2005-04-16[PATCH] reparent_to_init cleanupCoywolf Qi Hunt
This patch hides reparent_to_init(). reparent_to_init() should only be called by daemonize(). Signed-off-by: Coywolf Qi Hunt <coywolf@lovecn.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16[PATCH] cpuset: remove function attribute constBenoit Boissinot
gcc-4 warns with include/linux/cpuset.h:21: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type cpuset_cpus_allowed is declared with const extern const cpumask_t cpuset_cpus_allowed(const struct task_struct *p); First const should be __attribute__((const)), but the gcc manual explains that: "Note that a function that has pointer arguments and examines the data pointed to must not be declared const. Likewise, a function that calls a non-const function usually must not be const. It does not make sense for a const function to return void." The following patch remove const from the function declaration.

2005-04-16[PATCH] pci enumeration on ixp2000: overflow in kernel/resource.cLennert Buytenhek
IXP2000 (ARM-based) platforms use a separate 'struct resource' for PCI MEM space. Resource allocation for PCI BARs always fails because the 'root' resource (the IXP2000 PCI MEM resource) always has the entire address space (00000000-ffffffff) free, and find_resource() calculates the size of that range as ffffffff-00000000+1=0, so all allocations fail because it thinks there is no space. (akpm: pls. double-check) Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16[PATCH] kill #ifndef HAVE_ARCH_GET_SIGNAL_TO_DELIVER in signal.cChristoph Hellwig
Now that no architectures defines HAVE_ARCH_GET_SIGNAL_TO_DELIVER anymore this can go away. It was a transitional hack only. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16[PATCH] kernel/param.c: don't use .max when .num is NULL in param_array_set()Bert Wesarg
there seems to be a bug, at least for me, in kernel/param.c for arrays with .num == NULL. If .num == NULL, the function param_array_set() uses &.max for the call to param_array(), wich alters the .max value to the number of arguments. The result is, you can't set more array arguments as the last time you set the parameter. example: # a module 'example' with # static int array[10] = { 0, }; # module_param_array(array, int, NULL, 0644); $ insmod example.ko array=1,2,3 $ cat /sys/module/example/parameters/array 1,2,3 $ echo "4,3,2,1" > /sys/module/example/parameters/array $ dmesg | tail -n 1 kernel: array: can take only 3 arguments Signed-off-by: Bert Wesarg <wesarg@informatik.uni-halle.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-04-16[PATCH] Fix get_compat_sigevent()David S. Miller
I have no idea how a bug like this lasted so long. Anyways, obvious memset()'ing of incorrect pointer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16[PATCH] re-export cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueueJames Bottomley
This was unexported by Arjan because we have no current users. However, during a conversion from tasklets to workqueues of the parisc led functions, we ran across a case where this was needed. In particular, the open coded equivalent of cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue was implemented incorrectly, which is, I think, all the evidence necessary that this is a useful API.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
