2010-02-22resource/PCI: mark struct resource as constDominik Brodowski1-1/+1
Now that we return the new resource start position, there is no need to update "struct resource" inside the align function. Therefore, mark the struct resource as const.

The 'outer_cache' variable is needed by the outer_inv_range(), outer_clean_range() and outer_flush_range() functions, which are declared as inline in asm/cacheflush.h.

2010-02-15ARM: 5880/1: arm: use generic infrastructure for early paramsJeremy Kerr2-50/+16
The ARM setup code includes its own parser for early params, there's also one in the generic init code. This patch removes __early_init (and related code) from arch/arm/kernel/setup.c, and changes users to the generic early_init macro instead. The generic macro takes a char * argument, rather than char **, so we need to update the parser functions a little.

ARMv6 architectures that have the performance counters should enable HW_PERF_EVENTS to get hardware performance events support in addition to the software events.

2010-01-18ARM: 5883/1: Revert "disable NX support for OABI-supporting kernels"Rabin Vincent1-9/+0
This reverts commit 14f0aa359365e8a93a77b71e3b840274b9b4dcb1. That commit was needed earlier because system call restarting for OABI (compat) required an executable stack and thus had problems with NX. Since ab72b00734ae4d0b ("ARM: Fix signal restart issues with NX and OABI compat") has reworked the code to not require an executable stack anymore, we can re-enable NX support for kernels with OABI (compat) support.

2009-12-15ARM: unexport symbols used to implement floating point emulationAlan Jenkins1-20/+0
The Kconfigs for in-tree floating point emulation do not allow building as modules. That leaves the Acorn FPEmulator module. I found two public releases of this as a binary module for 2.1 and 2.2 kernels, optimized for ARMV4.[1] If there is a resurgence of interest in this, the symbols can always be re-exported. This allows the EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALIAS() hack to be removed. The ulterior motive here is that EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALIAS() makes it harder to sort the resulting kernel symbol tables. Sorted symbol tables will allow faster symbol resolution during module loading. Note that fp_send_sigs() and fp_printk() are simply aliases for existing exports and add no obvious value. Similarly fp_enter could easily be renamed to kern_fp_enter at the point of definition. Therefore removing EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALIAS will not serve as a material obstacle to re-adding the exports should they be desired in future. Build tested only.

2009-12-15ARM: use unified discard definition in linker scriptAlan Jenkins1-5/+8
Commit 023bf6f "linker script: unify usage of discard definition" changed the linker scripts for all architectures except for ARM. I can find no discussion about this ommision, so here are the changes for ARM. These changes are exactly parallel to the ia64 case. "ia64 is notable because it first throws away some ia64 specific subsections and then include the rest of the sections into the final image, so those sections must be discarded before the inclusion." Not boot-tested. In build testing, the modified linker script generated an identical vmlinux file. [I would like to be able to rely on this unified discard definition. I want to sort the kernel symbol tables to allow faster symbol resolution during module loading. The simplest way appears to be to generate sorted versions from vmlinux.o, link them in to vmlinux, _and discard the original unsorted tables_. This work is driven by my x86 netbook, but it is implemented at a generic level. It is possible it will benefit some ARM systems also.] Signed-off-by: Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Acked-by-without-testing: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2009-11-23ARM: 5793/1: ARM: Check put_user fail in do_signal when enable OABI_COMPATJean PIHET1-2/+6
Using OABI, the call to put_user in do_signal can fail causing the calling app to hang. The solution is to check if put_user fails and force the app to seg fault in that case. Tested with multiple sleeping apps/threads (using the nanosleep syscall) and suspend/resume.

2009-11-18sysctl: Drop & in front of every proc_handler.Eric W. Biederman1-3/+3
For consistency drop & in front of every proc_handler. Explicity taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.

2009-11-17Merge commit 'v2.6.32-rc7'Eric W. Biederman4-6/+11
Resolve the conflict between v2.6.32-rc7 where dn_def_dev_handler gets a small bug fix and the sysctl tree where I am removing all sysctl strategy routines.
2009-11-12sysctl arm: Remove binary sysctl supportEric W. Biederman1-8/+3
Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys .ctl_name and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code. Remove them. Remove a smattering of ctl_names used in sysctl paths, and kill the ctl_names in the recently added mach-bcmring. mach-bcmring never should have had sysctl entries with .ctl_name set. The binary sysctl interface has been frozen for a long time before that code was merged, to prevent probmes with conflicts and lack of testing. The sysctl_check code would have caught this if anyone had ever tested it that way. So I have simply dropped the binary sysctl support instead of adding another compat entry into sysctl_binary.c. Going through /proc/sys/reboot/warm will still work. Cc: Leo Chen <leochen@broadcom.com> Cc: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
