Don't log machine check events left over from boot. Too many BIOSes leave
bogus events in there.
This unfortunately also makes it impossible to log events that caused a
reboot. For people with non broken BIOS there is mce=bootlog

The patch which went in was correct, but not quite what I had in mind.
Here is a patch to update that a little bit. Original patch is at:

no_overlay bttv parameter implemented to fix OOPS on some PCI chipsets
(like some VIA) with these behaviors:
1) If pci_quicks does identify the chip as having troubles to
handle PCI2PCI transfers, no_overlay defaults to 1. The user may force
it to 0, to reenable (not recommended).
2) For newer chipsets not blacklisted, no_overlay=1 is provided as a
workaround until PCI chipset included on /drivers/pci/quirks.c

- Fixed some bttv card numbers.
- BTTV and SAA7134 version numbers incremented to reflect changes.
- pci_dma_supported() is called after pci_set_dma_mask() which
already did check that for us. This patch removes the unneeded call to
pci_dma_supported() at bttv-driver.c
- Ensure a sufficient I2C bus idle time between 2 messages for
saa7134-i2c.c
- It is important to write at first to MO_GP3_IO for cx88-tvaudio.c
- Use try_to_freeze() instead of refrigerator at msp3400.c
- Recognizing the MFPE05-2 Tuner at tveeprom.c
- Add new parameter to help identify radio chipsets at tuner module:
show_i2c=1 will show 16 reading bytes from detected tuners.
- BTTV does generate some Unimplemented IOCTL log at tuner module:
0x40046d11(dir=1,tp=0x6d,nr=17,sz=4) means that it is sending
MSP3400 calls to non-msp3400 tuners. Warning eliminated.
VIDIOSAUDIO is also called, so debug messages updated. It is still
requiring IOCTL implementation.
- Added two more tuners.
- Add support for the SVideo input on the GDI Black Gold.

scsi_add_host is the proper place to set the device, but people copy
the scsi_set_device usage from older drivers again and again.
note that this leaves some legacy drivers like qlogicisp/qlogicfc

anyway.

The situation: VFS inode X on a mounted ntfs volume is dirty. For
same inode X, the ntfs_inode is dirty and thus corresponding on-disk
inode, i.e. mft record, which is in a dirty PAGE_CACHE_PAGE belonging
to the table of inodes, i.e. $MFT, inode 0.
What happens:
Process 1: sys_sync()/umount()/whatever... calls
__sync_single_inode() for $MFT -> do_writepages() -> write_page for
the dirty page containing the on-disk inode X, the page is now locked
-> ntfs_write_mst_block() which clears PageUptodate() on the page to
prevent anyone else getting hold of it whilst it does the write out.
This is necessary as the on-disk inode needs "fixups" applied before
the write to disk which are removed again after the write and
PageUptodate is then set again. It then analyses the page looking
for dirty on-disk inodes and when it finds one it calls
ntfs_may_write_mft_record() to see if it is safe to write this
on-disk inode. This then calls ilookup5() to check if the
corresponding VFS inode is in icache(). This in turn calls ifind()
which waits on the inode lock via wait_on_inode whilst holding the
global inode_lock.
Process 2: pdflush results in a call to __sync_single_inode for the
same VFS inode X on the ntfs volume. This locks the inode (I_LOCK)
then calls write-inode -> ntfs_write_inode -> map_mft_record() ->
read_cache_page() for the page (in page cache of table of inodes
$MFT, inode 0) containing the on-disk inode. This page has
PageUptodate() clear because of Process 1 (see above) so
read_cache_page() blocks when it tries to take the page lock for the
page so it can call ntfs_read_page().
Thus Process 1 is holding the page lock on the page containing the
on-disk inode X and it is waiting on the inode X to be unlocked in
ifind() so it can write the page out and then unlock the page.
And Process 2 is holding the inode lock on inode X and is waiting for
the page to be unlocked so it can call ntfs_readpage() or discover
that Process 1 set PageUptodate() again and use the page.
Thus we have a deadlock due to ifind() waiting on the inode lock.
The solution: The fix is to use the newly introduced
ilookup5_nowait() which does not wait on the inode's lock and hence
avoids the deadlock. This is safe as we do not care about the VFS
inode and only use the fact that it is in the VFS inode cache and the
fact that the vfs and ntfs inodes are one struct in memory to find
the ntfs inode in memory if present. Also, the ntfs inode has its
own locking so it does not matter if the vfs inode is locked.

inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.
