This code has been dead for many years. The last update it received was in 2003 in order to update it for the driver model changes, though it had already been in disarray and unused before that point. The only boards that ever used this chip have not had users in many years either, so it is finally safe to just kill it off and move on with life. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2008-10-28ACPI: bugfix reporting of event handler statusZhang Rui
Introduce a new flag showing whether the event has an event handler/method. For all the GPEs and Fixed Events, 1. ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE is cleared, it's an "invalid" ACPI event. 2. Both ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE and ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_DISABLE are set, it's "disabled". 3. Both ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE and ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_ENABLE are set, it's "enabled". 4. Both ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_HANDLE and ACPI_EVENT_FLAG_WAKE_ENABLE are set, it's "wake_enabled". Among other things, this prevents incorrect reporting of ACPI events as being "invalid" when it's really just (temporarily) "disabled".

2008-10-22ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power ↵Zhao Yakui
transition Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0 state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0 state. In such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device can't be transited to the correct power state. So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking the device power in the course of device power transition. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8049 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11000 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2008-10-22powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernelMohan Kumar M
This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234) is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels. The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter. CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and kdump kernel. This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.

2008-10-20PCI: fix MSI-HOWTO.txt info about MSI-X MMIO spaceRoland Dreier
The current MSI-HOWTO.txt says that device drivers should not request the memory space that contains MSI-X tables. This is because the original MSI-X implementation did a request_mem_region() on this space, but that code was removed long ago (in the pre-git era, in fact). Years after the code was changed, we might as well clean up the documention to avoid a confusing mention of requesting regions: drivers using MSI-X can just use pci_request_regions() just like any other driver, and so there's no need for MSI-HOWTO.txt to talk about this at all.
