* [PATCH] dell_rbu: enhancements and fixesAbhay Salunke2005-09-171-97/+154
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | BUG fixes: The driver used to allocate memory with spinlock held which has been fixed in this patch. The driver was printing the entire buffer when it received a invalid entry in image_type. The fix is to only print a warning message and not the buffer. Usability enhancements: It is possible that due to user error the /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu entries might be missing, this can happen if the user does the following echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading This will make the entries in /sys/class/firmware/ to disappear and the only way get them back was bby unloading and loading the driver. This patch makes the user recreate these entries by echoing init in to image_type. This patch has been tested with Libsmbios and Dell OpenManage.

* [PATCH] PCDP: if PCDP contains parity information, use itBjorn Helgaas2005-07-281-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | If the PCDP supplies parity, use it (only none/even/odd supported), and don't append parity/stop bit arguments unless baud is present. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [IA64] Make PCDP work again.David Mosberger-Tang2005-07-131-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | Mark's patch added "attribute((packed))" for pcdp_uart, without accounting for the fact that the structure definition _relied_ on implicit padding by 6 bytes. Fix is to make the padding explicit. Signed-off-by: David Mosberger-Tang <David.Mosberger@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
* [IA64-SGI] pcdp: add PCDP pci interface supportMark Maule2005-06-282-7/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Resend 2 with changes per Bjorn Helgaas comments. Changes from original: + Change globals to vga_console_iobase/vga_console_membase and make them unconditional. + Address style-related comments. Patch to extend the PCDP vga setup code to support PCI io/mem translations for the legacy vga ioport and ram spaces on architectures (e.g. altix) which need them. Summary of the changes: drivers/firmware/pcdp.c drivers/firmware/pcdp.h ----------------------- + add declaration for the spec-defined PCI interface struct (pcdp_if_pci) as well as support macros. + extend setup_vga_console() to know about pcdp_if_pci and add a couple of globals to hold the io and mem translation offsets if present. arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c ------------------------ + tweek early_console_setup() to allow multiple early console setup routines to be called. include/asm-ia64/vga.h ---------------------- + make VGA_MAP_MEM vga_console_membase aware Signed-off-by: Mark Maule <maule@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

* [PATCH] PCDP: handle tables that don't supply baud rateBjorn Helgaas2005-06-232-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The HCDP specs (i.e., PCDP revision < 3) allow zero as a default value for baud rate and data bits. So if firmware doesn't supply them, let early_serial_console_init() probe for them rather than telling it the baud rate is zero. Also, update the URL for the PCDP spec.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-166-0/+1822
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
