Hi Greg, PCI folk,
In our hardware situation, the BIOS is unable to store or generate it's PIRQ
table in the Fh-10h standard range. This patch adds a pci kernel
parameter, pirqaddr to allow the bootloader (or BIOS based loader) to inform
the kernel where the PIRQ table got stored. A

We have uncovered a very difficult to trip AB-BA deadlock between the
uidhash_lock and tasklist_lock.
reparent_to_init() does write_lock_irq(_lock) then calls
switch_uid() which calls free_uid() which grabs the uidhash_lock.
Independent of that, we have seen a different cpu call free_uid as a

Hi,
Using ELF format to construct dump information (registers, physical adress

But it is not necessary to indend to use a particular analysis tool.

Hi Gene,
I've dropped the id member of struct i2c_client, as it were
useless. Third-party driver authors now need to do the same.
Aha! As in just 'dd' any line containing the .id in vim?
Exactly. Don't kill all lines with .id though, only the i2c_client id
was dropped, and there are

windows can get 200MB of memory on a running system relaibly?

The ftape utils have a tool called swapout which tries to 'free'
large chunks of memory which then can be allocated by the ftape
module loaded subsequently.

It would be nice though if the VM tuned itself dynamically to a lot

Hi Ingo,
I notice a problem with the bit_spin_locks that would probably explain the
kjournald latency problems. I'm working on a custom kernel based on your's
and I needed to temporarily remove the scheduler_tick from
update_process_times to implement some special scheduling needs. This

Hi,
I can cat e.g. /proc/acpi/toshiba/lcd, but I cannot echo into it, there is
no error message or log entry whatsoever (not a permissions issue, other ppl
are experiencing the same btw). It's a toshiba satellite 5200-701 (european
model, AFAIK) with a more-or-less bleeding edge gentoo install.
