2013-02-27mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on parisc architectureMichel Lespinasse
Update the parisc arch_get_unmapped_area function to make use of vm_unmapped_area() instead of implementing a brute force search.

2013-02-20parisc: fix fallocate syscallHelge Deller
fallocate(off_t) gets redirected by glibc to fallocate64(loff_t) where the 64bit loff_t values get splitted into two 32bit (hi/lo) values. This patch fixes this syscall for the 32- and 64bit kernel. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

This turns out to be correct and we need to pay attention to the pgoff as well as the address when creating the virtual address for the area. Fortunately, the bug is rarely triggered as most applications which use pgoff tend to use large values (git being the primary one, and it uses pgoff in multiples of 16MB) which are larger than our cache coherency modulus, so the problem isn't often seen in practise.

2012-08-03[PARISC] fix personality flag check in copy_thread()Jiri Kosina
Directly comparing task_struct->personality against PER_* is not fully correct, as it doesn't take flags potentially stored in top three bytes into account. Analogically, directly forcefully setting personality to PER_LINUX32 or PER_LINUX discards any flags stored in the top three bytes.

2010-03-12improve sys_newuname() for compat architecturesChristoph Hellwig
On an architecture that supports 32-bit compat we need to override the reported machine in uname with the 32-bit value. Instead of doing this separately in every architecture introduce a COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE define in <asm/compat.h> and apply it directly in sys_newuname().

2008-05-03unified (weak) sys_pipe implementationUlrich Drepper
This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with one unified implementation. This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated code. It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers) I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL isn't needed. The arch maintainer can easily do it if there are really no obstacles. Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-05-07get_unmapped_area handles MAP_FIXED on pariscBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Handle MAP_FIXED in parisc arch_get_unmapped_area(), just return the address. We might want to also check for possible cache aliasing issues now that we get called in that case (like ARM or MIPS), leave a comment for the maintainers to pick up.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
