Greetings all, I have two boards that are very similar. They base on IBM750cx/cxe processor and XPC107A bridge/memory controller. Both are initialized in the same manner (the same bootloader). One of them has IBM750cx 400MHz (PVR: 0x0008 2214) on that one everything works fine. The other one

[PATCH][PPC32] Fix SPE state corruption on e500

2004-12-14 Thread Kumar Gala
Linus, Unfortunately the restoring of SPE state was causing data corruption since we were restoring based on the size of the altivec context and not the SPE context. Also, fixed setting of last_task_used_spe on start_thread, flush_thread, and exit_thread. Patch should go in for 2.6.10.
