2007-10-19	Combine instrumentation menus in kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation	Mathieu Desnoyers	1	-23/+0
	Quoting Randy: "It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file, 20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into 20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing. However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make _one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES, and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

2007-02-13	sh: Fixup cpu_data references for the non-boot CPUs.	Paul Mundt	1	-1/+1
	There are a lot of bogus cpu_data-> references that only end up working for the boot CPU, convert these to current_cpu_data to fixup SMP. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2007-02-12	[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 2	Arjan van de Ven	1	-1/+1
	Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2006-06-26	[PATCH] oprofile: Fix unnecessary cleverness	Markus Armbruster	1	-1/+1
	nmi_create_files() in arch/i386/oprofile/nmi_int.c depends on model->num_counters (number of performance counters) being less than 10. While this is currently the case, it's too clever by half. Other archs aren't quite as clever: they assume 100. I suggest to normalize them all to 1000.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	4	-0/+340
	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!
