f400e198b2 [PATCH] pidspace: is_init()
This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280).  It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().

Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.

Eric's original description:

	There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
	because we give it special properties.  Most  significantly init
	must not die.  This results in code all over the kernel test
	->pid == 1.

	Introduce is_init to capture this case.

	With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
	looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
	process that has pid == 1.

This patch removes all self references and fixes references to files

a7fdd90bc4 [PATCH] ppc: Remove powermac support from ARCH=ppc
This makes it possible to build kernels for PReP and/or CHRP
with ARCH=ppc by removing the (non-building) powermac support.
It's now also possible to select PReP and CHRP independently.
Powermac users should now build with ARCH=powerpc instead of
ARCH=ppc.  (This does mean that it is no longer possible to
build a 32-bit kernel for a G5.)

25c8a78b1e [PATCH] powerpc: Fix handling of fpscr on 64-bit
The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y.  FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.

The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU.  However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit.  This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.

While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S.  The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.

Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.

Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
longer do.

This patches the ppc32 and ppc64 versions of the headers and .c files
with helper functions for manipulating the performance counting
hardware.  As a side effect, it removes use of the term "perfmon" from
ppc32, thus avoiding confusion with the unrelated performance counter
interface from HP Labs also called "perfmon".

Built, but not booted, for g5, pSeries, iSeries, and 32-bit Powermac
with both ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc{,64} as appropriate.

fd582ec88e ppc: Various minor compile fixes
This fixes up a variety of minor problems in compiling with ARCH=ppc
arising from using the merged versions of various header files.
A lot of the changes are just adding #include <asm/machdep.h> to
files that use ppc_md or smp_ops_t.

This also arranges for us to use semaphore.c, vecemu.c, vector.S and
fpu.S from arch/powerpc/kernel when compiling with ARCH=ppc.

bb0bb3b659 [PATCH] ppc32: Kill init on unhandled synchronous signals
This is a patch that I have had in my tree for ages.  If init causes
an exception that raises a signal, such as a SIGSEGV, SIGILL or
SIGFPE, and it hasn't registered a handler for it, we don't deliver
the signal, since init doesn't get any signals that it doesn't have a
handler for.  But that means that we just return to userland and
generate the same exception again immediately.  With this patch we
print a message and kill init in this situation.

This is very useful when you have a bug in the kernel that means that
init doesn't get as far as executing its first instruction. :)
Without this patch the system hangs when it gets to starting the
userland init; with it you at least get a message giving you a clue
about what has gone wrong.

a2f40ccd29 [PATCH] ppc32: Added support for the Book-E style Watchdog Timer
PowerPC 40x and Book-E processors support a watchdog timer at the processor
core level.  The timer has implementation dependent timeout frequencies
that can be configured by software.

One the first Watchdog timeout we get a critical exception.  It is left to
board specific code to determine what should happen at this point.  If
nothing is done and another timeout period expires the processor may
attempt to reset the machine.

Command line parameters:
  wdt=0 : disable watchdog (default)
  wdt=1 : enable watchdog

  wdt_period=N : N sets the value of the Watchdog Timer Period.

  The Watchdog Timer Period meaning is implementation specific. Check
  User Manual for the processor for more details.

This patch is based off of work done by Takeharu Kato.

few cases that are true for all Freescale Book-E parts, not just e500.

92b4dc1625 [PATCH] ppc32: Simplified load string emulation error checking
The error checking for emulation of load string instructions was overly
generous and would cause certain valid forms of the instructions to be
treated as illegal.  We drop the range checking since the architecture
allows this to be boundedly undefined.  Tests on CPUs that support these
instructions appear not do cause illegal instruction traps on range errors
and just allow the execution to occur.

Thanks to Kim Phillips for debugging this and figuring out what real HW was
doing.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
