anywhere.
1. Alan Cox's IDE driver that was included in his ac patchset, which
seems to have died at 2.6.11ac7.

Where can I found an up to date documentation about the VFS interface?
There is an ok chapter on filesystems in the O'Reilly Linux Kernel book,
and the Linux Device Drivers book (also from O'Reilly) is essential
reading.
Pay careful attention to fs/libfs.c and the nice small fs fs/ramfs which
I believe ( but I am not sure ), there is a recent article (or book)
on this subject.

ps doesn't use kmem, and besides, in 2.6 we export that directly in

Hi,
this fixes the 'doubled ioapic level interrupt rate' issue I've been

It also switches off quirk_via_irq() for the VT8237 southbridge.
As both changes are uncritical fixes, I'll post a real patch to -mm

Right now it seems like the only interface

If you wanted to recompile your kernel to debug you could as well

This patch adds support for UTF-8 signatures (aka BOM, byte order
mark) to binfmt_script. Files that start with EF BF FF # ! are now
recognized as scripts (in addition to files starting with # !).
With such support, creating scripts that reliably carry non-ASCII
characters is simplified. Editors

The test case is faulty. write will trigger the event again infinitely.
fds 0 and 1 are the same in many cases. Try this:
$ ./epolltest > foo
Now you will only get 1 trigger for each
