext early debug is enabled it does have an explicit, inline, #ifdef-ed assignment performing analagous initialization. This patch makes things more uniform by folding the btext initialization as an option into udbg_early_init() and calling that from the 32-bit setup path.

* [POWERPC] Open Firmware serial port driverArnd Bergmann2007-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This can be used for serial ports that are connected to an OF platform bus but are not autodetected by the lecacy serial support. It will automatically take over devices that come from the legacy serial detection, which usually is only one device. In some cases, rtas may be set up to use the serial port in the firmware, which allows easier debugging before probing the serial ports. In this case, the "used-by-rtas" property must be set by the firmware. This patch also adds code to the legacy serial driver to check for this.

| * [POWERPC] spu sched: static timeslicing for SCHED_RR contextsChristoph Hellwig2007-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For SCHED_RR tasks we can do some really trivial timeslicing. Basically we fire up a time for every scheduler tick that searches for a higher or same priority thread that is on the runqueue and if there is one context switches to it. Because we can't lock spus from timer context we actually run this from a delayed runqueue instead of a timer. A nice optimization would be to skip the actual priority bitmap search when there are less contexts than physical spus available. To implement this I need a so far unpublished patch from Andre, and it will be added after we have that patch in. Note that right now we only do the time slicing for SCHED_RR tasks. The code would work for SCHED_OTHER tasks aswell, but their prio value is defered from the one the PPU thread has at time of spu_run, and using this for spu scheduling decisions would make the code very unfair. SCHED_OTHER support will be enabled once we the spu scheduler knows how to calculcate cpu_context.prio (very soon) Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com>
