[POWERPC] Move of_platform_driver initialisations: arch/powerpc

2007-10-11T10:40:49Z

We no longer initialise the name and owner fields of the of_platform_driver, but use the fields of the embedded device_driver's name field instead. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell Acked-by: Olof Johansson Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

[POWERPC] axonram: Do not delete gendisks queue in error path

2007-08-25T06:58:27Z

On exit do not delete gendisk's queue because this is already done by del_gendisk(). Doing it twice may cause memory damage. Signed-off-by: Maximilian Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

[POWERPC] axonram: Module modification for latest firmware API changes

2007-08-25T06:58:27Z

Firmware would not deliver two interrupt numbers in device-tree any more but only one, for correctable ECC, because uncorrectable ECC from now is handled by firmware itself. Changes in the axonram module are necessary because in the old version, if it is not allowed to fetch the second interrupt number from device-tree, it interpretes this as an error case and exits.

[CELL] driver for DDR2 memory on AXON

2007-07-20T19:41:42Z

The Axon bridge chip used on new Cell/B.E. based blade servers comes with a DDR2 memory controller that can be used to attach cheap memory modules, as opposed to the high-speed XDR memory that is used by the CPU itself. Since the memory controller does not participate in the cache coherency protocol, we can not use the memory direcly for Linux applications, but by providing a block device it can be used for swap space, temporary file storage and through the use of the direct_access block device operation for mapping into user addresses, when it is mounted with an appropriate file system.
