Folks

The fifth set of updates to the STLinux Distribution 2.0 are now
available.

We recommend that you use stmyum to download and install these
updates. For more information on configuring stmyum, please see:
   http://www.stlinux.com/docs/manual/install/yum.php

If this is the first time you have used stmyum since installing it
from the CD images, we recommend that you first use stmyum to upgrade
itself, before upgrading any target packages.

Alternatively the can be downloaded from our FTP servers as normal:

Inside the ST firewall:

ftp://linux.bri.st.com/pub/stlinux/2.0/ST_Linux_2.0/RPM_Distribution/sh4-updates
and:

ftp://linux.bri.st.com/pub/stlinux/2.0/ST_Linux_2.0/RPM_Distribution/st231-updates

Customers and those outside the ST firewall:

ftp://ftp.stlinux.com/pub/stlinux/2.0/ST_Linux_2.0/RPM_Distribution/sh4-updates
and:

ftp://ftp.stlinux.com/pub/stlinux/2.0/ST_Linux_2.0/RPM_Distribution/st231-updates

After the required packages have been downloaded, they can be installed
using the
command:
   rpm -Uhv <rpm_files>

 New features:
 - 7109 onboard MAC ethernet driver
 - added nwhwconf MAC address setting support for SMSC 911x (bugzilla 453)
 - stpio driver irq functionality has been enhanced with addition of
   stpio_enable_irq and stpio_disable_irq function calls.  Documentation
   for IRQ functions has been updated (bugzilla 432).
   Marek Skuczynski has also contributed stpio_request_pin_set()
   functionality and a new /proc interface (bugzilla 230)
 - the Plan 1 bigphysarea debug patch has been added (bugzilla 402)
 - fixes for some time related problems:
    1. fix an underflow in __const_udelay() (bugzilla 471 (SMSC and fast
HZ))
    2. fix an overflow in gettimeofday()
    3. fix an inaccuracy in gettimeofday() when timer wraps
    4. fix another cornercase in gettimeofday()
 - kernel source package rebased against kernel.org 2.6.11 tree
 - kernel.org 2.6.11.12 updates added
 - a number of new features have also been added:
    1. co-processor support has been updated to use the Linux kernel 2.6
       firmware loading mechanism.  This requires the hotplug package.
    2. support for 4kB stacks (split 4kB kernel and interrupt stack)
    3. new atomics mechanism based on SH glibc gUSA method
    4. a driver for the ST I2C real time clock m41st85y IC
    5. Improved I2C EEPROM driver from lm_sensors project
   These depend on
        Code maturity level options->
        Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers
   kernel configuration
 - A number of ALSA enhancements on the STx7100:
   1. add PCM0 I2S-IEC60958 converter functionality to enable HDMI audio
      over the PCM0 player.
   2. add IEC60958 (SPDIF pcm) formattting for bitstreams.
   3. add proper setup for IEC60958 of the oversampling frequency of
      the protocol converter and SPDIF ALSA devices. Also adds a number of
      ALSA_CTL bitwitches to allow correct setup of IEC60958 stream
      control words
 - A few STx7100 SATA updates
   1. Add recording and reporting of SATA errors (under sysctl control)
   2. Support for scatter/gather at the driver level. Use the DMAC
      linked list support if it has it, or fall back to a software
      interrupt which reprograms the DMAC after every node.
   3. Remove work-around for bug in glue logic which only allows 32-bit
      accesses on hardware which doesn't require it.
 - Added extra interrupts for 7109 cut 2.
 - LTT enhancements to record interrupt entry/exit and kernel thread
   creation.

 Bug fixes:
 - ALSA problem on mb392 (8k) platform has been fixed
 - Removed debugging printk from cache flushing code
 - Fixed makefile problem that broke u-boot kernel builds
 - Fix an error check in SMSC911x driver which could prevent it using DMA
   with a non-standard FDMA configuration.
 - Fix a couple of spinlock mismatches in FDMA driver
 - Fix a possible race condition in the PIO-DMA IDE driver
 - Fix problem with gUSA sequences and CONFIG_PREEMPT.
 - Read back INTC, INTC2 and HARP EPLD registers after writing them to
   avoid a write posting problem which could cause interrupt reentrancy.
 Kernel has been tested using LTP.
