[PATCH] Shrinks sizeof(files_struct) and better layout
1) Reduce the size of (struct fdtable) to exactly 64 bytes on 32bits
platforms, lowering kmalloc() allocated space by 50%.
2) Reduce the size of (files_struct), using a special 32 bits (or
64bits) embedded_fd_set, instead of a 1024 bits fd_set for the
close_on_exec_init and open_fds_init fields. This save some ram (248
bytes per task) as most tasks dont open more than 32 files. D-Cache
footprint for such tasks is also reduced to the minimum.
3) Reduce size of allocated fdset. Currently two full pages are
allocated, that is 32768 bits on x86 for example, and way too much. The
minimum is now L1_CACHE_BYTES.
UP and SMP should benefit from this patch, because most tasks will touch
only one cache line when open()/close() stdin/stdout/stderr (0/1/2),
(next_fd, close_on_exec_init, open_fds_init, fd_array[0 .. 2] being in the
same cache line)

[PATCH] ext3_readdir: use generic readahead
Linus points out that ext3_readdir's readahead only cuts in when
ext3_readdir() is operating at the very start of the directory. So for large
directories we end up performing no readahead at all and we suck.
So take it all out and use the core VM's page_cache_readahead(). This means
that ext3 directory reads will use all of readahead's dynamic sizing goop.
Note that we're using the directory's filp->f_ra to hold the readahead state,
but readahead is actually being performed against the underlying blockdev's
address_space. Fortunately the readahead code is all set up to handle this.
Tested with printk. It works. I was struggling to find a real workload which
actually cared.

This patch introduces a user space interface for swsusp.
The interface is based on a special character device, called the snapshot
device, that allows user space processes to perform suspend and resume-related
operations with the help of some ioctls and the read()/write() functions.
Additionally it allows these processes to allocate free swap pages from a
selected swap partition, called the resume partition, so that they know which
sectors of the resume partition are available to them.
The interface uses the same low-level system memory snapshot-handling
functions that are used by the built-it swap-writing/reading code of swsusp.
The interface documentation is included in the patch.
The patch assumes that the major and minor numbers of the snapshot device will
be 10 (ie. misc device) and 231, the registration of which has already been
requested.

[PATCH] i386: actively synchronize vmalloc area when registering certain callbacks
Registering a callback handler through register_die_notifier() is obviously
primarily intended for use by modules. However, the way these currently
get called it is basically impossible for them to actually be used by
modules, as there is, on non-PAE configurationes, a good chance (the larger
the module, the better) for the system to crash as a result.
This is because the callback gets invoked
(a) in the page fault path before the top level page table propagation
gets carried out (hence a fault to propagate the top level page table
entry/entries mapping to module's code/data would nest infinitly) and
(b) in the NMI path, where nested faults must absolutely not happen,
since otherwise the IRET from the nested fault re-enables NMIs,
potentially resulting in nested NMI occurences.
Besides the modular aspect, similar problems would even arise for in-
kernel consumers of the API if they touched ioremap()ed or vmalloc()ed
memory inside their handlers.

Implement SMP alternatives, i.e. switching at runtime between different

The UP->SMP case is useful for CPU hotplug.
With CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enabled the code switches to UP at boot time and
when the number of CPUs goes down to 1, and switches to SMP when the number
of CPUs goes up to 2.
Without CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG or on non-SMP-capable systems the code is
patched once at boot time (if needed) and the tables are released
afterwards.
The changes in detail:
* The current alternatives bits are moved to a separate file,
the SMP alternatives code is added there.
* The patch adds some new elf sections to the kernel:
.smp_altinstructions
like .altinstructions, also contains a list
of alt_instr structs.
.smp_altinstr_replacement
like .altinstr_replacement, but also has some space to
save original instruction before replaving it.
.smp_locks
list of pointers to lock prefixes which can be nop'ed
out on UP.
The first two are used to replace more complex instruction
sequences such as spinlocks and semaphores. It would be possible
to deal with the lock prefixes with that as well, but by handling
them as special case the table sizes become much smaller.
* The sections are page-aligned and padded up to page size, so they
can be free if they are not needed.
* Splitted the code to release init pages to a separate function and
use it to release the elf sections if they are unused.

This means we rely on the address of per cpu data increasing as cpu ids
increase. While this will be true for the generic percpu implementation it
may not be true for arch specific implementations.
One way to solve this is to always take runqueues in cpu id order. To do

this fixes coverity bug #888, where the variable
dev is used uninitialized. I assume the programmer

[patch 4/6] s390: qeth :allow setting of attribute "route6" to "no_router".
From: Ursula Braun <braunu@de.ibm.com>
when setting route6 attribute back to no_router qeth does not
issue an IP ASSIST command to reset router value to no_router.
Once primary_router is set device stays in this mode.
Issue an IP ASSIST command when no_router is set in route6.
Device will be reset and thus will not longer run as a primary

[PATCH] AMD Au1xx0: fix Ethernet TX stats
With Au1xx0 Ethernet driver, TX bytes/packets always remain zero. The
problem seems to be that when packet has been transmitted, the length word
in DMA buffer is zero.
The patch updates the TX stats when a buffer is fed to DMA. The initial
2.4 patch was posted to linux-mips@linux-mips.org by Thomas Lange 21 Jan
2005.

[PATCH] libata: Fix a drive detection problem
The current code follows the spec but uses an overlong delay. This would
be great if the hardware did. Several vendors however forget the D7
pulldown. Fortunately 0xFF isnt a sane reset state so we can use it to
skip detection as is done in drivers/ide. (ie this is a tested solution
over a long time)

Right now I think the code is a nonsense. Most likely, I copied it from
old ip_build_xmit(), where it was really special, we had to decide
whether to generate unique ID when generating the first (well, the last)
fragment.
In ip_push_pending_frames() it does not make sense, it should use plain
ip_select_ident() instead.

The expectation mask has some particularities that requires a different
handling. The protocol number fields can be set to non-valid protocols,
ie. l3num is set to 0xFFFF. Since that protocol does not exist, the mask
tuple will not be dumped. Moreover, this results in a kernel panic when
nf_conntrack accesses the array of protocol handlers, that is PF_MAX (0x1F)
long.
This patch introduces the function ctnetlink_exp_dump_mask, that correctly
dumps the expectation mask. Such function uses the l3num value from the
expectation tuple that is a valid layer 3 protocol number. The value of the
l3num mask isn't dumped since it is meaningless from the userspace side.

1. Added definitions for Ethernet, MMC, TWI, USARTs, and SPI peripheral

2. Replaced some hard-coded hex values with the text definitions in
at91rm9200_sys.h.
3. If the USB96M bit is set for PLLB, then the rate of PLLB is not
affected but only the USB Host/Device clocks which are derived from it.

so the ixp2000_has_flash() check in ixdp2x00_master_npu() is useless.
