Fix the order of inodes being marked dirty in a couple of corner cases. The only impact of this bug is that the on-disk copies of i_version might got out of sync for a directory, or that an error inserting an inode into a directory might leave its i_nlinks incorrect on disk for a short interval. Neither problem will cause trouble for ext3 during normal operation, but the nlink problem might cause e2fsck to emit unnecessary warnings if we crash while the incorrect version of the inode is in the journal.

Removes the put_iode optimisation. It's racy, as Chris pointed out.

ext3 will remount the fs readonly if it runs out of inode space. It shouldn't do that - it should just return -ENOSPC.

A couple of targets were still in the main part of the Makefile, even though they did not need .config to exist for execution. Move them into the noconfig section of the Makefile, allowing them to be executed before make *config.

amd7930_fn.h defined a static array, which however was only used in one of the files which include amd7930_fn.h. So move the array to the file where it is actually referenced. While we're at it, do some more cleanup like removing the #defines for BYTE,WORD and use u16,u8 instead - WORD was even wrongly defined to unsigned int. Also, convert some macros to inlines etc.

The eicon header defined macros for byte, word, dword. Apart from that not being a good idea in general, it did clash with the use of a parameter called "word" in asm/signal.h. At some other place in the Eicon headers, there are also typedefs for these types, so the macros can simply go away.

The always-appreciated Stanford Checker found a memory leak in net/socket.c :: sock_fasync. It was a bit tricky since the memory was only conditionally allocated, so must only conditionally be freed.

This patch fixes the Compaq WL210 problems I've been having. The symptoms were that no interupts were ever received from the card; the BIOS reported it had assigned INTA to IRQ 10; but the yenta driver reported IRQ 17. The fix is not to rely on the BIOS's initialisation of interrupt routing in the TI1410, but to do it explicitly. This may break laptops that actually use the parallel ISA IRQ mechanism.

Many old ISA drivers are not 64bit clean. To avoid dealing with them on x86-64 I guarded them with CONFIG_ISA. This is also helpful for other archs (including modern x86) that do not have ISA slots anymore. The patch has been reviewed by Linux-Kernel, with some additional cleanups by me. It misses some directories like ISDN or sound drivers.

This fixes a potential security issue on i386. FXRSTOR raises an #GP when the MXCSR field in the FXSAVE frame contains illegal values. By putting an signal frame just at a border to an unmapped page a malicious user could potentially cause an exception in the context switch using this. When the EFAULT occurs in the last bytes of the signal frame the MXCSR check would be skipped in the old code, but the rogue value would be already in task_struct, causing problems later. Here is the minimal fix for this. Originally discovered by Andrea while doing x86-64 work. It was fixed in a different way a bit more intrusive way on x86-64 - all FXRSTOR in the kernel are guarded by exception handlers.

It's nearly impossible to get the correct CPU names for AMD CPUs in the MP table (would need BIOS calls etc.). The decoding of CPU names form the mptable doesn't look too useful anyways, because the correct CPU name from CPUID is printed only a few lines later. This patch just removes the name table and replaces it with a printout of the hex value. This mirrors a change in x86-64

Remove myself as networking maintainer. I haven't done much for networking for a long time and it doesn't look likely it'll change anytime soon. Also David/Alexey are doing a fine job without me.

Here is the big 2.5.21 x86-64 sync patch. It only touches arch/x86_64 and include/asm-x86_64. It requires a few other changes that I'm sending in separate mail. Changes: - merge wit 2.5.21 - merge from 2.5.21/i386 (new PCI code, new LDT code etc.) - sync with 2.4-x86_64 tree. - minor updates to 32bit emulation - better early console; including serial support. - now set up dummy PDA for booting to avoid problems - Fix GS reloading in context switch one instruction race - Remove hardcoded names from mpparse code - Fix inline assembly for RAID-5 xor (similar change needed for i386) - Real per cpu data support based on PDA field - Cleanup of offset.c generation requested by Kai: it only puts structure offsets into offset.h now. - Fix i387 fxsave signal frame problems. - Add uname emulation via personality ("linux32") - New SSE optimized checksum-copy, copy*user, memcpy, clear_page, copy_page functions. Other tunings/cleanups in checksum and other user memory access function. - check if exception table is really sorted - Cleanups in page table handling in preparation of non executable pages support. - Cleanup PDA access to not require offset.h (thanks to kai for kicking me to this) - use long long for u64/s64 to avoid more warnings - remove CONFIG_ISA - fix various bugs and other cleanups
