*	[PATCH] s390: 64 bit diag250 support	Horst Hummel	2005-09-05
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Add support for diag 250 access to dasd devices for 64 bit kernels. In addition fix detach/attach for diag disks. The VM control block needs to get recreated by a call to mdsk_init_io.

*	[PATCH] s390: deadlock in dasd_devmap	Horst Hummel	2005-09-05
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Reintroduce a read-only copy of the devmap features in the device struct. This is necessary to solve a deadlock on the dasd_devmap_lock which is acquired by dasd_get_features called from the dasd tasklet. The current implementation of devmap doesn't allow to call any devmap function from interrupt or softirq context.

*	[PATCH] s390: fba dasd i/o errors	Horst Hummel	2005-07-27
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The FBA discipline does not use retries for failed requests. A request fails after the first unsuccessful start attempt. There are some rare conditions (e.g. CIO path recovery) in which the start of an i/o on a fba device can fail. A tiny amount of retries is therefore reasonable.

*	[PATCH] s390: debug feature changes	Michael Holzheu	2005-06-25
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch changes the memory allocation method for the s390 debug feature. Trace buffers had been allocated using the get_free_pages() function before. Therefore it was not possible to get big memory areas in a running system due to memory fragmentation. Now the trace buffers are subdivided into several subbuffers with pagesize. Therefore it is now possible to allocate more memory for the trace buffers and more trace records can be written. In addition to that, dynamic specification of the size of the trace buffers is implemented. It is now possible to change the size of a trace buffer using a new debugfs file instance. When writing a number into this file, the trace buffer size is changed to 'number * pagesize'. In the past all the traces could be obtained from userspace by accessing files in the "proc" filesystem. Now with debugfs we have a new filesystem which should be used for debugging purposes. This patch moves the debug feature from procfs to debugfs. Since the interface of debug_register() changed, all device drivers, which use the debug feature had to be adjusted.

\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	dasd driver changes: - The feature check in dasd_generic_online returns an error if the devmap entry for the device is not yet available.

*	[PATCH] s390: don't pad cdl blocks for write requests	Horst Hummel	2005-05-01
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The first blocks on a cdl formatted dasd device are smaller than the blocksize of the device. Read requests are padded with a 'e5' pattern. Write requests should not pad the (user) buffer with 'e5' because a write request is not allowed to modify the buffer.

*	[PATCH] s390: enable write barriers in the dasd driver	Stefan Weinhuber	2005-05-01
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The DASD device driver never reorders the I/O requests and relies on the hardware to write all data to nonvolatile storage before signaling a successful write. Hence, the only thing we have to do to support write barriers is to set the queue ordered flag.

*	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-16
	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!
