ab95416035 [PATCH] swsusp: write speedup
Switch the swsusp writeout code from 4k-at-a-time to 4MB-at-a-time.

Crufty old PIII testbox:
	12.9 MB/s -> 20.9 MB/s

Sony Vaio:
	14.7 MB/s -> 26.5 MB/s

The implementation is crude.  A better one would use larger BIOs, but wouldn't
gain any performance.

The memcpys will be mostly pipelined with the IO and basically come for free.

The ENOMEM path has not been tested.  It should be.

182daa5567 [PATCH] mtrr: Add lock annotations for prepare_set and post_set
The functions prepare_set and post_set in kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c wrap
the spinlock set_atomicity_lock: prepare_set returns with the lock held,
and post_set releases the lock without acquiring it.  Add lock annotations
to these two functions so that sparse can check callers for lock pairing,
and so that sparse will not complain about these functions since they
intentionally use locks in this manner.

0f0f1b400c [PATCH] Voyager: tty locking
Voyager fiddles with current->signal.tty without locking.  It turns out
that the code in question has already cleared current->signal.tty correctly
because daemonize() does the right thing already.

The signal handling also appears to be incorrect as it does an unprotected
sigfillset that also appears unneccessary.  As I don't have a bowtie and am
therefore not a qualified voyager maintainer I leave that to James.

753b9f86e7 [PATCH] x86: enable VMSPLIT for highmem kernels
The current VMSPLIT Kconfig option is disabled whenever highmem is on.
This is a bit screwy because the people who need to change VMSPLIT the most
tend to be the ones with highmem and constrained lowmem.

So, remove the highmem dependency.  But, re-include the dependency for the
"full 1GB of lowmem" option.  You can't have the full 1GB of lowmem and
highmem because of the need for the vmalloc(), kmap(), etc...  areas.

I thought there would be at least a bit of tweaking to do to
get it to work, but everything seems OK.

5091e74684 [PATCH] Translate asm version of ELFNOTE macro into preprocessor macro
I've come across some problems with the assembly version of the ELFNOTE
macro currently in -mm. (in
x86-put-note-sections-into-a-pt_note-segment-in-vmlinux.patch)

The first is that older gas does not support :varargs in .macro
definitions (in my testing 2.17 does while 2.15 does not, I don't know
when it became supported). The Changes file says binutils >= 2.12 so I
think we need to avoid using it. There are no other uses in mainline or
-mm. Old gas appears to just ignore it so you get "too many arguments"
type errors.

Secondly it seems that passing strings as arguments to assembler macros
is broken without varargs. It looks like they get unquoted or each
character is treated as a separate argument or something and this causes
all manner of grief. I think this is because of the use of -traditional
when compiling assembly files.

Therefore I have translated the assembler macro into a pre-processor
macro.

I added the desctype as a separate argument instead of including it with
the descdata as the previous version did since -traditional means the
ELFNOTE definition after the #else needs to have the same number of
arguments (I think so anyway, the -traditional CPP semantics are pretty
fscking strange!).

With this patch I am able to define elfnotes in assembly like this with
both old and new assemblers.

	ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_GUEST_OS,       .asciz, "linux")
	ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_GUEST_VERSION,  .asciz, "2.6")
	ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_XEN_VERSION,    .asciz, "xen-3.0")
	ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_VIRT_BASE,      .long,  __PAGE_OFFSET)

Which seems reasonable enough.

9c9b8b3882 [PATCH] x86: put .note.* sections into a PT_NOTE segment in vmlinux
This patch will pack any .note.* section into a PT_NOTE segment in the output
file.

To do this, we tell ld that we need a PT_NOTE segment.  This requires us to
start explicitly mapping sections to segments, so we also need to explicitly
create PT_LOAD segments for text and data, and map the sections to them
appropriately.  Fortunately, each section will default to its previous
section's segment, so it doesn't take many changes to vmlinux.lds.S.

This only changes i386 for now, but I presume the corresponding changes for
other architectures will be as simple.

This change also adds <linux/elfnote.h>, which defines C and Assembler macros
for actually creating ELF notes.

bc157b7596 [PATCH] AVR32 MTD: Static Memory Controller driver
This patchset adds the necessary drivers and infrastructure to access the
external flash on the ATSTK1000 board through the MTD subsystem.  With this
stuff in place, it will be possible to use a jffs2 filesystem stored in the
external flash as a root filesystem.  It might also be possible to update the
boot loader if you drop the write protection of partition 0.

As suggested by David Woodhouse, I reworked the patches to use the physmap
driver instead of introducing a separate mapping driver for the ATSTK1000.
I've also cleaned up the hsmc header by removing useless comments and
converting spaces to tabs (my headerfile generator needs some work.)

Unfortunately, I couldn't unlock the flash in fixup_use_atmel_lock because the
erase regions hadn't been set up yet, so I had to do it from cfi_amdstd_setup
instead.

This patch:

This adds a simple API for configuring the static memory controller along with
an implementation for the Atmel HSMC.

5f97f7f940 [PATCH] avr32 architecture
This adds support for the Atmel AVR32 architecture as well as the AT32AP7000
CPU and the AT32STK1000 development board.

AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for
cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power
consumption and high code density.  The AVR32 architecture is not binary
compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR architectures.

The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf

The Atmel AT32AP7000 is the first CPU implementing the AVR32 architecture.  It
features a 7-stage pipeline, 16KB instruction and data caches and a full
Memory Management Unit.  It also comes with a large set of integrated
peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 ARM-based controllers from
Atmel.

Full data sheet is available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32003.pdf

while the CPU core implementation including caches and MMU is documented by
the AVR32 AP Technical Reference, available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf

Information about the AT32STK1000 development board can be found at

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918

including a BSP CD image with an earlier version of this patch, development
tools (binaries and source/patches) and a root filesystem image suitable for
booting from SD card.

Alternatively, there's a preliminary "getting started" guide available at
http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted which provides links
to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling
environment for avr32-linux.

This patch, as well as the other patches included with the BSP and the
toolchain patches, is actively supported by Atmel Corporation.

88d6e19900 [PATCH] FRV: improve FRV's use of generic IRQ handling
Improve FRV's use of generic IRQ handling:

 (*) Use generic_handle_irq() rather than __do_IRQ() as the latter is obsolete.

 (*) Don't implement enable() and disable() ops as these will fall back to
     using unmask() and mask().

 (*) Provide mask_ack() functions to avoid a call each to mask() and ack().

 (*) Make the cascade handlers always return IRQ_HANDLED.

 (*) Implement the mask() and unmask() functions in the same order as they're
     listed in the ops table.

b20c8122a3 [PATCH] selinux: fix tty locking
Take tty_mutex when accessing ->signal->tty in selinux code.  Noted by Alan
Cox.  Longer term, we are looking at refactoring the code to provide better
encapsulation of the tty layer, but this is a simple fix that addresses the
immediate bug.

This patch converts the remaining isec->sem into a mutex.  Very similar
locking is provided as before only in the faster smaller mutex rather than a
semaphore.  An out_unlock path is introduced rather than the conditional
unlocking found in the original code.

296fddf751 [PATCH] SELinux: eliminate inode_security_set_security
inode_security_set_sid is only called by security_inode_init_security, which
is called when a new file is being created and needs to have its incore
security state initialized and its security xattr set.  This helper used to be
called in other places in the past, but now only has the one.  So this patch
rolls inode_security_set_sid directly back into security_inode_init_security.
There also is no need to hold the isec->sem while doing this, as the inode is
not available to other threads at this point in time.

f3f8771420 [PATCH] selinux: add support for range transitions on object classes
Introduces support for policy version 21.  This version of the binary
kernel policy allows for defining range transitions on security classes
other than the process security class.  As always, backwards compatibility
for older formats is retained.  The security class is read in as specified
when using the new format, while the "process" security class is assumed
when using an older policy format.

89fa30242f [PATCH] NUMA: Add zone_to_nid function
There are many places where we need to determine the node of a zone.
Currently we use a difficult to read sequence of pointer dereferencing.
Put that into an inline function and use throughout VM.  Maybe we can find
a way to optimize the lookup in the future.
