2005-05-01	[PATCH] consolidate SIGEV_PAD_SIZE	Stephen Rothwell	1	-2/+0
	Discussing with Matthew Wilcox some of his outstanding patches lead me to this patch (among others). The preamble in struct sigevent can be expressed independently of the architecture. Also use __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE on ia64. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-01	[PATCH] add EOWNERDEAD and ENOTRECOVERABLE version 2	Joe Korty	1	-0/+4
	Add EOWNERDEAD and ENOTRECOVERABLE to all architectures. This is to support the upcoming patches for robust mutexes. We normally don't reserve parts of the name/number space for external patches, but robust mutexes are sufficiently popular and important to justify it in this case.

2005-05-01	[PATCH] move SA_xxx defines to linux/signal.h	Stas Sergeev	1	-14/+0
	The attached patch moves the IRQ-related SA_xxx flags (namely, SA_PROBE, SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM and SA_SHIRQ) from all the arch-specific headers to linux/signal.h. This looks like a left-over after the irq-handling code was consolidated. The code was moved to kernel/irq/, but the flags are still left per-arch. Right now, adding a new IRQ flag to the arch-specific header, like this patch does: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/checkout*/alsa/alsa-driver/utils/patches/pcsp-kernel-2.6.10-03.diff?rev=1.1 no longer works, it breaks the compilation for all other arches, unless you add that flag to all the other arch-specific headers too. So I think such a clean-up makes sense. Signed-off-by: Stas Sergeev <stsp@aknet.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-01	[PATCH] remove all kernel BUGs	Matt Mackall	1	-0/+3
	This patch eliminates all kernel BUGs, trims about 35k off the typical kernel, and makes the system slightly faster. Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-21	[PATCH] alpha: key management syscalls	Richard Henderson	1	-1/+4
	Allocate syscall numbers for add_key, request_key, keyctl.
2005-04-19	[PATCH] freepgt: arch FIRST_USER_ADDRESS 0	Hugh Dickins	1	-1/+1
	Replace misleading definition of FIRST_USER_PGD_NR 0 by definition of FIRST_USER_ADDRESS 0 in all the MMU architectures beyond arm and arm26. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	122	-0/+16026
	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!
