2005-06-23[PATCH] use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.shIan Campbell
The attached patch causes the various arch specific install.sh scripts to look for ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel rather than just installkernel (in both /sbin/ and ~/bin/ where the script already did this). This allows you to have e.g. arm-linux-installkernel as a handy way to install on your cross target. It also prevents the script picking up on the host /sbin/installkernel which causes the script to fall through and do the install itself (which is what I actually use myself, with $INSTALL_PATH set). I don't believe it causes back-compatibility problems since calling the host installkernel was never likely to work or be what you wanted when cross compiling anyway. If $CROSS_COMPILE isn't set then nothing changes. I only use ARM and i386 myself but I figured it couldn't hurt to do the whole lot. I've cc'd those who I hope are the arch maintainers for files that I've touched.

2005-06-08[PATCH] ppc64: print negative numbers correctly in boot wrapperOlaf Hering
if num has a value of -1, accessing the digits[] array will fail and the format string will be printed in funny way, or not at all. This happens if one prints negative numbers. Just change the code to match lib/vsprintf.c asm/div64.h cant be used because u64 maps to u32 for this build. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

start.c is not referenced in the arch/ppc64/boot/Makefile compile tested with the defconfig. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-05[PATCH] ppc64: remove asm/bootinfo.h includePaul Mackerras
The defines in bootinfo.h are not used, so the include can be removed. According to Ben, birecs are not used on ppc64: on ppc64, we made the decision of enforcing the presence of an OF device-tree and either an OF-like client interface or a kexec like flattened tree. so if your bootloader want to say things to the kernel, it can do so by adding properties to the device-tree compile-tested with defconfig Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-01[PATCH] ppc64: tell firmware about kernel capabilitiesPaul Mackerras
On pSeries systems, according to the platform architecture specs, we are supposed to be supplying a structure to firmware that tells firmware about our capabilities, such as which version of the data structures that describe available memory we are expecting to see. The way we end up having to supply this data structure is a bit gross, since it was designed for AIX and doesn't suit us very well. This patch adds the code to supply this data structure to the firmware.

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!
