sparc64: Fix bootup crash on sun4v.

2012-04-13T18:56:22+00:00

The DS driver registers as a subsys_initcall() but this can be too
early, in particular this risks registering before we've had a chance
to allocate and setup module_kset in kernel/params.c which is
performed also as a subsyts_initcall().

Register DS using device_initcall() insteal.

powerpc+sparc/vio: Modernize driver registration

2012-03-28T00:33:24+00:00

This makes vio_register_driver() get the module owner & name at compile
time like PCI drivers do, and adds a name pointer directly in struct
vio_driver to avoid having to explicitly initialize the embedded
struct device.

sparc: Use vsprintf extention %pf with builtin_return_address

2012-02-28T21:08:02+00:00

Emit the function name not the address when possible.

builtin_return_address() gives an address.  When building
a kernel with CONFIG_KALLSYMS, emit the actual function
name not the address.

sparc: convert old cpumask API into new one

2011-05-16T20:38:07+00:00

Adapt new API. Almost change is trivial, most important change are to
remove following like =operator.

 cpumask_t cpu_mask = *mm_cpumask(mm);
 cpus_allowed = current->cpus_allowed;

Because cpumask_var_t is =operator unsafe. These usage might prevent
kernel core improvement.

No functional change.

sparc64: Fix section mis-match errors.

2011-03-31T00:37:56+00:00

Fix all of the problems spotted by CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH under
arch/sparc during a 64-bit defconfig build.

They fall into two categorites:

1) of_device_id is marked as __initdata, and we can never do this
   since these objects sit in the device core data structures way
   past boot.  So even if a driver will never be reloaded, we have
   to keep the device ID table around.

   Mark such cases const instead.

2) The bootmem alloc/free handling code in mdesc.c was not fully
   marked __init as it should be, thus generating a reference
   to free_bootmem_late() (which is __init) from non-__init code.
