2006-12-01usb: writing_usb_driver free urb cleanupMariusz Kozlowski
Allright. As Greg KH suggested I split this big patch into smaller ones to make the changes easier to review. Having no better idea how to split that I split it on a 'patch per file' basis. All those patches clean redundant 'if' before usb_unlink/free/kill_urb(): if (urb) usb_free_urb(urb); /* unlink / free / kill */ I decided not to touch bigger 'if's like if (urb) { usb_kill_urb(urb); usb_free_urb(urb); urb = NULL; } as that would be probably too intrusive. One of patches also fixes drivers/usb/misc/auerswald.c memleak I found when digging the code. All those patches are against 2.6.19-rc4.

2006-11-03[PATCH] docbook: merge journal-api into filesystems.tmplRandy Dunlap
Move journal-api into filesystems.tmpl as a Chapter. Applies on top of the previous docbook: make a filesystems book patch. Remove trailing whitespace from journal-api chapter. Align some of the tags. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-10-30[PATCH] docbook: make a filesystems bookRandy Dunlap
Make a filesystems DocBook book/file by moving all filesystems info from kernel-api.tmpl. Will also merge journal-api.tmpl into it soon (with permission from Roger Gammans). Localizes filesystem info and reduces size of the huge (produced) kernel-api output files.

Overriding the whole EH code is a per-transport, not per-host thing. Move ->eh_strategy_handler to the transport class, same as ->eh_timed_out. Downside is that scsi_host_alloc can't check for the total lack of EH anymore, but the transition period from old EH where we needed it is long gone already.

2006-03-29[PATCH] libata: Simplex and other mode filtering logicAlan Cox
Add a field to the host_set called 'flags' (was host_set_flags changed to suit Jeff) Add a simplex_claimed field so we can remember who owns the DMA channel Add a ->mode_filter() hook to allow drivers to filter modes Add docs for mode_filter and set_mode Filter according to simplex state Filter cable in core This provides the needed framework to support all the mode rules found in the PATA world. The simplex filter deals with 'to spec' simplex DMA systems found in older chips. The cable filter avoids duplicating the same rules in each chip driver with PATA. Finally the mode filter is neccessary because drive/chip combinations have errata that forbid certain modes with some drives or types of ATA object. Drive speed setup remains per channel for now and the filters now use the framework Tejun put into place which cleans them up a lot from the older libata-pata patches.

2006-03-06kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behaviorPaul Smith
The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make. Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time, even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make. For more details on the incorrect behavior, see: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html Changes in this patch: - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY. - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly. - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether targets are up-to-date or not.
