2006-01-18[PATCH] mm: migration page refcounting fixNick Piggin
Migration code currently does not take a reference to target page properly, so between unlocking the pte and trying to take a new reference to the page with isolate_lru_page, anything could happen to it. Fix this by holding the pte lock until we get a chance to elevate the refcount. Other small cleanups while we're here.

2006-01-18[PATCH] mm: dirty_exceeded speedupAndrew Morton
Ravikiran reports that this variable is bouncing all around nodes on NUMA machines, causing measurable performance problems. Fix that up by only writing to it when it actually changed. And put it in a new cacheline to prevent it sharing with other things (this happened).

2006-01-18[PATCH] Prevent trident driver from grabbing pcnet32 hardwareJon Mason
Some pcnet32 hardware erroneously has the Vendor ID for Trident. The pcnet32 driver looks for the PCI ethernet class before grabbing the hardware, but the current trident driver does not check against the PCI audio class. This allows the trident driver to claim the pcnet32 hardware. This patch prevents that. This revised version of the OSS Trident patch includes PCI_DEVICE Macro usage.

2006-01-18[IPV4]: Fix multiple bugs in IGMPv3David L Stevens
1) fix "mld_marksources()" to a) send nothing when all queried sources are excluded b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are not excluded c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report 2) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that short-circuit case, and also generates the group header with an empty list if needed. 3) fix mca_crcount decrement to be after add_grec(), which needs its original value 4) add/remove delete records and prevent current advertisements when an exclude-mode filter moves from "active" to "inactive" or vice versa based on new filter additions. Items 1-3 are just IPv4 versions of the IPv6 bugs found by Yan Zheng and fixed earlier. Item #4 is a related bug that affects exclude-mode change records only (but not queries) and also occurs in IPv6 (IPv6 version coming soon).

2006-01-17[PATCH] Fix sparse parse error in lppaca.hBryan O'Sullivan
sparse can't parse a struct definition in include/asm-powerpc/lppaca.h, even though gcc can accept it. The form looks like this: struct __attribute__((whatever)) foo { }; An equivalent that both gcc and sparse can handle is struct foo { } __attribute__((whatever)); This is the only definition of this type in the tree, and fixing it is easier than fixing sparse. Signed-off-by: Bryan O'Sullivan <bos@serpentine.com> [ Side note: fixing sparse wouldn't be hard, but the "attribute at the end" version is the canonical one, and the one that makes sense. So let's just fix the kernel instead. Luc Van Oostenryck already sent out a sparse patch to the sparse mailing list in case anybody cares. -- Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
