From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Recent testing has shown that swapoff can sneak a page back into the tmpfs page cache after truncate_inode_pages has cleaned it, before shmem_truncate resets next_index to stop that: BUG_ON(inode->i_blocks) in shmem_delete_inode. So call truncate_inode_pages again to be safe.

From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Make add_to_swap_cache static, it's only used by read_swap_cache_async; and since that has just done a GFP_HIGHUSER allocation, surely it's better for add_to_swap_cache to use GFP_KERNEL than GFP_ATOMIC.

From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Raised #endif CONFIG_SWAP in shrink_list, it was excluding try_to_unmap of file pages. Suspect !CONFIG_MMU relied on that to suppress try_to_unmap, added SWAP_FAIL stub for it.

From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Brian spotted a stupid bug in the slab initialization: If multiple objects fit into one cacheline, then the allocator ignores SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN and squeezes the objects into the same cacheline. The implementation contains an off by one error and thus doesn't work correctly: For Athlon optimized kernels, the 32-byte slab uses 64 byte of memory.

From: Eric Piel <Eric.Piel@Bull.Net> Fixes some long/int confusion on 64-bit machines which was causing failures on ia64 - we end up trying to set bits in the 32-63 range on an int and the kernel locks up. Also cleans up idr.h. George has acked this change.

The patch is designed to help locate where the kernel is dying during the startup sequence. - Boot parameter "initcall_debug" causes the kernel to print out the address of each initcall before calling it. The kallsyms tables do not cover __init sections, so printing the symbolic version of these symbols doesn't work. They need to be looked up in System.map. - Detect whether an initcall returns with interrupts disabled or with a locking imbalance. If it does, complain and then try to fix it up.

This fixes ipmi compilation (with some documentation updates and another minor fix, too). It also fixes a problem with the state machine getting stuck in a certain error condition.

The following patch by Joe Korty removes an over-zealous check in the NFS read code that causes pages to be incorrectly marked with PG_error and hence causes an EIO to be returned to userland. The test is incorrect as it ignores the fact that we may be caching a write that will extend the file on the server (and hence will create a hole in the region concerned.).

and drop the 'flags' argument (it was always set too LOOKUP_PARENT). If the user supplies and empty path, return -ENOENT.

Doing this ensures that we keep probing the connection to the server rather than just waiting for the entire congestion window to time out. The latter can be very expensive due to the exponential backoff rule.

From: Daniel McNeil <daniel@osdl.org> This fixes an oops caused by incorrect usage of sector_div() in which_dev() in md/linear.c. It was dereferencing an non-existent hash table entry.

We currently hold a read_lock of dparent_lock while calling exp_get_by_name on several ancestors of a given dentry. However exp_get_by_name can malloc(GFP_KERNEL), so that isn't a good idea. Now we only claim the lock while actually stepping up the parent chain. This addresses bug 29 @ bugme.osdl.org

NFSv4 operations after WRITE are decoded into wr_vec[] pages, thus the argp->pagelen can be non-zero at the end of decoding the WRITE operation. This patch correctly sets argp->pagelen, and correctly advances argp->p after the WRITE operation
