      [PATCH] PowerPC Virtual Ethernet links to /sys/class/net/ethX · 5ea484a8
      Santiago Leon authored
      This adds links to the driver and device inside /sys/class/net/ethX for
      PowerPC Virtual Ethernet devices.

      [PATCH] PowerPC Virtual Ethernet duplicate MAC addresses · 49ac9cc3
      Santiago Leon authored
      This fixes a bug where different partitions were assigned the same MAC
      address.  Also, according to Anton, gcc 3.5 didn't like our mac_addr_p
      gymnastics, so this ends up fixing that as well.

      [PATCH] ppc64 iSeries: allow read only virtual disks · 4d45d920
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
      
      It is possible to attach a virtual disk to a logical partition on an iSeries
      machine so that it is read only to the partition.  This patch allows Linux to
      use such virtual disks.

      [PATCH] ppc64: strengthen I/O and memory barriers · 2c3956c9
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
      
      After I sent the recent patch to include/asm-ppc64/io.h which put stronger
      barriers in the I/O accessor macros, Paul McKenney pointed out to me that a
      writex/outx could still slide out from inside a spinlocked region.  This patch
      makes the barriers a bit stronger so that this can't happen.  It means that we
      need to use a sync instruction for wmb (a full "heavyweight" sync), since
      drivers rely on wmb for ordering between writes to system memory and writes to
      a device.
      
      I have left smb_wmb() as a lighter-weight barrier that orders stores, and
      doesn't impose an ordering between cacheable and non-cacheable accesses (the
      amusingly-named eieio instruction).  I am assuming here that smp_wmb is only
      used for ordering stores to system memory so that another cpu will see them in
      order.  It can't be used for enforcing any ordering that a device will see,
      because it is just a gcc barrier on UP.
      
      This also changes the spinlock/rwlock unlock code to use lwsync ("light-weight
      sync") rather than eieio, since eieio doesn't order loads, and we need to
      ensure that loads stay inside the spinlocked region.

      [PATCH] ppc64: Kconfig bits for CONFIG_SPINLINE · 24f59760
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
      
      When I sent the patch to uninline the spinlocks, I inadvertently left out
      the change to arch/ppc64/Kconfig which defines the config symbol for
      inlining the locks (CONFIG_SPINLINE now).  This patch adds it.  It also
      adds a symbol CONFIG_PPC_SPLPAR which enables the code for calling the
      hypervisor on shared-processor logically-partitioned system to yield the
      physical processor to the lock holder when spinning.  (The code that
      depends on this symbol is already present in arch/ppc64/lib/locks.c.)

      The patch below moves some declarations from C files into the appropriate

      [PATCH] ppc32: Fix pmac compile after OCP changes · c13dbf34
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
      
      Matt Porter's recent changes broke the compile for non-4xx ppc32 systems,
      unfortunately.  I get an error that mfdcr is not defined in
      include/asm-ppc/ocp.h when compiling for powermac (reasonable, since the
      mfdcr instruction only exists on 4xx processors).  The patch below fixes
      it.

      of the version that went into 2.4.  From Eugene Surovegin

      [PATCH] befs: inode->i_flags thinko fix · a710c387
      Andrew Morton authored
      Jorn Engel <joern@wohnheim.fh-wedel.de>
      
      inode->i_flags should never contain fs-specific flags.  In fact, it doesn't;
      the checks against it cause "chattr +T" to be useless for ext[23].  Same bug
      was in befs as well.
