deep within the wakeup path.)

akpm: we need to mark more functions __sched.  lock_sock(), msleep(), others..

22f2e28017 [PATCH] get_options to allow a hypenated range for isolcpus
This allows a hyphenated range of positive numbers in the string passed
to command line helper function, get_options.

Currently the command line option "isolcpus=" takes as its argument a
list of cpus.

Format: <cpu number>,...,<cpu number>
Valid values of <cpu_number>  include all cpus, 0 to "number of CPUs in
system - 1". This can get extremely long when isolating the majority of
cpus on a large system.  The kernel isolcpus code would not need any
changing to use this feature.  To use it, the change would be in the
command line format for 'isolcpus='
Format:
<cpu number>,...,<cpu number>
or
<cpu number>-<cpu number>  (must be a positive range in ascending
order.)
or a mixture
<cpu number>,...,<cpu number>-<cpu number>

d6392f873f [PATCH] fuse: add support for block device based filesystems
I never intended this, but people started using fuse to implement block device
based "real" filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs).

The following four patches add better support for these kinds of filesystems.
Unlike "normal" fuse filesystems, using this feature should require superuser
privileges (enforced by the fusermount utility).

Thanks to Szabolcs Szakacsits for the input and testing.

This patch adds a 'fuseblk' filesystem type, which is only different from the
'fuse' filesystem type in how the 'dev_name' mount argument is interpreted.

16663a87ad ACPI: ibm-acpi: implement fan watchdog command
This patch implements a fan control safety watchdog, by request of the
authors of userspace fan control scripts.

When the watchdog timer expires, the equivalent action of a "fan enable"
command is executed.  The watchdog timer is reset at every reception of a
fan control command that could change the state of the fan itself.

This command is meant to be used by userspace fan control daemons, to make
sure the fan is never left set to an unsafe level because of userspace
problems.

Users of the X31/X40/X41 "speed" command are on their own, the current
implementation of "speed" is just too incomplete to be used safely,
anyway.  Better to never use it, and just use the "level" command instead.

The watchdog is programmed using echo "watchdog <number>" > fan, where
number is the number of seconds to wait before doing an "enable", and zero
disables the watchdog.

60eb0b35a9 ACPI: ibm-acpi: Implement direct-ec-access thermal reading modes for up to 16 sensors
This patch extends ibm-acpi to support reading thermal sensors directly
through ACPI EC register access.  It uses a DMI match to detect ThinkPads
with a new-style embedded controller, that are known to have forward-
compatible register maps and use 0x00 to fill in non-used registers and
export thermal sensors at EC offsets 0x78-7F and 0xC0-C7.

Direct ACPI EC register access is implemented for 8-sensor and 16-sensor
new-style ThinkPad controller firmwares as an experimental feature.  The
code does some limited sanity checks on the temperatures read through EC
access, and will default to the old ACPI TMP0-7 mode if anything is amiss.

Userspace ABI is not changed for 8 sensors, but /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal is
extended for 16 sensors if the firmware supports 16 sensors.

A documentation update is also provided.

The information about the ThinkPad register map was determined by studying
ibm-acpi "ecdump" output from various ThinkPad models, submitted by
subscribers of the linux-thinkpad mailinglist.  Futher information was
gathered from the DSDT tables, as they describe the EC register map in
recent ThinkPads.

DSDT source shows that TMP0-7 access and direct register access are
actually the same thing on these firmwares, but unfortunately IBM never
did update their DSDT EC register map to export TMP8-TMP15 for the second
range of sensors.

8542b200cb [PATCH] paravirt: Add option to allow skipping the timer check
Add a way to disable the timer IRQ routing check via a boot option.  The
VMI timer code uses this to avoid triggering the pester Mingo code, which
probes for some very unusual and broken motherboard routings.  It fires
100% of the time when using a paravirtual delay mechanism instead of using
a realtime delay, since there is no elapsed real time, and the 4 timer IRQs
have not yet been delivered.

In addition, it is entirely possible, though improbable, that this bug
could surface on real hardware which picks a particularly bad time to enter
SMM mode, causing a long latency during one of the timer IRQs.

While here, make check_timer be __init.

In particular this tries to handle quirks from:
- Nvidia NF2-4 reference BIOS: wrong timer override
- Asus: Wrong timer override but no HPET table
- ATI: require timer disabled in 8259
- Some boards: require timer enabled in 8259

We just try many of the the known variants in the hopefully right order
in check_timer.

Trying pin 0/2 on Nvidia suggested by Tim Hockin.

TBD Experimental. Needs a lot of testing

be274eeaf2 [PATCH] i386: extend bzImage protocol for relocatable protected mode kernel
Extend bzImage protocol to enable bootloaders to load a completely relocatable
bzImage.  Now protected mode component of kernel is also relocatable and a
boot-loader can load the protected mode component at a differnt physical
address than 1MB.  (If kernel was built with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE)

Kexec can make use of it to load this kernel at a different physical address
to capture kernel crash dumps.

6fc52f81a8 [PATCH] Clean up 'make help' output for documentation targets.
Here's a patch that cleans up the "make help" output a bit for the
documentation targets.

Currently the documentation targets are listed completely different than
all the other targets :

  Documentation targets:
    Linux kernel internal documentation in different formats:
    xmldocs (XML DocBook), psdocs (Postscript), pdfdocs (PDF)
    htmldocs (HTML), mandocs (man pages, use installmandocs to install)

with this patch they are more in line with the rest of the output :

  Documentation targets:
   Linux kernel internal documentation in different formats:
    htmldocs        - HTML
    installmandocs  - install man pages generated by mandocs
    mandocs         - man pages
    pdfdocs         - PDF
    psdocs          - Postscript
    xmldocs         - XML DocBook

ba4e58eca8 [NET]: Supporting UDP-Lite (RFC 3828) in Linux
This is a revision of the previously submitted patch, which alters
the way files are organized and compiled in the following manner:

	* UDP and UDP-Lite now use separate object files
	* source file dependencies resolved via header files
	  net/ipv{4,6}/udp_impl.h
	* order of inclusion files in udp.c/udplite.c adapted
	  accordingly

[NET/IPv4]: Support for the UDP-Lite protocol (RFC 3828)

This patch adds support for UDP-Lite to the IPv4 stack, provided as an
extension to the existing UDPv4 code:
        * generic routines are all located in net/ipv4/udp.c
        * UDP-Lite specific routines are in net/ipv4/udplite.c
        * MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/udplite
        * shared API with extensions for partial checksum coverage

[NET/IPv6]: Extension for UDP-Lite over IPv6

It extends the existing UDPv6 code base with support for UDP-Lite
in the same manner as per UDPv4. In particular,
        * UDPv6 generic and shared code is in net/ipv6/udp.c
        * UDP-Litev6 specific extensions are in net/ipv6/udplite.c
        * MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp6 and /proc/net/udplite6
        * support for IPV6_ADDRFORM
        * aligned the coding style of protocol initialisation with af_inet6.c
        * made the error handling in udpv6_queue_rcv_skb consistent;
          to return `-1' on error on all error cases
        * consolidation of shared code

[NET]: UDP-Lite Documentation and basic XFRM/Netfilter support

The UDP-Lite patch further provides
        * API documentation for UDP-Lite
        * basic xfrm support
        * basic netfilter support for IPv4 and IPv6 (LOG target)

2e2e9e92bd [DCCP]: Add sysctls to control retransmission behaviour
This adds 3 sysctls which govern the retransmission behaviour of DCCP control
packets (3way handshake, feature negotiation).

It removes 4 FIXMEs from the code.

The close resemblance of sysctl variables to their TCP analogues is emphasised
not only by their name, but also by giving them the same initial values.
This is useful since there is not much practical experience with DCCP yet.

Furthermore, with regard to the previous patch, it is now possible to limit
the number of keepalive-Responses by setting net.dccp.default.request_retries
(also a bit like in TCP).

Lastly, added documentation of all existing DCCP sysctls.

6f4e5fff1e [DCCP]: Support for partial checksums (RFC 4340, sec. 9.2)
This patch does the following:
  a) introduces variable-length checksums as specified in [RFC 4340, sec. 9.2]
  b) provides necessary socket options and documentation as to how to use them
  c) basic support and infrastructure for the Minimum Checksum Coverage feature
     [RFC 4340, sec. 9.2.1]: acceptability tests, user notification and user
     interface

In addition, it

 (1) fixes two bugs in the DCCPv4 checksum computation:
 	* pseudo-header used checksum_len instead of skb->len
	* incorrect checksum coverage calculation based on dccph_x
 (2) removes dccp_v4_verify_checksum() since it reduplicates code of the
     checksum computation; code calling this function is updated accordingly.
 (3) now uses skb_checksum(), which is safer than checksum_partial() if the
     sk_buff has is a non-linear buffer (has pages attached to it).
 (4) fixes an outstanding TODO item:
        * If P.CsCov is too large for the packet size, drop packet and return.

The code has been tested with applications, the latest version of tcpdump now
comes with support for partial DCCP checksums.

Most PHYs connect to an ethernet controller over a GMII or MII

different interfaces, such as RGMII or SGMII.

The ethernet driver will tell the PHY what type of connection it
is by setting it manually, or passing it in through phy_connect
(or phy_attach).

Changes include:
* Updates to documentation
* Updates to PHY Lib consumers
* Changes to PHY Lib to add interface support
* Some minor changes to whitespace in phy.h
* gianfar driver now detects interface and passes appropriate
  value to PHY Lib

3c8961ee6d usb: writing_usb_driver free urb cleanup
Allright. As Greg KH suggested I split this big patch into smaller ones to
make the changes easier to review. Having no better idea how to split that I 
split it on a 'patch per file' basis. All those patches clean redundant 'if' before 
usb_unlink/free/kill_urb():

if (urb)
	usb_free_urb(urb); /* unlink / free / kill */

I decided not to touch bigger 'if's like 

if (urb) {
	usb_kill_urb(urb);
	usb_free_urb(urb);
	urb = NULL;
}

as that would be probably too intrusive. One of patches also fixes 
drivers/usb/misc/auerswald.c memleak I found when digging the code. All those
patches are against 2.6.19-rc4.

but at least add a command line option to force the timer override
and let them boot.

13bb7e37e5 [PATCH] sysctl: Undeprecate sys_sysctl
The basic issue is that despite have been deprecated and warned about as a
very bad thing in the man pages since its inception there are a few real
users of sys_sysctl.  It was my assumption that because sysctl had been
deprecated for all of 2.6 there would be no user space users by this point,
so I initially gave sys_sysctl a very short deprecation period.

Now that I know there are a few real users the only sane way to proceed
with deprecation is to push the time limit out to a year or two work and
work with distributions that have big testing pools like fedora core to
find these last remaining users.

Which means that the sys_sysctl interface needs to be maintained in the
meantime.

Since I have provided a technical measure that allows us to add new sysctl
entries without reserving more binary numbers I believe that is enough to
fix the sys_sysctl binary interface maintenance problems, because there is
no longer a need to change the binary interface at all.

Since the sys_sysctl implementation needs to stay around for a while and
the worst of the maintenance issues that caused us to occasionally break
the ABI have been addressed I don't see any advantage in continuing with
the removal of sys_sysctl.

So instead of merely increasing the deprecation period this patch removes
the deprecation of sys_sysctl and modifies the kernel to compile the code
in by default.

With committing to maintain sys_sysctl we get all of the advantages of a
fast interface for anything that needs it.  Currently sys_sysctl is about
5x faster than /proc/sys, for the same string data.

This should turn off the non-boot CPU, freeze all processes, wait for 5
seconds and then thaw the processes and the CPU.

(2)
# echo test > /sys/power/disk

This should turn off the non-boot CPU, freeze all processes, shrink

6b4b78fed4 PCI: optionally sort device lists breadth-first
Problem:
New Dell PowerEdge servers have 2 embedded ethernet ports, which are
labeled NIC1 and NIC2 on the chassis, in the BIOS setup screens, and
in the printed documentation.  Assuming no other add-in ethernet ports
in the system, Linux 2.4 kernels name these eth0 and eth1
respectively.  Many people have come to expect this naming.  Linux 2.6
kernels name these eth1 and eth0 respectively (backwards from
expectations).  I also have reports that various Sun and HP servers
have similar behavior.


Root cause:
Linux 2.4 kernels walk the pci_devices list, which happens to be
sorted in breadth-first order (or pcbios_find_device order on i386,
which most often is breadth-first also).  2.6 kernels have both the
pci_devices list and the pci_bus_type.klist_devices list, the latter
is what is walked at driver load time to match the pci_id tables; this
klist happens to be in depth-first order.

On systems where, for physical routing reasons, NIC1 appears on a
lower bus number than NIC2, but NIC2's bridge is discovered first in
the depth-first ordering, NIC2 will be discovered before NIC1.  If the
list were sorted breadth-first, NIC1 would be discovered before NIC2.

A PowerEdge 1955 system has the following topology which easily
exhibits the difference between depth-first and breadth-first device
lists.

-[0000:00]-+-00.0  Intel Corporation 5000P Chipset Memory Controller Hub
           +-02.0-[0000:03-08]--+-00.0-[0000:04-07]--+-00.0-[0000:05-06]----00.0-[0000:06]----00.0  Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC2, 2.4 kernel name eth1, 2.6 kernel name eth0)
           +-1c.0-[0000:01-02]----00.0-[0000:02]----00.0  Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC1, 2.4 kernel name eth0, 2.6 kernel name eth1)


Other factors, such as device driver load order and the presence of
PCI slots at various points in the bus hierarchy further complicate
this problem; I'm not trying to solve those here, just restore the
device order, and thus basic behavior, that 2.4 kernels had.


Solution:

The solution can come in multiple steps.

Suggested fix #1: kernel
Patch below optionally sorts the two device lists into breadth-first
ordering to maintain compatibility with 2.4 kernels.  It adds two new
command line options:
  pci=bfsort
  pci=nobfsort
to force the sort order, or not, as you wish.  It also adds DMI checks
for the specific Dell systems which exhibit "backwards" ordering, to
make them "right".


Suggested fix #2: udev rules from userland
Many people also have the expectation that embedded NICs are always
discovered before add-in NICs (which this patch does not try to do).
Using the PCI IRQ Routing Table provided by system BIOS, it's easy to
determine which PCI devices are embedded, or if add-in, which PCI slot
they're in.  I'm working on a tool that would allow udev to name
ethernet devices in ascending embedded, slot 1 .. slot N order,
subsort by PCI bus/dev/fn breadth-first.  It'll be possible to use it
independent of udev as well for those distributions that don't use
udev in their installers.

Suggested fix #3: system board routing rules
One can constrain the system board layout to put NIC1 ahead of NIC2
regardless of breadth-first or depth-first discovery order.  This adds
a significant level of complexity to board routing, and may not be
possible in all instances (witness the above systems from several
major manufacturers).  I don't want to encourage this particular train
of thought too far, at the expense of not doing #1 or #2 above.


Feedback appreciated.  Patch tested on a Dell PowerEdge 1955 blade
with 2.6.18.

You'll also note I took some liberty and temporarily break the klist
abstraction to simplify and speed up the sort algorithm.  I think
that's both safe and appropriate in this instance.

deb8ee43a2 USB: xpad: dance pad support
Adds support for dance pads to the xpad driver. Dance pads require the
d-pad to be mapped to four buttons instead of two axes, so that
combinations of up/down and left/right can be hit simultaneously.
Known dance pads are detected, and there is a module parameter added
to default unknown xpad devices to map the d-pad to buttons if this is
desired. (dpad_to_buttons). Minor modifications were made to port the
changes in the original patch to a newer kernel version.

This patch was originally from Dominic Cerquetti originally written
for kernel 2.6.11.4, with minor modifications (API changes for USB,
spelling fixes to the documentation added in the original patch) made
to apply to the current kernel. I have modified Dominic's original
patch per some suggestions from Dmitry Torokhov. (There was nothing
in the patch format description about multiple From: lines, so I
haven't added myself.)

3e082a910d [SCSI] Add ability to scan scsi busses asynchronously
Since it often takes around 20-30 seconds to scan a scsi bus, it's
highly advantageous to do this in parallel with other things.  The bulk
of this patch is ensuring that devices don't change numbering, and that
all devices are discovered prior to trying to start init.  For those
who build SCSI as modules, there's a new scsi_wait_scan module that will
ensure all bus scans are finished.

This patch only handles drivers which call scsi_scan_host.  Fibre Channel,
SAS, SATA, USB and Firewire all need additional work.

5fcce7432a [PATCH] fix lockdep-design.txt
I was looking at lockdep-desing.txt and i guess i am confused with the
changes with respect to fd7bcea35e. It
says

+   '.'  acquired while irqs enabled
+   '+'  acquired in irq context
+   '-'  acquired in process context with irqs disabled
+   '?'  read-acquired both with irqs enabled and in irq context
+

But the get_usage_chars() function does this for '-'
 if (class->usage_mask & LOCKF_ENABLED_HARDIRQS)
                        *c1 = '-';

So i guess what would be correct would be
'.'  acquired while irqs disabled
'+'  acquired in irq context
'-'  acquired with irqs enabled
'?' read acquired in irq context with irqs enabled.

20e9751bd9 [PATCH] rcu: simplify/improve batch tuning
Kill a hard-to-calculate 'rsinterval' boot parameter and per-cpu
rcu_data.last_rs_qlen.  Instead, it adds adds a flag rcu_ctrlblk.signaled,
which records the fact that one of CPUs has sent a resched IPI since the
last rcu_start_batch().

Roughly speaking, we need two rcu_start_batch()s in order to move callbacks
from ->nxtlist to ->donelist.  This means that when ->qlen exceeds qhimark
and continues to grow, we should send a resched IPI, and then do it again
after we gone through a quiescent state.

On the other hand, if it was already sent, we don't need to do it again
when another CPU detects overflow of the queue.

621934ee7e [PATCH] srcu-3: RCU variant permitting read-side blocking
Updated patch adding a variant of RCU that permits sleeping in read-side
critical sections.  SRCU is as follows:

o	Each use of SRCU creates its own srcu_struct, and each
	srcu_struct has its own set of grace periods.  This is
	critical, as it prevents one subsystem with a blocking
	reader from holding up SRCU grace periods for other
	subsystems.

o	The SRCU primitives (srcu_read_lock(), srcu_read_unlock(),
	and synchronize_srcu()) all take a pointer to a srcu_struct.

o	The SRCU primitives must be called from process context.

o	srcu_read_lock() returns an int that must be passed to
	the matching srcu_read_unlock().  Realtime RCU avoids the
	need for this by storing the state in the task struct,
	but SRCU needs to allow a given code path to pass through
	multiple SRCU domains -- storing state in the task struct
	would therefore require either arbitrary space in the
	task struct or arbitrary limits on SRCU nesting.  So I
	kicked the state-storage problem up to the caller.

	Of course, it is not permitted to call synchronize_srcu()
	while in an SRCU read-side critical section.

o	There is no call_srcu().  It would not be hard to implement
	one, but it seems like too easy a way to OOM the system.
	(Hey, we have enough trouble with call_rcu(), which does
	-not- permit readers to sleep!!!)  So, if you want it,
	please tell me why...

eCryptfs is a stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux.  It is derived from
Erez Zadok's Cryptfs, implemented through the FiST framework for generating
stacked filesystems.  eCryptfs extends Cryptfs to provide advanced key
management and policy features.  eCryptfs stores cryptographic metadata in the
header of each file written, so that encrypted files can be copied between
hosts; the file will be decryptable with the proper key, and there is no need
to keep track of any additional information aside from what is already in the
encrypted file itself.

84eb8d0608 Fix "can not" in Documentation and Kconfig
Randy brought it to my attention that in proper english "can not" should always
be written "cannot". I donot see any reason to argue, even if I mightnot
understand why this rule exists.  This patch fixes "can not" in several
Documentation files as well as three Kconfigs.

do this or that with devfs.

This patch includes some improvements by Joe Perches.

515c208db8 V4L/DVB (4671): Support for SAA7134-based AVerTV Hybrid A16AR
This adds support for a hybrid PAL/DVB/FM card.  Unfortunately I tested
only the DVB since I don't have any proper antenna available and I can
receive even the DVB just barely so; I can hear noise in the FM part but I
couldn't catch any station, then again I don't have an FM antenna either.
The PAL/FM and IR control data are based on what I harvested on the 'net.
Perhaps I or someone else will fix them if they turn out to be wrong.
