* [ARM] Fix stacktrace FP range checkingRussell King2007-05-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Fix an oops in the stacktrace code, caused by improper range checking. We subtract 12 off 'fp' before testing to see if it's below the low bound. However, if 'fp' were zero before, it becomes a very large positive number, causing this test to succeed where it should fail. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

* | [ARM] ARMv6: add CPU_HAS_ASID configurationRussell King2007-05-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Presently, we check for the minimum ARM architecture that we're building for to determine whether we need ASID support.

* | move die notifier handling to common codeChristoph Hellwig2007-05-081-7/+7
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

Even in the non-XIP case, the use of (_end - PAGE_OFFSET - 1) is wrong because it produces a too large value if TEXT_OFFSET is larger than 1MB. Finally the original code was performing one loop too many. Let's break the loop when the section pointer has passed the last byte of the kernel instead.

Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update all arch/*/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S to not include space for initramfs when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRAMFS is not selected. This saves another 4 kbytes on most platfoms (some reserve PAGE_SIZE for initramfs).
