From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> Some latency improvements for the reiserfs data=ordered code from Takashi.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> reiserfs_unmap_buffer should clean and wait on all buffers. This fixes a leak under fsx workloads.

From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> Add reiserfs support for laptop mode.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> reiserfs_file_write makes a hole one block too large if it is the first thing in the file.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> Fix reiserfs_writepage so it doesn't race with data=ordered writes. This still has a pending fix to redirty the page when it finds a locked buffer. Waiting for Andrew to finish sorting that out on ext3 first.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> Repacking a tail might leave a journal handle attached to an unmapped buffer. If that buffer gets dirtied again (via mmap for example), the reiserfs data=ordered code might try to write the dirty unmapped buffer to disk. The fix is to make sure we remove the journal handle when we unmap buffers.

From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> Enable preallocation for reiserfs_file_write when the write size is smaller than the default preallocation size.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> reiserfs logging rework, making things much faster for small transactions. metadata buffers are dirtied when they are safe to write, so normal kernel mechanisms can contribute to log cleaning.

From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> reiserfs cleanup, get rid of old debugging code.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> reiserfs support for nested transactions. This originally came from Peter Braam for 2.4.x and was ported forward by Jeff Mahoney.

Andrew Morton authored
ext3 transaction batching has been ineffective since the scheduler changes forced us to replace the yield() with a schedule(). Using schedule_timeout(1) fixes it up again. Benchmarking is positive with wither a 1 or 10 millisecond delay in there, so there appears to be no need to play around with HZ.

From: Kurt Garloff <garloff@suse.de> A patch to parse the elf binaries for a PT_GNU_STACK section to set the stack non-executable if possible. Most parts have been shamelessly stolen from Ingo Molnar's more ambitious stackshield http://people.redhat.com/mingo/exec-shield/exec-shield-2.6.4-C9 The toolchain has meanwhile support for marking the binaries with a PT_GNU_STACK section wwithout x bit as needed. If no such section is found, we leave the stack to whatever the arch defaults to. If there is one, we explicitly disabled the VM_EXEC bit if no x bit is found, otherwise explicitly enable.

From: Olaf Kirch <okir@suse.de> The attached patch fixes a problem with the 32bit statfs call on NFS file systems. Some NFS servers return a value of -1 for the f_files and f_ffree. The current code would think this is a 64bit value that cannot be converted to 32bits. Consequently, the system call would always fail. The patch adds two special if() to detect a value of -1 for f_files and f_ffree.

From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org> This is a update for the cx88 driver. There are *lots* of changes: * vbi support was added. * plenty of fixes for audio support (there are still problems through). * new cards added. * serveral minor tweaks.

From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org> This patch updates the bttv driver. Changes: (1) several card-specific tweaks. (2) make software vs. hardware i2c configurable per TV card. (3) reinitialize image parameters after chip reset. (4) make bttv quite by default on frame drops. (5) new insmod option: "debug_latency=1" to enable frame drop debug messages. bttv is quite sensitive to irq latencies, especially when capturing both video and vbi. There are several reports about problems due to this, I don't see that on my machines through. (5) dumps a stracktrace if the driver thinks the frame drop is is caused by high latencies as experiment, lets see whenever that helps ...

From: Olaf Kirch <okir@suse.de> Some NFS clients respond badly to a TCP connection being reset immediately after it has been accepted so: - Accept more connections before starting to drop them - Always drop the oldest connection - Random Early Drop doesn't really help here, and can hurt - ratelimit the friendly warnings.

From: Romain Francoise <romain@orebokech.com> arch/sparc64/mm/hugetlbpage.c does not include linux/module.h so EXPORT_SYMBOL prints out warnings, and since sparc64 Makefiles have -Werror, the build fails.
