2006-10-20[PATCH] uml: cleanup run_helper() API to fix a leakPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Freeing the stack is left uselessly to the caller of run_helper in some cases - this is taken from run_helper_thread, but here it is useless, so no caller needs it and the only place where this happens has a potential leak - in case of error neither run_helper() nor xterm_open() call free_stack(). At this point passing a pointer is not needed - the stack pointer should be passed directly, but this change is not done here.

2006-10-20[PATCH] uml: use DEFCONFIG_LIST to avoid reading host's configPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
This should make sure that, for UML, host's configuration files are not considered, which avoids various pains to the user. Our dependency are such that the obtained Kconfig will be valid and will lead to successful compilation - however they cannot prevent an user from disabling any boot device, and if an option is not set in the read .config (say /boot/config-XXX), with make menuconfig ARCH=um, it is not set. This always disables UBD and all console I/O channels, which leads to non-working UML kernels, so this bothers users - especially now, since it will happen on almost every machine (/boot/config-`uname -r` exists almost on every machine). It can be workarounded with make defconfig ARCH=um, but it is non-obvious and can be avoided, so please _do_ merge this patch. Given the existence of options, it could be interesting to implement (additionally) "option required" - with it, Kconfig will refuse reading a .config file (from wherever it comes) if the given option is not set. With this, one could mark with it the option characteristic of the given architecture (it was an old proposal of Roman Zippel, when I pointed out our problem): config UML option required default y However this should be further discussed: *) for x86, it must support constructs like: ==arch/i386/Kconfig== config 64BIT option required default n where Kconfig must require that CONFIG_64BIT is disabled or not present in the read .config. *) do we want to do such checks only for the starting defconfig or also for .config? Which leads to: *) I may want to port a x86_64 .config to x86 and viceversa, or even among more different archs. Should that be allowed, and in which measure (the user may force skipping the check for a .config or it is only given a warning by default)?

2006-10-20[PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functionsAndrew Morton
Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

2006-10-20[PATCH] direct-io: sync and invalidate file region when falling back to ↵Jeff Moyer
buffered write When direct-io falls back to buffered write, it will just leave the dirty data floating about in pagecache, pending regular writeback. But normal direct-io semantics are that IO is synchronous, and that it leaves no pagecache behind. So change the fallback-to-buffered-write code to sync the file region and to then strip away the pagecache, just as a regular direct-io write would do.
