This entry adds needless complication to the driver as it requires the use of global variables to be passed into via_get_info(), making things quite ugly when we try and make this driver support multiple controllers simultaneously. This patch removes /proc/via for simplicity.

With the new powerpc architecture we don't seem to be able to disable huge pages anymore. mm/built-in.o(.toc1+0xae0): undefined reference to `HPAGE_SHIFT' make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 We seem to need to define HPAGE_SHIFT to something when HUGETLB_PAGE isn't defined. This patch defines it to PAGE_SHIFT when we have no support.

[PATCH] md: fix is_mddev_idle calculation now that disk/sector accounting happens when request completes md needs to monitor the rate of requests to its devices when doing resync/recovery so that it can back-off when there is non-resync IO. It does this by comparing resync IO, which it counts, with total IO which is taken from disk_stats. disk_stats were recently changed to account sectors when a request completes instead of when it is queued. This upsets md's calculations. We could do the sync_io accounting at the end of requests too, but that has problems. If an underlying device is an md array, the accounting will still be done when the request is submitted. This could be changed for some raid levels, but it cannot be changed for raid0 or linear without substantial code changes. So instead, we increase the error that is_mddev_idle allows, up to the maximum amount of resync IO that can be in flight at any time. The calculation is current fragile as each personality as different limits for in-flight resync. This should be fixed up. For now, this simple patch fixes the problem. Increasing the error margin decreases the sensitivity to non-resync IO. To partially compensate for this, the time to wait when non-resync IO is detected is increased so that less steady IO is required to keep the resync at bay.

On IPMI systems with BT interfaces, we don't start the kernel thread, so smi_info->thread is NULL. Test for NULL when stopping the thread, because kthread_stop() doesn't, and an oops ensues otherwise.

One issue with the RCU torture test is that the current error flagging can be lost in dmesg. This patch adds a "SUCCESS"/"FAILURE" string to the line that flags the end of the test, where it can easily be seen with "dmesg | tail" at the end of the test. Also adds tests of architecture-specific memory barriers -- or, more likely, of the RCU torture test itself. Cc: <vatsa@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Paul E.

This makes 32-bit CHRP systems use the RTAS time-of-day routines if available. It fixes a bug in the RTAS time-of-day routines where they were storing a 64-bit timebase value in an unsigned long by making those variables u64. Also, the direct-access time-of-day routines had the wrong convention for the month and year in the struct rtc_time. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

This also deletes the now-unused Makefiles under arch/ppc64. Both of the files moved over could use some merging, but for now I have moved them as-is and arranged for them to be used only in 64-bit kernels. For 32-bit kernels we still use arch/ppc/kernel/idle.c and drivers/char/generic_nvram.c as before. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The config option SPAN_OTHER_NODES was created so that we could make pSeries numa layouts work within the DISCONTIG memory model. Now that DISCONTIG has been replaced by SPARSEMEM, we can eliminate this option. I'll be sending a separate patch to Andrew to remove the arch independent code as pSeries was the only arch that needed this.

This patch merges align.c, the result isn't quite what was in ppc64 nor what was in ppc32 :) It should implement all the functionalities of both though. Kumar, since you played with that in the past, I suppose you have some test cases for verifying that it works properly before I dig out the 601 machine ? :) Since it's likely that I won't be able to test all scenario, code inspection is much welcome.

My earlier merge of delay.h introduced a timebase-based udelay for 32-bit machines but also broke the 601, which doesn't have the timebase register. This fixes it by using the 601's RTC register on the 601, and also moves __delay() and udelay() to be out-of-line in arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c. These functions aren't really performance critical, after all. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Noticed by Olaf Hering. The comparisons want a u8 here (the data type on the left-hand branch is a u8 structure member, and the constant on the right-hand branch is "~((u8) 128)"), but C turns it into an integer so we get: net/llc/llc_c_ac.c: In function `llc_conn_ac_inc_npta_value': net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:998: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:999: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type Fix this up by explicitly recasting the right-hand branch constant into a "u8" once more.
