Maneesh Soni d8d4e3ae0b MIPS Kprobes: Refactor branch emulation
This patch refactors MIPS branch emulation code so as to allow skipping
delay slot instruction in case of branch likely instructions when branch is
not taken. This is useful for keeping the code common for use cases like
kprobes where one would like to handle the branch instructions keeping the
delay slot instuction also in picture for branch likely instructions. Also
allow emulation when instruction to be decoded is not at pt_regs->cp0_epc
as in case of kprobes where pt_regs->cp0_epc points to the breakpoint
instruction.

The patch also exports the function for modules.

Al Viro 8f5a00eb42 MIPS: Sanitize restart logics
Put the original syscall number into ->regs[0] when we leave syscall
with error.  Use it in restart logics.  Everything else will have
it 0 since we pass through SAVE_SOME on all the ways in.  Note that
in places like bad_stack and inllegal_syscall we leave it 0 - it's not
restartable.

Atsushi Nemoto eae89076e6 [MIPS] Unify mips_fpu_soft_struct and mips_fpu_hard_structs.
The struct mips_fpu_soft_struct and mips_fpu_hard_struct are
completely same now and the kernel fpu emulator assumes that.  This
patch unifies them to mips_fpu_struct and get rid of mips_fpu_union.

Ralf Baechle ee1cca1b06 [MIPS] Fix branch emulation for floating-point exceptions.
In the branch emulation for floating-point exceptions, __compute_return_epc
must determine for bc1f et al which condition code bit to test. This is
based on bits <4:2> of the rt field. The switch statement to distinguish
bc1f et al needs to use only the two low bits of rt, but the old code tests
on the whole rt field.  This patch masks off the proper bits.

Ralf Baechle 1d74f6bc85 __compute_return_epc() uses CFC1 instruction which might result in a
coprocessor unusable exception since the process can lose its fpu
context by preemption.

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!
