disable sys_timerfd() for 2.6.23

2007-09-19T18:24:18+00:00

There is still some confusion and disagreement over what this interface should
actually do.  So it is best that we disable it in 2.6.23 until we get that
fully sorted out.

(sys_timerfd() was present in 2.6.22 but it was apparently broken, so here we
assume that nobody is using it yet).

Kconfig: remove top level menu "Code maturity level options"

2007-07-31T22:39:43+00:00

Remove the top level menu "Code maturity level options", and moves its
options into menu "General setup".

This makes Kconfig less cluttered and easier to setup.

ANON_INODES shouldn't be user visible

2007-07-31T22:39:42+00:00

There doesn't seem to be a good reason for ANON_INODES being
an user visible option.

sh: Add sh to the CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE dependencies.

2007-07-26T06:37:44+00:00

Presently we only use this with CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL, but it is
something that can be supported commonly.

Make SLUB the default allocator

2007-07-17T17:23:02+00:00

There are some reports that 2.6.22 has SLUB as the default. Not
true!

This will make SLUB the default for 2.6.23.

user namespace: add the framework

2007-07-16T16:05:47+00:00

Basically, it will allow a process to unshare its user_struct table,
resetting at the same time its own user_struct and all the associated
accounting.

A new root user (uid == 0) is added to the user namespace upon creation.
Such root users have full privileges and it seems that theses privileges
should be controlled through some means (process capabilities ?)

The unshare is not included in this patch.

Changes since [try #4]:
	- Updated get_user_ns and put_user_ns to accept NULL, and
	  get_user_ns to return the namespace.

Changes since [try #3]:
	- moved struct user_namespace to files user_namespace.{c,h}

Changes since [try #2]:
	- removed struct user_namespace* argument from find_user()

Changes since [try #1]:
	- removed struct user_namespace* argument from find_user()
	- added a root_user per user namespace

remove CONFIG_UTS_NS and CONFIG_IPC_NS

2007-07-16T16:05:47+00:00

CONFIG_UTS_NS and CONFIG_IPC_NS have very little value as they only
deactivate the unshare of the uts and ipc namespaces and do not improve
performance.

Use menuconfig objects II - module menu

2007-07-16T16:05:40+00:00

Change menuconfig objects from "menu, config" into "menuconfig" so that the
user can disable the whole feature without entering its menu first.

slob: sparsemem support

2007-07-16T16:05:36+00:00

Currently slob is disabled if we're using sparsemem, due to an earlier
patch from Goto-san.  Slob and static sparsemem work without any trouble as
it is, and the only hiccup is a missing slab_is_available() in the case of
sparsemem extreme.  With this, we're rid of the last set of restrictions
for slob usage.
