  • Current status of APUS:
    - arch/powerpc/: removed in 2.6.23
    - arch/ppc/: marked BROKEN since 2 years

    This therefore removes the remaining parts of APUS support from
    arch/ppc, include/asm-ppc, arch/powerpc and include/asm-powerpc.

  • This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32
    bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds
    some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with
    support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same
    clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency.

    Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits
    returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever
    add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't
    have to change.

    I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and
    ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a
    64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was
    tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions.

  • This also creates merged versions of do_init_bootmem, paging_init
    and mem_init and moves them to arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c. It gets rid
    of the mem_pieces stuff.

    I made memory_limit a parameter to lmb_enforce_memory_limit rather
    than a global referenced by that function. This will require some
    small changes to ppc64 if we want to continue building ARCH=ppc64
    using the merged lmb.c.

  • 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!
