2007-04-24[POWERPC] Emulate more instructions in softwareAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli
Emulate a few more instructions in software - especially useful during singlestepping (xmon/kprobes). Instructions emulated with this patch are mfcr/mtcr rX, mfxer/mtxer rX, mflr/mtlr rX, mfctr/mtctr rX and mr rA,rB.

2006-11-01[POWERPC] Disallow kprobes on emulate_step and branch_takenGui,Jian
On powerpc, probing on emulate_step function will crash 2.6.18.1 when it is triggered. When kprobe is triggered, emulate_step() is on its kernel path and will cause recursive kprobe fault. And branch_taken() is called in emulate_step(). This disallows kprobes on both of them. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2005-10-28powerpc: Make single-stepping emulation (mostly) usable on 32-bitPaul Mackerras
The sc instruction emulation can't be done the same way on 32-bit as 64-bit yet, but this should work OK. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2005-09-26powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc.Paul Mackerras
This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm, arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac. This is enough to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc. For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc. The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting.
