Move _RET_IP_ and _THIS_IP_ to include/linux/kernel.h

2008-07-05T20:10:50+00:00

These two macros are useful beyond lock debugging. Moved definitions from include/linux/debug_locks.h to include/linux/kernel.h, so code that needs them does not have to include the former, which would have been a less intuitive choice of a header.

cpumask: introduce new APIs

2008-07-04T17:40:09+00:00

In linux-next there is a commit ("x86: Add performance variants of cpumask operators") which, as part of the 4096 cpu support work adds some new APIs for dealing with cpu masks. Add trivial versions of these now so that subsystems can update in a timely manner and avoid conflicts in linux-next and the next merge window.

olpc: sdhci: add quirk for the Marvell CaFe's vdd/powerup issue

2008-07-04T17:40:09+00:00

This has been sitting around unloved for way too long.. The Marvell CaFe chip's SD implementation chokes during card insertion if one attempts to set the voltage and power up in the same SDHCI_POWER_CONTROL register write. This adds a quirk that does that particular dance in two steps. It also adds an entry to pci_ids.h for the CaFe chip's SD device.

security: filesystem capabilities: fix fragile setuid fixup code

2008-07-04T17:40:08+00:00

This commit includes a bugfix for the fragile setuid fixup code in the case that filesystem capabilities are supported (in access()). The effect of this fix is gated on filesystem capability support because changing securebits is only supported when filesystem capabilities support is configured.)

Introduce rculist.h

2008-07-04T17:40:07+00:00

In linux-next there is a commit ("rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h") that moved the rcu related list iterators from list.h to rculist.h. Add a trivial version of the file now so that various subsystem trees can start using it now for -next changes and so reduce the build errors caused by adding uses of the moved functions.

Remove all clameter@sgi.com addresses from the kernel tree since they will become invalid on June 27th. Change my maintainer email address for the slab allocators to cl@linux-foundation.org (which will be the new email address for the future).

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/slab-2.6

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/slab-2.6: slub: Do not use 192 byte sized cache if minimum alignment is 128 byte

slub: Do not use 192 byte sized cache if minimum alignment is 128 byte

2008-07-03T16:01:55+00:00

The 192 byte cache is not necessary if we have a basic alignment of 128 byte. If it would be used then the 192 would be aligned to the next 128 byte boundary which would result in another 256 byte cache. Two 256 kmalloc caches cause sysfs to complain about a duplicate entry. MIPS needs 128 byte aligned kmalloc caches and spits out warnings on boot without this patch. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg
