(both for native and x86 system call tracing). This is needed by recent versions of strace and UML likes to do that, too.

The x86 build depends on NR_VECTORS being defined. This symbol, however, was put only into mach-default/irq_vectors.h The attached patch adds it to voyager too.

process. The root-cause of the problem was that ptrace() tried to copy the portion of the register backing store that landed on the kernel stack back to users-space, but the resulting state was inconsistent if the inferior process was in the middle of a system-call (as would always be the case for strace). The solution is to avoid all needless copying and to instead ensure that when accessing a memory location that may belong to a thread's register-backing store, we attach to that particular thread, rather than the thread identified by the PID argument. If the thread happens to be unattachable, we fall back to using the thread identified by the PID argument. This should have the desired effect if the thread has terminated already and if the thread is running while ptrace() is trying to access its state, all bets are off anyhow and there are no coherency guarantees. In other words, this should be doing the right thing under all circumstances. The patch also fixes the case where PT_AR_BSP and/or PT_CFM are written while the inferior process is in the middle of a system call. This makes arguments passed to GDB inferior calls come out right. The patch was tested with strace -f and the GDB testsuite, which showed no regressions compared to the previous version of the kernel.

The old 50ms / 30ms timeouts apparently weren't sufficient with some disks.

The reworked firmware loader in the DVB patches needs the fix to the call_usermodehelper() return value. From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> MODULE_ALIAS_BLOCK() and MODULE_ALIAS_CHAR() define aliases of form "XXX-<major>-<minor>", so we should probe for modules using this form. Unfortunately in 2.4, block aliases were "XXX-<major>" and char aliases were of both forms. Ideally, all modules would now be using MODULE_ALIAS() macros to define their aliases, and the old configuration files wouldn't matter as much. Unfortunately, this hasn't happened, so we make request_module() return the exit status of modprobe, and then do fallback when probing for char and block devices. (Kudos to Chris Wright, I stole his kernel_thread flags).

From: David Hinds <dhinds@sonic.net> This fixes interrupt allocation for 16-bit PCMCIA cards, so that on systems supporting ISA bus interrupts, if all ISA interrupts are unavailable, we'll fall back on sharing the bridge PCI interrupt.

From: David Hinds <dhinds@sonic.net> I have not been actively maintaining PCMCIA for 2.6; I tried asking the more active developers to see if someone would step into the job but they were not willing to do so at this time. I'll still submit patches from time to time. (David has a ./CREDITS entry, of course). We should really put in Russell King here, but I'll let him do that himself.

From: Tom Rini <trini@kernel.crashing.org> Peter Wahl <PeterWahl@web.de> PPC32: Fix the mkprep util to work correctly on Solaris 8. - There is a very odd problem with the alignment of dword_t values which causes this program to not work correctly when compiled on Solaris 8. The workaround is not use a pointer and to memcpy the values instead.

From: Tom Rini <trini@kernel.crashing.org> The following patch fixes the 'znetboot' and 'znetbootrd' targets so that they work again. - Update the comments to reflect how things work with the correct usages now. - Fix the znetboot / znetbootrd targets. We now always set end-y, and use this to figure out what image will be tftpboot'ed.

From: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com> The compiler justly complains in this: unsigned int regnr = *(loff_t *) v, i; if (regnr == 0) { seq_puts(p, " "); #ifdef CONFIG_SMP for (i = 0; i < NR_CPUS; i++) #endif seq_printf(p, " CPU%02d ", i); That i is uninitialised if CONFIG_SMP is not set.
