Hello,
I'm developing software for a custom MPC8377E-based board. I've run
into a strange problem that has me completely stumped and I would be
forever grateful for any suggestions or pointers.
I have a kernel module that basically handles IRQs produced every 1ms
and wakes up any processes that a

Hi,
I'm looking at the simpleImage.XXX make target (PPC 405/440), and it
seems that by default the arch/powerpc/boot/wrapper script places the
bootwrapper at 0x40, effectively setting a limit on the maximum
bootable kernel size.
For various reasons we'd like to be able to put a fairly complet
What would be the earliest Kernel that has full support for 8572 (dual E500
core) ? Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Seems like a reasonable change. CC'ing Vaidy and Gautham to look

These patches implement an extention to the ptrace interface proposed by
Thiago Bauermann and the the PowerPC gdb team.
This is a resubmission of the patches I first sent on December 9th, and
later on January 18th. The biggest change is that I added new config
options to define the debug register
powerpc/booke: Introduce new CONFIG options for advanced debug registers
From: Dave Kleikamp
Introduce new config options to simplify the ifdefs pertaining to the
advanced debug registers for booke and 40x processors:
CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS - boolean: true for dac-based processors
CONFIG_PPC
powerpc: Extended ptrace interface
From: Dave Kleikamp
Based on patches originally written by Torez Smith.
Add a new extended ptrace interface so that user-space has a single
interface for powerpc, without having to know the specific layout
of the debug registers.
Implement:
PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDE

This patch adds additional definitions for BookE Debug Registers
to the reg_booke.h header file.

Last night's build of tip/master on powerpc produced these errors:

Can we have a SoB ?
