      [PATCH] flattened device tree changes · 34153fa3
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      This patch updates the format of the flattened device-tree passed
      between the boot trampoline and the kernel to support a more compact
      representation, for use by embedded systems mostly.

      [PATCH] Four level pagetables for ppc64 · e28f7faf
      David Gibson authored
      Implement 4-level pagetables for ppc64
      
      This patch implements full four-level page tables for ppc64, thereby
      extending the usable user address range to 44 bits (16T).
      
      The patch uses a full page for the tables at the bottom and top level,
      and a quarter page for the intermediate levels.  It uses full 64-bit
      pointers at every level, thus also increasing the addressable range of
      physical memory.  This patch also tweaks the VSID allocation to allow
      matching range for user addresses (this halves the number of available
      contexts) and adds some #if and BUILD_BUG sanity checks.

      [PATCH] ppc64: make arch/ppc64/boot standalone · decd300b
      Olaf Hering authored
      Make the bootheader for ppc64 independent from kernel and libc headers.
      * add -nostdinc -isystem $gccincludes to not include libc headers
      * declare all functions in header files, also the stuff from string.S
      * declare some functions static
      * use stddef.h to get size_t (hopefully ok)
      * remove ppc32-types.h, only elf.h used the __NN types
      
      With further modifications by Paul Mackerras and Stephen Rothwell.

      [TG3]: Fix ethtool loopback test lockup · d4ef1608
      Michael Chan authored
      The tg3_abort_hw() call in tg3_test_loopback() is causing lockups on
      some devices. tg3_abort_hw() disables the memory arbiter, causing
      tg3_reset_hw() to hang when it tries to write the pre-reset signature.
      tg3_abort_hw() should only be called after the pre-reset signature has
      been written. This is all done in tg3_reset_hw() so the tg3_abort_hw()
      call is unnecessary and can be removed.
      
      [ Also bump driver version and release date. -DaveM ]
