      [PATCH] A basic NFSv4 client for 2.5.x · be6b809b
      Trond Myklebust authored
      In NFSv3, an RPC is retried if the special error NFSERR_JUKEBOX is
      received.  This generic bit of postprocessing happens invisibly for
      synchronous RPC's, but in the async case, the ->tk_exit callback
      must call nfs_async_handle_jukebox() by hand.
      
      In NFSv4, we also need generic postprocessing of async RPC's, but
      the details are different.  Therefore, we don't want to call
      nfs_async_handle_jukebox(); we want to call a different, NFSv4-specific
      routine.  Therefore, we want to move calls to nfs_async_handle_jukebox()
      out of the "generic" NFS code and into NFSv3-specific routines.  This
      has already been done for async READ and WRITE in the preceding patches,
      but there is still one outstanding case: the async REMOVE in sillyrename.
      
      This patch removes nfs_async_handle_jukebox() from the async sillyrename
      path, and puts in the NFSv3 ->unlink_done() rpc_op.

      [PATCH] A basic NFSv4 client for 2.5.x · c44ca040
      Trond Myklebust authored
      This is a nontrivial change to the NFS client.
      
      This patch does for the async WRITE and COMMIT paths what patch 15
      did for the async READ path, by defining new nfs_rpc_ops ->setup_write()
      and ->setup_commit().

      [PATCH] A basic NFSv4 client for 2.5.x · 5dfe032f
      Trond Myklebust authored
      This is a nontrivial change to the NFS client.
      
      This patch does for the async WRITE and COMMIT paths what patch 14
      did for the async READ path, by changing 'struct nfs_write_data'
      so that the v2- and v3-specific parts are moved into a private area,
      with room for a v4-specific part in parallel.  None of the logic is
      changed.

      [PATCH] Disable Nagle algorithm for RPC over TCP. · 0e32be1d
      Trond Myklebust authored
      The Nagle algorithm gets in the way when sending short RPC messages to
      the server. The following patch from Chuck does the equivalent of
      setting TCP_NODELAY on the socket.

      [PATCH] aic7xxx_old update and a compile warning fix in scsi.c · 224896aa
      Doug Ledford authored
      Rework lots of cruft in the aic7xxx_old driver so that it can be more
      easily read and understood by other people and so it starts on the road
      to giving a clearer picture of how to interact with the scsi mid layer.

      [PATCH] tcq fixes for the issue on linux-kernel · e02b943b
      Doug Ledford authored
      This does 4 things.  Fixes the oversight James found about cmd_per_lun.
      Makes scsi_adjust_queue_depth() implement the usage of tagged that I
      described in my email to linux-scsi.  Updates some comments to highlight
      things that are going to go away shortly.  Removes the call to
      host->select_queue_depths() entirely since drivers that implement this
      will try to set SDptr->queue_depth to the desired depth, which in reality
      will do nothing but confuse the mid layer since that is now the actual
      allocated command counter, so it won't make the mid layer allocate more
      commands, it will make the mid layer think more commands have been
      allocated.

      Prevent EFAULT errors when checking link status, in bonding net driver. · eda607d8
      Jay Vosburgh authored
      Also some minor cleanups as well.
      
      [This patch qualifies for the cavemen ugh-lympics, because the driver does
      some really nasty things in interrupt context and this patch does
      not correct that.  However, the patch is an incremental improvement
      over the current code so it's still worth applying.  I'll fix it
      further if IBM does not fix it first.  -jgarzik]

                      <Following patch from Martin Diehl>
              * merge+sync with changes from recent kernels: pci_[sg]et_drvdata,
                __devexit_p, netdev->last_rx, irda header cleanup
              * add netdev tx_timeout which re-initializes the whole thing
              * add power management support consistent with pci driver api
              * major rework of the ring descriptor operations
              * make correct usage of consistent and streaming pci dma api
              * nuke last virt_to_bus() and friends
              * support MIR/FIR highspeed interaction pulse (SIP)
              * review all paths for packet-size issues (rx and tx)
              * fix an old issue requiring hw powercycle caused by a race
                between IrLAP and hardware when switching _back_ to default
                speed at LAP disconnect. This was opened by the complete async
                behaviour of netdev->xmit but didn't happen before your latency
                improvements went into the stack.
              * add driver status readout under /proc/driver/vlsi_ir/irda%
                For 2.5, this will probably go into driverfs once things have
                stabilized.
              * fix potential deadlock in speed changing code
              * make identical driver working for both 2.4 and 2.5
              * add __attribute__((packed)) to hardware-exposed struct
              * add suggested pci_dma_prep_single() to flush cpu cache before
                streaming dma buffer gets reused for busmastering

      Since 2.5.32 the keyboard repeat code was broken. · 723a2459
      Andries E. Brouwer authored
      The reason Vojtech broke it was the stupid name of a field
      in struct kbd_repeat, namely "rate".  Every sane person
      expects that a rate has dimension [1/sec], but here the
      "rate" is a time period measured in msec.
      
      So, the patch below first of all fixes the code,
      and secondly changes the name.
      Since Vojtech used PERIOD as index, I also used period
      as field name in the struct.
      
      Half of the stuff below is actually from Alan Stern.

      [PATCH] sched-2.5.41-A0 · 31989cba
      Ingo Molnar authored
      This fixes the scheduler's migration code to not disable preemption.  It
      also fixes the bug that was hidden by the broken disable-preempt change:
      the migration thread did not kick idle CPUs if a task is migrated to
      them, which causes a hung boot when ksoftirqds are started.  It was pure
      luck it worked until now, it was broken pretty much from day 1 on.
