2008-04-17Generic semaphore implementationMatthew Wilcox
Semaphores are no longer performance-critical, so a generic C implementation is better for maintainability, debuggability and extensibility. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for fixing the lockdep warning. Thanks to Harvey Harrison for pointing out that the unlikely() was unnecessary. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-02-04[IA64] Export three symbols for module useZhang, Xiantao
Since kvm/module needs to use some unexported functions in kernel, so export them with this patch. Signed-off-by: Zhang Xiantao <xiantao.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2007-12-07[IA64] export copy_page() to modulesAndrew Morton
With the unionfs patch applied I get ERROR: "copy_page" [fs/unionfs/unionfs.ko] undefined! the other architectures (some, at least) export copy_page() so I guess ia64 should also do so. To do this we need to move the copy_page() functions out of lib.a and into built-in.o and add the EXPORT_SYMBOL().

2006-12-07[IA64] Need export for csum_ipv6_magicTony Luck
Now we have our own highly optimized assembly code version of this routine (Thanks Ken!) we should export it so that it can be used. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

2006-06-21[IA64] esi-supportDavid Mosberger-Tang
Add support for making ESI calls [1]. ESI stands for "Extensible SAL specification" and is basically a way for invoking firmware subroutines which are identified by a GUID. I don't know whether ESI is used by vendors other than HP (if you do, please let me know) but as firmware "backdoors" go, this seems one of the cleaner methods, so it seems reasonable to support it, even though I'm not aware of any publicly documented ESI calls. I'd have liked to make the ESI module completely stand-alone, but unfortunately that is not easily (or not at all) possible because in order to make ESI calls in physical mode, a small stub similar to the EFI stub is needed in the kernel proper. I did try to create a stub that would work in user-level, but it quickly got ugly beyond recognition (e.g., the stub had to make assumptions about how the module-loader generated call-stubs work) and I didn't even get it to work (that's probably fixable, but I didn't bother because I concluded it was too ugly anyhow). While it's not terribly elegant to have kernel code which isn't actively used in the kernel proper, I think it might be worth making an exception here for two reasons: the code is trivially small (all that's really needed is esi_stub.S) and by including it in the normal kernel distro, it might encourage other OEMs to also use ESI, which I think would be far better than each inventing their own firmware "backdoor". The code was originally written by Alex. I just massaged and packaged it a bit (and perhaps messed up some things along the way...). Changes since first version of patch that was posted to mailing list: * Export ia64_esi_call and ia64_esi_call_phys() as GPL symbols. * Disallow building esi.c as a module for now. Building as a module would currently lead to an unresolved reference to "sal_lock" on SMP kernels because that symbol doesn't get exported. * Export esi_call_phys() only if ESI is enabled. * Remove internal stuff from esi.h and add a "proc_type" argument to ia64_esi_call() such that serialization-requirements can be expressed (ESI follows SAL here, where procedure calls may have to be serialized, are MP-safe, or MP-safe andr reentrant).

2005-11-29[IA64] - Make pfn_valid more precise for SGI Altix systemsDean Roe
A single SGI Altix system can be divided into multiple partitions, each running their own instance of the Linux kernel. pfn_valid() is currently not optimal for any but the first partition, since it does not compare the pfn with min_low_pfn before calling the more costly ia64_pfn_valid().

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
