  • Converts the list and the core manipulating with it to be the same as uc_list.

    +uses two functions for adding/removing mc address (normal and "global"
    variant) instead of a function parameter.
    +removes dev_mcast.c completely.
    +exposes netdev_hw_addr_list_* macros along with __hw_addr_* functions for
    manipulation with lists on a sandbox (used in bonding and 80211 drivers)

  • It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
    remove it. The number of people that could object because they're
    maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

  • This is a set of changes to add TURBOchannel support to the defxx driver. As
    at this point the EISA support in the driver has become the only not having
    been converted to the driver model, I took the opportunity to convert it as
    well. Plus support for MMIO in addition to PIO operation as TURBOchannel
    requires it anyway.

  • The PDQ DMA engine requires a different byte-swapping mode for big-endian
    hosts; also the MAC address which is read from a register through PIO has
    to be byte-swapped. These changes have been verified with DEFPA-DC (PCI)
    boards and a Broadcom BCM91250A (MIPS CPU based) host.

  • Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
    of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
    Linux kernel.

    The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
    space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
    from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
    (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

    Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
    something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
    maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
    handling.

    Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
    through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
    device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
    interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
    device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
    layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

    I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
    main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
    I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
    with minimal configurations.

    This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
    Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

    struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

    And put the old one back at the end:

    set_irq_regs(old_regs);

    Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

    In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

    - update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
    - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
    + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
    + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

    I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
    except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

    Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

    (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
    the input_dev struct.

    (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
    something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
    pointer or not.

    (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
    irq_handler_t.

  • This is a fix for the interrupt handler in the defxx driver to use
    irqreturn_t. Beside the obvious fix of returning a proper status at all,
    it actually checks board registers as appropriate for determining if an
    interrupt has been recorded in the bus-specific interface logic.

    The patch also includes an obvious one-line fix for SET_NETDEV_DEV needed
    for the EISA variation, for which I've decided there is no point in sending
    separately.

  • 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!
