2005-10-30[PATCH] cpusets: bitmap and mask remap operatorsPaul Jackson
In the forthcoming task migration support, a key calculation will be mapping cpu and node numbers from the old set to the new set while preserving cpuset-relative offset. For example, if a task and its pages on nodes 8-11 are being migrated to nodes 24-27, then pages on node 9 (the 2nd node in the old set) should be moved to node 25 (the 2nd node in the new set.) As with other bitmap operations, the proper way to code this is to provide the underlying calculation in lib/bitmap.c, and then to provide the usual cpumask and nodemask wrappers. This patch provides that. These operations are termed 'remap' operations. Both remapping a single bit and a set of bits is supported.

2005-10-16[PATCH]: highest_possible_processor_id() has to be a macroAl Viro
... otherwise, things like alpha and sparc64 break and break badly. They define cpu_possible_map to something else in smp.h *AFTER* having included cpumask.h. If that puppy is a macro, expansion will happen at the actual caller, when we'd already seen #define cpu_possible_map ... and we will get the right thing used. As an inline helper it will be tokenized before we get to that define and that's it; no matter what we define later, it won't affect anything. We get modules with dependency on cpu_possible_map instead of the right symbol (phys_cpu_present_map in case of sparc64), or outright link errors if they are built-in.

2005-10-13[NETFILTER]: Fix OOPSes on machines with discontiguous cpu numbering.David S. Miller
Original patch by Harald Welte, with feedback from Herbert Xu and testing by Sébastien Bernard. EBTABLES, ARP tables, and IP/IP6 tables all assume that cpus are numbered linearly. That is not necessarily true. This patch fixes that up by calculating the largest possible cpu number, and allocating enough per-cpu structure space given that. Signed-off-by: David S.

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!
