Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:22:29 -0700 (PDT) From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@transmeta.com> To: Kernel Mailing List <linux-kernel@vger.rutgers.edu> Subject: test7-pre4 test7: - pre1: - fix PCI resource bug that crept in in test6 due to the new requirements to handle multiple bus regions transparently - ll_rw_block documentation - sound driver module counting bugfix and cleanup (move to named initializers) - directory rename bug fix for busy directories (oops) - allow "init_new_context()" to fail - it can do so on some architectures when out of memory. - networking updates - TCP retransmission and ordering logic - fix strsep(). Not that anybody cared. - pre2: - fix modversions.h generation ("make -j dep" works now) - finish 64-bit VFS: getdents64 and fcntl64 (getdents64 also adds the "file type" to the readdir data - VFS layer change. fcntl64 allows 64-bit file locking) - Intel i810 watchdog driver and NS DP83810 network driver - dup2() cannot screw up the file table with threads any more. - pre3: - nfs_commit_rpcsetup() signed comparison bugfix and cleanup - sparc updates and TLB invalidation fix - networking updates (less verbose on the new reordering messages) - network driver Makefile cleanup - Fix segment copy on fork. - tsk->files race fixes: close-on-exec etc. - sound #define cleanups - fs/proc/array.c task_lock cleanup - pre4: - "USE_STANDARD_AS_RULE" - generic Rules.make as rule - arm update (arch/arm, asm-arm, drivers/acorn, Documentation/arm etc) - eicon ISDN driver update (big). - serial.c warnings removal. - compilation fixes under different configurations.. - bounds checking for hpfs code page index. - sparc64 bugfix for atomic_dec_and_lock. Oops. And use flock64. - FAT missed the d_type thing from readdir. - fix tsk->files race fixes from -pre3 ("struct files_struct", not "struct file" and make sure to register the socket fs before we use a pointer to it) - ns558.c: don't leave the driver registered after a failed module load. Either return success, or unregister the PCI driver. And don't leak IO port allocations. - USB OHCI controller fixes for oopses due to races.. - usb updates - 3c59x driver update - VIA KX-133/KT-133 chipset detection and AGP bridge support - raid/raw-io cleanup: use generic_make_request instead of ll_rw_block. - Emu10k1 sound driver update - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
