      [PATCH] shmdt bugfix · 33487c87
      Andrew Morton authored
      Patch from Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>
      
      Fixes the Oracle startup problem reported by Alessandro Suardi.
      
      Reverts a "simplification" to shmdt() which was wrong if subsequent
      mprotects broke up the original VMA, or if parts of it were munmapped.

      [PATCH] misc · a838ea3b
      Andrew Morton authored
      - I hit a BUG in end_swap_bio_read() under heavy load.  The page
        wasn't locked.  No idea how this can happen :(
      
        Add a BUG at submission time to catch a caller reading into an
        unlocked swapcache page.
      
      - Remove a debug check from destroy_inode() - it was in the wrong leg
        of the `if' statement anyway.

      [PATCH] kNFSd - 2 of 2 - Change NFSv4 reply encoding to cope with multiple pages. · dcffe12e
      Neil Brown authored
      This allows NFSv4 responses to cover move than one page.  There are
      still limits though.  There can be at most one 'data' response which
      includes READ, READLINK, READDIR.  For these responses, the interesting
      data goes in a separate page or, for READ, list of pages.
      
      All responses before the 'data' response must fit in one page, and all
      responses after it must also fit in one (separate) page.

      [PATCH] kNFSd - 1 of 2 - Change NFSv4 xdr decoding to cope with separate pages. · 89fc0a31
      Neil Brown authored
      Now that nfsd uses a list of pages for requests instead of
      one large buffer, NFSv4 need to know about this.
      
      The most interesting part of this is that it is possible
      that section of a request, like a path name, could span
      two pages, so we need to be able to kmalloc as little bit
      of space to copy them into, and make sure they get
      freed later.

      [PATCH] disable old stat on ppc64 · 586a5a35
      Anton Blanchard authored
      We don't implement the ancient stat syscalls on ppc64 since early libcs
      wont run on ppc64 (they hardcode the incorrect cacheline size).

      [PATCH] Split buffer overflow checking out of struct nfs4_compound · dccb90df
      Trond Myklebust authored
      Here is the a pre-patch in the attempt to get rid of 'struct
      nfs4_compound', and the associated horrible union in 'struct
      nfs4_op'.
      
      It splits out the fields that are meant to do buffer overflow checking
      and iovec adjusting on the XDR received/sent data. It moves support
      for that nto the dedicated structure 'xdr_stream', and the associated
      functions 'xdr_reserve_space()', 'xdr_inline_decode()'.
      
      The patch also expands out the all macros ENCODE_HEAD, ENCODE_TAIL,
      ADJUST_ARGS and DECODE_HEAD, as well as most of the DECODE_TAILs.

      [PATCH] cpufreq: cleanups · 0c7eef6a
      Dominik Brodowski authored
      This changes the return type of the verify and setpolicy functions from
      void to int.  While doing this, I've changed the values for minimum and
      maximum supported frequency to be per CPU, as UltraSPARC needs this.
      
      Additionally, small cleanups in various drivers.

      [PATCH] PCI: rename exported pbus_* functions · 645e448c
      Ivan Kokshaysky authored
      Traditional naming in pci/setup-xx code assumes that
      pdev_*/pbus_* functions are private, everything visible
      from outer world should be pci_*.

      [PATCH] sonypi driver update · eaac83e4
      Stelian Pop authored
      The most important changes are:
      	* add suspend/resume support to the sonypi driver (not

      	* add camera and lid events for C1XE (Kunihiko IMAI);
      	* add a mask parameter letting the user choose what kind
      	  of events he wants;
      	* use ACPI ec_read/ec_write when available in order to
      	  play nice when latest ACPI is enabled;
      	* several source cleanups.

      [PATCH] fcntl fix · 619a67aa
      Andries E. Brouwer authored
      Today we return EINVAL for fcntl with a lock with negative length.
      POSIX-2001 says that the lock covers start .. start+len-1 if len >= 0
      and start+len .. start-1 if len < 0.
