* x86_64: Geode HW Random Number Generator depends on X86_32Yinghai Lu2007-07-211-1/+1

* x86_64: Untangle asm/hpet.h from asm/timex.hChris Wright2007-07-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When making changes to x86_64 timers, I noticed that touching hpet.h triggered an unreasonably large rebuild. Untangling it from timex.h quiets the extra rebuild quite a bit.

* zs: move to the serial subsystemMaciej W. Rozycki2007-07-182-100/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a reimplementation of the zs driver for the serial subsystem. Any resemblance to the old driver is purely coincidential. ;-) I do hope I got the handling of modem lines right -- better do not tackle me about the issue unless you feel too good... Any users of the old driver: please note the numbers of the serial lines have now been swapped, i.e. ttyS0 <-> ttyS1 and ttyS2 <-> ttyS3. It has to do with the modem lines mentioned above; basically the port A in a given chip has to be initialised before the port B if you want to use the latter as the serial console (which is usually the case), as operations on modem lines of the serial line associated with the port B access both ports (see the comment at the top of the driver for the details of wiring used). Please update your scripts. This is also the reason each SCC now requests an IRQ once only (as seen in "/proc/interrupts") -- the handler takes care of both ports at once as the line associated with the port B has to take status update interrupts from both ports (and yet the line of the port A takes its own for itself too). The old driver never got it right... Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

* | Fix the graphic corruption issue on IA64 machinesizumi2007-07-171-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | VGA console driver can misunderstand the current mode(Text/Graphic) under "disable console blanking" setting. When "disable console blank" is set (blankinterval=0), "do_unblank_screen()" function returns without changing "blank_state", and when "blank_state" is "blank_off", "do_blank_screen() function returns without invoking sw->con_blank() function. That's why VGA console driver can misunderstand the current mode. Signed-off-by: Nobuhiro Tachino <ntachino@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Taku Izumi <izumi2005@soft.fujitsu.com> Cc: "Antonino A.

* | fbcon: allow fbcon to use the primary display driverAntonino A. Daplas2007-07-171-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow fbcon to select the primary display adapter using the fb_is_primary_device() arch-specific helper. If a a primary adapter is detected, fbcon will unbind the old adapter from the VT layer, then rebind using the new adapter. This requires that bind_/unbind_con_driver() be made public. Because this feature may produce unexpected behavior (from the user's POV), this must be explicitly enabled in Kconfig.

Remove spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore from __stli_sendcmd as all users of that function take the lock already.
