2007-10-31[SPARC64]: Fix linkage of enormous kernels.David S. Miller
This was found by make randconfig If the kernel .text is very large, the .fixup section branches are too far away to be relocated correctly. Use "sethi %hi(label), reg; jmpl reg + %lo(label); %g0" sequence instead of the branch to fix this. There is another case in switch_to() involving a branch, which is fixed similarly.

2006-03-20[SPARC]: Kill off these __put_user_ret things.David S. Miller
They are bogus and haven't been referenced in years. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-03-04[SPARC64]: Mark __ex_table section correctly.David S. Miller
We must use the "a" (allocate) attribute every time we emit an entry into the __ex_table section. For consistency, use "a" instead of #alloc which is some Solaris compat cruft GNU as provides on Sparc. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-09-28[SPARC64]: Simplify user fault fixup handling.David S. Miller
Instead of doing byte-at-a-time user accesses to figure out where the fault occurred, read the saved fault_address from the current thread structure. For the sake of defensive programming, if the fault_address does not fall into the user buffer range, simply assume the whole area faulted. This will cause the fixup for copy_from_user() to clear the entire kernel side buffer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-09-28[SPARC64]: Fix fault handling in unaligned trap handler.David S. Miller
We were not calling kernel_mna_trap_fault() correctly. Instead of being fancy, just return 0 vs. -EFAULT from the assembler stubs, and handle that return value as appropriate. Create an "__retl_efault" stub for assembler exception table entries and use it where possible. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-09-28[SPARC64]: Convert to use generic exception table support.David S. Miller
The funny "range" exception table entries we had were only used by the compat layer socketcall assembly, and it wasn't even needed there. For free we now get proper exception table sorting and fast binary searching. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

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!
