IPR RAID arrays show up on a virtual scsi bus, with a scsi bus number
of 255, which is generated by the adapter microcode. For the initial
scan of the host, we manually scan this bus since it does not obey
SAM in regards to sparse LUNs and the disk array devices do not have
a consistent product id to use scsi core's blacklist. If /proc/scsi/scsi
or sysfs is used to delete one of these devices, the device will not
be able to get added back by rescanning the host since scsi core
will see ipr's max_channel as 4, rather than 255. Update max_channel
after the initial scan so that ipr raid arrays can get re-added
if they get deleted.

This patch started life as a response to fedora specific ide subsystem changes
that made error handling of my ATAPI tape drive fail; the specifics are in

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160868

The insertion of the statement rq->errors = err; near the end of
ide_end_drive_cmd() in drivers/ide/ide-io.c means that rq->errors does not
contain what it needs to in idescsi_end_request() in drivers/scsi/ide-scsi.c
anymore. Recent mainline kernels now also have this change.

There's an oops that sometimes shows up with SCSI transport classes in
sysfs_hash_and_remove.  The problem is that now, because of the class to
device and vice versa symlinks, all classes have to be removed from
visibility *before* the device is removed from visibility.

The transport class trigger points violate this, so bring them back into
conformance.

my patch "x86: initialise tss->io_bitmap_owner to something" (commit ID
d5cd4aad) introduced a problem with a
program (DOSEMU) that called ioperm after already doing some port i/o.

The problem is that a process switch return causes tss->io_bitmap_base
to be set to IO_BITMAP_OFFSET so that the fault (that *really* sets the
io bitmap) never triggers.

This fixes that regression.

Some visually impaired people use hardware devices which directly read
the vga screen. When newt for instance asks to hide the cursor for
better visual aspect, the kernel puts the vga cursor out of the screen,
so that the cursor position can't be read by the hardware device. This
is a great loss for such people.

Here is a patch which uses the same technique as CUR_NONE for hiding the
cursor while still moving it.

Mario, you should apply it to the speakup kernel for access floppies
asap. I'll submit a 2.4 patch too.

Adds a phy_mask field to struct mii_bus and uses it.  This field
indicates each phy address to be ignored when probing the mdio bus.

This support is needed for the fs_enet and ibm_emac drivers to be
converted to the generic phy layer among other drivers. Many systems
lock up on probing certain phy addresses or probing doesn't return
0xffff when nothing is found at the address. A new driver I'm
working on also makes use of this mask.

This patch is a better fix for Allied Telesyn 2700/2701 FX boards than
the change made in early January this year.  It allows the user to
select the speed/duplex via module_param, but if no selection is made,
forces the speed to 100 FD.  It fixes both Bugzilla bugs 2669 and 4551.

Hi,
This patch  provides dynamic two buffer-mode and 3 buffer-mode options.
Previously 2 buffer-mode was compilation option. Now with this patch applied
one can load driver in 2 buffer-mode with module-load parameter

ie.
#insmod s2io.ko rx_ring_mode=2

This patch also provides 3 buffer-mode which provides header separation
functionality. In 3 buffer-mode skb->data will have L2/L3/L4 headers and
"skb_shinfo(skb)->frag_list->data" will have have L4 payload.
one can load driver in 3 buffer-mode with same above module-load parameter

ie.
#insmod s2io.ko rx_ring_mode=3

Currently the driver takes a reference only for requests coming by way
of the gendisk, not for requests coming by way of the struct device or
struct scsi_device.  Such requests can arrive in the rescan, flush,
and shutdown pathways.

The patch also makes the scsi_disk keep a reference to the underlying
scsi_device, and it erases the scsi_device's pointer to the scsi_disk
when the scsi_device is removed (since the pointer should no longer be
used).

This resolves Bugzilla entry #5237.

Use ata_pad_{alloc,free} in two drivers, to factor out common code.

Add ata_pad_{alloc,free} to two other drivers, which needed the padding
but had not been updated.

This adds support for the Nvidia Geforce 7800 series of cards to the
nvidiafb framebuffer driver.  All it does is add the PCI device id for
the 7800, 7800 GTX, 7800 GO, and 7800 GTX GO cards to the module device
table for the nvidiafb.ko driver, so that nvidiafb.ko will actually work
on these cards.

I also added the relevant PCI device ids to linux/pci_ids.h

I tested it on my 7800 GTX here and it works like a charm.  I now can
get framebuffer support on this card! Woo hoo!! Nothing like 200x75 text
mode to make your eyes BLEED.  ;)
