2014-07-18ARM: convert all "mov.* pc, reg" to "bx reg" for ARMv6+Russell King
ARMv6 and greater introduced a new instruction ("bx") which can be used to return from function calls. Recent CPUs perform better when the "bx lr" instruction is used rather than the "mov pc, lr" instruction, and this sequence is strongly recommended to be used by the ARM architecture manual (section A.4.1.1). We provide a new macro "ret" with all its variants for the condition code which will resolve to the appropriate instruction. Rather than doing this piecemeal, and miss some instances, change all the "mov pc" instances to use the new macro, with the exception of the "movs" instruction and the kprobes code. This allows us to detect the "mov pc, lr" case and fix it up - and also gives us the possibility of deploying this for other registers depending on the CPU selection.

2011-12-13ARM: 7207/1: Use generic ARM instruction set condition code checks for nwfpe.Leif Lindholm
This patch changes the nwfpe implementation to use the new generic ARM instruction set condition code checks, rather than a local implementation. It also removes the existing condition code checking, which has been used for the generic support (in kernel/opcodes.{ch}). This code has not been tested beyond building, linking and booting.

2006-06-22[ARM] Add thread_notify infrastructureRussell King
Some machine classes need to allow VFP support to be built into the kernel, but still allow the kernel to run even though VFP isn't present. Unfortunately, the kernel hard-codes VFP instructions into the thread switch, which prevents this being run-time selectable. Solve this by introducing a notifier which things such as VFP can hook into to be informed of events which affect the VFP subsystem (eg, creation and destruction of threads, switches between threads.)

Patch from Lennert Buytenhek nwfpe extended precision emulation used to be broken on big-endian and was therefore disabled. This patch fixes nwfpe so that it copies extended precision floats to/from userspace in the proper word order (similar to patch #2046, see the description of that patch for an explanation) and reenables the Kconfig option.

2005-11-07[ARM] 3117/1: nwfpe kernel memory info leakLennert Buytenhek
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek The routine that nwfpe uses for converting floats/doubles to extended precision fails to zero two bytes of kernel stack. This is not immediately obvious, as the floatx80 structure has 16 bits of implicit padding (by design.) These two bytes are copied to userspace when an stfe is emulated, causing a possible info leak. Make the padding explicit and zero it out in the relevant places. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@wantstofly.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

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!
