      [PATCH] x86-64 next sync for 2.5.9 · 4ee6539d
      Andi Kleen authored
      This patch fixes up some lose ends left over from the last x86-64 jumbo merge.
      
       - make it compile again. ia32_ioctl was referencing IDE ioctls that got
         remove in a merge race
       - Use the memset/FXRSTOR way to initialize the FPU, as discussed.
       - Fix semctl/shmctl ABI (thanks to Andreas Schwab)
       - Other minor fixes.

      [PATCH] x86-64 architecture specific sync for 2.5.8 · 88e4bc32
      Andi Kleen authored
      This patch brings 2.5.8 in sync with the x86-64 2.4 development tree again
      (excluding device drivers)
      
      It has lots of bug fixes and enhancements. It only touches architecture
      specific files.
      
      - Sync with 2.5.8
      - SMP/APIC supported now.
      - Module loading works now.
      - Time keeping bugs fixed.
      - entry.S streamlined and some bugs fixed.
      - modify_ldt works now
      - mostly rewritten FPU support (including FXRSTOR for initial FPU
        initialization based on the initial state)
      - 32bit emulation enhanced and bugs fixed.
      - rewrote mm initialization and lots of cleanups in the page table handling
        __PAGE_OFFSET is now moved to 0x10000000000 and some vmalloc/ioremap
        problems have been fixed. They have an own PML4 slot now.
      - WCHAN reporting support for RIP (but not RSP)
      - Lots of various other bug fixes and cleanups.
      
      Currently broken:
      - ACPI
      - MTRR
      
      It needs some other bugfixes outside architecture specific code. I sent
      them all in separate mail.

      [PATCH] 2.5.6-pre2 IDE cleanup 16 · 24ae9cff
      Martin Dalecki authored
      There is no such a thing like a ide-clean-15. Never was.  But here comes
      what has been done in ide-clean-16:
      
      - Apply a patch for the initialization of the second PIIX channel.
         Found by Daniel Quinlan <quinlan@transmeta.com>
      
      - Apply a patch for the DMA initialization of the serverworks chip.
         Ken Brownfield <brownfld@irridia.com>
      
      - Make the ata_operations methods immune against device type drivers,
         which donot provide them by separating the access to them out. Audit
         them all.
      
      - Resynchronize with 2.5.6-pre1.
      
      - Remove unused IDE_DRIVE_CMD, IDE_DRIVE_TASK, IDE_DRIVE_TASK_MASK,
         IDE_DRIVE_TASKFILE macros.
      
      - Disable configuration of the task file stuff. It is going to go away
         and will be replaced by a truly abstract interface based on
         functionality and *not* direct mess-up of hardware.
      
      - Resync with 2.5.6-pre2.
      
      - Add HPT entries to the fall-back list, since otherwise the driver
         won'trecognize the drives. We will have to make this the default
         behavior for allnot recognized host chip types.
      
      - Fix compilation with no PCI host chip support enabled.
      
      - Apply the overflow fixes for HPT366 by Vojtech Pavlik.
      
      - Kill the one-shoot functions ide_wait_cmd_taks() ide_wait_cmd() by
         moving them to the places where they are actually used. Fix a
         potential buffer overflow on the way.
      
      - Fix usage of ide.c as module. Thanks to Adam J. Richter for figuring
         out what was wrong.
      
      - Various cleanups all along as well as removal of TONS of
         unfinished/dead code.
      
      I think it's sometimes better to remove stuff, which isn't there,
      instead of hoping for a "magical day" where it will be finished.

      [PATCH] x86-64 update for 2.5.5 · 3d614679
      Andi Kleen authored
      This patch makes x86-64 compile in 2.5.5 and syncs it with changes in the i386
      port. It also fixes some bugs that were discovered in recent testing:
      - enhance 32bit emulation and fix bugs.
      - fix security hole in vmalloc handling
      - Do not use lockless gettimeofday for now because it is buggy.
      The patch only changes x86_64 specific files.

      [PATCH] x86_64 merge: arch + asm · 0457d99a
      Andi Kleen authored
      This adds the x86_64 arch and asm directories and a Documentation/x86_64.
      
      It took a bit longer because I first had to make preemption and thread_info
      work and also found some other bugs while doing this. The port has been
      tested for a long time on UP.
      
      I'm not sure what I should describe.  A lot is based on i386 with
      a lot of cleanups. I wrote a paper about it for last year's OLS that describes
      most of the changes (ftp://ftp.firstfloor.org/pub/ak/x86_64.ps.gz). It is
      a bit outdated now, but should give a good overview.
      
      It currently has a completely cut'n'pasted from others+hacked 32bit
      emulation. I hope to clean that up in the future by merging the generic
      core of this with other 64bit archs.
      
      Thanks,
      -Andi
