This patch adds the following command line option: ftrace_graph_filter=function-list Where function-list is a comma separated list of functions to filter.

This is due to the wrong volume-knob widget setup. The delta bit (bit 7) shouldn't be set for these devices. This patch adds a new quirk to set the value 0x7f to the widget 0x24 instead of 0xff.

When Robert added multiqueue support in commit 45b270f8, he added an interval (queue_map_min, queue_map_max), and his code doesnt take into account the case of min = max, to select one tx queue exactly. I suspect a high performance setup on a eight txqueue device wants to use exactly eight cpus, and assign one tx queue to each sender. This patchs makes pktgen select the right tx queue, not the first one. Also updates Documentation to reflect Robert changes.

Clarify the semantics of the cgroup.procs and tasks files. Although the current cgroup.procs interface returns a sorted and uniqified list of pids, potential future performance enhancements could result in those properties being removed - explicitly document this aspect of the API. There are no existing users of cgroup.procs, so compatibility isn't an issue. There are users of the "tasks" file, but none that would appear to break in the event of the sorted property being broken. The standard "libcpuset" explicitly sorts the results of reading from the tasks file, and "libcg" and other users don't appear to care about ordering.

There is no way for the user to switch KSM on if CONFIG_SYSFS is not enabled, so in that case default run to KSM_RUN_MERGE. Update KSM Documentation and Kconfig to reflect the new defaults.

If you specify "earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,115200" as a kernel argument, the "serial,ttyS" should be parsed as a single argument and not as "serial" and then "ttyS". Also update the documentation to reflect you can specify the ttyS directly without the "serial" argument.

So we can get rid of the ugly module parameters and the detect callbacks. This shrinks the binary module sizes by 36% and 46%, respectively.
