3c5846470c [PATCH] x86_64: x86_64-enable-large-bzImage.patch
enable large bzImages on x86_64. (fix is from x86's build.c) Using this
patch i have successfully built and booted an allyesconfig 13MB+ bzImage
on x86_64 too:

89ec4c238e [PATCH] vesafb: Fix incorrect logo colors in x86_64
Bugzilla Bug 6299:

A pixel size of 8 bits produces wrong logo colors in x86_64.

The driver has 2 methods for setting the color map, using the protected
mode interface provided by the video BIOS and directly writing to the VGA
registers.  The former is not supported in x86_64 and the latter is enabled
only in i386.

Fix by enabling the latter method in x86_64 only if supported by the BIOS.
If both methods are unsupported, change the visual of vesafb to
STATIC_PSEUDOCOLOR.

841b8a46bf [PATCH] x86: "make isoimage" support; FDINITRD= support; minor cleanups
Add a "make isoimage" to i386 and x86-64, which allows the automatic
creation of a bootable CD image.  It also adds an option FDINITRD= to
include an initrd of the user's choice in generated floppy- or CD boot
images.  Finally, some minor cleanups of the image generation code.

0d20babd86 kbuild: drop vmlinux dependency from "make install"
This removes the dependency from vmlinux to install, thus avoiding the
current situation where "make install" has a nasty tendency to leave
root-turds in the working directory.

It also updates x86-64 to be in sync with i386.

Remove some of the unnecessary differences between arch/i386 and
arch/x86_64.  This patch fixes more whitespace issues, some miscellaneous
typos, a wrong URL and a factually incorrect statement about the current

d0537508a9 [PATCH] kexec: x86_64: add CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START
For one kernel to report a crash another kernel has created we need
to have 2 kernels loaded simultaneously in memory.  To accomplish this
the two kernels need to built to run at different physical addresses.

This patch adds the CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START option to the x86_64 kernel
so we can do just that.  You need to know what you are doing and
the ramifications are before changing this value, and most users
won't care so I have made it depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED

bzImage kernels will work and run at a different address when compiled
with this option but they will still load at 1MB.  If you need a kernel
loaded at a different address as well you need to boot a vmlinux.

0f8e2d62fa [PATCH] use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh
The attached patch causes the various arch specific install.sh scripts to
look for ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel rather than just installkernel (in
both /sbin/ and ~/bin/ where the script already did this).  This allows you
to have e.g.  arm-linux-installkernel as a handy way to install on your
cross target.  It also prevents the script picking up on the host
/sbin/installkernel which causes the script to fall through and do the
install itself (which is what I actually use myself, with $INSTALL_PATH
set).

I don't believe it causes back-compatibility problems since calling the
host installkernel was never likely to work or be what you wanted when
cross compiling anyway.  If $CROSS_COMPILE isn't set then nothing changes.

I only use ARM and i386 myself but I figured it couldn't hurt to do the
whole lot.  I've cc'd those who I hope are the arch maintainers for files
that I've touched.

When I do a "diff -Nur arch/i386 arch/x86_64" to see what is different between these two
architectures, I see some differences due to whitespace issues only. The attached patch removes
some of the noise by fixing up the following files:
- arch/i386/boot/bootsect.S
- arch/i386/boot/video.S
- arch/x86_64/boot/bootsect.S

f9ba70535d [PATCH] Increase number of e820 entries hard limit from 32 to 128
The specifications that talk about E820 map doesn't have an upper limit on
the number of e820 entries.  But, today's kernel has a hard limit of 32.
With increase in memory size, we are seeing the number of E820 entries
reaching close to 32.  Patch below bumps the number upto 128.

The patch changes the location of EDDBUF in zero-page (as it comes after E820).
As, EDDBUF is not used by boot loaders, this patch should not have any effect
on bootloader-setup code interface.

Patch covers both i386 and x86-64.

Tested on:
* grub booting bzImage
* lilo booting bzImage with EDID info enabled
* pxeboot of bzImage

Side-effect:
bss increases by ~ 2K and init.data increases by ~7.5K
on all systems, due to increase in size of static arrays.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
