2007-05-08Documentation/i386/boot.txt: update and correctH. Peter Anvin
In the process of rewriting the x86 setup code, I found a number of inaccuracies and outdated recommendations in the boot protocol documentation. Revamp to make it more up to date. In particular, the common use of the heap actually requires (slightly) more than 4K of heap plus stack, which is the recommended amount in the document; currently the code compensates by being smaller than specified, but we can't assume that will be true forever. Thus, recommend that if we have a modern bzImage kernel, that the bootloader maximizes the available space. Signed-off-by: H.

2007-05-08FRV: Miscellaneous fixesDavid Howells
Miscellaneous fixes to bring FRV up to date: (1) Copy the new syscall numbers from i386 to asm-frv/unistd.h and fill out the syscall table in entry.S too. (2) Mark __frv_uart0 and __frv_uart1 __pminitdata rather than __initdata so that determine_clocks() can access them when CONFIG_PM=y. (3) Make arch/frv/mm/elf-fdpic.c include asm/mman.h so that MAP_FIXED is available (fixes commit 2fd3bebaad9da3b3b99c46a3389099424bf7ee35).

2007-05-08Revert "fbdev: ignore VESA modes if framebuffer is disabled"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 464bdd33e9baad9806c7adbd8dfc37081a55f27e. Peter Anvin correctly points out that VESA modes have nothing to do with frame buffers per se - they are often just regular extended text modes. Disabling them just because we don't have frame buffer support is very wrong. Cc: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Cc: Antonino A.

2007-05-08[SPARC64] PCI: Use root list of pbm's instead of pci_controller_info'sDavid S. Miller
The idea is to move more and more things into the pbm, with the eventual goal of eliminating the pci_controller_info entirely as there really isn't any need for it. This stage of the transformations requires some reworking of the PCI error interrupt handling. It might be tricky to get rid of the pci_controller_info parenting for a few reasons: 1) When we get an uncorrectable or correctable error we want to interrogate the IOMMU and streaming cache of both PBMs for error status. These errors come from the UPA front-end which is shared between the two PBM PCI bus segments. Historically speaking this is why I choose the datastructure hierarchy of pci_controller_info-->pci_pbm_info 2) The probing does a portid/devhandle match to look for the 'other' pbm, but this is entirely an artifact and can be eliminated trivially. What we could do to solve #1 is to have a "buddy" pointer from one pbm to another. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-05-08mmc: use lock instead of claim in debug checkPierre Ossman
