* [PATCH] use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.shIan Campbell2005-06-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The attached patch causes the various arch specific install.sh scripts to look for ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel rather than just installkernel (in both /sbin/ and ~/bin/ where the script already did this). This allows you to have e.g. arm-linux-installkernel as a handy way to install on your cross target. It also prevents the script picking up on the host /sbin/installkernel which causes the script to fall through and do the install itself (which is what I actually use myself, with $INSTALL_PATH set). I don't believe it causes back-compatibility problems since calling the host installkernel was never likely to work or be what you wanted when cross compiling anyway. If $CROSS_COMPILE isn't set then nothing changes. I only use ARM and i386 myself but I figured it couldn't hurt to do the whole lot. I've cc'd those who I hope are the arch maintainers for files that I've touched.

* [PATCH] kbuild: display compile versionCoywolf Qi Hunt2005-06-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | I am always trying to make sure I've booted the right kernel after a new install. Too paranoid maybe. But I guess there're other people like me. So let's make kbuild display the compile version number at the end to give us a hint. I know we may be booting vmlinux someday, but don't care about it for now.

* [PATCH] CodingStyle: trivial whitespace fixupsDomen Puncer2005-05-052-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I do a "diff -Nur arch/i386 arch/x86_64" to see what is different between these two architectures, I see some differences due to whitespace issues only. The attached patch removes some of the noise by fixing up the following files: - arch/i386/boot/bootsect.S - arch/i386/boot/video.S - arch/x86_64/boot/bootsect.S Signed-off-by: Daniel Dickman <didickman@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Domen Puncer <domen@coderock.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] Increase number of e820 entries hard limit from 32 to 128Venkatesh Pallipadi2005-05-011-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The specifications that talk about E820 map doesn't have an upper limit on the number of e820 entries. But, today's kernel has a hard limit of 32. With increase in memory size, we are seeing the number of E820 entries reaching close to 32. Patch below bumps the number upto 128. The patch changes the location of EDDBUF in zero-page (as it comes after E820). As, EDDBUF is not used by boot loaders, this patch should not have any effect on bootloader-setup code interface. Patch covers both i386 and x86-64. Tested on: * grub booting bzImage * lilo booting bzImage with EDID info enabled * pxeboot of bzImage Side-effect: bss increases by ~ 2K and init.data increases by ~7.5K on all systems, due to increase in size of static arrays.

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!
