M68k tree updates

M68k tree updates

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

It took me a while, but finally I managed to update
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/geert/linux-m68k.git again.

I added the following to master (the main development branch):

Andreas Schwab (2):
      m68k: use generic code for ptrace requests
      m68k: ptrace fixes

Geert Uytterhoeven (5):
      rtc: Add an RTC driver for the Oki MSM6242
      rtc: Add an RTC driver for the Ricoh RP5C01
      kgdb: Replace strstr() by strchr() for single-character needles
      net: ETHOC should depend on HAS_DMA
      dvb: SMS_SIANO_MDTV should depend on HAS_DMA

John Kacur (1):
      m68k: Remove the BKL from sys_execve

Krzysztof Helt (1):
      fbdev: atafb - add palette register check

Roel Kluin (1):
      m68k: parport_mfc3 - Not makes it a bool before the comparison.

Stephen Rothwell (1):
      m68k: don't export static inline functions

Tim Abbott (2):
      m68k: Make thread_info.h usable from assembly.
      m68k: Cleanup linker scripts using new linker script macros.


I added the following to for-next (aka for-2.6.33, to submit when the merge
window for 2.6.33 opens):

Andreas Schwab (2):
      m68k: use generic code for ptrace requests
      m68k: ptrace fixes

Geert Uytterhoeven (2):
      rtc: Add an RTC driver for the Oki MSM6242
      rtc: Add an RTC driver for the Ricoh RP5C01

John Kacur (1):
      m68k: Remove the BKL from sys_execve

Krzysztof Helt (1):
      fbdev: atafb - add palette register check

Roel Kluin (1):
      m68k: parport_mfc3 - Not makes it a bool before the comparison.

Stephen Rothwell (1):
      m68k: don't export static inline functions

Tim Abbott (2):
      m68k: Make thread_info.h usable from assembly.
      m68k: Cleanup linker scripts using new linker script macros.


I haven't updated m68k-queue (the branch with clean m68k changes w.r.t.
Linus' tree) yet.

If anything is missing, please tell me. Thx!

How about the NPTL patch (0001-Add-NPTL-support-for-m68k.patch,
http://marc.info/?l=linux-m68k&m=125447760017098&w=2)?

Also, this trivial fix (0004-Fix-m68k-s-asm-swab.h-for-ColdFire.patch, 
http://marc.info/?l=linux-m68k&m=125447494213740&w=2) can go in.

Thanks!

As you're adding syscalls (which are shared with m68knommu), I'll have
to ask whether
you will make it work on nommu, too?

Furthermore, when building for Sun3:

arch/m68k/kernel/sys_m68k.c:706: warning: passing argument 1 of
'kunmap' from incompatible pointer type
arch/m68k/kernel/sys_m68k.c:714: warning: passing argument 1 of
'kunmap' from incompatible pointer type

Which looks like a problem with the Sun 3 version of pte_unmap().

I'm gonna add it to the m68k tree though, unless someone complains.

I want to run this one by the nommu people as well...

Yes, that's quite straight-forward so I'll try to post the patch tomorrow.

Right.  Sun3's implementation assumes that one can cast between (pte_t 
*) and pgtable_t interchangeably; fwiw, I don't know if this is the case.

Thanks!

To illustrate the problem more clearly, here is the code that the patch 
fixes:

#if defined (__mcfisaaplus__) || defined (__mcfisac__)
static inline __attribute_const__ __u32 __arch_swab32(__u32 val)
{
	__asm__("byterev %0" : "=d" (val) : "0" (val));
	return val;
}

#define __arch_swab32 __arch_swab32
#elif !defined(__uClinux__)

static inline __attribute_const__ __u32 __arch_swab32(__u32 val)
{
	__asm__("rolw #8,%0; swap %0; rolw #8,%0" : "=d" (val) : "0" (val));
	return val;
}
#define __arch_swab32 __arch_swab32
#endif

As far as I know, all non-ColdFire CPUs support rolw instruction, so 
enabling it for uClinux should not be a problem.  Regarding the ColdFire 
  CPUs, none of the CF ISAs include rolw, so the patch fixes the case of 
building the kernel for MMU Linux ISA_B CPU, e.g., mcf547x/8x family.

I almost forgot about these two patches:

0001-Define-sigcontext-ABI-of-ColdFire.patch
0002-Fix-m68k-uclinux-s-rt_sigreturn-trampoline.patch

The first patch makes `struct sigcontext' compatible with ColdFire and 
fixes the rt_sigreturn trampoline for ColdFire.  The second patch fixes 
a typo in m68knommu code for rt_sigreturn trampoline.

Both patches are attached to this message 
http://marc.info/?l=linux-m68k&m=125365546306821&w=2 .

I'll appreciate merging these patches to master if it's not too late.

Thanks,

That patch looks good to me.
