      [PATCH] ethtool power manglement hooks · 263aa157
      Alan Cox authored
      Several ethernet drivers have been broken by the ethtool support because
      the ioctl code used to power the interface up and down as needed. Rather
      than add this to each driver call Jeff Garzik suggested we add hooks
      for before/after ethtool processing.
      
      This patch implements them which makes fixing the PM stuff easier,
      as the epic100 patch to follow will show. It also cleans up the
      via-velocity driver pm/ethtool logic a great deal. As per Jeff's
      request the before handler is allowed to fail the operation.

      [PATCH] Make paca xCurrent field be a pointer · 369a5360
      Paul Mackerras authored
      The paca struct contains a pointer to the current task, which is used
      for the `current' macro.  For some reason, this field is a u64, and
      every time we use it we need a cast, because it is really a pointer.
      This patch cleans things up a little by making it a pointer to struct
      task_struct and removing the casts.  It also removes a now-incorrect
      comment which said that r13 contains current (it now holds
      &paca[smp_processor_id()]).

      [PATCH] Single-stepping emulated instructions · eb18549a
      Paul Mackerras authored
      Occasionally the ppc64 kernel emulates a usermode instruction, for
      example in the alignment exception handler.  Kumar Gala pointed out
      (in the context of the ppc32 kernel) that if the instruction was being
      single-stepped, and we end up emulating the instruction, we should
      then send the process a SIGTRAP as if it had not been emulated and the
      process had then taken a single-step exception.  This patch implements
      this for ppc64.
