      [PATCH] module names fix · c99f5cea
      Rusty Russell authored
      By Kai Germaschewski:
      
       "Well, I have another solution, which doesn't need additional Makefile
        magic or anything.
      
        I just put the module name into each .o file where <linux/module.h> is
        included. Putting it into the section .gnu.linkonce.modname has the effect
        that even for multi-part modules, we only end up with one copy of the
        name.
      
        Caveat: I'm using the preprocessor macro KBUILD_MODNAME to know what to
        put into .gnu.linkonce.modname. The following used to happen:
      
        (drivers/isdn/eicon/Makefile)
      
        divas-objs := common.o Divas_mod.o ...
        eicon-objs := common.o eicon_mod.o ...
      
        Divas_mod.o is compiled with -DKBUILD_MODNAME=divas
        eicon_mod.o is compiled with -DKBUILD_MODNAME=eicon
        common.o is compiled with -DKBUILD_MODNAME=divas_eicon
      
        So in the case above, both divas.o and eicon.o would end up with
        a .gnu.linkonce.modname section containing "divas_eicon"
      
        My fix to this is to not define KBUILD_MODNAME when compiling an object
        whilch will be linked into more than one module - so common.o gets no
        .gnu.linkonce.modname section at all. Works fine here.
      
        Now, doing this I remove one of the reasons why we would need modules
        linked as '.ko' ;), but it seems much cleaner than generating a temporary
        file, using objcopy etc."

      [PATCH] v850 support · 1504317a
      Rusty Russell authored
      On the v850, the elf toolchain uses a `_' prefix for all user symbols
      (I'm not sure why, since most toolchains seem to have dropped this sort
      of thing).
      
      The attached patch adds the ability to deal with this, if the macro
      MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX is defined by <asm/module.h>.  This only affects
      places where symbol names come from the user, e.g., EXPORT_SYMBOL, or
      the explicit symbol-names used in kernel/module.c itself.

      [PATCH] Table fix for module-init-tools · a110ac32
      Rusty Russell authored
      This patch allows the new depmod to generate the USB & PCI hotplug
      tables.  Greg Banks and I are (slowly) working on a better solution, but
      allows the old-style "modules.pcimap" etc.  to be generated in the short
      term.
      
      This patch adds a "__mod_XXX_table" symbol which is an alias to the
      module table, rather than a pointer.  This makes it relatively trivial
      to extract the table.  Previously, it required a pointer dereference,
      which means the relocations must be applied, which is why the old depmod
      needs so much of modutils (ie.  it basically links the whole module in
      order to find the table).
      
      The old depmod can still be invoked using "-F System.map" to generate
      the tables (there'll be lots of other warnings, and it will generate a
      completely bogus modules.dep, but the tables should be OK.)

      [PATCH] kallsyms in modules fix · 1929e8b2
      Rusty Russell authored
      Two fixes.  Firstly, set ALLOC on the right section so we actually
      keep the symbol names and don't deref a freed section, and secondly
      get the symbol size (more) correct.

      [SERIAL] uart_get_divisor() and uart_get_baud_rate() takes termios. · 493c6685
      Russell King authored
      Currently, uart_get_divisor() and uart_get_baud_rate() take a tty
      structure.  We really want them to take a termios structure so we
      can avoid passing a tty structure all  the way down to the low level
      drivers.
      
      In order to do this, we need to be able to convert a termios
      structure to a numeric baud rate - we provide tty_termios_baud_rate() in
      tty_io.c for this purpose.  It performs a subset of the
      tty_get_baud_rate() functionality, but without any "alt_speed"
      kludge.
      
      We finally export uart_get_baud_rate() and uart_get_divisor() to for
      low level drivers to use.  We now have all the functions in place
      to support ports which want to have access to the real baud rate
      rather than a divisor value.

      [SERIAL] Move quot/divisor calculation to uart_get_divisor() · 512c5637
      Russell King authored
      uart_get_divisor() calculates the divisor for standard uarts, and
      will eventually become a helper function for low level port drivers.

      [SERIAL] Move custom_divisor from uart_state to uart_port. · b1a5ffda
      Russell King authored
      This is another step towards moving the divisor calculations into
      the low level drivers, thereby allowing the faster baud rates
      mentioned in the previous cset.  Moving this field to uart_port
      means that the low level drivers do not have to know about the
      uart_state structure.

      [SERIAL] Replace tty->alt_speed with uart_get_baud_rate() · e75784be
      Russell King authored
      We provide a new function, uart_get_baud_rate(), to return the
      desired numeric baud rate from the uart_port and tty structures.
      This allows us to:
      
      1. localise the 38400 alternate speed kludge to one area.
      2. support faster baud rates than the usual baud_base / desired_rate
         calculations in the future (eventually allowing the use of the
         magic divisors in 8250.c.)

      [SERIAL] Fix failure checks · 55d2c487

      We originally checked for failure by checking if the returned code

      [SERIAL] Pass "iomap" base from probe modules · 7f114818
      Russell King authored
      Patch from Randolph Chung, slightly modified by rmk.
      
      When displaying the details of memory mapped serial ports, we want to show
      some sane base value.  The cookie returned from ioremap can be meaningless
      to users (and developers), especially when the cookie could be a dynamically
      allocated virtual address.
      
      The more useful cookie is the value passed into ioremap.  We already have
      support for handling this cookie internally - we haven't allowed the PCI
      probe module to hand it to the higher levels until now.

      [SERIAL] Export pci_siig10x_fn() and pci_siig20x_fn() · d6f75078
      Russell King authored
      Patch from Zwane Mwaikambo, fixed by rmk, comments by rmk.
      
      SIIG cards have parallel ports in addition to serial ports.  We therefore
      probe the cards in parport_serial.c and call the serial specific probe
      functions in 8250_pci.c
      
      This is the second half of a patch that was applied in 2.5.50 to
      parport_serial by others without the corresponding 8250_pci.c changes.

      [SERIAL] Prevent PNPBIOS re-registering already detected ports · 1d680b7a
      Russell King authored
      During initialisation of 8250 serial, we scan a list of ISA ports and
      register any ports.  We then perform PNPBIOS scanning, which re-registers
      ttyS0.  Unfortunately, if devfs is enabled, devfs reports an error because
      we try to create two tts/0 entries.
      
      Therefore, when adding a new port we check that it has not been detected
      before attempting to probe the port and register it with devfs (via the
      tty layer.)

      [PATCH] abstract out more scsi_device acess out of the low-level drivers · ee89063d
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      Two new helpers: scsi_device_get and scsi_device_put that get/release a
      reference to the underlying HBA driver and increment/decrement
      ->access_count.  Cleanup ->attach/->detach routines in the upper layer
      drivers a bit to consolidate the error pathes once we're cleaning them
      up.
      
      ->attach and ->detach in upper layer drivers are mandatory now (not
      having them would be rather pointless).
      
      (note that the sd.c changes are not in this patch, it'll be part of
      my next, bigger patch)
