2007-10-09V4L/DVB (5988): Fix OOP on videobuf-dvb when hibernatingSimon Arlott
Since videobuf_waiton is called with intr=1, it can return -EINTR and therefore err may be non-zero. This happens when the system goes into the standby state. Without the BUG() occurring, there's no problem with standby mode while DVB is being used. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2007-07-17Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2006-12-07[PATCH] Add include/linux/freezer.h and move definitions from sched.hNigel Cunningham
Move process freezing functions from include/linux/sched.h to freezer.h, so that modifications to the freezer or the kernel configuration don't require recompiling just about everything.

2006-06-25V4L/DVB (3762): Add sysfs device links to dvb devicesAndrew de Quincey
Currently in /sys/class/dvb/dvbX.demuxY/ we have: dev uevent With the patch, we have (for a PCI DVB device): dev device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:03:0d.0 uevent So userspace tools can (finally) work out which physical device a DVB adapter refers to. Previously you had to kinda look through dmesg and hope that it hadn't been dumped out of the buffer. This makes debugging a lot easier if the system has been up for a long time! This is done by adding an extra 'struct device *' parameter to dvb_register_adapter(). It will work with any kind of standard linux 'device'. Additionally, if someone has an embedded system which does things differently, they can simply supply 'NULL' and the behaviour will be as before - the link will simply not appear.

2005-09-09[PATCH] v4l: common part Updates and tuner additionsMauro Carvalho Chehab
- Remove $Id CVS logs for V4L files - Included newer cards. - Added a new NEC protocol for ir based on pulse distance. - Enable ATSC support for DViCO FusionHDTV5 Gold. - Added tuner LG NTSC (TALN mini series). - Fixed tea5767 autodetection. - Resolve more tuner types. - Commented debug function removed from mainstream. - Remove comments from mainstream. Still on development tree. - linux/version dependencies removed. - BTSC Lang1 now is set to auto_stereo mode. - New tuner standby API. - i2c-core.c uses hexadecimal for the i2c address, so it should stay consistent.

2005-06-25[PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezingChristoph Lameter
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h: frozen(process) Check for frozen process freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator) thaw_process(process) Restart process frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now 2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all kernel sources except sched.h 3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver 4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN). This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe! Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

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!
