2005-07-13	[PATCH] NFS: procfs/sysctl interfaces for lockd do not work on x86_64	Steve Dickson	1	-2/+2
	Allow the setting of NLM timeouts and grace periods through the proc and sysclt interfaces on x86_64 architectures Signed-off-by: Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> Acked-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@fys.uio.no> Cc: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-25	[PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing	Christoph Lameter	1	-1/+1
	1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h: frozen(process) Check for frozen process freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator) thaw_process(process) Restart process frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now 2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all kernel sources except sched.h 3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver 4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN). This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe! Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

	Silence another annoying "failed to contact portmap (errno -512)" on shutdown. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-22	[PATCH] NLM: fix a client-side race on blocking locks.	Trond Myklebust	2	-49/+90
	If the lock blocks, the server may send us a GRANTED message that races with the reply to our LOCK request. Make sure that we catch the GRANTED by queueing up our request on the nlm_blocked list before we send off the first LOCK rpc call. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2005-06-22	[PATCH] RPC: Make rpc_create_client() probe server for RPC program+version support	Trond Myklebust	2	-3/+3
	Ensure that we don't create an RPC client without checking that the server does indeed support the RPC program + version that we are trying to set up. This enables us to immediately return an error to "mount" if it turns out that the server is only supporting NFSv2, when we requested NFSv3 or NFSv4.

2005-06-22	[PATCH] RPC: Make rpc_create_client() destroy the transport on failure.	Trond Myklebust	2	-6/+3
	This saves us a couple of lines of cleanup code for each call. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	13	-0/+5693
	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!
