2008-12-17powerpc: Fix corruption error in rh_alloc_fixed()Guillaume Knispel
There is an error in rh_alloc_fixed() of the Remote Heap code: If there is at least one free block blk won't be NULL at the end of the search loop, so -ENOMEM won't be returned and the else branch of "if (bs == s || be == e)" will be taken, corrupting the management structures.

2008-04-17[POWERPC] Make rheap safe for spinlocksTimur Tabi
The rheap allocation function, rh_alloc, could call kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL. This can sleep, which means you couldn't hold a spinlock while called rh_alloc. Change all kmalloc calls to use GFP_ATOMIC so that it won't sleep. This is safe because only small blocks are allocated.

2007-07-29Remove fs.h from mm.hAlexey Dobriyan
Remove fs.h from mm.h. For this, 1) Uninline vma_wants_writenotify(). It's pretty huge anyway. 2) Add back fs.h or less bloated headers (err.h) to files that need it. As result, on x86_64 allyesconfig, fs.h dependencies cut down from 3929 files rebuilt down to 3444 (-12.3%).

2007-06-19[POWERPC] rheap - eliminates internal fragments caused by alignmentLi Yang
The patch adds fragments caused by rh_alloc_align() back to free list, instead of allocating the whole chunk of memory. This will greatly improve memory utilization managed by rheap. It solves MURAM not enough problem with 3 UCCs enabled on MPC8323.

2007-05-17[POWERPC] Fix alignment problem in rh_alloc_align() with exact-sized blocksTimur Tabi
When an rheap is created, the caller can specify the alignment to use. In rh_alloc_align(), if a free block is found that is the exact size needed (including extra space for alignment), that configured alignment value is not used to align the pointer. Instead, the default alignment is used. If the default alignment is smaller than the configured alignment, then the returned value will not be aligned correctly.

2007-05-09[POWERPC] Change rheap functions to use ulongs instead of pointersTimur Tabi
The rheap allocation functions return a pointer, but the actual value is based on how the heap was initialized, and so it can be anything, e.g. an offset into a buffer. A ulong is a better representation of the value returned by the allocation functions. This patch changes all of the relevant rheap functions to use a unsigned long integers instead of a pointer. In case of an error, the value returned is a negative error code that has been cast to an unsigned long. The caller can use the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro to check for this. All code which calls the rheap functions is updated accordingly. Macros IS_MURAM_ERR() and IS_DPERR(), have been deleted in favor of IS_ERR_VALUE(). Also added error checking to rh_attach_region().

2007-02-07[POWERPC] Fix array indexing error in rheap grow()Timur Tabi
The grow() function in the rheap library allocates a larger array of blocks, copies the contents of the old blocks array to the newly allocated array and fixes the list_head pointers after the copy. At the end, the new blocks must be enqueued to the empty_list of the rh_info_t structure. This patch fixes a bug where the code was indexing past the end of the array when enqueueing blocks. The UCC ethernet driver, which uses the rheap allocator, experiences kernel panics because of this bug.

2005-09-26powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc.Paul Mackerras
This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm, arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac. This is enough to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc. For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc. The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting.
