a0e60b2033 [PATCH] powerpc: Merge bitops.h
Here's a revised version.  This re-introduces the set_bits() function
from ppc64, which I removed because I thought it was unused (it exists
on no other arch).  In fact it is used in the powermac interrupt code
(but not on pSeries).

- We use LARXL/STCXL macros to generate the right (32 or 64 bit)
  instructions, similar to LDL/STL from ppc_asm.h, used in fpu.S

- ppc32 previously used a full "sync" barrier at the end of
  test_and_*_bit(), whereas ppc64 used an "isync".  The merged version
  uses "isync", since I believe that's sufficient.

- The ppc64 versions of then minix_*() bitmap functions have changed
  semantics.  Previously on ppc64, these functions were big-endian
  (that is bit 0 was the LSB in the first 64-bit, big-endian word).
  On ppc32 (and x86, for that matter, they were little-endian.  As far
  as I can tell, the big-endian usage was simply wrong - I guess
  no-one ever tried to use minixfs on ppc64.

- On ppc32 find_next_bit() and find_next_zero_bit() are no longer
  inline (they were already out-of-line on ppc64).

- For ppc64, sched_find_first_bit() has moved from mmu_context.h to
  the merged bitops.  What it was doing in mmu_context.h in the first
  place, I have no idea.

- The fls() function is now implemented using the cntlzw instruction
  on ppc64, instead of generic_fls(), as it already was on ppc32.

- For ARCH=ppc, this patch requires adding arch/powerpc/lib to the
  arch/ppc/Makefile.  This in turn requires some changes to
  arch/powerpc/lib/Makefile which didn't correctly handle ARCH=ppc.

Built and running on G5.

9e3699ea7b [PATCH] ppc: prevent GCC 4 from generating AltiVec instructions in kernel
Depending on how GCC is built, GCC 4 may generate altivec instructions without
user explicitly requesting vector operations in the code.  Although this is a
performance booster for user applications, it is a problem for kernel.

This patch explicitly instruct GCC to NOT generate altivec instructions while
building the kernel.

Here are some test cases I ran.

(1) build gcc 4.0.1 with '--with-cpu=7450 --enable-altivec
    --enable-cxx-flags=-mcpu=7450', and use this gcc to build kernel WITHOUT
    this kernel patch.  Kernel fail to boot up on a 7450 board because of
    altivec instructions in kernel.

(2) build gcc 4.0.1 with "--with-cpu=7450 --enable-altivec
    --enable-cxx-flags=-mcpu=7450", and use this gcc to build kernel WITH this
    kernel patch.  Kernel boot up on a 7450 board without any problem.

(3) build gcc 4.0.1 with "--with-cpu=750 --enable-cxx-flags=-mcpu=750",
    and use this gcc to build kernel with or without this kernel patch.
    Kernel boot up on a 7450 board without any problem.

This patch should also work with GCC 3 or even earlier GCC 2.95.3.

25635c71e4 ppc: Use the indirect_pci.c from arch/powerpc/sysdev
This defines a CONFIG_INDIRECT_PCI symbol to control whether it
gets used or not, and fixes the Kconfig to select that symbol for
platforms that need it.

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.

5bb7826900 kbuild: rename prepare to archprepare to fix dependency chain
When introducing the generic asm-offsets.h support the dependency
chain for the prepare targets was changed. All build scripts expecting
include/asm/asm-offsets.h to be made when using the prepare target would broke.
With the limited number of prepare targets left in arch Makefiles
the trivial solution was to introduce a new arch specific target: archprepare

The dependency chain looks like this now:

prepare
  |
  +--> prepare0
         |
         +--> archprepare
                |
		+--> scripts_basic
                +--> prepare1
                       |
                       +---> prepare2
                               |
                               +--> prepare3

So prepare 3 is processed before prepare2 etc.
This guaantees that the asm symlink, version.h, scripts_basic
are all updated before archprepare is processed.

prepare0 which build the asm-offsets.h file will need the
actions performed by archprepare.

The head target is now named prepare, because users scripts will most
likely use that target, but prepare-all has been kept for compatibility.
Updated Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt.

45e2a6e4e5 [PATCH] Create include/asm-powerpc
The ppc and ppc64 trees are hopefully going to merge over time, so this
patch begins the process by creating a place for the merging of the
header files.

Create include/asm-powerpc (and move linkage.h into it from
asm-{ppc,ppc64} since we don't like empty directories).  Modify the
ppc and ppc64 Makefiles to cope.

33d9e9b56d [PATCH] ppc32: Add support for Freescale e200 (Book-E) core
The e200 core is a Book-E core (similar to e500) that has a unified L1 cache
and is not cache coherent on the bus.  The e200 core also adds a separate
exception level for debug exceptions.  Part of this patch helps to cleanup a
few cases that are true for all Freescale Book-E parts, not just e500.

443a848cd3 [PATCH] ppc32: refactor FPU exception handling
Moved common FPU exception handling code out of head.S so it can be used by
several of the sub-architectures that might of a full PowerPC FPU.

Also, uses new CONFIG_PPC_FPU define to fix alignment exception handling
for floating point load/store instructions to only occur if we have a
hardware FPU.

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!
