2005-09-10[PATCH] ppc32: Kill init on unhandled synchronous signalsPaul Mackerras
This is a patch that I have had in my tree for ages. If init causes an exception that raises a signal, such as a SIGSEGV, SIGILL or SIGFPE, and it hasn't registered a handler for it, we don't deliver the signal, since init doesn't get any signals that it doesn't have a handler for. But that means that we just return to userland and generate the same exception again immediately. With this patch we print a message and kill init in this situation. This is very useful when you have a bug in the kernel that means that init doesn't get as far as executing its first instruction. :) Without this patch the system hangs when it gets to starting the userland init; with it you at least get a message giving you a clue about what has gone wrong.

2005-09-05[PATCH] ppc32: export cacheable_memcpy()Eugene Surovegin
Add declaration and cacheable_memcpy(). I'll be needing this function in new 4xx EMAC driver I'm going to submit to netdev soon. IMHO, the better place for the declaration would be asm-powerpc/string.h, unfortunately, ppc64 doesn't have this function, so asm-ppc/system.h is the next best place.

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!
