Ok,
there it is. Only small stuff lately - as promised. Shortlog from -rc5
appended, nothing exciting there, mostly some fixes from various code
checkers (like fixed init sections, and some coverity tool finds).
So it's now _officially_ all bug-free.

Hi,
I am having a problem with memory leaking on a patched kernel. In order
to pinpoint the leak, I would like to try to trace the allocation points
for the memory.
I have found some vague references to patches that allow the user to
dump the caller address for slab allocations, but I cannot f

Hello,

It uses the 2.6.11-rc5-mm1 kernel, there are three hd´s
in it (all reiser4), hda is the system and boot disk, hdc and hdd are
in a raid 1 (via the kernel´s multiple device driver).
Without the raid, the system works as expected, but when

pm_send is deprecated and has no user except for the deprecated
pm_send_all in the same file.
Let's make pm_send static before someone might use it again.

I've noticed no problems with today's new 2.6.11 in the i2c realm on
gcc3.x, but the last couple of weeks of gcc 4.x cvs give this:

Thanks for the summary, Andrew.
Guillaume (or anyone else tempted to do this) - it's a good idea, when
posting 100 lines of data, to summarize with a line or two of words, as
Andrew did here. It is far more efficient

Hi Linus,
I'd like to improve mmap() support on !MMU still further by overloading struct
backing_dev_info::memory_backed to hold flags describing what the backing
device is capable of with respect to direct memory access.
(*) If bdi->memory_backed is 0, then the backing device is not accessible
In addition to worrying about performance and scaling, with accounting
enabled or disabled, one should also try to minimize code clutter in key
kernel files, such as fork.c
For example, one might, instead of adding 40 lines os fork_connector()
code to kernel/fork.c, instead add something like just

I'm ccing Linux kernel because this bug is also present in v2.6.
Andrew, Viro: tar --verify (which uses lseek) on SCSI tapes fails with:
tar: /dev/nst0: Warning: Cannot seek: Illegal seek
The problem was introduced by Viro's f_pos fixes which added "no_llseek"
as the llseek method in st.c.

I wonder if switch ports are configured as 100FDX auto=off or
100HDX auto=off.
from the report I saw it seems that switch ports are 100HDX auto=off
instead of 100FDX auto=off.

Didn't you say this this setup worked with 2.6.10? That's why I didn't suggest
staring at /etc/inittab.

Hello Marcelo,
As per our offline conversation, I have verified the update that went into
2.4.30-pre2.
I confirm that all changes are correct. I have only one doubt: The driver
was using
sleep_on_timeout for lack of msleep. Should it start using msleep now?
Vasily & Andrey, thank you for your ef
