| * [PATCH] SPI: spi_butterfly, restore lost deltasDavid Brownell2006-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This resolves some minor version skew glitches that accumulated for the AVR Butterfly adapter driver, which caused among other things the existence of a duplicate Kconfig entry. Most of it boils down to comment updates, but in one case it removes some now-superfluous code that would be better if not copied into other controller-level drivers.

| * [PATCH] IB: fix up major/minor sysfs interface for IB coreGreg Kroah-Hartman2006-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current IB code doesn't work with userspace programs that listen only to the kernel event netlink socket as it is trying to create its own dev interface. This small patch fixes this problem, and removes some unneeded code as the driver core handles this logic for you automatically.

| * | [PATCH] hwmon: Fix reboot on it87 driver loadJean Delvare2006-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Only scan I2C address 0x2d. This is the default address and no IT87xxF chip was ever seen on I2C at a different address. These chips are better accessed through their ISA interface anyway. This fixes bug #5889, although it doesn't address the whole class of problems. We'd need the ability to blacklist arbitrary I2C addresses on systems known to contain I2C devices which behave badly when probed. Plan the I2C interface for removal as well. If nobody complains within a year, it will confirm my impression that the I2C interface isn't actually needed by anyone.

| * | [PATCH] hwmon: New f71805f driverJean Delvare2006-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is my f71805f hardware monitoring driver ported from lm_sensors to Linux 2.6. This new driver differs from the other hardware monitoring drivers in that it is implemented as a platform driver. This might not be optimal yet (we would probably need a generic infrastructure and bus type for Super-I/O logical devices) but it is certainly much better than the i2c-isa solution. Note that this driver requires lm_sensors CVS. I hope to get it released as 2.10.0 soon. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_unshare system call handler function accepts the same flags as clone system call, checks constraints on each of the flags and invokes corresponding unshare functions to disassociate respective process context if it was being shared with another task. Here is the link to a program for testing unshare system call. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/audit/unshare_test.c?download Please note that because of a problem in rmdir associated with bind mounts and clone with CLONE_NEWNS, the test fails while trying to remove temporary test directory. You can remove that temporary directory by doing rmdir, twice, from the command line. The first will fail with EBUSY, but the second will succeed. I have reported the problem to Ram Pai and Al Viro with a small program which reproduces the problem. Al told us yesterday that he will be looking at the problem soon. I have tried multiple rmdirs from the unshare_test program itself, but for some reason that is not working. Doing two rmdirs from command line does seem to remove the directory.

* | [PATCH] Fix spinlock debugging delays to not time out too earlyIngo Molnar2006-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The spinlock-debug wait-loop was using loops_per_jiffy to detect too long spinlock waits - but on fast CPUs this led to a way too fast timeout and false messages. The fix is to include a __delay(1) call in the loop, to correctly approximate the intended delay timeout of 1 second. The code assumes that every architecture implements __delay(1) to last around 1/(loops_per_jiffy*HZ) seconds.

* | [PATCH] mm: compound release fixNick Piggin2006-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compound pages on SMP systems can now often be freed from pagetables via the release_pages path. This uses put_page_testzero which does not handle compound pages at all. Releasing constituent pages from process mappings decrements their count to a large negative number and leaks the reference at the head page - net result is a memory leak. The problem was hidden because the debug check in put_page_testzero itself actually did take compound pages into consideration. Fix the bug and the debug check.
