* [PATCH] DAC960: add support for Mylex AcceleRAID 4/5/600Christoph Hellwig2005-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for a new class of DAC960 controllers. It's based on the GPLed idac320 driver from IBM for Linux 2.4.18. That driver is a fork of the 2.4.18 version of DAC960 that adds support for this new type of controllers (internally called "GEM Series"), that differ from other DAC960 V2 firmware controllers only in the register offsets and removes support for all others. This patch instead integrates support for these controllers into the DAC960 driver. Thanks to Anders Norrbring for pointing me to the idac320 driver and testing this patch. No Signed-Off: line because all code is either copy & pasted from IBM's idac320 driver or support for other controllers in the 2.6 DAC960 driver. Note: the really odd formating matches the rest of the DAC960 driver. Cc: Dave Olien <dmo@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] nbd: Don't create all MAX_NBD devices by default all the timeLars Marowsky-Bree2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | This patches adds the "nbds_max" parameter to the nbd kernel module, which limits the number of nbds allocated. Previously, always all 128 entries were allocated unconditionally, which used to waste resources and needlessly flood the hotplug system with events. (Defaults to 16 now.)

* [PATCH] noop-iosched: kill O(N) merge scanJens Axboe2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | Profiling hit rates on merging shows that the last merge hint works extremely well for most work loads. So lets kill the linear merge scan in noop-iosched, so it provides O(1) run time for any operation. Testing credits go to Ken Chen from Intel.

* [PATCH] broken dependency for floppy on ARMAl Viro2005-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | (!ARCH_S390 && !M68K && !IA64 && !UML) is obviously always true on ARM. Intended behaviour for ARM is "absent unless we are on RiscPC or EBSA285". So what we want is added && !ARM in the first term - without it the last part (|| ARCH_RPC || ARCH_EBSA285, that is) doesn't do anything.

* | [PATCH] fix NMI lockup with CFQ scheduler2005-04-16
|/ | | | | | | | | | The current problem seen is that the queue lock is actually in the SCSI device structure, so when that structure is freed on device release, we go boom if the queue tries to access the lock again. The fix here is to move the lock from the scsi_device to the queue. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

* [PATCH] use cheaper elv_queue_empty when unplug a deviceKen Chen2005-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | In function __generic_unplug_device(), kernel can use a cheaper function elv_queue_empty() instead of more expensive elv_next_request to find whether the queue is empty or not. blk_run_queue can also made conditional on whether queue's emptiness before calling request_fn().

* [PATCH] possible use-after-free of bioJens Axboe2005-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a possibility that a bio will be accessed after it has been freed on SCSI. It happens if you submit a bio with BIO_SYNC marked and the auto-unplugging kicks the request_fn, SCSI re-enables interrupts in-between so if the request completes between the add_request() in __make_request() and the bio_sync() call, we could be looking at a dead bio. It's a slim race, but it has been triggered in the Real World. So assign bio_sync() to a local variable instead.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
