Missing symbol prefix on vmlinux.lds.h

2008-08-01T19:46:41Z

ARCH=h8300: init/main.c:781: undefined reference to `___early_initcall_end' Same problem have __start___bug_table __stop___bug_table __tracedata_start __tracedata_end __per_cpu_start __per_cpu_end When defining a symbol in vmlinux.lds, use the VMLINUX_SYMBOL macro. VMLINUX_SYMBOL adds a prefix charactor. You can't just use straight symbol names in common header files as they dont take into consideration weird arch-specific ABI conventions. in the case of Blackfin/h8300, the ABI dictates that any C-visible symbols have an underscore prefixed to them. Thus all symbols in vmlinux.lds.h need to be wrapped in VMLINUX_SYMBOL() so that each arch can put hide this magic in their own files.

Better interface for hooking early initcalls

2008-07-26T19:00:04Z

Added early initcall (pre-SMP) support, using an identical interface to that of regular initcalls. Functions called from do_pre_smp_initcalls() could be converted to use this cleaner interface. This is required by CPU hotplug, because early users have to register notifiers before going SMP. One such CPU hotplug user is the relay interface with buffer-only channels, which needs to register such a notifier, to be usable in early code. This in turn is used by kmemtrace.

vmlinux.lds: move attribute((cold)) functions back into final .text section

2008-07-25T20:12:37Z

Due to the addition of __attribute__((__cold__)) to a few symbols without adjusting the linker scripts, those symbols currently may end up outside the [_stext,_etext) range, as they get placed in .text.unlikely by (at least) gcc 4.3.0. This may confuse code not only outside of the kernel, symbol_put_addr()'s BUG() could also trigger. Hence we need to add .text.unlikely (and for future uses of __attribute__((__hot__)) also .text.hot) to the TEXT_TEXT() macro. Issue observed by Lukas Lipavsky.

firmware: allow firmware files to be built into kernel image

2008-07-10T13:30:13Z

Some drivers have their own hacks to bypass the kernel's firmware loader and build their firmware into the kernel; this renders those unnecessary. Other drivers don't use the firmware loader at all, because they always want the firmware to be available. This allows them to start using the firmware loader. A third set of drivers already use the firmware loader, but can't be used without help from userspace, which sometimes requires an initrd. This allows them to work in a static kernel.

Suspend/Resume bug in PCI layer wrt quirks

2008-06-10T17:59:46Z

Some quirks should be called with interrupt disabled, we can't directly call them in .resume_early. Also the patch introduces pci_fixup_resume_early and pci_fixup_suspend, which matches current device core callbacks (.suspend/.resume_early). TBD: Somebody knows why we need quirk resume should double check if a quirk should be called in resume or resume_early. I changed some per my understanding, but can't make sure I fixed all.
