Adds five sysctls for tuning the writeback behaviour: dirty_async_ratio dirty_background_ratio dirty_sync_ratio dirty_expire_centisecs dirty_writeback_centisecs these are described in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt They are basically the tradiditional knobs which we've always had... We are accreting a ton of obsolete sysctl numbers under /proc/sys/vm/. I didn't recycle these - just mark them unused and remove the obsolete documentation.

Ironically enough, both were written by me. Fixed thus.

Add change_page_attr to change page attributes for the kernel linear map. Fix AGP driver to use change_page_attr for the AGP buffer. Clean up AGP driver a bit (only tested on i386/VIA+AMD) Change ioremap_nocache to use change_page_attr to avoid mappings with conflicting caching attributes.

This exports the pci_bus_type symbol to modules, needed by (at least) the recent changes in pcmcia/cardbus.c.

This was done by inspection, is it OK Anton? It's very simple:

This patch removes the concept of "logical" CPU numbers, in preparation for CPU hotplugging.

Summary: 2.5.17 broke initrd on x86. Fix below. Why: Kai's patch in 2.5.17 to move x86-specific options from Makefile to arch/i386/boot/Makefile unfortunately lost the fact that the orginal "#export RAMDISK = -DRAMDISK=512" statement was commented out. (I suspect a typo.) RAMDISK is obsolete since 1.3.something, and uncommenting it has "interesting" effects since the ram_size field has a very different meaning now. The patch below reverts the statement to its pre-2.5.17 state. Perhaps it should be removed altogether?

This patch splits fput into fput and __fput. __fput is needed by aio to construct a mechanism for performing a deferred fput during io completion, which typically occurs during interrupt context.

This adds support for wait queue function callbacks, which are used by aio to build async read / write operations on top of existing wait queues at points that would normally block a process.

This patch switches SCSI from a bottom half to a tasklet. It's been reviewed, tested & approved by Andrew Morton, James Bottomley & Doug Gilbert.

I took a quick look at why 2.5.21 hung at boot detecting partitions, because a 2.5.22 did the exact same thing on my test box today... The tcq locking is completely screwed now, and as I said before the weekend I think the entire locking is just getting worse now. Anyways, this patch at least attempts to make tcq follow the channel lock usage to make it work for me.

Attached patch brings over the sane bits from 2.4-ac: i.e. if Linus merges this and Alan merges your patch minus my complaints, the two trees will be in sync...

- Finally unify task_in_intr and task_mulin_intr. One crucial code path less to watch out, but a quite dangerous step in itself. PIO reading is functional again. The next step will be the unification of the write path of course. - Introduce a small helper for the execution of task file commands which basically just send a simple command down to the drive. - Add a buffer parameter to ide_raw_taskfile allowing to unify the handling of ioctl and normal ide_raw_taskfile request. - Fix some small function pointer type mismatches. Apply more host chip controller clenups by Bartlomiej: - move setting drive->current_speed from *_tune_chipset() to ide_config_drive_speed() cmd64x.c: - convert cmd64x_tuneproc() to use ata-timing library - clean cmd64x_tune_chipset() and cmd680_tune_chipset() hpt366.c: - remove empty timings table it8172.c: - kill prototypes - update to new udma_setup() scheme - misc cleanups

Set up CardBus cards correctly: initialize them fully before calling device_register(), and make sure to tell the world that it's a PCI-like bus.

This kills Sysrq-D support (did not work anyway, and complicated code). Adds resume support to i8259A (otherwise interrupts will not work after S3). HAVE_NEW_DEVICE_MODEL is always true in 2.5, so we should define it. S3 can't work properly without that. Also limit toshiba workaround to S1. (This hide lack of i8259A support for me). Fixes compilation, and kills <asm/suspend.h> being included twice with ugly hacks around.

Below a patch removing the list of sense codes from usb/storage/debug.h since the same list is already found in scsi/constants.c. This also brings this list up to date with SCSI-3.

The patch below cleans up some SCSI stuff. The main purpose is to avoid trying to read the partition table of a removable disk when the drive has told us that no media are present. (Right now we try to read a 4K block and fail and retry and fail, and give an I/O error on the first sector, then try to read the second sector and fail and retry ...) Unused fields sector_bit_size and sector_bit_shift in struct scsi_disk were removed. The field has_part_table (that has nothing to do with partition tables) was renamed to has_been_registered . The field ready was renamed to media_present . The overly long sd_init_onedisk() was split up. When we notice that no media are present anymore, the partitions are removed from /proc/partitions, but the drive remains, with size 0. A future patch will remove the field capacity - there are all too many places where capacities are stored - but the present patch is large enough already. There is also a quite independent patch in scsi_error.c (yesterday someone had an infinite loop retrying to read bad media) - this patch honours the SCpnt->retries. In case you applied this already, just ignore the scsi_error.c part. Also some "Overrides for Emacs" were removed.
