2006-03-28[PATCH] pidhash: don't count idle threadsOleg Nesterov
fork_idle() does unhash_process() just after copy_process(). Contrary, boot_cpu's idle thread explicitely registers itself for each pid_type with nr = 0. copy_process() already checks p->pid != 0 before process_counts++, I think we can just skip attach_pid() calls and job control inits for idle threads and kill unhash_process(). We don't need to cleanup ->proc_dentry in fork_idle() because with this patch idle threads are never hashed in kernel/pid.c:pid_hash[]. We don't need to hash pid == 0 in pidmap_init(). free_pidmap() is never called with pid == 0 arg, so it will never be reused. So it is still possible to use pid == 0 in any PIDTYPE_xxx namespace from kernel/pid.c's POV. However with this patch we don't hash pid == 0 for PIDTYPE_PID case. We still have have PIDTYPE_PGID/PIDTYPE_SID entries with pid == 0: /sbin/init and kernel threads which don't call daemonize(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Cc: "Eric W.

add_parent(p, parent) is always called with parent == p->parent, and it makes no sense to do it differently. This patch removes this argument. No changes in affected .o files.

2006-03-28[ARM] 3388/1: ixp23xx: add core ixp23xx supportLennert Buytenhek
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek This patch adds support for the Intel ixp23xx series of CPUs. The ixp23xx is an XSC3 based CPU with 512K of L2 cache, a 64bit 66MHz PCI interface, two DDR RAM interfaces, QDR RAM interfaces, two gigabit MACs, two 10/100 MACs, expansion bus, four microengines, a Media and Switch Fabric unit almost identical to the one on the ixp2400, two xscale (8250ish) UARTs and a bunch of other stuff. This patch adds the core ixp23xx support code, and support for the ADI Engineering Roadrunner, Intel IXDP2351, and IP Fabrics Double Espresso platforms.

2006-03-28[ARM] 3377/2: add support for intel xsc3 coreLennert Buytenhek
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek This patch adds support for the new XScale v3 core. This is an ARMv5 ISA core with the following additions: - L2 cache - I/O coherency support (on select chipsets) - Low-Locality Reference cache attributes (replaces mini-cache) - Supersections (v6 compatible) - 36-bit addressing (v6 compatible) - Single instruction cache line clean/invalidate - LRU cache replacement (vs round-robin) I attempted to merge the XSC3 support into proc-xscale.S, but XSC3 cores have separate errata and have to handle things like L2, so it is simpler to keep it separate. L2 cache support is currently a build option because the L2 enable bit must be set before we enable the MMU and there is no easy way to capture command line parameters at this point. There are still optimizations that can be done such as using LLR for copypage (in theory using the exisiting mini-cache code) but those can be addressed down the road.

2006-03-28[PATCH] powerpc: Kill _machine and hard-coded platform numbersBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism. With this, board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine. We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of _machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants. This commit also changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at _machine.

2006-03-28[PATCH] powerpc: Workaround for pSeries RTAS bugMike Kravetz
A bug in the RTAS services incorrectly interprets some bits in the CR when called from the OS. Specifically, bits in CR4. The result could be a firmware crash that also takes down the partition. A firmware fix is in the works. We have seen this situation when performing DLPAR operations. As a temporary workaround, clear the CR in enter_rtas(). Note that enter_rtas() will not set any bits in CR4 before calling RTAS. Also note that the 32 bit version of enter_rtas() should have the same work around even though the chances of hitting the bug are much smaller due to the lack of DLPAR on 32 bit kernels. However, my assembly skills are a bit rusty and the 32 bit code doesn't seem to follow the conventions for where things should be saved. In addition, I don't have a system to test 32 bit kernels. Help creating and at least touch testing the same workaround for 32 bit would be appreciated. Signed-off-by: Mike Kravetz <kravetz@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
