[IA64] sysctl option to silence unaligned trap warnings

2006-02-28T17:42:23Z

Allow sysadmin to disable all warnings about userland apps making unaligned accesses by using: # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ignore-unaligned-usertrap Rather than having to use prctl on a process by process basis. Default behaivour leaves the warnings enabled. Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen Signed-off-by: Tony Luck

[IA64] die_if_kernel() can return

2006-02-28T00:18:58Z

arch/ia64/kernel/unaligned.c erroneously marked die_if_kernel() with a "noreturn" attribute ... which is silly (it returns whenever the argument regs say that the fault happened in user mode, as one might expect given the "if_kernel" part of its name!). Thanks to Alan and Gareth for pointing this out. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36Z

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!
