In a fit of stupidity I worked on porting OCaml to PPC64:
http://git.infradead.org/?p=users/dwmw2/ocaml-ppc64.git
It seems to work fine, mostly -- but when building large programs such
as CIL I found that I overflow the TOC -- I'm using more than 64KiB. An
example of this problem is at htt

Hi folks
The attached patch changes the powerpc main Makefile from using the override
make directive to KBUILD_CFLAGS and similar.
The override approach breaks with both variants "CC=gcc-4.3 make" and
"make CC=gcc-4.3". The first ignores the given value completely because
the toplevel Makefile in

That doesn't look possible, which is weird... looks like we are passing
0 to clean_dcache_range().

This patch fixes several section mismatch warnings in the
ibm_newemac driver similar to:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.devinit.text+0x3a04): Section mismatch in reference from
the function emac_probe() to the function .devexit.text:tah_detach()
The function __devinit emac_probe() references

No need to undef it, it's undefined by default. Otherwise the patch
looks fine to me.

The PMU backlight code would kick in during sleep/resume even on
machines that use a different backlight method. This appears to
break sleep on my PowerBook, though I can't test that patch at
the moment as the machine died while I was bisecting.
So if anybody around has one of those latest revisio
