  • Not really sure where this bogosity came from, but there's certainly
    nothing special about sh that lets us use flat files with the MMU on.

    Kill the dependency, and leave it as !MMU, like it is for all of the
    other nommu-wielding ports.

  • This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
    currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
    (Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
    avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
    BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards.

    The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
    Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
    December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
    processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
    orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC
    (Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
    single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
    instruction-set architecture.

    The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
    ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
    http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf

    The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
    there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
    http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
    documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
    http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
    patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
    bfin-linux-uclibc

    This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
    uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
    http://blackfin.uclinux.org/

    We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
    be found at:
    http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel

  • Add CONFIG_X86_32 for i386. This allows selecting options that only apply
    to 32-bit systems.

    (X86 && !X86_64) becomes X86_32
    (X86 || X86_64) becomes X86

  • 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!
