* [PATCH] uml: hostfs: unuse ROOT_DEVPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | Minimal patch removing uses of ROOT_DEV; next patch unexports it. I've opposed this, but I've planned to reintroduce the functionality without using ROOT_DEV.

* [PATCH] uml: remove 2_5compat.hJeff Dike2005-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | Remove old useless header that was used in Ye Olde Times during 2.4->2.5 porting to abstract differences. It's definitions are no more used anyway, so let's finally kill it.

* [PATCH] uml - hostfs: avoid buffersPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use this: .set_page_dirty = __set_page_dirty_nobuffers, We already dropped the inclusion of <linux/buffer_head.h>, and we don't have a backing block device for this FS. "Without having looked at it, I'm sure that hostfs does not use buffer_heads. So setting your ->set_page_dirty a_op to point at __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() is a reasonable thing to do - it'll provide a slight speedup." This speedup is one less spinlock held and one less conditional branch, which isn't bad.

* 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!
