resource: add window support

2010-03-15T00:08:36+00:00

Add support for resource windows. This is for bridge resources, i.e., regions where a bridge forwards transactions from the primary to the secondary side. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas Signed-off-by: Len Brown

resource: add bus number support

2010-03-15T00:08:35+00:00

Add support for bus number resources. This is for bridges with a range of bus numbers behind them. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas Signed-off-by: Len Brown

inflate_fast: sout is already a short so ptr arith was off by one.

2010-03-12T23:52:44+00:00

inflate_fast() can do either POST INC or PRE INC on its pointers walking the memory to decompress. Default is PRE INC. The sout pointer offset was miscalculated in one case as the calculation assumed sout was a char * This breaks inflate_fast() iff configured to do POST INC.

zlib: make new optimized inflate endian independent

2010-03-12T23:52:44+00:00

Commit 6846ee5ca68d81e6baccf0d56221d7a00c1be18b ("zlib: Fix build of powerpc boot wrapper") made the new optimized inflate only available on arch's that define CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS. This patch will again enable the optimization for all arch's by defining our own endian independent version of unaligned access. As an added bonus, arch's that define CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS do a plain load instead.

Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type

2010-03-08T01:04:49+00:00

Constify struct sysfs_ops. This is part of the ops structure constification effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al. Benefits of this constification: * prevents modification of data that is shared (referenced) by many other structure instances at runtime * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional) modification attempts on archs that enforce read-only kernel data at runtime * potentially better optimized code as the compiler can assume that the const data cannot be changed * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata and therefore exclude them from false sharing Signed-off-by: Emese Revfy Acked-by: David Teigland Acked-by: Matt Domsch Acked-by: Maciej Sosnowski Acked-by: Hans J.
