Nick Piggin b5810039a5 [PATCH] core remove PageReserved
Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED
handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality.

PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page.

All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged
in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount
based freeing of Reserved pages.

MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being
deprecated.  We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be
reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept).

Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all
arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can
be trivially removed.

Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to
determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not.  This still
needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work).

A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and
thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss).  These writes to the struct
page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems.  There are a
number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

James Bottomley 9ccfc756a7 [SCSI] move the mid-layer printk's over to shost/starget/sdev_printk
This should eliminate (at least in the mid layer) to make numeric
assumptions about any of the enumeration variables.  As a side effect,
it will also make all the messages consistent and line us up nicely for
the error logging strategy (if it ever shows itself again).

Greg Kroah-Hartman 53f4654272 [PATCH] Driver Core: fix up all callers of class_device_create()
The previous patch adding the ability to nest struct class_device

fixes up all in-kernel users of the function.

James Bottomley 07542b8323 This patch fixes in st.c the bug in the signed/unsigned int comparison
reported by Doug Gilbert and fixed by him in sg.c (see [PATCH] sg direct
io/mmap oops). Doug fixed the comparison in sg.c. This fix for st.c does not
touch the comparison but makes both arguments signed to remove the
problem. The new code is adapted from linux/fs/bio.c.

Kai Makisara f03a567054 [SCSI] drivers/scsi/st.c: add reference count and related fixes
I have rediffed the patch against 2.6.13-rc5, done a couple of cosmetic
cleanups, and run some tests.  Brian King has acknowledged that it fixes the
problems he has seen. Seems mature enough for inclusion into 2.6.14 (or
later)?

Nate's explanation of the changes:

I've attached patches against 2.6.13rc2. These are basically identical
to my earlier patches, as I found that all issues I'd seen in earlier
kernels still existed in this kernel.

To summarize, the changes are: (more details in my original email)

- add a kref to the scsi_tape structure, and associate reference
counting stuff

- set sr_request->end_io = blk_end_sync_rq so we get notified when an IO
is rejected when the device goes away

- check rq_status when IOs complete, else we don't know that IOs
rejected for a dead device in fact did not complete

- change last_SRpnt so it's set before an async IO is issued (in case
st_sleep_done is bypassed)

- fix a bogus use of last_SRpnt in st_chk_result

Kai Makisara c2c96f46f4 [SCSI] Fix SCSI tape oops at module removal
Removing the SCSI tape module results in an oops in class_device_destroy if
any devices are present. The patch at the end of this message fixes the bug
by moving class_destroy() later in exit_st() so that the class still exists
when devices are removed. (The bug is old but class_simple_device_remove() did
nothing when the class did not exist.)

The patch also fixes a "class leak" in init_st() error path.

I would like to get this into 2.6.13 but it may be too late?

Kai Makisara 16c4b3e207 [SCSI] SCSI tape: fix permissions for SG_IO, etc.
This patch is against 2.6.12-rc3 + linus-patch from April 30. The patch
contains the following fixes:

- CAP_SYS_RAWIO is used instead of CAP_SYS_ADMIN; fix from Alan Cox
- only direct sending of SCSI commands requires this permission
- the st status is modified is successful unload is performed using
  SCSI_IOCTL_STOP_UNIT

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
