      [PATCH] powerpc: Merge signal.h · c5ff7001
      David Gibson 提交于
      Having already merged the ppc and ppc64 versions of signal.c, this
      patch finishes the job by merging signal.h.  The two versions were
      almost identical already.  Notable changes:
      	- We use BITS_PER_LONG to correctly size sigset_t
      	- Remove some uneeded #includes and struct forward
      declarations.  This does mean adding an include to signal_32.c which
      relied on the indirect inclusion of sigcontext.h
      	- As the ppc64 version, the merged signal.h has prototypes for
      do_signal() and do_signal32().  Thus remove extra prototypes from
      ppc_ksyms.c which had them directly.
      
      Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc).  Built
      for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc).

      [PATCH] powerpc: Kill ppcdebug · dcad47fc
      David Gibson 提交于
      The ancient ppcdebug/PPCDBG mechanism is now only used in two places.
      First, in the hash setup code, one of the bits allows the size of the
      hash table to be reduced by a factor of 8 - which would be better
      accomplished with a command line option for that purpose.  The other
      was a bunch of bus walking related messages in the iSeries code, which
      would seem to be insufficient reason to keep the mechanism.
      
      This patch removes the last traces of this mechanism.
      
      Built and booted on iSeries and pSeries POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc).

      [PATCH] powerpc: Fix handling of fpscr on 64-bit · 25c8a78b
      David Gibson 提交于
      The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
      ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y.  FP registers could be corrupted,
      leading to strange random application crashes.
      
      The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
      64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
      instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU.  However, only the low
      32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
      when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit.  This
      patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
      quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
      The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
      is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
      from the FPU.
      
      While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
      cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
      arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
      arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S.  The
      new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
      offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
      to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.
      
      Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
      code, which it previously did not.
      
      Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
      and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
      Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
      longer do.

      [PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes. · 69be8f18
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is
      not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it.  I've written a
      program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had
      several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes,
      confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled.
      
      The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows:
      
      1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked.
      
      2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is
      still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_
      NetBSD 2.0 *).
      
      The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux:
      
      1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of
      sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this).
      
      2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being
      handled is not blocked.
      
      The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to
      the way most Unix boxes work.
      
      Unix boxes that were tested:  DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU
      3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX.
      
      * NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The
      main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like
      Linux.  So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that
      behaves differently here with #2.

      [PATCH] ppc64: fix 32-bit signal frame back link · 9747dd6f
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      When the kernel creates a signal frame on the user stack, it puts the
      old stack pointer value at the beginning so that the signal frame is
      linked into the chain of stack frames like any other frame.
      Unfortunately, for 32-bit processes we are writing the old stack
      pointer as a 64-bit value rather than a 32-bit value, and the process
      sees that as a null pointer, since it only looks at the first 32 bits,
      which are zero since ppc is bigendian and the stack pointer is below
      4GB.  This bug is in SLES9 and RHEL4 too, hence the ccs.
      
      This patch fixes the bug by making the signal code write the old stack
      pointer as a u32 instead of an unsigned long.

      Linux-2.6.12-rc2 · 1da177e4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      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!
