      kbuild: aic7xxx firmware build should not overwrite shipped files · b3434820
      Kai Germaschewski authored
      o Add dependencies on generated files explicitly to the
        aic7xxx Makefile - These cannot be figured out
        automatically
       
      o Rename the precompiled firmware files to 
        shipped_aic7xxx_{reg,seq}.h, so that we don't overwrite 
        shipped files when regenerating the firmware

      [PATCH] buffermem_pages removal (4/5) · 71e6cd0a
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      This is the most discussion-worthy patch of the series:  Change the
      meaning of si_meminfo->bufferram from "all pages in pagecache
      backed by block devices" to "all pages in pagecache".
      
      In the header/manpage is is documented as "Memory used by buffers",
      but as the buffercache is gone I think the new meaning fits the
      intention from pre-pagecache days much better.

      [PATCH] buffermem_pages removal (3/5) · 628d1558
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      This one is a bit more controveral as it may break stupid userlevel
      programs:  remove the 'Buffers' field from /proc/meminfo and make
      the Cached field show the full pagecache size instead of subtracting
      the block-device backed pages.
      
      All /proc/meminfo-using programs I have (free, top) still work fine.

      [PATCH] buffermem_pages removal (1/5) · e95bd965
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      With all work done by akpm in 2.5 Linus no more has a buffer cache
      in the traditional sense.  Still we try to keep estimates about
      what would be the buffer cache size by keeping the number of pages
      indexed by block device inodes.  This is broken not only because the
      old buffercache was also used for file data which is nowdays not
      hashed to block device inodes and thus makes every user of this data
      assume wrong numbers.  Second is is possible to use block device
      pages not through the buffer_head interface (i.e. userspace
      block device nodes, possibly JFS also soon).  In addition the atomic_t
      used for this bookkepping (buffermem_pages) causes cacheline bouncing
      on larger machines.
      
      This is the first patch of a series to get rid of it.  It removes the
      useless output of supposedly buffer pages in show_mem(), which is used
      by the magic sysrq key code.

      kbuild: Stop immediately on error · 5f044d28
      Kai Germaschewski authored
      This patch restores the previous behavior of stopping the build
      immediately on error (unless the -k option is given to make)
      
      Before this patch, we would do the echo command no matter if the
      compile failed, thus returning success always.

      Fix building .i / .s files for testing · d73e35e8
      Kai Germaschewski authored
      E.g. make arch/i386/kernel/process.[is] used to work at least
      in the cases where the object wouldn't need any additional command
      line flags defined in the local subdir.
      
      Get back this behavior, I think I know how to do this correctly, too,
      but that's for later.

      kbuild: Speed up vmlinux build · a6209819
      Kai Germaschewski authored
      The recursive build used to do the following: On entering a directory,
      we would first call make in the subdirectories listed in $(subdir-y),
      and then call make in the current directory again, with the target
      'all_targets'.
      
      The second invocation was used to make sure that the subdir makes completed
      before trying to build the O_TARGET/L_TARGET in the current dir, since
      this would link in objects in these subdirectories.
      
      However, using correct dependencies achieves the same, i.e. just
      make the objects in $(obj-y) which are not in the local subdirectory
      depend on 'sub_dirs', which is the rule to descend into subdirs.
      
      This patch actually halves the time "make vmlinux" takes when there's
      nothing to do (which makes sense, as we save half of the make invocations)

      kbuild: Standardize building of init/* · 5674ceba
      Kai Germaschewski authored
      There's no good reason to build the objects in init/ explicitly from
      the top-level Makefile. Instead, handle init/ like every other
      subdir, which also provides the automatic checks for a changed
      command line etc.

      [PATCH] get rid of <linux/locks.h> · bd2b0c85
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      The lock.h header contained some hand-crafted lcoking routines from
      the pre-SMP days.  In 2.5 only lock_super/unlock_super are left,
      guarded by a number of completly unrelated (!) includes.
      
      This patch moves lock_super/unlock_super to fs.h, which defined
      struct super_block that is needed for those to operate it, removes
      locks.h and updates all caller to not include it and add the missing,
      previously nested includes where needed.

      [PATCH] [13/13] quota-13-ioctl · ad447df3
      Jan Kara authored
      This patch implements ioctl() for getting space used by file.
      I agree it's ioctl() abuse, it doesn't work on links and has
      other ugly properties. Better would be to change 'struct stat'
      but changing it just due to this is overkill and it will take
      some time before there will be enough changes which will provoke
      yet another struct stat :). So this is temporary solution...
      If you don't like it, simply reject it. The function it provides
      is not fundamental...
      
      So that should be all patches. Any comments (or decision about
      including/not including) welcome.

      [PATCH] [7/13] quota-7-quotactl · b5abbc1f
      Jan Kara authored
      This is probably the largest chunk in quota patches. It removes old quotactl interface
      and implements new one. New interface should not need arch specific conversions so they
      are removed. All quota interface stuff is moved to quota.c so we can
      easily separate things which should be compiled even if quota is disabled (mainly
      because XFS needs some interface even if standard VFS quota is disabled).
      Callbacks to filesystem on quota_on() and quota_off() are implemented (needed by Ext3),
      quota operations callbacks are now set in super.c on superblock initialization and
      not on quota_on(). This way it starts to make sense to have callbacks on alloc_space(),
      alloc_inode() etc. as filesystem can override them on read_super(). This will be used
      later for implementing journalled quota.

      [PATCH] [6/13] quota-6-bytes · ce9fb139
      Jan Kara authored
      This patch implements counting of used space in inodes in bytes.
      New field i_bytes is added and used space modulo 512 is kept in
      it (rest is still kept in i_blocks). Functions manipulating both
      i_blocks and i_bytes are implemented (inode_add_bytes(), inode_sub_bytes()
      and inode_set_bytes()). Filesystems allocating only in whole blocks
      can safely ignore i_bytes field and continue using i_blocks...
