| David Witbrodt | HPET regression in 2.6.26 versus 2.6.25
Hello,
[Please CC me if you reply, for I am not subscribed to LKML.]
This is my first time posting to LKML.
I am a Debian user. The sources for 2.6.26 recently became available
in the Debian unstable repositories. Trying them out by building
custom kernels (think 'make oldconfig'), I found that one machine
worked while another froze early in boot. No oops, no error msg of
any kind, just a hard freeze without even Magic SysRq working!
I suspected a dumb config error on my part, but found ...

| Duane Griffin | [PATCH] jbd: abort instead of waiting for nonexistent transa...
The __log_wait_for_space function sits in a loop checkpointing transactions
until there is sufficient space free in the journal. However, if there are
no transactions to be processed (e.g. because the free space calculation is
wrong due to a corrupted filesystem) it will never progress.
Check for space being required when no transactions are outstanding and
abort the journal instead of endlessly looping.
This patch fixes the bug reported by Sami Liedes at:

This is for a Dell Inspiron E1705/9400. I'm using a non-OEM disk (a
Hitachi 320 GB drive).
Note that matching on "MP061" doesn't work -- it needs to be "MP061*"
due to the way dmidecode seems to return the data (with a bunch of
spaces after the tag). Hence I've attached the data rather than merely
I've only had this thing a month or so and already had over 70,000

| Joe Peterson | tty: ctrl-c not always echoed, especially under load
I am experiencing a rather intermittent and hard-to-reproduce issue in the tty
layer, and I am posting here to get ideas on how to debug it from those of you
who have delved into the tty internals. I suspect some kind of race is going on
or the echo is caught in the tty buffer when it gets flushed (and never makes it
to the tty). Heavy load (compiling, etc.) seems to make it more likely.
When a signal character (e.g. ctrl-c) is received, the tty ldisc and driver are
flushed, the character is echoe...

| Alan Cox | Re: tty: ctrl-c not always echoed, especially under load
On Mon, 04 Aug 2008 16:03:02 -0600
If the output buffer is full then echoed characters/^C etc will vanish the
way n_tty implements its buffering internally. It's always worked that
way.

| Aug 4, 7:11 pm 2008 |
| Joe Peterson | Re: tty: ctrl-c not always echoed, especially under load
But since the flush is done just prior, shouldn't the buffer be empty
just before the ^C is written? Or are you saying that the buffer could
refill in the meantime (between the flush and the ^C) if the chars are
comming in too fast?
What about the order of flush?... Currently, it is:
n_tty_flush_buffer(tty); (ldisc buf)
tty_driver_flush_buffer(tty); (driver buf)
Would it be better to reverse this order, flushing the driver buffer
first so characters do not then refill the ldisc buffer ...

From: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>
This patch changes the static MIN_PARTIAL to a dynamic per-cache ->min_partial
value that is calculated from object size. The bigger the object size, the more
pages we keep on the partial list.
I tested SLAB, SLUB, and SLUB with this patch on Jens Axboe's 'netio' example
script of the fio benchmarking tool. The script stresses the networking
subsystem which should also give a fairly good beating of kmalloc() et al.

commit 0056e65f9e28d83ee1a3fb4f7d0041e838f03c34 upstream
We zero-fill them like we are supposed to, and that's all fine. It's
only an error if the 'romfs_copyfrom()' routine isn't able to fill the
data that is supposed to be there.
Most of the patch is really just re-organizing the code a bit, and using
separate variables for the err...

| Greg KH | [patch 01/25] ftrace: remove unneeded documentation
2.6.26-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
There is no ftrace in the 2.6.26 kernel release, so remove the
documentation as it isn't needed.

I understand why Greg's pulling it. That does not mean I have to like it.

Why? There is no ftrace code in the 2.6.26 kernel, so why would we
worry about keeping such documentation up to date, let alone even
present at all?
Why should this matter?
thanks,

Greg,
Don't get me wrong. I agree with the reason to pull it. It is the right
thing to do. But still, I don't like it, not because I disagree with it,
but simply, I liked the fact that the document made it in before the code.
I just sold my 1994 Nissan Sentra because I seldom drove it. It was the
right thing to do. But I still don't like the fact that I don't have it
anymore.
I don't like it. This is a feeling. Nothing to do with being technical.
Hence, I will not argue it. I just wa...

| Eric Paris | [RFC 1/5] [TALPA] Hooking points and kernel interception
Core of the functionality is to insert hooking points at appropriate
places and pass events for vetting.
Vetting works via three chain of filters. First an interception is
passed to a evaluation chain whose purpose is to decide whether the
access should be allowed or denied. Depending on the outcome either
allow or deny filter chain is run next.
