parisc: Provide dummy dma_mmap_coherent() and dma_get_sgtable()

2013-01-29T07:27:41+00:00

parisc/allmodconfig:

drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c: In function ‘vb2_dc_mmap’:
drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c:204: error: implicit declaration of function ‘dma_mmap_coherent’
drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c: In function ‘vb2_dc_get_base_sgt’:
drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c:387: error: implicit declaration of function ‘dma_get_sgtable’

For architectures using dma_map_ops, dma_mmap_coherent() and
dma_get_sgtable() are provided in .

Parisc does not use dma_map_ops, hence it should implement them itself.
For now, use dummy implementations that just return -EINVAL, until the
API has been finalized, as it cannot be supported on PA-RISC as-is.

parisc: improve ptrace support for gdb single-step

2013-01-07T22:06:27+00:00

Various GCC tests use gdb to simulate a multithreaded application. Many of
these tests have been failing on parisc linux.

GCC does this by using gdb to single-step the application, then gdb is used to
call other test specific code. Where this fails is when the application is
stepped into the delay slot of a taken branch. This sets the PSW B bit. When
the test specific code is executed, this usually clears the PSW B bit.
Currently, gdb is not allowed to set the B bit. So, the code falls through what
should be a taken branch.

The attached patch adds the PSW B bit to the set of bits that gdb is allowed to
set. In order to set the B bit, the trace system call must return using an
interrupt restore. The patch also modifies this code to use the saved IAOQ
values when they are saved by a ptrace syscall or interruption.

parisc: don't claim cpu irqs more than once

2013-01-07T22:06:23+00:00

The CPU irqs (timer and IPI) are not shared and only need to be claimed once.
A mismatch error occurs if they are claimed more than once.

parisc: avoid undefined shift in cnv_float.h

2013-01-07T22:06:22+00:00

The attached change fixes a float conversion problem found running the
GCC testsuite with GCC configured with --with-arch=2.0.

The actual problem occurs for an exponent value of 63. This is the
maximum exponent value that can be passed. This causes a left shift by
32 in the else hunk of the macro. This causes undefined behavior and the
wrong value is returned for dresultB. The fix is the check "exponent <=
62". If the exponent is 63, dresultB is set to 0. The patch also
optimizes the operation a bit by copying "Sall(sgl_value) <<
SGL_EXP_LENGTH" to val, so that sgl_value is not modified.

ARCH: drivers remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:13+00:00

This fixes up all of the smaller arches that had __dev* markings for
their platform-specific drivers.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal

2012-12-21T02:05:28+00:00

Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
 "sigaltstack infrastructure + conversion for x86, alpha and um,
  COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE infrastructure.

  Note that there are several conflicts between "unify
  SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions" and UAPI patches in mainline;
  resolution is trivial - just remove definitions of SS_ONSTACK and
  SS_DISABLED from arch/*/uapi/asm/signal.h; they are all identical and
  include/uapi/linux/signal.h contains the unified variant."

Fixed up conflicts as per Al.

Bury the conditionals from kernel_thread/kernel_execve series

2012-12-19T23:07:38+00:00

All architectures have
	CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_THREAD
	CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE
	__ARCH_WANT_SYS_EXECVE
None of them have __ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE and there are only two callers
of kernel_execve() (which is a trivial wrapper for do_execve() now) left.
Kill the conditionals and make both callers use do_execve().
