* [PATCH] ppc32: platform-specific functions missing from kallsyms.David Woodhouse2005-05-051-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PPC32 kernel puts platform-specific functions into separate sections so that unneeded parts of it can be freed when we've booted and actually worked out what we're running on today. This makes kallsyms ignore those functions, because they're not between _[se]text or _[se]inittext. Rather than teaching kallsyms about the various pmac/chrp/etc sections, this patch adds '_[se]extratext' markers for kallsyms.

* [PATCH] asm/signal.h unificationAl Viro2005-05-041-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New file - asm-generic/signal.h. Contains declarations of __sighandler_t, __sigrestore_t, SIG_DFL, SIG_IGN, SIG_ERR and default definitions of SIG_BLOCK, SIG_UNBLOCK and SIG_SETMASK. asm-*/signal.h switched to including it. The only exception is asm-parisc/signal.h that wants its own declaration of __sighandler_t; that one is left as-is. asm-ppc64/signal.h required one more thing - unlike everybody else it used __sigrestorer_t instead of usual __sigrestore_t. PPC64 switched to common spelling. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] consolidate SIGEV_PAD_SIZEStephen Rothwell2005-05-011-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Discussing with Matthew Wilcox some of his outstanding patches lead me to this patch (among others). The preamble in struct sigevent can be expressed independently of the architecture. Also use __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE on ia64.

* [PATCH] add EOWNERDEAD and ENOTRECOVERABLE version 2Joe Korty2005-05-011-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add EOWNERDEAD and ENOTRECOVERABLE to all architectures. This is to support the upcoming patches for robust mutexes. We normally don't reserve parts of the name/number space for external patches, but robust mutexes are sufficiently popular and important to justify it in this case.

* [PATCH] remove all kernel BUGsMatt Mackall2005-05-011-0/+19

* [PATCH] nice and rt-prio rlimitsMatt Mackall2005-05-011-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a pair of rlimits for allowing non-root tasks to raise nice and rt priorities. Defaults to traditional behavior. Originally written by Chris Wright. The patch implements a simple rlimit ceiling for the RT (and nice) priorities a task can set. The rlimit defaults to 0, meaning no change in behavior by default. A value of 50 means RT priority levels 1-50 are allowed. A value of 100 means all 99 privilege levels from 1 to 99 are allowed. CAP_SYS_NICE is blanket permission. (akpm: see http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0503.1/1921.html for tips on integrating this with PAM).

* [PATCH] __get_unaligned() turned into macroAl Viro2005-04-241-41/+42
| | | | | | | | | | Turns __get_unaligned() and __put_unaligned into macros. That is definitely safe; leaving them as inlines breaks on e.g. alpha [try to build ncpfs there and you'll get unresolved symbols since we end up getting __get_unaligned() not inlined].

* [PATCH] freepgt: remove arch pgd_addr_endHugh Dickins2005-04-191-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | ia64 and sparc64 hurriedly had to introduce their own variants of pgd_addr_end, to leapfrog over the holes in their virtual address spaces which the final clear_page_range suddenly presented when converted from pgd_index to pgd_addr_end. But now that free_pgtables respects the vma list, those holes are never presented, and the arch variants can go.

* [PATCH] add Big Endian variants of ioread/iowriteJames Bottomley2005-04-161-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the new io infrastructure, all of our operators are expecting the underlying device to be little endian (because the PCI bus, their main consumer, is LE). However, there are a fair few devices and busses in the world that are actually Big Endian. There's even evidence that some of these BE bus and chip types are attached to LE systems. Thus, there's a need for a BE equivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations. The attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be. When it's in, I'll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-1632-0/+3416
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
