      [PATCH] Patch - sharing RTC timer between kernel and user space (2nd) · dd56376d
      Jaroslav Kysela authored
      This patch to allow using of RTC timer inside the kernel space.  We can
      use the RTC timer as timing source for ALSA sequencer. Patch by Takashi.
      
      The patch adds these three functions and one structure to rtc.h and
      rtc.c:
      
      typedef struct rtc_task {
             void (*func)(void *private_data);
             void *private_data;
      } rtc_task_t;
      
      int rtc_register(rtc_task_t *task);
      int rtc_unregister(rtc_task_t *task);
      int rtc_control(rtc_task_t *t, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg);

      [PATCH] later DMI scan. · 9b1c51ab
      Dave Jones authored
      This moves the dmi scan to an earlier stage so that we can trap issues
      such as the various laptops that don't like enabling APIC.
      It's likely to be useful for trapping other similar early-boot problems.

      [PATCH] un'fix' NCR scsi driver. · 3679a65c
      Dave Jones authored
      Linus,
       Current driver in your tree has been 'fixed' by someone without
      understanding just how broken it was. Numerous fixes were done in 2.4
      after the 2.5 split by Alan.
      
      This patch reverts the damage the driver does in your tree, and brings
      Alan's 2.4 bits over instead. Downside: It doesn't compile.
      Upside: It doesn't pretend to work and corrupt data, and at least
      is the right base for people to start fixing.

      [PATCH] kdev_t search/replaces. · 16d6f850
      Dave Jones authored
      First batch of various kdev_t related changes that have accumulated on
      linux-kernel, and some that got sent directly to me after you dropped them.
      
      Some of these need additional fixes to make them work, Some of them
      even to make them compile, but this is one step forward..
      
      I have bio-related fixes for some of these also, I'll push those seperately.

      - cleanup patch from Hugh Dickins, fix up drivers to use vmalloc_to_page() instead of local hacks of uvirt_to_kva(). (and related fixes.)

      - new, less intrusive and faster migration method:
      
      /*
       * This is how migration works:
       *
       * 1) we queue a migration_req_t structure in the source CPU's
       *    runqueue and wake up that CPU's migration thread.
       * 2) we down() the locked semaphore => thread blocks.
       * 3) migration thread wakes up (implicitly it forces the migrated
       *    thread off the CPU)
       * 4) it gets the migration request and checks whether the migrated
       *    task is still in the wrong runqueue.
       * 5) if it's in the wrong runqueue then the migration thread removes
       *    it and puts it into the right queue.
       * 6) migration thread up()s the semaphore.
       * 7) we wake up and the migration is done.
