linux-stable.git/include/asm-powerpc, branch linux-2.6.14.y Linux kernel stable tree [PATCH] ppc32: Fix timekeeping 2005-10-12T15:24:47+00:00 Benjamin Herrenschmidt benh@kernel.crashing.org 2005-10-12T01:39:33+00:00 cbd27b8ced4b1888c93f69b4dd108a69ac4d733f Interestingly enough, ppc32 had broken timekeeping for ages... It worked, but probably drifted a bit more than could be explained by the actual bad precision of the timebase calibration. We discovered that recently when somebody figured out that the common code was using CLOCK_TICK_RATE to correct the timekeeing, and ppc32 had a completely bogus value for it. This patch turns it into something saner. Probably not as good as doing something based on the actual timebase frequency precision but I'll leave that sort of math to others. This at least makes it better for the common HZ values. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

[PATCH] ppc64: Add definitions for new PTRACE calls 2005-09-12T07:19:12+00:00 Anton Blanchard anton@samba.org 2005-09-10T06:01:10+00:00 a94d308513bdb2b926b45c11d7ce7fac6d6ca865 - Add PTRACE_GET_DEBUGREG/PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG. The definition is as follows: /* * Get or set a debug register. The first 16 are DABR registers and the * second 16 are IABR registers. */ #define PTRACE_GET_DEBUGREG 25 #define PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG 26 DABR == data breakpoint and IABR = instruction breakpoint in IBM speak. We could split out the IABR into 2 more ptrace calls but I figured there was no need and 16 DABR registers should be more than enough (POWER4/POWER5 have one). - Add 2 new SIGTRAP si_codes: TRAP_HWBKPT and TRAP_BRANCH. I couldnt find any standards on either of these so I copied what ia64 is doing. Again this might be better placed in include/asm-generic/siginfo.h Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> 
- Add PTRACE_GET_DEBUGREG/PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG. The definition is
  as follows:

/*
 * Get or set a debug register. The first 16 are DABR registers and the
 * second 16 are IABR registers.

#define PTRACE_GET_DEBUGREG    25
#define PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG    26

  DABR == data breakpoint and IABR = instruction breakpoint in IBM
  speak. We could split out the IABR into 2 more ptrace calls but I
  figured there was no need and 16 DABR registers should be more
  than enough (POWER4/POWER5 have one).
