[PATCH] Xtensa: Add ktermios and minor filename fix

2006-12-13T17:05:50+00:00

The kernel termios (ktermios) changes were somehow missed for Xtensa.  This
patch adds the ktermios structure and also includes some minor file name
fix that was missed in the syscall patch.

[PATCH] xtensa: fix system call interface

2006-12-10T17:55:39+00:00

This is a long outstanding patch to finally fix the syscall interface.  The
constants used for the system calls are those we have provided in our libc
patches.  This patch also fixes the shmbuf and stat structure, and fcntl
definitions.

[PATCH] xtensa: remove extra header files

2006-12-10T17:55:39+00:00

The Xtensa port contained many header files that were never needed.  This
rather lengthy patch removes all those files.  Unfortunately, there were
many dependencies that needed to be updated, so this patch touches quite a
few source files.

[PATCH] xtensa: fix irq and misc fixes

2006-12-10T17:55:39+00:00

Update the architecture specific interrupt handling code for Xtensa to support
the new API.  Use generic BUG macros in bug.h, and some minor fixes.

[PATCH] vmlinux.lds: consolidate initcall sections

2006-10-27T22:34:51+00:00

Add a vmlinux.lds.h helper macro for defining the eight-level initcall table,
teach all the architectures to use it.

This is a prerequisite for a patch which performs initcall synchronisation for
multithreaded-probing.

[PATCH] provide kernel_execve on all architectures

2006-10-02T14:57:23+00:00

This adds the new kernel_execve function on all architectures that were using
_syscall3() to implement execve.

The implementation uses code from the _syscall3 macros provided in the
unistd.h header file.  I don't have cross-compilers for any of these
architectures, so the patch is untested with the exception of i386.

Most architectures can probably implement this in a nicer way in assembly or
by combining it with the sys_execve implementation itself, but this should do
it for now.

[PATCH] namespaces: utsname: switch to using uts namespaces

2006-10-02T14:57:21+00:00

Replace references to system_utsname to the per-process uts namespace
where appropriate.  This includes things like uname.

Changes: Per Eric Biederman's comments, use the per-process uts namespace
	for ELF_PLATFORM, sunrpc, and parts of net/ipv4/ipconfig.c

[PATCH] kill wall_jiffies

2006-10-01T07:39:27+00:00

With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies.
So we can kill wall_jiffies completely.

This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior
except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a
condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1".  This condition is never met so I
suppose it is just a bug.  I just remove that condition only instead of
kill the whole "if" block.

[PATCH] simplify update_times (avoid jiffies/jiffies_64 aliasing problem)

2006-09-29T16:18:15+00:00

Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390
timer interrupt handler with this change.

Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but
callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update.  Passing ticks
get rid of this redundant calculation.  Also there are another redundancy
pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky.

This cleanup make a barrier added by
5aee405c662ca644980c184774277fc6d0769a84 needless.  So this patch removes
it.

As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now
wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies.  (This patch does not really
remove wall_jiffies.  It would be another cleanup patch)
