ipc: use Kconfig options for __ARCH_WANT_[COMPAT_]IPC_PARSE_VERSION

2012-07-31T00:25:21+00:00

Rather than #define the options manually in the architecture code, add
Kconfig options for them and select them there instead.  This also allows
us to select the compat IPC version parsing automatically for platforms
using the old compat IPC interface.

alpha: remove mysterious if zero-ed out includes

2012-07-31T00:25:11+00:00

There's a small group of odd looking includes in smc37c669.c.  These
includes appear to be if zero-ed out ever since they were added to the
tree (in v2.1.89).  Their purpose is unclear to me.  Perhaps they were
used in someones build system.  Whatever their purpose was, nothing else
uses something comparable.  This entire if zero-ed out block might as well
be removed.

alpha/PCI: factor out pcibios_setup()

2012-06-26T12:54:28+00:00

The PCI core provides a generic pcibios_setup() routine.  Drop this
architecture-specific version in favor of that.

PCI: replace struct pci_bus secondary/subordinate with busn_res

2012-06-13T21:42:22+00:00

Replace the struct pci_bus secondary/subordinate members with the
struct resource busn_res.  Later we'll build a resource tree of these
bus numbers.

alpha/PCI: move fixup hooks from init to devinit

2012-06-12T15:10:54+00:00

The fixups are executed once the pci-device is found which is during
boot process so __init seems fine as long as the platform does not
support hotplug.

However it is possible to remove the PCI bus at run time and have it
rediscovered again via "echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan" and this will call
the fixups again.

Pull vfs changes from Al Viro.
 "A lot of misc stuff.  The obvious groups:
   * Miklos' atomic_open series; kills the damn abuse of
     ->d_revalidate() by NFS, which was the major stumbling block for
     all work in that area.
   * ripping security_file_mmap() and dealing with deadlocks in the
     area; sanitizing the neighborhood of vm_mmap()/vm_munmap() in
     general.
   * ->encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in
     mm/cleancache.c gone.
   * assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user)
   * parts of Artem's ->s_dirty work (jff2 and reiserfs parts)
   * ->update_time() work from Josef.
   * other bits and pieces all over the place.

  Normally it would've been in two or three pull requests, but
  signal.git stuff had eaten a lot of time during this cycle ;-/"

Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt (the
'truncate_range' inode method was removed by the VM changes, the VFS
update adds an 'update_time()' method), and in fs/btrfs/ulist.[ch] (due
to sparse fix added twice, with other changes nearby).

new helper: signal_delivered()

2012-06-01T16:58:52+00:00

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler();  called when
sigframe has been successfully built.  All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).

I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).
