2013-05-28powerpc: uaccess s/might_sleep/might_fault/Michael S. Tsirkin
The only reason uaccess routines might sleep is if they fault. Make this explicit. Arnd Bergmann suggested that the following code if (!is_kernel_addr((unsigned long)__pu_addr)) might_fault(); can be further simplified by adding a version of might_fault that includes the kernel addr check. Will be considered as a further optimization in future. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2012-05-27powerpc: Use the new generic strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user()Paul Mackerras
This is much the same as for SPARC except that we can do the find_zero() function more efficiently using the count-leading-zeroes instructions. Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC.

2008-08-04powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asmStephen Rothwell
from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
