test7: - pre1: - fix PCI resource bug that crept in in test6 due to the new requirements to handle multiple bus regions transparently - ll_rw_block documentation - sound driver module counting bugfix and cleanup (move to named initializers) - directory rename bug fix for busy directories (oops) - allow "init_new_context()" to fail - it can do so on some architectures when out of memory. - networking updates - TCP retransmission and ordering logic - fix strsep(). Not that anybody cared. - pre2: - fix modversions.h generation ("make -j dep" works now) - finish 64-bit VFS: getdents64 and fcntl64 (getdents64 also adds the "file type" to the readdir data - VFS layer change. fcntl64 allows 64-bit file locking) - Intel i810 watchdog driver and NS DP83810 network driver - dup2() cannot screw up the file table with threads any more. - pre3: - nfs_commit_rpcsetup() signed comparison bugfix and cleanup - sparc updates and TLB invalidation fix - networking updates (less verbose on the new reordering messages) - network driver Makefile cleanup - Fix segment copy on fork. - tsk->files race fixes: close-on-exec etc. - sound #define cleanups - fs/proc/array.c task_lock cleanup - pre4: - "USE_STANDARD_AS_RULE" - generic Rules.make as rule - arm update (arch/arm, asm-arm, drivers/acorn, Documentation/arm etc) - eicon ISDN driver update (big). - serial.c warnings removal. - compilation fixes under different configurations.. - bounds checking for hpfs code page index. - sparc64 bugfix for atomic_dec_and_lock. Oops. And use flock64. - FAT missed the d_type thing from readdir. - fix tsk->files race fixes from -pre3 ("struct files_struct", not "struct file" and make sure to register the socket fs before we use a pointer to it) - ns558.c: don't leave the driver registered after a failed module load. Either return success, or unregister the PCI driver. And don't leak IO port allocations. - USB OHCI controller fixes for oopses due to races.. - usb updates - 3c59x driver update - VIA KX-133/KT-133 chipset detection and AGP bridge support - raid/raw-io cleanup: use generic_make_request instead of ll_rw_block. - Emu10k1 sound driver update - pre5 - i2c-old compile fix. - sparc updates (pte_pagenr cleanups) - make ipv6 loadable as a module together with CONFIG_INET_ECN - get rid of bdf_prm.b_un.age_super - it just confused the buffer aging - smbfs knows about nls and ascii mount options - small joystick driver updates - make sure to mark inode dirty after having changed the size! - hgafb documentation update - pre6 - Pentium/MMX has a good IO-APIC - APIC detection (aka "try to boot the SMP kernel even on buggy UP boards that claim SMP.") - alpha time.c epoch calculations. Again. - report where the memory region information came from. - sparc updates - file locking: fix deadlock detection and EOVERFLOW - network bugfixes - md readahead was getting confused about bytes vs pages - DRM and AGP fixes - xircom_tulip.c: don't corrupt the timer list on suspend - PCI /proc interface buffer overrun fix - ISDN updates - DAC960 update - fork: get CLONE_PTRACE right (SIGSTOP the child) - pre7 - block_all_signals()/unblock_all_signals() interface to allow drivers to react nicely to signals that happen to a process that owns driver data. Read: direct rendering lock handling. - ThunderLAN update (timer fixes, full-duplex, activity-led) - Fix NFS oops on removing negative dentry. Honour rsize for directory read. - usb updates - scheduler wakeup race fix. - move radio/tv cards to drivers/media, cleaning up drivers/char - move "input" layer to drivers/input, cleaning up drivers/usb - Cirrus SoundFusion CS4280/461x sound driver. - proper camera locking in usb/dc2xx.c - USB printer driver update (Printer Protocol 3 and timeout handling) - final - usbkbd.c syntax error fix. USB config messages change. pegasus update - digiboard driver update. Yes, people, it's still being used. - make elvtune not break any more now that "maxbomb" isn't used. - sparc updates - tunneling driver, aka "ethertap done right". - pcmcia/cs.c: only call the reset handle if valid. - net/sunrpc/sched.c: fix two rpc_wait_queue hangups - AMD Duron cpuid errata forward port - get_close_on_exec() only needs the read lock, not write lock - get rid of unnecessary kernel lock in fork() - MCA planar POS-register /proc support - drivers/media configuration fixup (menuconfig is happy again)
