[RFC: 2.6 patch] remove some unused IDE stuff

This patch removes some dead IDE-related #define's and
"static inline" functions.

Please double-check it since I've only tested it with grep and didn't 
try compilation.

I think the include/asm-m68knommu/ide.h should just be removed
altogether. None of the underlying code support for it has been
carried into 2.6, so it is pretty much useless.

Greg

Invitation to the Oldenburg Linux Developers Meeting

Dear developers,

there will be another Linux developers meeting taking place in
Oldenburg at the last weekend in September this year.  Like last year,
we will be able to start on Wednesday and work until Sunday.  So
diligent people can work up to four days in Oldenburg.

Executive summary:

URL:   http://meeting.ffis.de/Oldenburg2005/
What:  Oldenburg Linux Developers Meeting #A
Who:   Every developer interested in Linux on non-i386 platforms
       Every developer interested in developing the debian-installer
       Every developer interested in Debian-Java
When:  September, 21st to 25th (Wednesday noon to Sunday afternoon)
Where: University of Oldenburg, science building in Oldenburg Wechloy
Orga:  ffis e.V., Martin 'Joey' Schulze
Bonus: Regular rooms again, at least partially

The goal of this developers meeting is to provide developers a means
to work in common on the non-i386 Linux ports and related topics and
to further the exchange of ideas and discussion about these ports.
However, Debian developers and Debian Java people have asked whether
they can piggy-back a meeting at the same location as well.

We will have dedicated working and sleeping rooms in the university.
We are allowed to use the shower facility of the sports department
nearby where we can sleep as well this year.

We will have dinner together in a restaurant in the evening.  I'll put

glibc binary NMU for hppa, built with gcc-3.4

Following the discussion on parisc, I uploaded glibc built with
gcc-3.4. Validated, that gcc-4.0 bootstraps again and the python build
errors are gone.

Please make this change for the next sourceful upload.

Does this fix GCC PR 23731?

can't check, it currently segfaults trying to generate the

I suspect that there are still glibc issues.

With 2.3.2.ds1-22, I don't see anywhere this number of fails:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2005-09/msg00946.html.
>From testing with 4.1, I know that the SyncTest and Thread_Monitor
can be fixed by adding locking to the pa compare_and_swap
implementation for java.  This is important on SMP systems.

I made a couple of changes to libjava on head which fixed problems
with java exception handling on the pa:

Bug#329888: [parisc-linux] binutils breaks hppa kernel build, bad operands of fic, m

binutils-2.15 has this in include/opcodes/hppa.h:
{ "fdc",        0x04001280, 0xfc003fdf, "cZx(s,b)", pa10, 0},
{ "fdc",        0x04001280, 0xfc003fdf, "cZx(b)", pa10, 0},
{ "fic",        0x04000280, 0xfc001fdf, "cZx(S,b)", pa10, 0},
{ "fic",        0x04000280, 0xfc001fdf, "cZx(b)", pa10, 0},

And the binutils_2.16.1cvs20050902 version has only:
{ "fdc",        0x04001280, 0xfc00ffdf, "cZx(b)", pa10, 0},
{ "fdc",        0x04001280, 0xfc003fdf, "cZx(s,b)", pa10, 0},
{ "fic",        0x04000280, 0xfc001fdf, "cZx(S,b)", pa10, 0},

The order of the with 's' vs without 's' was switched and
in the process dropped one "fic" line.

Can binutils maintainer/folks please just add it back
in the new location?

Is the fix obvious enough or is a patch necessary?

thanks,
grant

You are right - debian has a stale include file.
The picked up this version of the opcode/hppa.h file:
http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/include/opcode/hppa.h.diff?r1=1.55&r2=1.56&cvsroot=src&f=h

Debian needs to pick up the TOB opcode/hppa.h and life will be good again.

thanks,
