Hi Andrew,
I've had this patch reviewed by Jens, and
incorporated his recommended fixes. This patch applies
to the latest bk tree.
The patch adds new interfaces to bio.c that support
the creation of local bio and bvec pools. This is

new bio an

This patch adds so-called "usbmon", or USB monitoring framework, similar
to what tcpdump provides for Ethernet. This is an initial version, but
it should be safe and useful. It adds an overhead of an if () statement

Since it looks like ide is being worked on, can you convert ide to use
the PCI ROM access calls in drivers/pci/rom.c instead of directly
manipulating PCI config space? The new ROM calls work on all
architectures.
These are the places that need to be fix:

Is there any work in progress to get some unified error reporting (and
possibly recovery) API for PCI/X/e ?
On pSeries, we have this "EEH" mecanism that allows us, even with
old-style PCI, to get error notification, but also to recover by doing
slot reset and that sort of stuff.

Hi,
I had a lot of problems with the transport stream input on the
SAA7134. Even the slighest bit of other system activity caused data
corruption. This patch corrects the switching of the two DMA
buffers.
Without the patch, the driver updates the buffer that is just about to
be used by the chip.
