2005-05-01[PATCH] nbd: Don't create all MAX_NBD devices by default all the timeLars Marowsky-Bree
This patches adds the "nbds_max" parameter to the nbd kernel module, which limits the number of nbds allocated. Previously, always all 128 entries were allocated unconditionally, which used to waste resources and needlessly flood the hotplug system with events. (Defaults to 16 now.)

2005-05-01[PATCH] noop-iosched: kill O(N) merge scanJens Axboe
Profiling hit rates on merging shows that the last merge hint works extremely well for most work loads. So lets kill the linear merge scan in noop-iosched, so it provides O(1) run time for any operation. Testing credits go to Ken Chen from Intel.

2005-05-01[PATCH] LifeView FlyTV Platinum FM: GPIO usagePeter Missel
This is take two of a patch that should have appeared two days ago, before yesterday's "remote control" patch for the same card. This patch sets unconnected GPIO to Output to keep them from floating (just good driver writing practice, being nice to the chip), and uses GPIO16 to switch TV vs. FM - this pin switches inputs onto the tuner, as well as the audio output from the tuner into the 7135 SIF input. Consequently, FM radio support is being un-commented because it's now working (sort of, see below). These two patches get the card almost fully operational; there appears to be a bug in tda8290.c remaining that puts an offset onto the tuned frequency in FM radio mode. We're investigating.

2005-05-01[PATCH] s390: don't pad cdl blocks for write requestsHorst Hummel
The first blocks on a cdl formatted dasd device are smaller than the blocksize of the device. Read requests are padded with a 'e5' pattern. Write requests should not pad the (user) buffer with 'e5' because a write request is not allowed to modify the buffer.

2005-05-01[PATCH] s390: enable write barriers in the dasd driverStefan Weinhuber
The DASD device driver never reorders the I/O requests and relies on the hardware to write all data to nonvolatile storage before signaling a successful write. Hence, the only thing we have to do to support write barriers is to set the queue ordered flag.

2005-05-01[PATCH] ppc32: Fix IDE related crash on wakeupBenjamin Herrenschmidt
I noticed an occasional crash on wakeup from sleep on my powerbook (strangly never happened before, probably timing related) that appears to be due to a dangling interrupt while the chip is put to sleep and beeing reset on wakeup. This patch fixes is by disabling the irq in the ide pmac driver while asleep and only re-enable it after the chip has been fully reset. This is safe to do so as the interrupt of these apple IDE cells is never shared.

2005-04-29[PATCH] Add suspend method to cpufreq coreBenjamin Herrenschmidt
In order to properly fix some issues with cpufreq vs. sleep on PowerBooks, I had to add a suspend callback to the pmac_cpufreq driver. I must force a switch to full speed before sleep and I switch back to previous speed on resume. I also added a driver flag to disable the warnings in suspend/resume since it is expected in this case to have different speed (and I want it to fixup the jiffies properly).

2005-04-28[PATCH] ARM: Fix AMBA CLCD fb driver for 32bppRussell King
We were supporting 24bpp. However, the pixel organisation in memory was 0RGB, so it was 24bpp in 32bit words.

2005-04-25[TG3]: Fix tg3_restart_ints()Michael Chan
tg3_restart_ints() is called to re-enable interrupts after tg3_poll() has finished all the work. It calls tg3_cond_int() to force an interrupt if the status block updated bit is set. The updated bit will be set if there is a new status block update sometime during tg3_poll() and it can be very often. The worst part is that even if all the work has been processed, the updated bit remains set and an interrupt will be forced unnecessarily. The fix is to call tg3_has_work() instead to determine if new work is posted before forcing an interrupt. The way to force an interrupt is also changed to use "coalesce_now" instead of "SETINT". The former is generally a safer way to force the interrupt. Also deleted the first parameter to tg3_has_work() which is unused.

2005-04-25[TG3]: Fix bug in tg3_rx()Michael Chan
This patch fixes a bug that causes tg3_has_work() to always return 1. rx work is determined by comparing tp->rx_rcb_ptr with the current hw producer index. The hw producer index is modulo the ring size, but tp- >rx_rcb_ptr is a free running counter that goes up beyond the ring size. After the ring wraps around once, tg3_has_work() will always return 1. The fix is to always do modulo arithmetic on tp->rx_rcb_ptr. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
