From: Doug Thompson <norsk5@xmission.com> This patch set applies to kernel 2.6.17 The following set of quilt patches to EDAC provide various cleanups of the EDAC core and memory controller drivers. Most of which came from Dave Peterson, Dave Jiang and from others. edac-pci_dep.patch Change MC drivers from using CVS revisions strings for their version number, Now each driver has its own local string. Remove PCI dependencies from the core EDAC module. Most of the code changes here are from a patch by Dave Jiang. It may be best to eventually move the PCI-specific code into a separate source file. edac-mc_numbers_1_of_2.patch This is part 1 of a 2-part patch set. The code changes are split into two parts to make the patches more readable. Remove add_mc_to_global_list(). In next patch, this function will be reimplemented with different semantics. edac-mc_numbers_2_of_2.patch This is part 2 of a 2-part patch set. - Reimplement add_mc_to_global_list() with semantics that allow the caller to determine the ID number for a mem_ctl_info structure. Then modify edac_mc_add_mc() so that the caller specifies the ID number for the new mem_ctl_info structure. Platform-specific code should be able to assign the ID numbers in a platform-specific manner. For instance, on Opteron it makes sense to have the ID of the mem_ctl_info structure match the ID of the node that the memory controller belongs to. - Modify callers of edac_mc_add_mc() so they use the new semantics. edac-probe1_cleanup_1_of_2.patch This is part 1 of a 2-part patch set. The code changes are split into two parts to make the patches more readable. Add lower-level functions that handle various parts of the initialization done by the xxx_probe1() functions. Some of the xxx_probe1() functions are much too long and complicated (see "Chapter 5: Functions" in Documentation/CodingStyle). edac-probe1_cleanup_2_of_2.patch This is part 2 of a 2-part patch set. Modify the xxx_probe1() functions so they call the lower-level functions created by the first patch in the set. edac-maintainers.patch Removed Dave Peterson as per his request as maintainer. Add Mark Gross as maintainer for E752X MC driver Signed-off-by: doug thompson <norsk5@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Peterson <dsp@llnl.gov>
