These (unused) arrays are causing huge stack utilisation when instantiated in an auto variable. Remove them for now.

From: Olaf Kirch <okir@suse.de> Authentication code in net/sunrpc makes frequent use of groups_alloc(0), which seems to clobber memory past the end of what it allocated. If called with gidsetsize == 0, groups_alloc will set nblocks = 0, but still does a group_info->blocks[0] = group_info->small_block;

From: Bart Samwel <bart@samwel.tk> The attached patch is the outcome of a discussion with Nathan. When laptop mode is active, there is no need for XFS to wake up xfsbufd (the daemon that flushes buffers that are too old) too often. The default is once every second, this patch makes laptop mode do it once every 30 seconds.

From: Bart Samwel <bart@samwel.tk> XFS now uses /proc/sys/fs/xfs/xfssyncd_centisecs /proc/sys/fs/xfs/xfsbufd_centisecs /proc/sys/fs/xfs/age_buffer_centisecs Here's a patch to support these values in the laptop mode control script.

From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Now that everybody has acpi_gsi_to_irq(), we can nuke the deprecated acpi_irq_to_vector(). No references remain.

From: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> The old drivers/char sh-sci driver is no long used by anyone, both sh and h8300 are using the drivers/serial version at this point, so we can get rid of the old one entirely.

From: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de> *** Warning: "memcmp" [drivers/atm/zatm.ko] undefined! gcc 3.4 specific problem. This patch should fix it. Actually it would be better to move all these EXPORT_SYMBOLs into lib/string.c, it is silly that each arch has to duplicate all that.

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Someone blindly added sysfs support to the driver long time ago without understanding the implications (and if they were understood the driver would need half a rewrite for it). Herber Xu recently noticed the problems this causes on unload, so let's if 0 out all that code and get the driver working again.

It's silly that writing to /proc/sysrq-trigger does nothing if you haven't enabled /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq. So provide a new __handle_sysrq() which ignores the sysrq_enabled check. The patch also withdraws __handle_sysrq_nolock() from the kernel API. It had no callers.

From: Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer <mchouque@online.fr> This patch makes the following code work again: #ifdef STT_REGISTER if (info->hdr->e_machine == EM_SPARC || info->hdr->e_machine == EM_SPARCV9) { /* Ignore register directives. */ if (ELF_ST_TYPE(sym->st_info) == STT_REGISTER) break; } #endif This portion of code is sparc specific and nothing else in modpost.c uses e_machine meaning cross-compiling for sparc on i386 (or any little endian machine) is the only way to experience the bug. Without it, e_machine has the wrong value and modpost then generates a lot of "*** Warning: \"symbol\" [filename.ko] undefined" messages.

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjanv@redhat.com>, Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> The patch below resolves the "Not Yet Implemented" print_modules() thing. This is a really useful feature for distros; it allows us to do statistical analysis on which modules are present how often in oopses compared to how often they are used normally. In addition it helps to spot candidates for certain bugs without having to go back to the customer asking for this information.

From: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> The block layer checks for -EINVAL from block layer driver ioctls. This is wrong - ENOTTY is unknown and some drivers correctly use this. I suspect for an internal ioctl 2.7 should change to -ENOIOCTLCMD and bitch about old style returns This is conservative fix for the 2.6 case, it keeps the bogus -EINVAL to avoid breaking stuff

From: Greg Edwards <edwardsg@sgi.com> On ia64, EXEC_PAGESIZE (max page size) is 65536, but the default page size is 16k. This results in NGROUPS_PER_BLOCK in include/linux/sched.h being calculated incorrectly when the page size is anything other than 64k. For example, on a 16k page size kernel, a setgroups() call with a gidsetsize of 65536 will end up walking over memory since only 1/4 of the needed pages were allocated for the blocks[] array in the group_info struct. Patch below calculates NGROUPS_PER_BLOCK from PAGE_SIZE instead.

From: Bart Samwel <bart@samwel.tk> The laptop mode control script incorrectly guesses XFS_HZ=1000. This is incorrect, since the patches that made XFS use USER_HZ went into 2.6.6 as well. This changes XFS_HZ to 100 and removes the warning from the doc about checking XFS_HZ.

From: Patrice Bouchand <PBouchand@cyberdeck.com> The value written in the WDT_STOP register is not important. As soon as something is written, the watchdog timer stops. But things will be cleaner if we use the following patch.
