The nvram code formally known as bpa_nvram.c is rather generic really, so it is quite likely to be useful to future boards not based on cell. This patch puts it into arch/powerpc/sysdev. Signed-off-by:

Cell uses the same code as pSeries for flashing the firmware through rtas, so the implementation should not be part of platforms/pseries. Put it into arch/powerpc/kernel instead. Signed-off-by:

During the conversion to the merge tree, the Cell specific SMP initialization was removed from the pSeries code. This creates a new Cell specific SMP implementation file. Signed-off-by:

The official name for BPA is now CBEA (Cell Broadband Engine Architecture). This patch renames all occurences of the term BPA to 'Cell' for easier recognition. Signed-off-by:

By parsing the command line earlier, we can add the mem= value to the flattened device tree and let the generic code sort out the memory limit for us. Signed-off-by: -

Change USER/KERNEL_DS so that the merged version of __strnlen_user can be used which allows us to complete the removal of arch/ppc64/lib/. Signed-off-by: -

We had a static memory_limit in prom.c, and then another one defined in setup_64.c and used in numa.c, which resulted in the kernel crashing when mem=xxx was given on the command line. This puts the declaration in system.h and the definition in mem.c. This also moves the definition of tce_alloc_start/end out of setup_64.c. Signed-off-by: -

This patch removes duplicate directory scanning code from fs/fat/dir.c. The two functions that share identical code are fat_readdirx() and fat_search_long(). This patch also renames fat_readdirx to __fat_readdir(). Signed-off-by:

Now, vfat_rename() is using vfat_find() for sanity check. This removes that sanity check, the cost of sanity check is too high. Signed-off-by:

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round. Signed-off-by:

This patch removes checks for ->si_code == SI_TIMER from send_signal, specific_send_sig_info, __group_send_sig_info. I think posix-timers.c used these functions some time ago, now it sends signals via send_{,group_}sigqueue, so these hooks are unneeded. Signed-off-by:Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Signed-off-by:

- Use HPET physical address to detect duplicates, not logical addresses. Using logical (mapped) addresses fails to detect duplicates because ioremap() returns a new mapped address each time. - iounmap() regions when duplicate/busy areas are found. Signed-off-by:

When booting, display the timer frequency in Hertz instead of as tick length in nanoseconds. Apart from saving a local variable, this makes the message more easily comprehensible. Signed-off-by:

In the hpet_ioctl_common() function, devp->hd_hpets is already cached in the hpetp variable, so we can use just that. Signed-off-by:

Fix a wrong memory access in hpet_ioctl_common(). It was not possible to use the HPET_INFO ioctl from kernel space because it always called copy_to_user(). Signed-off-by:

Reads from an HPET register require a round trip to the south bridge and are almost as slow as PCI reads. By caching the last value we've written to the comparator register, we can eliminate all HPET reads from the fast path in the emulated RTC interrupt handler. Signed-off-by:

Make sure that the RTC timer is in non-periodic mode; some stupid BIOS might have initialized it to periodic mode. Furthermore, don't set the SETVAL bit in the config register. This wouldn't have any effect unless the timer was in period mode (which it isn't), and then the actual timer frequency would be half that of the desired one because incrementing the comparator in the interrupt handler would be done after the hardware has already incremented it itself.

When the emulated RTC interrupt is no longer needed, we better disable it; otherwise, we get a spurious interrupt whenever the timer has rolled over and reaches the same comparator value. Having a superfluous interrupt every five minutes doesn't hurt much, but it's bad style anyway. ;-) Signed-off-by:

This patch adds support for shared HPET interrupts. The driver previously acknowledged interrupts for both edge and level interrupts, but didn't actually allow a shared interrupt in the latter case. We use a new per-timer flag to save whether the timer's interrupt might be shared, and use it to do the processing required for level interrupts only if necessary. Signed-off-by:

It was only the RTC hardware that restricted interrupt frequencies to a power of two. There is no reason to take over this restriction into the HPET driver, so remove the offending check. Signed-off-by:
