* [PATCH] fix missing includesTim Schmielau2005-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

* [PATCH] sysfs: (rest) if show/store is missing return -EIODmitry Torokhov2005-06-20
| | | | | | | | | sysfs: fix the rest of the kernel so if an attribute doesn't implement show or store method read/write will return -EIO instead of 0 or -EINVAL or -EPERM. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* [PATCH] kernel/param.c: don't use .max when .num is NULL in param_array_set()Bert Wesarg2005-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | there seems to be a bug, at least for me, in kernel/param.c for arrays with .num == NULL. If .num == NULL, the function param_array_set() uses &.max for the call to param_array(), wich alters the .max value to the number of arguments. The result is, you can't set more array arguments as the last time you set the parameter. example: # a module 'example' with # static int array[10] = { 0, }; # module_param_array(array, int, NULL, 0644); $ insmod example.ko array=1,2,3 $ cat /sys/module/example/parameters/array 1,2,3 $ echo "4,3,2,1" > /sys/module/example/parameters/array $ dmesg | tail -n 1 kernel: array: can take only 3 arguments Signed-off-by: Bert Wesarg <wesarg@informatik.uni-halle.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* 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!
