loop: preallocate eight loop devices

2007-06-09T00:23:32+00:00

The kernel on-demand loop device instantiation breaks several user space
tools as the tools are not ready to cope with the "on-demand feature".  Fix
it by instantiate default 8 loop devices and also reinstate max_loop module
parameter.

cciss: Fix pci_driver.shutdown while device is still active

2007-05-19T04:03:49+00:00

Fix an Oops in the cciss driver caused by system shutdown while a filesystem
on a cciss device is still active.  The cciss_remove_one function only
properly removes the device if the device has been cleanly released by its
users, which is not the case when the pci_driver.shutdown method is called.

This patch adds a new cciss_shutdown function to better match the pattern
used by various SCSI drivers: deactivate device interrupts and flush caches.
It also alters the cciss_remove_one function to match and readds the
__devexit annotation that was removed when cciss_remove_one was serving as
the pci_driver.shutdown method.

fix deadlock in loop.c

2007-05-13T16:44:05+00:00

... doh

Jeremy Fitzhardinge noted that the recent loop.c cleanups worked, but
cause lockdep to complain.

Ouch.  OK, the deadlock is real and yes, I'm an idiot.  Speaking of which,
we probably want to s/lock/pin/ in drivers/base/map.c to avoid such
brainos again.  And yes, this stuff needs clear documentation.  Will try
to put one together once I get some sleep...

[S390] Kconfig: use common Kconfig files for s390.

2007-05-10T13:46:08+00:00

Disband drivers/s390/Kconfig, use the common Kconfig files. The s390
specific config options from drivers/s390/Kconfig are moved to the
respective common Kconfig files.

fs: convert core functions to zero_user_page

2007-05-09T19:30:55+00:00

It's very common for file systems to need to zero part or all of a page,
the simplist way is just to use kmap_atomic() and memset().  There's
actually a library function in include/linux/highmem.h that does exactly
that, but it's confusingly named memclear_highpage_flush(), which is
descriptive of *how* it does the work rather than what the *purpose* is.
So this patchset renames the function to zero_user_page(), and calls it
from the various places that currently open code it.

This first patch introduces the new function call, and converts all the
core kernel callsites, both the open-coded ones and the old
memclear_highpage_flush() ones.  Following this patch is a series of
conversions for each file system individually, per AKPM, and finally a
patch deprecating the old call.  The diffstat below shows the entire
patchset.
