| * [PATCH] I2C: Move hwmon drivers (3/3)Jean Delvare2005-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Part 3: Move the drivers documentation, plus two general documentation files. Note that the patch "adds trailing whitespace", because it does move the files as-is, and some files happen to have trailing whitespace.

| * [PATCH] I2C: minor I2C doc cleanupsdavid-b@pacbell.net2005-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The I2C stack has long had "id" fields, of rather dubious utility, in many data structures. This removes mention of one of them from the documentation about how to write an I2C driver, so that only drivers that really need to use them (probably old/legacy code) will have any reason to use this field.

* | [PATCH] USB: Patch to make usbmon to print control setup packetsPete Zaitcev2005-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make usbmon to print Setup packets of Control transfers. This is useful when debugging enumeration issues. This is a change to the trace format which is not fully compatible. A parser has to look at the data length word now. If that word is a character like 's', read setup packet before proceeding with data. I decided not to bump the API tag for this because not many such parsers exist at this point.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Schedule removal of the PCMCIA ioctl (and thus kernel support for the pcmcia-cs userspace package) for November 2005. A big "thank you" to Dave Hinds for his great work on supporting PCMCIA in Linux. Things are just done differently by now, so the ongoing work to make PCMCIA behave like any other hotpluggable bus should continue.

* [PATCH] irqpollAlan Cox2005-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Anyone reporting a stuck IRQ should try these options. Its effectiveness varies we've found in the Fedora case. Quite a few systems with misdescribed IRQ routing just work when you use irqpoll. It also fixes up the VIA systems although thats now fixed with the VIA quirk (which we could just make default as its what Redmond OS does but Linus didn't like it historically). A small number of systems have jammed IRQ sources or misdescribes that cause an IRQ that we have no handler registered anywhere for. In those cases it doesn't help.

| * | [PATCH] PCI Allow OutOfRange PIRQ table addressjayalk@intworks.biz2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I updated this to remove unnecessary variable initialization, make check_routing be inline only and not __init, switch to strtoul, and formatting fixes as per Randy Dunlap's recommendations. I updated this to change pirq_table_addr to a long, and to add a warning msg if the PIRQ table wasn't found at the specified address, as per thread with Matthew Wilcox. In our hardware situation, the BIOS is unable to store or generate it's PIRQ table in the F0000h-100000h standard range. This patch adds a pci kernel parameter, pirqaddr to allow the bootloader (or BIOS based loader) to inform the kernel where the PIRQ table got stored. A beneficial side-effect is that, if one's BIOS uses a static address each time for it's PIRQ table, then pirqaddr can be used to avoid the $pirq search through that address block each time at boot for normal PIRQ BIOSes.

Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all kernel sources except sched.h 3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver 4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN). This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE.
