2007-07-24[WATCHDOG] mv64x60_wdt: Add arch/powerpc platform supportDale Farnsworth
Add support for arch/powerpc, specifically for the prpmc2800 platform. Signed-off-by: Dale Farnsworth <dale@farnsworth.org> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>
2007-07-24[WATCHDOG] mv64x60_wdt: Get register address from platform dataDale Farnsworth
Previously, the address of the watchdog timer registers was retrieved by calling a global function, mv64x60_get_bridge_vbase(). That function doesn't exist in arch/powerpc. Instead, we now get the register address from a platform data resource and ioremap the registers within the driver.

2007-07-24[WATCHDOG] mv64x60_wdt: set up platform_device in platform codeDale Farnsworth
The driver previously registered its platform device data in its own init function--that's bogus. Move that code to platform-specific code in arch/ppc. This is being done so that the platform code can decide at runtime whether to initialize this driver or not.

2007-07-24[WATCHDOG] ensure mouse and keyboard ignored in w83627hf_wdtPádraig Brady
1. Ensure that the mouse and keyboard do not ping the watchdog. This is the default operation of the w83627, but some BIOSes change this. 2. Increase the max timeout from 63 seconds to 255 seconds as supported by the w83627 chip 3.

2007-07-20[ARM] 4495/1: iop: combined watchdog timer driver for iop3xx and iop13xxDan Williams
In order for this driver to be shared across the iop architectures the iop3xx and iop13xx header files are modified to present a common interface for the iop_wdt driver. Details: * iop13xx supports disabling the timer while iop3xx does not. This requires a few 'compatibility' definitions in include/asm-arm/hardware/iop3xx.h to preclude adding #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_IOP13XX blocks to the driver code. * The heartbeat interval is derived from the internal bus clock rate, so this this patch also exports the tick rate to the iop_wdt driver.

2007-07-18zs: move to the serial subsystemMaciej W. Rozycki
This is a reimplementation of the zs driver for the serial subsystem. Any resemblance to the old driver is purely coincidential. ;-) I do hope I got the handling of modem lines right -- better do not tackle me about the issue unless you feel too good... Any users of the old driver: please note the numbers of the serial lines have now been swapped, i.e. ttyS0 <-> ttyS1 and ttyS2 <-> ttyS3. It has to do with the modem lines mentioned above; basically the port A in a given chip has to be initialised before the port B if you want to use the latter as the serial console (which is usually the case), as operations on modem lines of the serial line associated with the port B access both ports (see the comment at the top of the driver for the details of wiring used). Please update your scripts. This is also the reason each SCC now requests an IRQ once only (as seen in "/proc/interrupts") -- the handler takes care of both ports at once as the line associated with the port B has to take status update interrupts from both ports (and yet the line of the port A takes its own for itself too). The old driver never got it right... Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

If a a primary adapter is detected, fbcon will unbind the old adapter from the VT layer, then rebind using the new adapter. This requires that bind_/unbind_con_driver() be made public.

Move brdp->iosize assignment in stli_initecp up a few lines to stop the driver from requesting an I/O region of length 0. Remove spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore from __stli_sendcmd as all users of that function take the lock already.
