      [PATCH] ARM: 2651/3: kernel helpers for NPTL support · 2d2669b6
      由 Nicolas Pitre 提交于 
      Patch from Nicolas Pitre

This patch entirely reworks the kernel assistance for NPTL on ARM.
In particular this provides an efficient way to retrieve the TLS
value and perform atomic operations without any instruction emulation
nor special system call.  This even allows for pre ARMv6 binaries to
be forward compatible with SMP systems without any penalty.
The problematic and performance critical operations are performed
through segment of kernel provided user code reachable from user space
at a fixed address in kernel memory.  Those fixed entry points are
within the vector page so we basically get it for free as no extra
memory page is required and nothing else may be mapped at that
location anyway.
This is different from (but doesn't preclude) a full blown VDSO
implementation, however a VDSO would prevent some assembly tricks with
constants that allows for efficient branching to those code segments.
And since those code segments only use a few cycles before returning to
user code, the overhead of a VDSO far call would add a significant
overhead to such minimalistic operations.
The ARM_NR_set_tls syscall also changed number.  This is done for two
reasons:
1) this patch changes the way the TLS value was previously meant to be
   retrieved, therefore we ensure whatever library using the old way
   gets fixed (they only exist in private tree at the moment since the
   NPTL work is still progressing).
2) the previous number was allocated in a range causing an undefined
   instruction trap on kernels not supporting that syscall and it was
   determined that allocating it in a range returning -ENOSYS would be
   much nicer for libraries trying to determine if the feature is
   present or not.

      [PATCH] ARM: 2655/1: ARM1136 SWP instruction abort handler fix · 3a1e5015
      由 George G. Davis 提交于 
      Patch from George G. Davis

As noted in http://www.arm.com/linux/patch-2.6.9-arm1.gz, the "Faulty SWP instruction on 1136 doesn't set bit 11 in DFSR." So the v6_early_abort handler does not report the correct rd/wr direction for the SWP instruction which may result in SEGVS or hangs. In order to work around this problem, this patch merely updates the fix contained in the ARM Ltd. patch to use the macroised abort handler fixups.

      [PATCH] ARM: 2659/1: do not assign PCI I/O address zero on IXP2000 · 458a83fa
      由 Lennert Buytenhek 提交于 
      Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

Assigning the address zero to a PCI device BAR causes some part of the
PCI subsystem to believe that resource allocation for that BAR failed
due to resource conflicts, which will make attempts to enable the
device fail.  Work around this by assigning I/O addresses starting
from 00010000.
While we're at it, make the PCI I/O resource end at 0001ffff, since we
only have 64k of outbound I/O window on the IXP2000, and we don't do
bank switching.

      [PATCH] ARM: 2658/1: start ixp2000 pci memory resource at 0xe0000000 · ae36bf58
      由 Lennert Buytenhek 提交于 
      Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

On the IXDP2800, the bootloader does an awful job of configuring
the PCI bus, so we make linux reconfigure everything.  Having a 1:1
pci:phys address mapping generally simplifies everything, so try to
allocate PCI addresses from the [e0000000..ffffffff] range, which is
the physical address range of the outbound PCI window on the IXP2000.
This does not affect any of the other IXP2000 platforms since they
all use their bootloader's PCI resource assignment.
