[PATCH] powerpc: Move various ppc64 files with no ppc32 equivalent to powerpc

2005-11-10T00:24:04+00:00

This patch moves a bunch of files from arch/ppc64 and include/asm-ppc64 which have no equivalents in ppc32 code into arch/powerpc and include/asm-powerpc. The file affected are: abs_addr.h compat.h lppaca.h paca.h tce.h cpu_setup_power4.S ioctl32.c firmware.c pacaData.c The only changes apart from the move and corresponding Makefile changes are: - #ifndef/#define in includes updated to _ASM_POWERPC_ form - trailing whitespace removed - comments giving full paths removed - pacaData.c renamed paca.c to remove studlyCaps - Misplaced { moved in lppaca.h Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc64), built for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=powerpc).

[PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pages

2005-11-07T00:56:47+00:00

Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel base page size to 64K. The resulting kernel still boots on any hardware. On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently. Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the information from the newer hypervisors.

[PATCH] ppc64: Simplify counting of lpevents, remove lpevent_count from paca

2005-06-30T05:16:09+00:00

Currently there's a per-cpu count of lpevents processed, a per-queue (ie. global) total count, and a count by event type. Replace all that with a count by event for each cpu. We only need to add it up int the proc code. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Acked-by: Stephen Rothwell Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

[PATCH] ppc64: Remove lpqueue pointer from the paca on iSeries

2005-06-30T05:07:09+00:00

The iSeries code keeps a pointer to the ItLpQueue in its paca struct. But all these pointers end up pointing to the one place, ie. xItLpQueue. So remove the pointer from the paca struct and just refer to xItLpQueue directly where needed. The only complication is that the spread_lpevents logic was implemented by having a NULL lpqueue pointer in the paca on CPUs that weren't supposed to process events. Instead we just compare the spread_lpevents value to the processor id to get the same behaviour. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Acked-by: Stephen Rothwell Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

[PATCH] ppc64 iSeries: tidy up some includes and HvCall.h

2005-06-22T01:46:28+00:00

This patch removes some unused bits from HvCall.h and some unneeded #includes from other files. Also includes ItLpQueue.h in paca.h in preference to a stub declaration of struct ItLpQueue. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

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!
