Add cmpxchg64 and cmpxchg64_local to powerpc

2008-02-07T16:42:30+00:00

Make sure that at least cmpxchg64_local is available on all architectures to use
for unsigned long long values.

[POWERPC] Fix compilation for CONFIG_DEBUGGER=n and CONFIG_KEXEC=y

2008-02-07T00:40:18+00:00

Looks like "[POWERPC] kdump shutdown hook support" broke builds when
CONFIG_DEBUGGER=n and CONFIG_KEXEC=y, such as in g5_defconfig:

arch/powerpc/kernel/crash.c: In function 'default_machine_crash_shutdown':
arch/powerpc/kernel/crash.c:388: error: '__debugger_fault_handler' undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/powerpc/kernel/crash.c:388: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
arch/powerpc/kernel/crash.c:388: error: for each function it appears in.)

Move the debugger hooks to under CONFIG_DEBUGGER || CONFIG_KEXEC, since
that's when the crash code is enabled.

(I should have caught this with my build-script pre-merge, my bad. :( )

increase AT_VECTOR_SIZE to terminate saved_auxv properly

2007-10-17T15:43:00+00:00

include/asm-powerpc/elf.h has 6 entries in ARCH_DLINFO.  fs/binfmt_elf.c
has 14 unconditional NEW_AUX_ENT entries and 2 conditional NEW_AUX_ENT
entries.  So in the worst case, saved_auxv does not get an AT_NULL entry at
the end.

The saved_auxv array must be terminated with an AT_NULL entry.  Make the
size of mm_struct->saved_auxv arch dependend, based on the number of
ARCH_DLINFO entries.

[POWERPC] Limit range of __init_ref_ok somewhat

2007-10-03T01:48:44+00:00

This patch introduces zalloc_maybe_bootmem and uses it so that we don't
have to mark a whole (largish) routine as __init_ref_ok.

[POWERPC] Fix section mismatch in PCI code

2007-09-19T05:25:34+00:00

Create a helper function (alloc_maybe_bootmem) that is marked __init_refok
to limit the chances of mistakenly referring to other __init routines.

[POWERPC] Make the debugfs "powerpc" dir globally accessible

2007-07-10T11:53:50+00:00

The prom.c debugging code creates a "powerpc" directory in debugfs,
which is nice, but doesn't allow any other debugging code to stick things
under "powerpc" in debugfs. So make it global.

While we're there we should make the prom.c debugging code depend on
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS, because it doesn't work otherwise.

[POWERPC] Move inline asm eieio to using eieio inline function

2007-07-10T05:33:14+00:00

Use the eieio function so we can redefine what eieio does rather
than direct inline asm.  This is part code clean up and partially
because not all PPCs have eieio (book-e has mbar that maps to eieio).
