You'll find that there is a problem with 2.2.12, on down - with losing a
few bytes here and there.
The bug is in the tty subsystem - in that when you pass off chars to the
ldisc - from the driver, the ldisc doesn't actually write them. (I could
get into the details, but you probably don't care.)

Hi,
related to my question about having nanoseconds in xtime for Linux 2.5,
two (or three) people were interested, or at least managed to route
their message to me. As promised I have made an early release patch
against 2.4.0test11 available at
ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux/daemons/ntp/PPS/pps-2.

Hm, I have to see whether GX2 works with the S3V server.
Hallo,
tried to compile test12-pre8 and make modules exits with:

I believe the following patch should complete the
conversion of tq_struct->next to tq_struct->list, at least for x86
platforms. There were seventeen files in 2.4.0-test12pre8 for x86 that
needed to be updated.
Please integrate with caution. I had never looked at the

Linus,
the new submit_bh function provides functionality that is better
suited for brw_kiovec to use than generic_make_request.
This patch replaced generic_make_request with submit_bh in
brw_kiovec and removed some field initialisation which is no longer
required.
patch against 2.4.0
this patch is against final 2.2.18, hopefully for inclusion in 2.2.19pre.
the current '440LX/BX/GX and 840' agp driver supports the i815, but does
not detect it. this patch allows the driver to detect it correctly.

the majority of the problems i am seeing with the new task queue is that,
on list init, *next is still being used. all of that was replaced by a
single list member in the new implementation.
on init, *next is typically set to NULL. for the new task queue, there is
a macro to initialize the list:

Hi, Linus:
The attached patch fixes the following problems with ymfpci in 2.4 tree:
1. Enumeration was wrong, this bit people with several soundcards
(Abhijit Menon-Sen).
2. Must use semaphore to guard open/close.
3. Old ymfpci locks up if compiled with CONFIG_SMP due to
recursive calls to

E.g. situation, only one file struct left for allocation. One CPU goes
into get_empty_filp and before kmem

Both MODULE_PARM and __init are removed by precompiler when not compiler
as module, so no need for ifdefs.

My system is test12-pre7 also; but the bios is only 1.22 - but I am
using the 'RU' bp6 bios, which I thought to be the latest. Any pointers
on how to get a newer HPT-bios?

Hello. I just noticed that in 2.2.18pre27 you can only use the aty128fb
driver at 8 bit, because of some missing bits to drivers/video/Config.in.
w/o this you can't use console at > 8 bit nor X. I would consider this to
be a good thing to squash for 2.2.18 final because 2.2.18 is the 1st release

Have you tried it? I did. It works fine.
What _is_ defined in asm/core_t2.h is enough for alpha/lib/io.c to

Actually, it is fair. There are really two res

It doesn't and it shouldn't. That's done in ->truncate(). Check ext2_truncate()
for example.

Hello!
I'm using the kernel automounter to mount several cdrom's and partitions
on my smp-box. When the mount expires they aren't automatically
unmounted.
Forcing a 'kill -SIGUSR1 `pidof automount`' works for some devices, but
others stay.

Hello,
I sent Linus a patch a few minutes ago regarding a tq_struct issue within
drivers/i2o/i2o_lan.c . Alan just sent out a MD5sum for test12-pre8 , so I would
double check the MD5sum against your version of test12-pre8 to see if your errors are
from 'old' test12-pre8 or 'new' test12-pre8
Hi,
vmtruncate () in test11 doesn't clear ends of partial pages. Patch is attached
below.
HOWEVER, it doesn't fix everything: partial_clear () contains
if (!pte_present(pte))
return;
so swapped-out pages don't get truncated (so the patch seems to break things:

Hi folks
What should I do, when I run cdda2wav | gogo (riping CD from a ATAPI
CD thru mp3 encoder) and get a continuous dropping of characters, on a 16550-
enhanced serial port, without handshake, with full-duplex load of 115200 bps?
About 1 of 320 bytes is miscommunicated.
The kernel is 2.2.12.
