2005-06-01[PATCH] ppc64: Fix a device-tree bug on Apple'sBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Apple's Open Firmware has a funny bug when creating the /cpus nodes where it leaves a dangling '\0' character in the CPU name which ends up appearing in the full path of the node. This is bogus and confuses /proc/device-tree badly. This patch strips those bogus zero's from the node full path when reading the device-tree from Open Firmware. The "name" property is not modified and still contains the spurrious 0 (it basically contains 0 tailing 0 instead of one) but that shouldn't be a problem. An equivalent patch for ppc32 will follow shortly Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-05-31[CPUFREQ] ondemand governor automatic downscalingDave Jones
[PATCH] [4/5] ondemand governor automatic downscaling Here is a change of policy for the ondemand governor. The modification concerns the frequency downscaling. Instead of decreasing to a lower frequency when the CPU usage is under 20%, this new policy automatically scales to the optimal frequency. The optimal frequency being the lowest frequency which provides enough power to not trigger the upscaling policy.

2005-05-31[CPUFREQ] Conservative cpufreq governerDave Jones
A new cpufreq module, based on the ondemand one with my additional patches just posted. This one is more suitable for battery environments where its probably more appealing to have the cpu freq gracefully increase and decrease rather than flip between the min and max freq's. N.B. Bruno Ducrot pointed out that the amd64's "do have unacceptable latency between min and max freq transition, due to the step-by-step requirements (200MHz IIRC)"; so AMD64 users would probably benefit from this too.

2005-05-31[CPUFREQ] Recalibrate cpu_khz [1/2]Dave Jones
We have to recalibrate cpu_khz in order to use the current FID instead the max FID since some BIOS do not put the processor at maximum frequency at POST. Also, some BIOS will change the processor frequency at our back after cpu_khz was calibrate.

2005-05-31[PATCH] flush icache in correct contextRoman Zippel
flush_icache_range() is used in two different situation - in binfmt_elf.c & co for user space mappings and module.c for kernel modules. On m68k flush_icache_range() doesn't know which data to flush, as it has separate address spaces and the pointer argument can be valid in either address space. First I considered splitting flush_icache_range(), but this patch is simpler. Setting the correct context gives flush_icache_range() enough information to flush the correct data.
