litmus2008.git/arch/ppc/syslib/prom.c, branch master [ARCHIVE] Old LITMUS^RT 2008 version (for reference). ppc: Remove CHRP, POWER3 and POWER4 support from arch/ppc 2006-03-27T23:22:10+00:00 Paul Mackerras paulus@samba.org 2006-03-27T23:22:10+00:00 0a26b1364f14852bc9a51db0ca63c5250c775627 32-bit CHRP machines are now supported only in arch/powerpc, as are all 64-bit PowerPC processors. This means that we don't use Open Firmware on any platform in arch/ppc any more. This makes PReP support a single-platform option like every other platform support option in arch/ppc now, thus CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM is gone from arch/ppc. CONFIG_PPC_PREP is the option that selects PReP support and is generally what has replaced CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM within arch/ppc. _machine is all but dead now, being #defined to 0. Updated Makefiles, comments and Kconfig options generally to reflect these changes. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

[PATCH] ppc: Remove powermac support from ARCH=ppc 2006-01-15T06:30:44+00:00 Paul Mackerras paulus@samba.org 2006-01-15T06:30:44+00:00 a7fdd90bc43e3e9cb08bc1b13650024d419b89e5 This makes it possible to build kernels for PReP and/or CHRP with ARCH=ppc by removing the (non-building) powermac support. It's now also possible to select PReP and CHRP independently. Powermac users should now build with ARCH=powerpc instead of ARCH=ppc. (This does mean that it is no longer possible to build a 32-bit kernel for a G5.) Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

[PATCH] changing CONFIG_LOCALVERSION rebuilds too much, for no good reason 2005-11-09T15:55:57+00:00 Olaf Hering olh@suse.de 2005-11-09T05:34:55+00:00 733482e445ca4450cf41381b1c95e2b8c7145114 This patch removes almost all inclusions of linux/version.h. The 3 #defines are unused in most of the touched files. A few drivers use the simple KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) macro, which is unfortunatly in linux/version.h. There are also lots of #ifdef for long obsolete kernels, this was not touched. In a few places, the linux/version.h include was move to where the LINUX_VERSION_CODE was used. quilt vi `find * -type f -name "*.[ch]"|xargs grep -El '(UTS_RELEASE|LINUX_VERSION_CODE|KERNEL_VERSION|linux/version.h)'|grep -Ev '(/(boot|coda|drm)/|~$)'` search pattern: /UTS_RELEASE\|LINUX_VERSION_CODE\|KERNEL_VERSION\|linux\/\(utsname\|version\).h Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

It also adds some dynamic mecanism to /proc/device-tree so that new properties are visible to userland.

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!
