03502faa25 remove Documentation/smp.txt
After seeing the filename I'd have expected something about the
implementation of SMP in the Linux kernel - not some notes on kernel
configuration and building trivialities noone would search at this
place.

125e564582 Move Kconfig.instrumentation to arch/Kconfig and init/Kconfig
Move the instrumentation Kconfig to

arch/Kconfig for architecture dependent options
  - oprofile
  - kprobes

and

init/Kconfig for architecture independent options
  - profiling
  - markers

Remove the "Instrumentation Support" menu. Everything moves to "General setup".
Delete the kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation file.

42d4b839c8 Add HAVE_OPROFILE
Linus:
On the per-architecture side, I do think it would be better to *not* have
internal architecture knowledge in a generic file, and as such a line like

        depends on X86_32 || IA64 || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || X86_64 || AVR32

really shouldn't exist in a file like kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation.

It would be much better to do

        depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES

in that generic file, and then architectures that do support it would just
have a

        bool ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
                default y

in *their* architecture files. That would seem to be much more logical,
and is readable both for arch maintainers *and* for people who have no
clue - and don't care - about which architecture is supposed to support
which interface...

Changelog:

Actually, I know I gave this as the magic incantation, but now that I see
it, I realize that I should have told you to just use

        config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
                def_bool y

instead, which is a bit denser.

We seem to use both kinds of syntax for these things, but this is really
what "def_bool" is there for...

Changelog :

- Moving to HAVE_*.
- Add AVR32 oprofile.

09cadedbdc Combine instrumentation menus in kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation
Quoting Randy:

"It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file,
20-something times.  Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into
20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing.

However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make
_one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES,
and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

5ac6da669e [PATCH] Set CONFIG_ZONE_DMA for arches with GENERIC_ISA_DMA
As Andi pointed out: CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA only disables the ISA DMA
channel management.  Other functionality may still expect GFP_DMA to
provide memory below 16M.  So we need to make sure that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is
set independent of CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA.  Undo the modifications to
mm/Kconfig where we made ZONE_DMA dependent on GENERIC_ISA_DMA and set
theses explicitly in each arches Kconfig.

Reviews must occur for each arch in order to determine if ZONE_DMA can be
switched off.  It can only be switched off if we know that all devices
supported by a platform are capable of performing DMA transfers to all of
memory (Some arches already support this: uml, avr32, sh sh64, parisc and
IA64/Altix).

In order to switch ZONE_DMA off conditionally, one would have to establish
a scheme by which one can assure that no drivers are enabled that are only
capable of doing I/O to a part of memory, or one needs to provide an
alternate means of performing an allocation from a specific range of memory
(like provided by alloc_pages_range()) and insure that all drivers use that
call.  In that case the arches alloc_dma_coherent() may need to be modified
to call alloc_pages_range() instead of relying on GFP_DMA.

f0d1b0b30d [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:

	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64

These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

	int do_something(long q)
	{
		...;
		y = ilog2(x)
		...;
	}

Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

	unsigned n = ilog2(27);

When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.

When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

a54123e277 [SPARC]: Try to start getting SMP back into shape.
Todo items:
 - IRQ_INPROGRESS flag - use sparc64 irq buckets, or generic irq_desc?
 - sun4d
 - re-indent large chunks of sun4m_smp.c
 - some places assume sequential cpu numbering (i.e. 0,1 instead of 0,2)

Last I checked (with 2.6.14), random programs segfault with dual
HyperSPARC.  And with SuperSPARC II's, it seems stable but will
eventually die from a write lock error (wrong lock owner or something).

I haven't tried the HyperSPARC + highmem combination recently, so that
may still be a problem.

a08b6b7968 [PATCH] Kconfig fix (BLK_DEV_FD dependencies)
Sanitized and fixed floppy dependencies: split the messy dependencies for
BLK_DEV_FD by introducing a new symbol (ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC), making
BLK_DEV_FD depend on that one and taking declarations of ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC
to arch/*/Kconfig.  While we are at it, fixed several obvious cases when
BLK_DEV_FD should have been excluded (architectures lacking asm/floppy.h
are *not* going to have floppy.c compile, let alone work).

If you can come up with better name for that ("this architecture might
have working PC-compatible floppy disk controller"), you are more than
welcome - just s/ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC/your_prefered_name/g in the patch
below...

Create a new top-level menu named "Networking" thus moving
net related options and protocol selection way from the drivers

To implement this all architectures has to source "net/Kconfig" before

implemented for all architectures.

Device drivers for ordinary NIC's are still to be found
in the Device Drivers section, but Bluetooth, IrDA and ax25
