Hello list,
In our old, modified 2.4.25 I had a statement that sets the bit BSDIS
(real world bit 16, Freescale bit 15) in the XLB config register for
the MPC5200B.
Checking the XLB config of my 2.6.32-rc7 doesn't show this bit set
(XLB config reads 0xa006).
But this gives me trouble when
The patch adds the ability for powerpc architecture to set page cache
property of mmaped area through device tree. This is useful for two
cases. First, for memory shared with other OS'es to have the same cache
property to avoid cache paradoxes. Second, enabling application to map

The scenario for the first case is that in a multicore system running

This isn't true.

The hotplug mediabay has tendrils deep into drivers/ide code
which makes a libata port reather difficult. In addition it's
ugly and could be done better.
This reworks the interface between the mediabay and the rest

In libata-sff, ata_sff_post_internal_cmd() directly calls ata_bmdma_stop()
