parisc and frv define sem_getcount() in semaphore.h, which returns the
current semaphore value. This is cleaner than doing
atomic_read(), currently done in

on all architectures if sem_getcount() is added.

Hello All,
For about 3.5 days now I've been trying to swap eth0 and eth1 devices
through use of the netdev kernel boot switch.
The scenario:
We have a system with onboard NICS and a PCI Intel e1000 Fiber NIC
installed. This particular system by default forces the NIC inside the
PCI slot to

Well designed drivers don't have SMP

Hi,
I am getting parse errors when I try to build aic7xxx( Adaptec SCSI
controller) driver for RHEL4.
I am using my own build enviroment (I mean Makefiles, scripts) to build this.

speed-up before the slow-down. This is where I changed lower_zone_protection from 1024 to 0. So it
seems its speeding up until the memory is full. Then it drastically slows-down until I set it to
