Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-17
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

It would be nice to have the missing syscalls on Alpha wired up to bring it
up to date with the other architectures. It was unfortunate that the patch
sent upstream to achieve this was missed during the 2.6.32 development
window and didn't get merged by Linus unto 2.6.33.

I attach the patch patch-alpha-wire-up-syscalls.txt that wires up the
missing syscalls on the Alpha architecture and brings it up to date with the
other architectures.  This patch is a modification of the upstream commits
6e17e8b9fb74b9fb9f6ea331f7f4a049c5b4c4b8 and
21797c599c710d3851d241c4b50690f2482bf618 in that it replaces the recvmmsg
syscall with a placeholder as it is not available in 2.6.32.

As mentioned in bug report #588409 (which is now closed) support for
performance events on Alpha was merged upstream for 2.6.33.  I include here
the patch patch-alpha-implement-sw-perf-events.txt which is a combination of
the upstream commits a582e6f01b90211933e70edcec9bc0bbb1157402 and
fcd14b3203b538dca04a2b065c774c0b57863eec and wires up the performance events
syscall and provides the Alpha specific code to the perf tools.

I have tested both these patches applied to the Debian 2.6.32-17 kernel
source (though I did have to disable the buildcheck.py script as the ABI
didn't match) and it is running successfully on an Alpha PWS600au.

Michael.
