2005-11-07[PATCH] kfree cleanup: archJesper Juhl
This is the arch/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch. Remove pointless checks for NULL prior to calling kfree() in arch/.

2005-11-07[PATCH] s390: remove pagex supportMartin Schwidefsky
Remove pagex pseudo page fault code. It does not work together with the system call speedup that makes the complete system call path enabled for interrupts. To make pagex and the syscall speedup code work together we would have to add code to the program check handler to do a critical section cleanup like the asynchronous interrupt code. This would make program checks slower. Not what we want. Newer versions of z/VM have the improved pfault pseudo page fault interface. This replaces the old pagex interface and does not have the problem. So its better to just rip out the pagex code.

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: init_mm without ptlockHugh Dickins
First step in pushing down the page_table_lock. init_mm.page_table_lock has been used throughout the architectures (usually for ioremap): not to serialize kernel address space allocation (that's usually vmlist_lock), but because pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel expect caller holds it. Reverse that: don't lock or unlock init_mm.page_table_lock in any of the architectures; instead rely on pud_alloc,pmd_alloc,pte_alloc_kernel to take and drop it when allocating a new one, to check lest a racing task already did. Similarly no page_table_lock in vmalloc's map_vm_area. Some temporary ugliness in __pud_alloc and __pmd_alloc: since they also handle user mms, which are converted only by a later patch, for now they have to lock differently according to whether or not it's init_mm. If sources get muddled, there's a danger that an arch source taking init_mm.page_table_lock will be mixed with common source also taking it (or neither take it). So break the rules and make another change, which should break the build for such a mismatch: remove the redundant mm arg from pte_alloc_kernel (ppc64 scrapped its distinct ioremap_mm in 2.6.13). Exceptions: arm26 used pte_alloc_kernel on user mm, now pte_alloc_map; ia64 used pte_alloc_map on init_mm, now pte_alloc_kernel; parisc had bad args to pmd_alloc and pte_alloc_kernel in unused USE_HPPA_IOREMAP code; ppc64 map_io_page forgot to unlock on failure; ppc mmu_mapin_ram and ppc64 im_free took page_table_lock for no good reason.

2005-09-05[PATCH] s390: pfault interrupt raceMartin Schwidefsky
There is a race in pfault_interrupt. That function gets called two times for each pfault notification. Once with a subcode of 0 to indicate that a real page is not available and once with a subcode of 0x80 to indicate that the page is present again. Since the two external interrupts can be delivered on two different cpus the order in which the two calls are made is unpredictable. It is possible that the subcode 0x80 interrupt is completed before the subcode 0x00 interrupt has done the wake_up() call. To avoid calling wake_up() on an already removed task structure proper task structure reference counting is needed. Increase the reference counter in the subcode 0x00 interrupt before setting pfault_wait to zero and return the reference after the wake_up call.

2005-06-04[PATCH] s390: in_interrupt vs. in_atomicMartin Schwidefsky
The condition for no context in do_exception checks for hard and soft interrupts by using in_interrupt() but not for preemption. This is bad for the users of __copy_from/to_user_inatomic because the fault handler might call schedule although the preemption count is != 0. Use in_atomic() instead in_interrupt().

2005-05-01[PATCH] s390: cmm guest sender idMartin Schwidefsky
An arbitrary guest must not be allowed to trigger cmm actions. Only one specific guest namely the one that serves as the resource monitor may send cmm messages. Add a parameter that allows to specify the guest that may send messages. z/VMs resource manager has the name 'VMRMSVM' which is the default.

2005-05-01[PATCH] s390: fix memory holes and cleanup setup_archHeiko Carstens
The memory setup didn't take care of memory holes and this makes the memory management think there would be more memory available than there is in reality. That causes the OOM killer to kill processes even if there is enough memory left that can be written to the swap space. The patch fixes this by using free_area_init_node with an array of memory holes instead of free_area_init. Further the patch cleans up the code in setup.c by splitting setup_arch into smaller pieces.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
