Hi folks,
Second attempt now:

can you try to remove the hci_usb_close() in hci_usb_disconnect(),
This fixes a potential namespace collision and does an optimisation for
2.6.20 drivers/scsi/eata.c:
* sort() is renamed to eata_sort() to avoid conflict with kernel
proper sort(). It does _not_ conflict currently in 2.6.20 so
this is a pre-emptive change.

just noticed that parisc's ioctl.h file, rather than simply
including asm-generic/ioctl.h, has its own copy whose sole

Hi,
Quick question,
Since I am going to open my server today to do some pata tests (for
the weird detection problems people are giving me fantastic help with,
no sarcasm, I really mean it) I thought: why not add two 320GB SATA
disks on the SATA controller that the mainboard has.

How does it work when you can't actually get back to userspace to have
userspace do the coredump? You still have to handle the userspace
Hi,
I'm trying to modify the ordering of I/O requests in Linux kernel, and
came across the barrier flags REQ_HARDBARRIER and REQ_SOFTBARRIER.
One thing I noticed (which might be wrong) is that all the requests
have both these flags set. What is the significance of these flags? Is

If you've got a stand-alone executable, you don't need MAP_FIXED. The
ELF loader maps the program at a fixed address anyway (at least on
i386 and x86_64, I haven't checked others).
AFAIK, PolyML has recently made the
