  • Fix ver_linux glibc version printing (for real this time)

    Alexey Dobriyan reported that commit
    4a645d5ea65baaa5736bcb566673bf4a351b2ad8
    broke ver_linux when glibc has a 3 digit
    version number, and proposed a patch.
    Al Viro then suggested a simpler way to
    solve the problem which I've then simply
    put into patch form.

  • Currently, if you call scripts/gcc-version.sh without arguments it will
    generate this output :

    $ sh scripts/gcc-version.sh
    scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 12: [: =: unary operator expected
    scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 16: -E: command not found
    scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 17: -E: command not found
    0000

    Not too pretty. I believe this is an improvement :

    $ sh scripts/gcc-version.sh
    Error: No compiler specified.
    Usage:
    scripts/gcc-version.sh

  • At the moment, running `make clean` in an external module directory does a
    nice job of cleaning up with one exception: it leaves behind Modules.symvers.
    Attached patch adds this file to the clean list for external modules.

  • Fix modpost segfault.

    Before:
    -------
    ynezz@ntbk:~/linux-2.6.git$ scripts/mod/modpost vmlinux ath_pci.o
    Segmentation fault

    After:
    ------
    ynezz@ntbk:~/linux-2.6.git$ scripts/mod/modpost vmlinux ath_pci.o
    FATAL: section header offset=815726848 in file 'ath_pci.o' is bigger then filesize=153968

    Sam: This seems to warn for a binutils issue. Anyway modpost should not
    segfault.

  • cygwin provides the header file but the lib file needs
    to be added manually. A generic fix is to check if
    we can compile and link a program that uses gettext()
    and if it fails fall back to NO_NLS.

  • Currently find_legacy_serial_ports() can find no serial ports on the
    OPB with flattened device tree. Thus no legacy boot console can be
    initialized. Just the early udbg console works, which is initialized
    with udbg_init_44x_as1 on the UART's physical address specified in
    kernel config. This happens because we look for ns16750 serial
    devices only and expect opb node to have a device type property. This
    patch makes it look for ns16550-compatible devices and use
    of_device_is_compatible() for opb in case device type is not
    specified.

  • This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for
    user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them
    (currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).

    We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
    ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.

    We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
    that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
    unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That
    would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
    keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)
    and is not addressed here.

    Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt.
