2005-07-26[PATCH] Don't export machine_restart, machine_halt, or machine_power_off.Eric W. Biederman
machine_restart, machine_halt and machine_power_off are machine specific hooks deep into the reboot logic, that modules have no business messing with. Usually code should be calling kernel_restart, kernel_halt, kernel_power_off, or emergency_restart. So don't export machine_restart, machine_halt, and machine_power_off so we can catch buggy users.

2005-07-01[PATCH] alpha smp fix (part #2)Ivan Kokshaysky
This fixes the bug that caused BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled()) to trigger in run_posix_cpu_timers() on alpha/smp. We didn't disable interrupts properly before calling smp_percpu_timer_interrupt(). We *do* disable interrupts everywhere except this unfortunate smp_percpu_timer_interrupt(). Fixed thus. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-30[PATCH] alpha smp fixIvan Kokshaysky
As usual, the reason of this breakage is quite silly: in do_entIF, we are checking for PS == 0 to see whether it was a kernel BUG() or userspace trap. It works, unless BUG() happens in interrupt - PS is not 0 in kernel mode due to non-zero IPL, and the things get messed up horribly then. In this particular case it was BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled()) triggered in run_posix_cpu_timers(), so we ended up shooting "current" with the bursts of one SIGTRAP and three SIGILLs on every timer tick. ;-)

Use helper functions to convert between timeval structure and jiffies rather than custom logic.

2005-05-01[PATCH] convert that currently tests _NSIG directly to use valid_signal()Jesper Juhl
Convert most of the current code that uses _NSIG directly to instead use valid_signal(). This avoids gcc -W warnings and off-by-one errors. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <juhl-lkml@dif.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

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!
