I found one mistake in the help of bttv in 2.6.10-rc2-bk4 : "I2C bit-banging interfaces" in the character device section. or it's in the device drivers section since 2.6.X. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Ext3 is currently using a duplicate version of generic_open_file, and this should be fixed, before it gets out of sync. In fact, it *has* got out of sync. Apart some cosmetic changes (which are not a problem), note that it directly reads inode->i_size, while the generic version uses i_size_read(). I'm not sure if this bug can actually be triggered, but here follows a possible scenario: when - a file is brought into inode cache - that file is either truncated or extended (i.e. inode->i_size is changed) and after this it changes it's "more than 2Gb" property, - and process B opens that file in the meanwhile, I suppose the size check can be hurted by a race condition, doesn't it? Similar checks should probably be done for other FS's. Also, ext2 does not have this problem - someone fixed this problem in ext2 but not ext3? How?

Add a quirk facility for AC97 in OSS, and add a quirk list for the i810_audio driver. This allows automatically "correct" behaviour for sound hardware w/ known oddities. For example, many cards have the headphone and line-out outputs swapped or headphone outputs only. The code is stolen shamelessly from ALSA, FWIW... Signed-off-by: John W.

- remove ixj_register and ixj_unregister. these were EXPORT_SYMBOL'ed static (sic) functions it seems the only reason why this "worked" was that there were exactly zero users of them... - remove four local variables that are after this removal no longer required - make five functions that were needlessly global static Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The patch below implements CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE for i386 (more exactly, it allows disabling the verbose BUG() reporting). Also, require CONFIG_EMBEDDED for this option: we don't want to make it easy for people to disable useful debug info.

The patch below does the following changes to drivers/char/generic_serial.c : - make two needlessly global functions static - remove the completely unused EXPORT_SYMBOL'ed function gs_do_softint AFAIR the latter should be safe, since drivers are moving away from generic_serial.c.

The hugetlb documentation includes two example programs however they need some attention. At the moment they are ia64 specific (they use MAP_FIXED which will fail on other architectures), and they contain a number of compiler warnings.

First part of the patch series. Define initializer macros Often used structures in the kernel are almost all declared and initialized by macros in the form: DEFINE_TYPE(name) Spinlocks and rwlocks are declared and initialized by: type name = INITIALIZER; After converting the runtime initialization of spinlocks/rwlocks to macro form it is consequent to change the declaration and initializion of global and static locks to the macro form too. This conversion identifies those variables as "special", common code controlled entities similar to list_heads, mutexes... Besides consistency and code clearness this also helps automatic lock validators and debugging code. The patch converts -rwlock_t snd_card_rwlock = RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED; +DEFINE_RWLOCK(snd_card_rwlock); and -static spinlock_t slave_active_lock = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED; +static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(slave_active_lock); There is no runtime overhead or actual code change resulting out of this patch, other than a small reduction in the kernel source code size. The conversion was done with a script, it was verified manually and it was reviewed, compiled and tested as far as possible on x86, ARM, PPC.

To make spinlock/rwlock initialization consistent all over the kernel, this patch converts explicit lock-initializers into spin_lock_init() and rwlock_init() calls. Currently, spinlocks and rwlocks are initialized in two different ways: lock = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED spin_lock_init(&lock) rwlock = RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED rwlock_init(&rwlock) this patch converts all explicit lock initializations to spin_lock_init() or rwlock_init(). (Besides consistency this also helps automatic lock validators and debugging code.) The conversion was done with a script, it was verified manually and it was reviewed, compiled and tested as far as possible on x86, ARM, PPC. There is no runtime overhead or actual code change resulting out of this patch, because spin_lock_init() and rwlock_init() are macros and are thus equivalent to the explicit initialization method. That's the second batch of the unifying patches.
