[SPARC64]: Fix of_iounmap() region release.

2006-12-31T22:06:05+00:00

We need to pass in the resource otherwise we cannot
release the region properly.  We must know whether it is
an I/O or MEM resource.

[SPARC64]: Minor irq handling cleanups.

2006-12-17T22:06:56+00:00

Use struct irq_chip instead of hw_interrupt_type.

Delete hw_resend_irq(), totally unused.

[PATCH] Optimize D-cache alias handling on fork

2006-12-13T17:27:08+00:00

Virtually index, physically tagged cache architectures can get away
without cache flushing when forking.  This patch adds a new cache
flushing function flush_cache_dup_mm(struct mm_struct *) which for the
moment I've implemented to do the same thing on all architectures
except on MIPS where it's a no-op.

[SPARC64]: Fix several kprobes bugs.

2006-12-10T10:42:03+00:00

- relbranch_fixup(), for non-branches, would end up setting
  regs->tnpc incorrectly, in fact it would set it equal to
  regs->tpc which would cause that instruction to execute twice

  Also, if this is not a PC-relative branch, we should just
  leave regs->tnpc as-is.  This covers cases like 'jmpl' which
  branch to absolute values.

- To be absolutely %100 safe, we need to flush the instruction
  cache for all assignments to kprobe->ainsn.insn[], including
  cases like add_aggr_kprobe()

- prev_kprobe's status field needs to be 'unsigned long' to match
  the type of the value it is saving

- jprobes were totally broken:
  = jprobe_return() can run in the stack frame of the jprobe handler,
    or in an even deeper stack frame, thus we'll be in the wrong
    register window than the one from the original probe state.

    So unwind using 'restore' instructions, if necessary, right
    before we do the jprobe_return() breakpoint trap.

  = There is no reason to save/restore the register window saved
    at %sp at jprobe trigger time.  Those registers cannot be
    modified by the jprobe handler.  Also, this code was saving
    and restoring "sizeof (struct sparc_stackf)" bytes.  Depending
    upon the caller, this could clobber unrelated stack frame
    pieces if there is only a basic 128-byte register window
    stored on the stack, without the argument save area.

    So just saving and restoring struct pt_regs is sufficient.

  = Kill the "jprobe_saved_esp", totally unused.

    Also, delete "jprobe_saved_regs_location", with the stack frame
    unwind now done explicitly by jprobe_return(), this check is
    superfluous.

[PATCH] tty: preparatory structures for termios revamp

2006-12-08T16:28:56+00:00

In order to sort out our struct termios and add proper speed control we need
to separate the kernel and user termios structures.  Glibc is fine but the
other libraries rely on the kernel exported struct termios and we need to
extend this without breaking the ABI/API

To do so we add a struct ktermios which is the kernel view of a termios
structure and overlaps the struct termios with extra fields on the end for
now.  (That limitation will go away in later patches).  Some platforms (eg
alpha) planned ahead and thus use the same struct for both, others did not.

This just adds the structures but does not use them, it seems a sensible
splitting point for bisect if there are compile failures (not that I expect
them)

[PATCH] Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync()

2006-12-07T16:39:41+00:00

Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync()

dma_cache_sync() is ill-designed in that it does not have a struct device
pointer argument which makes proper support for systems that consist of a
mix of coherent and non-coherent DMA devices hard.  Change dma_cache_sync
to take a struct device pointer as first argument and fix all its callers
to pass it.

dma_is_consistent() is ill-designed in that it does not have a struct

dma_is_consistent to take a struct device pointer as first argument and fix
the sole caller to pass it.
