[MIPS] Probe initrd header only if explicitly specified 2008-09-05T20:24:12+00:00 Atsushi Nemoto anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp 2008-08-26T13:34:57+00:00 0011036beeffeada15acd1936d67988de21ca65e Currently init_initrd() probes initrd header at the last page of kernel image, but it is valid only if addinitrd was used. If addinitrd was not used, the area contains garbage so probing there might misdetect initrd header (magic number is not strictly robust). This patch introduces CONFIG_PROBE_INITRD_HEADER to explicitly enable this probing. Signed-off-by: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem() 2008-02-07T16:42:25+00:00 Bernhard Walle bwalle@suse.de 2008-02-07T08:15:17+00:00 72a7fe3967dbf86cb34e24fbf1d957fe24d2f246 This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions between crashkernel area and already used memory. This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().

[MIPS] R4000/R4400 errata workarounds 2008-01-29T10:14:54+00:00 Maciej W. Rozycki macro@linux-mips.org 2007-10-23T11:43:11+00:00 20d60d9973c3b441902b0a3f4f6f7e7ade08f77d This is the gereric part of R4000/R4400 errata workarounds. They include compiler and assembler support as well as some source code modifications to address the problems with some combinations of multiply/divide+shift instructions as well as the daddi and daddiu instructions. Changes included are as follows: 1. New Kconfig options to select workarounds by platforms as necessary. 2. Arch top-level Makefile to pass necessary options to the compiler; also incompatible configurations are detected (-mno-sym32 unsupported as horribly intrusive for little gain). 3. Bug detection updated and shuffled -- the multiply/divide+shift problem is lethal enough that if not worked around it makes the kernel crash in time_init() because of a division by zero; the daddiu erratum might also trigger early potentially, though I have not observed it. On the other hand the daddi detection code requires the exception subsystem to have been initialised (and is there mainly for information). 4. r4k_daddiu_bug() added so that the existence of the erratum can be queried by code at the run time as necessary; useful for generated code like TLB fault and copy/clear page handlers. 5. __udelay() updated as it uses multiplication in inline assembly. Note that -mdaddi requires modified toolchain (which has been maintained by myself and available from my site for ~4years now -- versions covered are GCC 2.95.4 - 4.1.2 and binutils from 2.13 onwards). The -mfix-r4000 and -mfix-r4400 have been standard for a while though. Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
