Hi Linus,
please pull the next set of patches for the parisc architecture for 6.0-rc2.
Some interesting background to the current patchset:
It turned out that the fldw instruction (which loads a 32-bit word from memory
into one half of a FP register) failed on unaligned addresses and even trashed
some other random FP register instead. It's a trivial one-liner fix in the
exception handler but this failure dates back to the very beginnings of the
parisc-port. It's strange that it was never noticed before.
Another patch fixes an annoyance noticed by Randy Dunlap. Running "make
ARCH=parisc64 randconfig" always returned a 32-bit config, although one would
expect a 64-bit config. Masahiro Yamada suggested to mimik sparc Kconfig code,
which fixed the issue nicely. This allowed to drop some compiler build checks
too.
Third, it's possible to build an optimized 32-bit kernel for PA8X00 (64-bit)
CPUs, which then wouldn't start on 32-bit-only (PA1.x) machines. I've added a
bootup check which prevents that and which prints a message to the console.
This can be tested with qemu, which currently only supports 32-bit emulation.
The other patches are usual clean-up stuff like added return value checks and
typo fixes in comments.
Thanks,
Helge
