2008-09-10[IA64] fix compile failure with non modular buildsJames Bottomley
Broke the non modular builds by moving an essential function into modules.c. Fix this by moving it out again and into asm/sections.h as an inline. To do this, the definitions of struct fdesc and struct got_val have been lifted out of modules.c and put in asm/elf.h where they belong.

2008-09-09lib: Correct printk %pF to work on all architecturesJames Bottomley
It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7bd0020f29ffe287dfdb9ead33ca0b2. However, the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1) parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for function descriptors Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64 and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

2008-07-17 [IA64] adding parameter check to module_free()Akiyama, Nobuyuki
module_free() refers the first parameter before checking. But it is called like below(in kernel/kprobes). The first parameter is always NULL. This happens when many probe points(>1024) are set by kprobes. I encountered this with using SystemTap. It can set many probes easily. static int __kprobes collect_one_slot(struct kprobe_insn_page *kip, int idx) { ... if (kip->nused == 0) { hlist_del(&kip->hlist); if (hlist_empty(&kprobe_insn_pages)) { ... } else { module_free(NULL, kip->insns); //<<< 1st param always NULL kfree(kip); } return 1; } return 0; } Signed-off-by: Akiyama, Nobuyuki <akiyama.nobuyuk@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

2008-01-30modules: fold percpu_modcopy into module.ctravis@sgi.com
percpu_modcopy() is defined multiple times in arch files. However, the only user is module.c. Put a static definition into module.c and remove the definitions from the arch files. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-01-30percpu: make the asm-generic/percpu.h more "generic"travis@sgi.com
- add support for PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES - fix generic smp percpu_modcopy to use per_cpu_offset() macro. Add the ability to use generic/percpu even if the arch needs to override several aspects of its operations. This will enable the use of generic percpu.h for all arches. An arch may define: __per_cpu_offset Do not use the generic pointer array. Arch must define per_cpu_offset(cpu) (used by x86_64, s390). __my_cpu_offset Can be defined to provide an optimized way to determine the offset for variables of the currently executing processor. Used by ia64, x86_64, x86_32, sparc64, s/390. SHIFT_PTR(ptr, offset) If an arch defines it then special handling of pointer arithmentic may be implemented. Used by s/390. (Some of these special percpu arch implementations may be later consolidated so that there are less cases to deal with.)

2006-04-06[IA64] for_each_possible_cpu: ia64KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs. We've had mistakes in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been iterating across only online or present CPUs. This is inefficient and possibly buggy. We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the future. This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu under arch/ia64/kernel/.

2005-10-25[IA64] wider use of for_each_cpu_mask() in arch/ia64hawkes@sgi.com
In arch/ia64 change the explicit use of for-loops and NR_CPUS into the general for_each_cpu() or for_each_online_cpu() constructs, as appropriate. This widens the scope of potential future optimizations of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu().

2005-06-08[IA64] Module gp must point to valid memoryKeith Owens
Some bits of the kernel assume that gp always points to valid memory, in particular PHYSICAL_MODE_ENTER() assumes that both gp and sp are valid virtual addresses with associated physical pages. The IA64 module loader puts gp well past the end of the module, with no physical backing. Offsets on gp are still valid, but physical mode addressing breaks for modules. Ensure that gp always falls within the module body. Also ensure that gp is 8 byte aligned. Signed-off-by: Keith Owens <kaos@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
