2006-01-12[ARM] Allow r2 to be passed through the decompressor to the kernelRussell King
This is part of a patch from Marc Singer to allow r2 to be passed to the kernel. Marc's original comments follow: This revised R2 (atags pointer) patch incorporates comments from Nico Pitre and Ben Dooks. It modifies the head.S files such that the R2 value set by the bootloader is conveyed to the kernel startup code. The kernel head.S heuristically validates the pointer. It will set R2 to zero if it believes the pointer is invalid. Presently, it requires that the ATAGS list reside in the first 16KiB of physical RAM. Relaxing this contraint may be both desirable as well as tricky. Signed-off-by: Marc Singer <elf@buici.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-01-12[ARM] 3256/1: Make the function-returning ldm's use sp as the base registerCatalin Marinas
Patch from Catalin Marinas If the low interrupt latency mode is enabled for the CPU (from ARMv6 onwards), the ldm/stm instructions are no longer atomic. An ldm instruction restoring the sp and pc registers can be interrupted immediately after sp was updated but before the pc. If this happens, the CPU restores the base register to the value before the ldm instruction but if the base register is not sp, the interrupt routine will corrupt the stack and the restarted ldm instruction will load garbage. Note that future ARM cores might always run in the low interrupt latency mode. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-01-12[ARM] 3237/1: PXA I2C driver updatesRichard Purdie
Patch from Richard Purdie This patch adds a check to see if the pxa i2c interface is enabled before allowing it to be used and resets it if found to be disabled. This automatically restores the interface if the device has been suspended and resumed without causing any suspend/resume call ordering issues. The patch also fixes a build warning and adds an appropriate module licence (the module is gpl according to the header).

2006-01-12[ARM] 3209/1: Configurable DMA-consistent memory regionKevin Hilman
Patch from Kevin Hilman This patch increase available DMA-consistent memory allocated by dma_coherent_alloc(). The default remains at 2M (defined in asm/memory.h) and each platform has the ability to override in asm/arch-foo/memory.h.

2006-01-10[ARM] 3252/1: help gcc do the best with ___arch__swab32Nicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre Depending on your gcc version, the current C-only implementation would produce suboptimal code, ranging from a bad register selection forcing an additional mov instruction to a failure to merge the eor and the ror in a single instruction. With a little help gcc always produces the best code. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2006-01-09[PATCH] rcu: don't set ->next_pending in rcu_start_batch()Oleg Nesterov
I think it is better to set ->next_pending in the caller, when it is needed. This saves one parameter, and this coincides with cpu_quiet() beahaviour, which sets ->completed = ->cur itself.

The patch changes semaphores that are initialized as locked to complete(). Source: MontaVista Software, Inc. Modified-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> The following patch is from Montavista.

2006-01-09[PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: VFS, ->i_semJes Sorensen
This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different.

2006-01-09[PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: XFSJes Sorensen
This patch switches XFS over to use the new mutex code directly as opposed to the previous workaround patch I posted earlier that avoided the namespace clash by forcing it back to semaphores.

2006-01-09[PATCH] mutex subsystem, add default include/asm-*/mutex.h filesArjan van de Ven
add the per-arch mutex.h files for the remaining architectures. We default to asm-generic/mutex-dec.h, because that performs quite well on most arches. Arches that do not have atomic decrement/increment instructions should switch to mutex-xchg.h instead. Arches can also provide their own implementation for the mutex fastpath primitives.

2006-01-09[PATCH] mutex subsystem, add asm-generic/mutex-[dec|xchg|null].h implementationsIngo Molnar
Add three (generic) mutex fastpath implementations. The mutex-xchg.h implementation is atomic_xchg() based, and should work fine on every architecture. The mutex-dec.h implementation is atomic_dec_return() based - this one too should work on every architecture, but might not perform the most optimally on architectures that have no atomic-dec/inc instructions. The mutex-null.h implementation forces all calls into the slowpath. This is used for mutex debugging, but it can also be used on platforms that do not want (or need) a fastpath at all.
