| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current pcspkr code combines the device and driver registration. This patch splits these, putting the device registration in the arch specific code. PowerPC and MIPS only have the pcspkr present sometimes.

| * | | [PATCH] powerpc: iSeries needs slb_initialize to be calledStephen Rothwell2006-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the powerpc 64k pages patch went in, systems that have SLBs (like Power4 iSeries) needed to have slb_initialize called to set up some variables for the SLB miss handler. This was not being called on the boot processor on iSeries, so on single cpu iSeries machines, we would get apparent memory curruption as soon as we entered user mode. This patch fixes that by calling slb_initialize on the boot cpu if the processor has an SLB. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

In case someone gets a sense of deja-vu, part of this was submitted last Sep, I thought the changes went in, but either got backed out, or just got lost. First, change the local_buffer declaration to be unsigned char *. We had a bad-math problem in a 2.4 tree which was built with a "-fsigned-char" parm. I dont believe we ever build with that parm now-a-days, but to be safe, I'd prefer the declaration be explicit. Second, fix a bad math calculation for splpar_strlen. Third, on the rtas_call for get-system-parameter, pass in RTAS_DATA_BUF_SIZE for the rtas_data_buf size, instead of letting random data determine the size. Until recently, we've had a sufficiently large 'random data' value get passed in, so the function just happens to have worked OK. Now it's getting passed a '0', which causes the rtas_call to return success, but no data shows up in the buffer. (oops!). This was found by the LTC test org. This is in a branch of code that only gets run on SPLPAR systems. Tested on power5 Lpar. Signed-off-by: Will Schmidt <willschm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

So it's safer to check the PGD physical address stored in the trap block (which will be updated by the tsb_context_switch() in switch_mm()) than current->active_mm. Technically we should never run here in between those two updates, because interrupts are disabled during the entire context switch operation. But some day we might like to leave interrupts enabled during the context switch and this change allows that to happen without any surprises. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Reasons: - It's more flexible. Things which would require two or three syscalls with fadvise() can be done in a single syscall. - Using fadvise() in this manner is something not covered by POSIX. The patch wires up the syscall for x86. The sycall is implemented in the new fs/sync.c. The intention is that we can move sys_fsync(), sys_fdatasync() and perhaps sys_sync() into there later. Documentation for the syscall is in fs/sync.c. A test app (sync_file_range.c) is in http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/ext3-tools.tar.gz. The available-to-GPL-modules do_sync_file_range() is for knfsd: "A COMMIT can say NFS_DATA_SYNC or NFS_FILE_SYNC. I can skip the ->fsync call for NFS_DATA_SYNC which is hopefully the more common." Note: the `async' writeout mode SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE will turn synchronous if the queue is congested. This is trivial to fix: add a new flag bit, set wbc->nonblocking. But I'm not sure that we want to expose implementation details down to that level. Note: it's notable that we can sync an fd which wasn't opened for writing. Same with fsync() and fdatasync()). Note: the code takes some care to handle attempts to sync file contents outside the 16TB offset on 32-bit machines. It makes such attempts appear to succeed, for best 32-bit/64-bit compatibility. Perhaps it should make such requests fail...

* | | | | | [PATCH] Don't pass boot parameters to argv_init[]OGAWA Hirofumi2006-03-31

And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup(). start_kernel() -> parse_args() -> unknown_bootoption() -> obsolete_checksetup() If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was handled. If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other ->setup_func(). If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0, a parameter is seted to argv_init[]. Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app. If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit. This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

* | | | | | [PATCH] Mark unwind info for signal trampolines in vDSOsJakub Jelinek2006-03-31

GCC 4.2 (or patched earlier GCC) will be able to special case unwinding through frames right above signal trampolines. As the augmentations start with z flag and S is at the very end of the augmentation string, older GCCs will just skip the S flag as unknown (that's why an augmentation flag was chosen over say a new CFA opcode).

We've had mistakes in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been iterating across only online or present CPUs. This is inefficient and possibly buggy. We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the future. This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu.

Additionally, i386 and x86_64 support different ranges for user_desc->entry_number, and we must account for that; we couldn't pass ourselves -1 because we need to override previously existing TLS descriptors which glibc has possibly set, so test at startup the range to use. x86 and x86_64 existing ranges are hardcoded.
