Anton Blanchard	f50734569c	[PATCH] ppc64: allow timer based profiling on iseries ... We used to have an iseries specific profiler that used /proc/profile. Now thats gone we can use the generic timer based stuff.

Stephen Rothwell	8f80e5c911	[PATCH] ppc64: fix initialisation of gettimeofday calculations ... On PPC64, we keep track of when we need to update jiffies (and the variables used to calculate the time of day) based on the time base. If the time base frequence is sufficiently high compared to the processor clock frequency, then it is possible for the time of day variables to be corrupted at the time of the first decrementer interrupt we take. This became obvious on a legacy iSeries where the time base frequency is the same as the processor clock. This one line patch fixes the initialisation so that the time of day variables and the indicator we use to tell when updates are due are better synchronised.

Anton Blanchard	0d8d4d42f2	[PATCH] ppc64: use smp_mb and smp_wmb ... Use smp_mb and smp_wmb. In particular smp_wmb is lighter weight than wmb. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	1da177e4c3	Linux-2.6.12-rc2 ... 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!	20 years ago
