[ARM] 3364/1: [cleanup] warning fix - definitions for enable_hlt and disable_hlt

2006-03-15T23:17:26Z

Patch from Ben Dooks The enable_hlt and disable_hlt should be declared in include/asm/setup.h. This fixes sparse errors from arch/arm/kernel/process.c Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks Signed-off-by: Russell King

[ARM] iwmmxt thread state alignment

2006-03-12T22:36:06Z

This patch removes the reliance of iwmmxt on hand coded alignments. Since thread_info is always 8K aligned, specifying that fpstate is 8-byte aligned achieves the same effect without needing to resort to hand coded alignments. Signed-off-by: Russell King

[ARM] 3352/1: DSB required for the completion of a TLB maintenance operation

2006-03-07T14:42:27Z

Patch from Catalin Marinas Chapter B2.7.3 in the latest ARM ARM (with v6 information) states that the completion of a TLB maintenance operation is only guaranteed by the execution of a DSB (Data Syncronization Barrier, formerly Data Write Barrier or Drain Write Buffer). Note that a DSB is only needed in the flush_tlb_kernel_* functions since the completion is guaranteed by a mode change (i.e. switching back to user mode) for the flush_tlb_user_* functions.

[ARM] 3325/2: GPIO function to control multi-drive (open collector) capability

2006-02-22T21:23:35Z

Patch from Andrew Victor This patch adds the at91_set_multi_drive() function to enable/disable the multi-drive (open collector) pin capability on the AT91RM9200 processor. This is necessary to fix the UDC (USB Gadget) driver for the AT91RM9200 board as it will not allow the board reset line to be pulled low if the pullup is not driven as an open collector output as the boards are wired to the USB connector on both the DK/EK. This version of the patch updates it to 2.6.16-rc4. Orignal patch by Jeff Warren. Signed-off-by: Andrew Victor Signed-off-by: Russell King

[ARM] 3343/1: NAS100d: Fix incorrect I2C pin assignment

2006-02-22T21:12:06Z

Patch from Alessandro Zummo The I2C pin assignment for the Iomega NAS100d board was incorrect. This patch fixes it. The correct assignment has now been tested using the new RTC class and a new driver for the RTC on the NAS100d. Signed-off-by: Rod Whitby Signed-off-by: Alessandro Zummo Signed-off-by: Russell King

[ARM] 3339/1: ARM EABI: make unmuxed syscalls visible

2006-02-16T22:36:15Z

Patch from Nicolas Pitre With EABI the multiplex sys_ipc and sys_socketcall syscalls are unavailable and their support code even removed from the compiled kernel, and the new unmuxed syscalls must be used instead. Make those syscall numbers visible. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Russell King

[ARM] Fix SMP initialisation oops

2006-02-16T11:08:09Z

A change to the SMP initialisation caused the following oops: CPU1: Booted secondary processor CPU1: D VIPT write-back cache CPU1: I cache: 32768 bytes, associativity 4, 32 byte lines, 256 sets CPU1: D cache: 32768 bytes, associativity 4, 32 byte lines, 256 sets <7>Calibrating delay loop... 83.14 BogoMIPS (lpj=415744) <1>Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000001c ... PC is at enqueue_task+0x1c/0x64 LR is at activate_task+0xcc/0xe4 SMP initialisation now requires cpu_possible_map to be initialised in setup_arch(). Move this from smp_prepare_cpus() to smp_init_cpus() and call it from our setup_arch() if CONFIG_SMP is enabled. Signed-off-by: Russell King

[PATCH] add asm-generic/mman.h

2006-02-15T23:32:22Z

Make new MADV_REMOVE, MADV_DONTFORK, MADV_DOFORK consistent across all arches. The idea is to make it possible to use them portably even before distros include them in libc headers.

[PATCH] madvise MADV_DONTFORK/MADV_DOFORK

2006-02-15T00:09:34Z

Currently, copy-on-write may change the physical address of a page even if the user requested that the page is pinned in memory (either by mlock or by get_user_pages). This happens if the process forks meanwhile, and the parent writes to that page. As a result, the page is orphaned: in case of get_user_pages, the application will never see any data hardware DMA's into this page after the COW. In case of mlock'd memory, the parent is not getting the realtime/security benefits of mlock. In particular, this affects the Infiniband modules which do DMA from and into user pages all the time. This patch adds madvise options to control whether memory range is inherited across fork. Useful e.g. for when hardware is doing DMA from/into these pages. Could also be useful to an application wanting to speed up its forks by cutting large areas out of consideration. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
