Arnd Bergmann 1cb1e35327 char/genrtc: remove alpha support
The genrtc driver serves no purpose on Alpha because it drives the
same hardware as the original rtc.c driver, and the newer rtc-generic.c
or rtc-cmos.c drivers on architectures that use the asm-generic/rtc.h
header.

The defconfig uses CONFIG_RTC=y, so this driver is not used by default.
At one point it was used to abstract a quirk for the "Marvel" platform,
but it does not do this any more after the code was moved into yet
another driver in arch/alpha/kernel/rtc.c.

Julia Lawall cc9a2c8301 arch/alpha/kernel: Add kmalloc NULL tests
Check that the result of kmalloc is not NULL before passing it to other
functions.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:

Ivan Kokshaysky d68721eb33 alpha: AGP update (fixes compile failure)
This brings Alpha AGP platforms in sync with the change to struct
agp_memory (unsigned long *memory => struct page **pages).

Only compile tested (I don't have titan/marvel hardware), but this change
looks pretty straightforward, so hopefully it's ok.

Ivan Kokshaysky 5f7dc5d750 alpha: fix RTC on marvel
Unlike other alphas, marvel doesn't have real PC-style CMOS clock hardware
- RTC accesses are emulated via PAL calls.  Unfortunately, for unknown
reason these calls work only on CPU #0.  So current implementation for
arbitrary CPU makes CMOS_READ/WRITE to be executed on CPU #0 via IPI.
However, for obvious reason this doesn't work with standard
get/set_rtc_time() functions, where a bunch of CMOS accesses is done with
disabled interrupts.

Solved by making the IPI calls for entire get/set_rtc_time() functions,
not for individual CMOS accesses.  Which is also a lot more effective
performance-wise.

The patch is largely based on the code from Jay Estabrook.
My changes:
- tweak asm-generic/rtc.h by adding a couple of #defines to
  avoid a massive code duplication in arch/alpha/include/asm/rtc.h;
- sys_marvel.c: fix get/set_rtc_time() return values (Jay's FIXMEs).

NOTE: this fixes *only* LIB_RTC drivers.  Legacy (CONFIG_RTC) driver
wont't work on marvel.  Actually I think that we should just disable
CONFIG_RTC on alpha (maybe in 2.6.30?), like most other arches - AFAIK,
all modern distributions use LIB_RTC anyway.

Harvey Harrison bbb8d343af alpha: remove remaining __FUNCTION__ occurrences
__FUNCTION__ is gcc-specific, use __func__

The change in pci-iommu,c should be safe as arena has not been assigned
when we get to this point.

Some were within #if 0 blocks, have changed them and left the blocks
as they appear to be debugging infrastructure.

A #define FN __FUNCTION__ was removed and occurances of FN were replaced
with __func__ as well.

Jay Estabrook 025a22151c ALPHA: support graphics on non-zero PCI domains
This code replaces earlier and incomplete handling of graphics on non-zero PCI
domains (aka hoses or peer PCI buses).

An option (CONFIG_VGA_HOSE) is set TRUE if configuring a GENERIC kernel, or a
kernel for MARVEL, TITAN, or TSUNAMI machines, as these are the machines whose
SRM consoles are capable of configuring and handling graphics options on
non-zero hoses.  All other machines have the option set FALSE.

A routine, "find_console_vga_hose()", is used to find the graphics device
which the machine's firmware believes is the console device, and it sets a
global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device.  This is
called in "init_arch" on TITAN and TSUNAMI machines; MARVEL machines use a
custom version of this routine because of extra complexity.

A routine, "locate_and_init_vga()", is used to find the graphics device and
set a global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device, in
the case where "find_console_vga_hose" has failed.

Various adjustments are made to the ioremap and ioportmap routines for
detecting and translating "legacy" VGA register and memory references to the
real PCI domain.

OGAWA Hirofumi 9b41046cd0 [PATCH] Don't pass boot parameters to argv_init[]
The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and
parse_args(,unknown_bootoption).

And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup().

	start_kernel()
		-> parse_args()
			-> unknown_bootoption()
				-> obsolete_checksetup()

If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in
obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was
handled.

If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other
->setup_func().  If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0,
a parameter is seted to argv_init[].

Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app.
If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.

This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
