2005-11-07[ARM] 3118/1: fix and reenable nwfpe extended precision emulation for big-endianLennert Buytenhek
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek nwfpe extended precision emulation used to be broken on big-endian and was therefore disabled. This patch fixes nwfpe so that it copies extended precision floats to/from userspace in the proper word order (similar to patch #2046, see the description of that patch for an explanation) and reenables the Kconfig option.

2005-11-07[ARM] 3117/1: nwfpe kernel memory info leakLennert Buytenhek
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek The routine that nwfpe uses for converting floats/doubles to extended precision fails to zero two bytes of kernel stack. This is not immediately obvious, as the floatx80 structure has 16 bits of implicit padding (by design.) These two bytes are copied to userspace when an stfe is emulated, causing a possible info leak. Make the padding explicit and zero it out in the relevant places. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@wantstofly.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-10-12[ARM] 2978/1: nwfpe - clean up sparse errorsBen Dooks
Patch from Ben Dooks The NWFPE is producing a number of errors from sparse due to not defining a number of functions in the header files. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

a bunch of functions switched from volatile to __attribute__((noreturn)) and from const to __attribute_pure__ Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-08-15[PATCH] ARM: 2851/1: Fix NWFPE extended precision exception handlingRichard Purdie
Patch from Richard Purdie The exception handling code fails to compile if the extended precision mode is enabled. This patch fixes those compile errors and also stops _quiet functions from incorrectly raising exceptions.

2005-08-03[PATCH] ARM: 2837/2: Re: ARM: Make NWFPE preempt safeRichard Purdie
Patch from Richard Purdie NWFPE used global variables which meant it wasn't safe for use with preemptive kernels. This patch removes them and communicates the information between functions in a preempt safe manner. Generation of some exceptions was broken and this has also been corrected. Tests with glibc's maths test suite show no change in the results before/after this patch. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-07-17[PATCH] ARM: Remove global nwfpe register variableRussell King
Recent changes to nwfpe broke the build with some gcc versions: In file included from arch/arm/nwfpe/softfloat.c:33: arch/arm/nwfpe/fpa11.h:32: global register variable follows a function definition make[1]: *** [arch/arm/nwfpe/softfloat.o] Error 1 Since we now ensure that the kernel stack is empty when returning to user space, we can now access the userspace registers with reference to the kernel stack using current_thread_info(), rather than remembering the stack pointer at the time nwfpe was called.

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!
