      [PATCH] Make naming of parititions in sysfs match /proc/partitions. · 2ae2199f
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
      
      In fs/partitions/check.c  there are two pieces of code that add a
      partition number to a block-device name:
      
        - the 'disk_name' function
        - a snprintf in add_partitions.
      
      'disk_name' inserts a 'p' before the partition number if the device
      name ends with a digit.  The snprintf in add_partitions doesn't.
      
      This patch rectifies this anomoly so that names in sysfs can be
      parsed more reliably.
      
      
      This has been extensively discussed.  It will probably break the external
      `iostat' tool.  But only for disks whose name ends in a digit, which appears
      to be only DAC960.

      [PATCH] missing `console_driver' with CONFIG_VT && !CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE · 057ee909
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Jun Sun <jsun@mvista.com>
      
      'console_driver' is defined only when CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is set.  However it
      is used by vty_init() which is outside the scope of CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE.

      [PATCH] hugetlbfs directory entry cleanup · 076cf989
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
      
      hugetlbfs is doing strange things with directory sizes.  Al says there is no
      semantics for reported size of directories so we can remove this code.

      [PATCH] vmalloc address offset fix · e5868a37
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
      
      Paul wrote a patch to use some of the rmap infrastructure to flush TLB
      entries on ppc64.  When testing it we found a problem in vmalloc where it
      sets up the pte -> address mapping incorrectly.  We clear the top bits of
      the address but then forget to pass in the full address to
      pte_alloc_kernel.  The end result is the address in page->index is
      truncated.
      
      I fixed it in a similar way to how zeromap_pmd_range etc does it.  I'm
      guessing no one uses the rmap hooks on vmalloc pages yet, so havent seen
      this problem.

      [PATCH] Allow software_suspend to fail · 0c2d1195
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>
      
      software_suspend() can fail for quite a lot of reasons (for example not
      enough swapspace).  However current interface returned void, so you could
      not propagate error back to userland.  This fixes it.  Plus
      __read_suspend_image() is only done during init time, so we might as well
      mark it __init.

      [PATCH] Trivial cleanups for swsusp · 9db89cf7
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>
      
      This kills unused part of struct and fixes spelling.
      
      It also fixes codingstyle a bit, converts "can not happen" panic into BUG_ON
      (fill_suspend_header() allocates no memory so panic is meaningless) and adds
      check for sizeof (struct link) [if that is not PAGE_SIZE, we have *bad*
      problem, better check early].

      [PATCH] swsusp does not stop DMA properly during resume · e7c215c1

      From: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>
      
      To correctly stop all DMA activity, make the boot kernel put all devices
      into suspend state before entering the resume kernel image.

      [PATCH] EDD: read disk80 MBR signature, export through edd module · e100952f
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com>
      
      
      There are 4 bytes in the MSDOS master boot record, at offset 0x1b8,
      which may contain a per-system-unique signature.  By first writing a unique
      signature to each disk in the system, then rebooting, and then reading the
      MBR to get the signature for the boot disk (int13 dev 80h), userspace may
      use it to compare against disks it knows as named /dev/[hs]d[a-z], and thus
      determine which disk is the BIOS boot disk, thus where the /boot, / and
      boot loaders should be placed.
      
      This is useful in the case where the BIOS is not EDD3.0 compliant, thus
      doesn't provide the PCI bus/dev/fn and IDE/SCSI location of the boot disk,
      yet you need to know which disk is the boot disk.  It's most useful in OS
      installers.
      
      This patch retrieves the signature from the disk in setup.S, stores it in a
      space reserved in the empty_zero_page, copies it somewhere safe in setup.c,
      and exports it via /sys/firmware/edd/int13_disk80/mbr_signature in edd.c.
      Code is covered under CONFIG_EDD=[ym].

      [PATCH] add readX_relaxed() interface · 50f33737
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: jbarnes@sgi.com (Jesse Barnes)
      
      Here's the patch to add the new _relaxed variants for PIO read accesses.
      It's been ack'd by gregkh and Grant Grundler, and I think it's ready to
      go.
      
      PCI ordering rules also guarantee that PIO read responses arrive after any
      outstanding DMA writes on that bus, since for some devices the result of a
      readb() call may signal to the driver that a DMA transaction is complete.  In
      many cases, however, the driver may want to indicate that the next readb()
      call has no relation to any previous DMA writes performed by the device.  The
      driver can use the readb_relaxed() for these cases, although only some
      platforms will honor the relaxed semantics.

      [PATCH] printk_ratelimit() tweaks · 9829f0a5
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
      
      I made a few changes, basically the burst parameter is now in units of
      messages, makes much more sense than the old net ratelimit one.
      
      I also screwed up adding a sysctl_jiffies strategy for the burst parameter.

      [PATCH] bitmap parsing/printing routines, version 4 · 29d82b14
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Joe Korty <joe.korty@ccur.com>
      
      1) the version in 2.6.1 is broken, doesn't work on 64bit big endian
         machines at all.  This needed fixing.  I thought it best to fix by
         rewriting the printer/parser with an algorithm that is naturally endian &
         sizeof(long) resistant.
      
      2) I wanted all digits to print, eg, 0000ffff,00000004 not ffff,4.
      
      3) I wanted exactly NR_CPUS bits to print (or whatever the bitmap size is
         in bits, and not have what is displayed rounded up to the nearest full
         byte, as the current version did.
      
      4) The bitmap printer and parser should be part of bitmap.[ch] with syntax
         and semantics to match.  The original lib/mask.c versions did not
         recognize this commonality.
