| * kconfig: refer to qt3 if we cannot find qt librariesSam Ravnborg2007-05-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We do not support qt4 (yet) so the simple fix was to warn that qt3 are missing. The better fix would have been to implment qt4 support but that has failed so far. This solves http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8277 Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
| * kbuild: handle compressed cpio initramfs-esAlex Landau2007-05-021-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make kbuild handle compressed cpio initramfs-es. An already compressed cpio is copied directly to usr/, while a non-compressed cpio is filtered through gzip (no changes here) on its way to usr/. If the user has created a compressed cpio by other means, this saves him from uncompressing it, just to be compressed again by kbuild.

| * kbuild/mkuboot.sh: allow spaces in CROSS_COMPILEUwe kleine-König2007-05-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I'm currently using CROSS_COMPILE="ccache arm-linux-". With that the bash builtin command "type" searches for ccache and arm-linux-mkimage and so sets MKIMAGE="/path/to/ccache" as I don't have arm-linux-mkimage. Then the script dies with an error, that ccache doesn't support the argument -A. This patch adds some quoting such that it works again for me. Please note that this patch doesn't help you if you use ${CROSSCOMPILE}-mkimage and ccache as mkuboot.sh now searches for the command "ccache arm-linux-mkimage".

| * kbuild: override build timestamp & versionSam Ravnborg2007-05-021-7/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION to make it possible to override kernel build version during build time. Introduce KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP to make it possible to override kernel build timestamp during build time. But variables are useful mainly by distros that want to pass info from an SCM when building the kernel. Timestamp could be last checkin date for a file etc. The idea came from Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> Cc: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
| * kconfig.debug: clarify CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO help textAndreas Dilger2007-05-021-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch adds some extra clarification to the CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO Kconfig help text. The current text is mostly a recursive definition and doesn't really say much of anything. When I first read this I thought it was going to enable extra verbosity in debug messages or something, but it is only enabling the "gcc -g" compile option in the Makefile.

| * kbuild: complain about missing system callsSam Ravnborg2007-05-023-0/+130
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled. On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings: init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This script is a companion to the "cleanfile" script. This cleans up a patch in unified diff format *before* it is applied. Note that the empty lines at the end of file detection *requires* that the diff was taken with at least one line of context around each hunk, or bad things will happen. This script cleans up various classes of stealth whitespace. In particular, it cleans up: - Whitespace (spaces or tabs)before newline; - DOS line endings (CR before LF); - Space before tab (spaces are deleted or converted to tabs); - Empty lines at end of file.

| * | KVM: Remove extraneous guest entry on mmio readAvi Kivity2007-05-032-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When emulating an mmio read, we actually emulate twice: once to determine the physical address of the mmio, and, after we've exited to userspace to get the mmio value, we emulate again to place the value in the result register and update any flags. But we don't really need to enter the guest again for that, only to take an immediate vmexit. So, if we detect that we're doing an mmio read, emulate a single instruction before entering the guest again. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We only have to save/restore MSR_GS_BASE on every VMEXIT. The rest can be saved/restored when we leave the VCPU. Since we don't emulate the DEBUGCTL MSRs and the guest cannot write to them, we don't have to worry about saving/restoring them at all. This shaves a whopping 40% off raw vmexit costs on AMD.

| * | KVM: Handle guest page faults when emulating mmioAvi Kivity2007-05-031-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Usually, guest page faults are detected by the kvm page fault handler, which detects if they are shadow faults, mmio faults, pagetable faults, or normal guest page faults. However, in ceratin circumstances, we can detect a page fault much later. One of these events is the following combination: - A two memory operand instruction (e.g. movsb) is executed. - The first operand is in mmio space (which is the fault reported to kvm) - The second operand is in an ummaped address (e.g. a guest page fault) The Windows 2000 installer does such an access, an promptly hangs. Fix by adding the missing page fault injection on that path. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
