Even after the previous fix you can still set CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT
indirectly even without CONFIG_ACPI by choosing CONFIG_PCI and
CONFIG_PCI_MMCONFIG.That doesn't build very well either.
This makes PCI_MMCONFIG depend on ACPI, fixing that hole.
[ I guess in theory Kconfig could follow the whole chain of dependencies
for things that get selected, but that sounds insanely complicated, so
we'll just fix up these things by hand. --Linus ]Signed-off-by: Alexander Nyberg

For quite a while, there has existed a hypervisor bug on legacy iSeries
which means that we do not get the boot time set in the kernel. This
patch works around that bug. This was most noticable when the root
partition needed to be checked at every boot as the kernel thought it
was some time in 1905 until user mode reset the time correctly.Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds -
On PPC64, we keep track of when we need to update jiffies (and the
variables used to calculate the time of day) based on the time base.If the time base frequence is sufficiently high compared to the
processor clock frequency, then it is possible for the time of day
variables to be corrupted at the time of the first decrementer interrupt
we take. This became obvious on a legacy iSeries where the time base
frequency is the same as the processor clock.This one line patch fixes the initialisation so that the time of day
variables and the indicator we use to tell when updates are due are
better synchronised.Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell

Older UltraSPARC-III chips have a P-Cache bug that makes us disable it
by default at boot time.However, this does hurt performance substantially, particularly with
memcpy(), and the bug is _incredibly_ obscure. I have never seen it
triggered in practice, ever.So provide a "-P" boot option that forces the P-Cache on. It taints
the kernel, so if it does trigger and cause some data corruption or
OOPS, we will find out in the logs that this option was on when it
happened.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

The hardware sync of the timebase on SMP G5s uses a black magic
incantation to the i2c clock chip that was inspired from what Darwin
does.However, this was an earlier version of Darwin that was ... buggy !
heh. This causes the latest models to break though when starting SMP,
so it's worth fixing.Here's a new version of the incantation based on careful transcription
of the said incantations as found in the latest version of apple's
temple.Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

The latest speedbumped Apple G5 models have a "bug" in the Open Firmware
device tree that lacks the proper interrupt routing information for the
northbridge i2c controller. Apple's driver silently falls back into a
sub-optimal "polled" mode (heh, maybe they didn't even notice the bug
because of that :), our driver didn't properly check and crashes :(This patch fixes our driver to not crash, and adds code to the
prom_init() OF trampoline code that detects the "bug" and adds the
missing information back for this chipset revision. This fixes booting
and thermal control on these models.Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

The test case at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/posixtest/posixtestsuite/conforman
ce/interfaces/clock_nanosleep/1-5.c fails if it runs as a 32bit process on
x86_86 machines.The root cause is the sub 32bit process fails to restart the syscall after it
is interrupted by a signal.The syscall number of sys_restart_syscall in table sys_call_table is
__NR_restart_syscall (219) while it's __NR_ia32_restart_syscall
(0) in ia32_sys_call_table. When regs->rax==(unsigned
long)-ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK, function do_signal doesn't distinguish if
the process is 64bit or 32bit, and always sets restart syscall number
as __NR_restart_syscall (219).Signed-off-by: Zhang Yanmin

Caused oopses again. Also fix potential mismatch in checking if

Byte-swapping of the port and IP address passed in to the multicast driver by
the user used to happen in different places, which was a bug in itself. The

The recent change to add a timeout to strbuf flushing had
a negative performance impact. The udelay()'s are too long,
and they were done in the wrong order wrt. the register read
checks. Fix both, and things are happy again.There are more possible improvements in this area. In fact,
PCI streaming buffer flushing seems to be part of the bottleneck
in network receive performance on my SunBlade1000 box.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

On ppc32, the platform code can supply a "progress" function that is
used to show progress through the boot. These functions are usually
in an init section and so can't be called after the init pages are
freed. Now that the cpu bringup code can be called after the system
is booted (for hotplug cpu) we can get the situation where the
progress function can be called after boot. The simple fix is to set
the progress function pointer to NULL when the init pages are freed,
and that is what this patch does (note that all callers already check
whether the function pointer is NULL before trying to call it).Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras
