  • c6387a48c   [SPARC]: Kill __irq_itoa(). ... Browse Code »

    This ugly hack was long overdue to die.

    It was a way to print out Sparc interrupts in a more freindly format,
    since IRQ numbers were arbitrary opaque 32-bit integers which vectored
    into PIL levels. These 32-bit integers were not necessarily in the
    0-->NR_IRQS range, but the PILs they vectored to were.

    The idea now is that we will increase NR_IRQS a little bit and use a
    virtualreal IRQ number mapping scheme similar to PowerPC.

    That makes this IRQ printing hack irrelevant, and furthermore only a
    handful of drivers actually used __irq_itoa() making it even less
    useful.

    We had similar problems with other ioctls where userspace did things
    like that. What we did there was to put the compat handler to generic
    code. The patch below does that, adding a big comment about what's
    going on and removing the COMPAT_IOCTL entires for these on powerpc
    that not only weren't ever useful but are duplicated now aswell.

  • 6044ec888   [PATCH] kfree cleanup: misc remaining drivers ... Browse Code »

    This is the remaining misc drivers/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch.

    Remove pointless checks for NULL prior to calling kfree() in misc files in
    drivers/.

  • ef0299bf8   [PATCH] mostek bogus sparse annotations fixed ... Browse Code »

    void * __iomem foo is not a pointer to iomem - it's an iomem variable
    containing void *. A pile of such guys in arch/sparc64/kernel/time.c,
    drivers/sbus/char/rtc.c and include/asm-sparc64/mostek.h turned into
    intended void __iomem *.

  • b4bca26c0   [SPARC]: Provide generic ioctls in Sparc RTC driver. ... Browse Code »

    Provide support for drivers/char/rtc.c ioctls in the
    Mostek rtc driver as well as the Sparc specific RTCGET
    and RTCSET.

    This allows userspace to be much less messy. Currently
    util-linux and other spots jump through hoops trying
    various ioctl variants until it hits the right one whatever
    driver actually being used supports.

    Eventually all of this should move over to the genrtc.c
    driver, but not today...

    While we are here, fix up the register types for sparse.

    Thanks to Frans Pop for helping point out this issue.

    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!
