Hello All,
I created a very simple program which has higher priority than normal
tasks and runs a tight loop. Under same test environment I ran this
program on both non-rt and rt 2.6.33.5 kernel. To my suprise I see that
performance of non-RT kernel is better than RT. non-RT kernel took 3 sec

When looking at some issues with the virtual ethernet driver I noticed
that TCE allocation was following a very strange pattern:

address 0409000 length 2048 <-
address 0429000 length 2048
address 0449000 length 2048
address 0469000 length 2048

While testing CPU DLPAR, the following problem was discovered.
We were DLPAR removing the first CPU, which in this case was
logical CPUs 0-3. CPUs 0-2 were already marked offline and
we were in the process of offlining CPU 3. After marking
the CPU inactive and offline in cpu_disable, but before th
Marvell and GPIO bindings live in their own files, so the TOC should not
mention them.
Also fix chapters numbering.

Also, when I try to export a gpio in sysfs
echo 9 > /sys/class/gpio/export
It gives me an error in dmesg
gpio_request: gpio-9 (sysfs) status -22
export_store: status -22
Here is a look of sysfs on my machine
# ls /sys/class/gpio/ -la
drwxr-xr-x4 root root0 Jan 1 00:00 .

u can directly access GPIO registers in kernel, by ioremap of GPIO
memory mapped registers.
you might need to check

Hi,
I am new to device driver development. I am trying to access the GPIO of
MPC837xERDB eval board. I have upgraded its kernel to linux-2.6.28.9 and
enable support for mpc8xxx_gpio.c. On boot up, it successfully detect two
gpio controllers. Now my question is how I am going to use it to communica

Hi,
I am new to linux device driver development and I'm trying to learn the
DMA transfer. Currently I have created a DMA buffer using
pci_alloc_consistent() function. Since I don't have a real DMA enabled pci
device, so I am thinking of transfer the data in the DMA buffer to some
other buffer wit
