      [POWERPC] Change rheap functions to use ulongs instead of pointers · 4c35630c
      Timur Tabi 提交于
      The rheap allocation functions return a pointer, but the actual value is based
      on how the heap was initialized, and so it can be anything, e.g. an offset
      into a buffer.  A ulong is a better representation of the value returned by
      the allocation functions.
      
      This patch changes all of the relevant rheap functions to use a unsigned long
      integers instead of a pointer.  In case of an error, the value returned is
      a negative error code that has been cast to an unsigned long.  The caller can
      use the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro to check for this.
      
      All code which calls the rheap functions is updated accordingly.  Macros
      IS_MURAM_ERR() and IS_DPERR(), have been deleted in favor of IS_ERR_VALUE().
      
      Also added error checking to rh_attach_region().

      [PATCH] genirq: rename desc->handler to desc->chip · d1bef4ed
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
      various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
      functionality.
      
      While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
      generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
      smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
      the new 'irq chip' abstraction.
      
      The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
      driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
      straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
      (level/edge/etc.) type of details.
      
      This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
      architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
      The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
      converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.
      
      As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
      (master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.
      
      The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
      and more consolidation between architectures.
      
      We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
      layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.
      
      This patch:
      
      rename desc->handler to desc->chip.
      
      Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch.  But having
      both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
      large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
      truly is.
      
      I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
      desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
      frequently.
      
      So lets get over with this quickly.  The conversion was done automatically
      via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.
      
      This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
      remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
      without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

      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!
