If our command line contains an ';', we'd only print half of it and execute the other half - not good.

This patch removes the quicklist support and updates m68k to the recent page table and tlb interface changes. It also includes some smaller cleanups: - turn "extern inline" into "static inline" - convert some macros into inline functions

Use the just introduced Rules.make extension to clean up drivers/net/*/Makefile.

New-style Makefiles have a nice way of declaring objects which need to be built either built-in or as modules: obj-$(CONFIG_EEPRO100) += eepro100.o However, handling objects in subdirectories, which need to be built and linked is not as nice: subdir-$(CONFIG_E100) += e100 ifeq ($(CONFIG_E100),y) obj-y += e100/built-in.o endif This means we descend into the subdirectory when building vmlinux / modules, depending on CONFIG_XXX. When we are building vmlinux we also need to link whatever has been built in the subdirectory, so we add it to $(obj-y) at the appropriate place (link order is important). Now, the extension below allows to rewrite the second case into obj-$(CONFIG_E100) += e100/ which looks much nicer ;-) Existing behavior is not changed, and the only prerequisite to using the extension above is that the O_TARGET in the subdir is named "built-in.o".

Trivial patch update against 2.5.17: Tim Schmielau <tim@physik3.uni-rostock.de>: move jiffies from sched.h to it's own jiffies.h: Move 'jiffies' from sched.h to their own header. Then pull the sched.h dependency from 67 files that include sched.h for no apparent reason other than the jiffies declaration. Move the time_[before,after}{_eq}() macros from timer.h to jiffies.h, since there are *no* files using them that don't also use jiffies. Many more sched.h dependencies can be killed after capable(), request_irq(), and free_irq() are moved out of <linux/sched.h>. Tim Schmielau <tim@physik3.uni-rostock.de>

Trivial patch update against 2.5.17: dipankar@in.ibm.com: smp_call_function change: My earlier patch fixed only i386. As per Dave Miller's suggestion, I have fixed smp_call_function for other smp architectures too. Description ----------- Going by the documentation and use of _bh version of spin_lock(), smp_call_function() is allowed to be called from BH context, We can run into a deadlock with some locks if we do so. This because reader-writer locks can sometimes be used optimally by not disabling irqs while taking the reader side if only the reader side of the lock is taken from irq context. CPU #0 CPU #1 read_lock(&tasklist_lock) write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock) [spins with interrupt disabled] [Interrupted by BH] smp_call_function() for BH handler [ doesn't take the IPI] So, cpu #1 doesn't take the IPI and cpu #0 spinwaits for the IPI handler to start, resulting in a deadlock. The last time I looked, I couldn't see smp_call_function() being called from BH context anywhere. So, there is no immediate problem. However it seems right to correct the documentation and also not disable BH while taking the call lock since it isn't necessary. This patch does exactly that. Thanks -- Dipankar Sarma <dipankar@in.ibm.com> http://lse.sourceforge.net Linux Technology Center, IBM Software Lab, Bangalore, India. smp_call_func-2.5.14-1.patch ----------------------------

Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>: fix for sigio delivery: Hi Linus, This patch means that we keep the upper 16 bits of the si_code field of the siginfo structure that is delivered with and SIGIOs. We need this so that the code that actually copies the siginfo_t out to user mode knows which part of the union to copy. We currently get away with out this information because we always copy at least two ints worth of the union, but this s an ugly hack and I would like to tidy it up. Comments?

"Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl>: [patch] 2.4.19-pre7: A few declance multicast updates: Hello, It seems all Ethernet device drivers were bulk-converted to use the new common CRC functions. I discovered declance used incorrect endianness to calculate the sum for its multicast filter and had a few alignment problems there. I fixed these bugs in the MIPS/Linux CVS tree which is at 2.4.18 now. Here is the respective update for the official kernel. The bugs make the filter non-functional. Please apply. Maciej

nfsd_acceptable() calls permission() on a a dentry that is not guaranteed to stay around (its child is pinned down, but there is no promises that child won't move and nothing pins dentry itself). Fixed, cleaned up.

Currently fs.h is full of unrelated declarations and included in almost any source file. Thus it makes sense to spilt certain aspects out that are only used by few users. This patch starts with the namei/path lookup interface and splits it into <linux/namei.h> which is now directly included by the 24 files that actually need it.

OK, it turned out that since the last time I've done that audit a couple new users of d_parent had appeared. First, more crapectomy (strictly speaking not necessary, but just look at that code - where the hell does IBM find them?)

- Apply small host chip driver cosmetics by Andrej xxx Panin and Vojtech Pavlik. - Remove support for "disc recovery time". It could only supposedly help with really simplistic broken devices from the past, which didn't have moderately sophisticated controllers. And finally Vojtech voted for it as well... so I just trust him. - Apply icside host chip driver and other ARM related updates by Russell King, which finally settle the "portability" work a bit, well hopefully.
