Unfortunately some i2c drivers were missed when the "name" element of struct device was removed. This cset fixes these drivers.

Patch from Deepak Saxena Follows your suggestion and also removes the #ifdef around pci_unmap_addr and friends. Since pci.h should only be getting included if PCI is enabled by PCI drivers and core, we shouldn't need the NOP version.

Patch from Tony Lindgren The following patch adds the ARM925 processor support. This patch is based on the proc-arm925.S in 2.4 kernel, and it has been modified to be more like the ARM926 support in the 2.6 kernel, except for the cache flushing and initialization. Also, this patch fixes the writeback cache flushing for most part. There are still some issues with writeback cache flushing with devices using direct memory access, such as USB OHCI. It is recommended to use the writethrough instead if using USB. This is the default for OMAP-1510. OMAP-1610 does not have these issues, as it uses ARM926 core. This patch includes the update for the processor functions to be armv4t instead armv5t as suggested here: http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=1740/1

Correct the cache setup bits for the 5407. This enables the write buffers properly (despite what the previous comment said). This combined with fixed cache flushing code provides a nice performance boost on the 5407. Also fix the ROMfs setup to only move the ROMfs region if it is actually configured.

Added ELF relocation type defines. These are needed by the module loading code for m68knommu.

This adds the configuration option to enable the uClinux shared flat binary support. The code support is already in the binfmt_load code, just the config option is missing.

Fix a number of memory leaks in the uClinux binfmt_flat loader. All are related to not cleaning up properly on failure conditions.

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> I've just grepped over the tree for reamining MOD_INC_USE_COUNT users, and ftape is a really horrible one, it relies on MOD_{INC,DEV}_USE_COUNT in the most horrible places + it's own bookkepping and the <= 2.4 may unload hooks. And although I don't have the hardware I can guarantee it doesn't work as expected. So let's just remove the module_exit handler and mark it unremovable, if someone wants to fix up ftape later it's fine with me, but it's a really scary driver..

From: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com> Patch below applies to both 2.4.25 and 2.6.3, and replaces the public domain statement and non-warranty with the GPL, as is permitted by the code being in the public domain, and is done with legal advice.

From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org> "options tuner type=2" is just there for historical reasons and should only be used/needed if the main driver doesn't allow to configure the tuner type. I'm not sure whenever I can remove that altogether without breaking anything. There are several users of the tuner module, some outside the standard kernel tree ... > > if (type < TUNERS) { > > + t->type = type; > > printk("tuner: type forced to %d (%s) [insmod]\n", > > t->type,tuners[t->type].name); > > set_type(client,type); That is wrong, it will break in other corner cases, it may cause the set_type() function not doing the initializations. The prink can also be dropped because set_type does that too. The patch below removes that. It also makes the kernel messages a bit more verbose and adds support for two new tuners.

From: Pragnesh Sampat <pragnesh.sampat@timesys.com> The file initramfs_data.cpio is slightly different when generated on cygwin, compared to linux, which causes the kernel to panic with the message "no cpio magic" (See Documentation/early-userspace/README). The problem in cpio generation is due to the difference in sprintf modifiers on cygwin. The code uses "%08ZX" for strlen of a device node. printf man pages discourages "Z" and has 'z' instead. Both of these are not available on cygwin sprintf (at least some versions of cygwin). The net result of all of this is that the generated file literally contains "ZX" and then the strlen after that and messes up that 110 offset etc. The file is 516 bytes long on the system that I tested and on linux it is 512 bytes. The fix below just uses "%08X" for that field.

From: Martin Hicks <mort@wildopensource.com> This is a patch based on one that Jack Steiner sent to the ia64 list in November. The original thread can be found at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-ia64&m=106869606922555&w=2 I created the little wrapper function that was requested. I think the only other arch, other than ia64, that doesn't at least include asm-generic/tlb.h is arm. Something appears broken in TLB flushing on IA64 (& possibly other architectures). Functionally, it works but performance is bad on systems with large cpu counts. The result is that TLB flushing in exit_mmap() is frequently being done via IPIs to all cpus rather than with a "ptc" instruction or with a new context..

From: Christophe Saout <christophe@saout.de> Adds a crypto module for device-mapper. The intent here is to remove cryptoloop ASAP, to pull the remapping gunk out of the loops driver and to migrate people onto dm-crypt. It is on-disk compatible with existing cryptolop installations. See http://www.saout.de/misc/dm-crypt/ for usage details.

From: Willem Riede <wrlk@riede.org> The onstream drives, be they scsi, atapi, ieee1394 or usb, are supported by the osst driver. When the drives were new, code was introduced in ide-tape independently, but never really maintained since. There are issues with the drives I found and dealt with in osst, that ide-tape doesn't address. So this code in ide-tape is both redundant and imperfect. I assumed from http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=107550547613846&w=2 that there was buy in for removing it. When this patch is applied, ide-tape will refuse to attach to an onstream DI drive, and will write to syslog to use ide-scsi + osst instead.

From: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> A potential race can happen in epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_MOD) where an event can happen in between f_op->poll() and the lock on ep->lock (we cannot call f_op->poll() inside a lock, and the f_op->poll() callback does not carry any info at the current time - missing wake_up_info() already ;). In that case the event would be removed. We can easily leave the event inside the ready list and have the ep_send_events() logic do the job for us at later time. (Thanks to david.lee@teracruz.com for reporting the thing, since it shouldn't have been a nice one ;)

From: MAEDA Naoaki <maeda.naoaki@jp.fujitsu.com> I am testing PCI hot-plug in 2.6.2 kernel, but sometimes a struct resource tree in kernel/resource.c was broken if multiple hot-plug requests are issued at the same time. The reason is lots of drivers call release_region() on hot removal, and __release_region(), which is invoked by release_region() macro, changes the tree without holding a writer lock for resource_lock. I think __release_region() must hold a writer lock as well as __request_region() does. A following patch fixes the issue in my environment.

There is PMU code under development for the XScale but that is still forthcoming. In the meantime you can use the timer int driver with an updated Oprofile-CVS userspace (SF is a bit slow, please allow 24hrs).

Some machines appear to have BIOS problems which are causing 3c59x adapters to come up in a powered-off state when WOL and PM are enabled. So bring back the 2.4 `enable_wol' module option which disables wake-on-lan unless the user specifically asked for it.

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjanv@redhat.com> I have 4Kb stacks + IRQ stacks working in my tree. The biggest part of the 4K-stacks work is changing hardcoded 8Kb assumptions to the proper, pre-existing define for this. That part of the patch is appropriate in general, even when 4Kb stacks might not be.

The recent change to /proc/partitions which prevents it from displaying removeable media accidentally caused 128 NBD and 16 ramdisk partitions to appear in /proc/partitions instead. So add a specific gendisk flag which says "don't show me in /proc/partitions" and use that.
