2007-04-28sonypi: try to detect if sony-laptop has already taken one of the known ioportsmalattia@linux.it
Get the IO resources list in sony-laptop in the same order as listed in sonypi and make sonypi check if one of those is already busy. The sonypi check can be disabled by a module parameter in case the user thinks we are plainly wrong (check_ioport=0).

2007-04-26[AGPGART] prevent probe collision of sis-agp and amd64_agpOliver Neukum
For some vendor/id pairs the kernel will autoload both the sis-agp and the amd64_agp modules as the sis-agp module will load for all sis devices. This collision causes the bug reported in: http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=248665 As currently sis_probe does its own matching, requesting the whole range gains nothing. The clean fix seems to me to leave the matching to the core and advertise only the devices actually supported. This patch does so.

Add a back-off mechanism to hvc_console's polling logic. This change drops the timers/second ratio from ~90 to ~1/2 while the console is idle. This change is most noticeable when watching /proc/timer_stats output. This only affects when the hvc_console is running in poll mode, i.e. power4 and cell systems.

Commit d720bc4b8fc5d6d179ef094908d4fbb5e436ffad partially removed a private implementation of baud speed decoding. However it doesn't seem to be complete: after the speed is decoded, it is still being used as an index to a local speed table (array overrun, no doubt).

2007-03-18[PATCH] tty: Fix two reported pid leaksEric W. Biederman
These leaks were reported by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marians@gmail.com> and I have been able to very by inspection they are possible. When converting tty_io.c to store pids as struct pid pointers instead of pid_t values it appears I overlooked two places where we stop using the pid value. The very obvious one is in do_tty_hangup, and the one the less obvious one in __proc_set_tty. When looking into the code __proc_set_tty only has pids that need to be put because of failures of other parts of the code to properly perform hangup processing. Fixing the leak here in __proc_set_tty is easy and obviously correct so I am doing that first. Fixing the places that should be performing hangup processing is much less obviously correct. So those I'm aiming those patches at -mm. for now, so the can age a while before they are merged. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
