*	[PATCH] Optimize sys_times for a single thread process	Christoph Lameter	2005-06-23	1	-0/+5
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Avoid taking the tasklist_lock in sys_times if the process is single threaded. In a NUMA system taking the tasklist_lock may cause a bouncing cacheline if multiple independent processes continually call sys_times to measure their performance.

*	[PATCH] avoid resursive oopses	Alexander Nyberg	2005-06-23	1	-0/+11
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Prevent recursive faults in do_exit() by leaving the task alone and wait for reboot. This may allow a more graceful shutdown and possibly save the original oops.

*	[patch] MCA recovery module undefined symbol fix	Russ Anderson	2005-05-03	1	-0/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The patch "MCA recovery improvements" added do_exit to mca_drv.c. That's fine when the mca recovery code is built in the kernel (CONFIG_IA64_MCA_RECOVERY=y) but breaks building the mca recovery code as a module (CONFIG_IA64_MCA_RECOVERY=m). Most users are currently building this as a module, as loading and unloading the module provides a very convenient way to turn on/off error recovery. This patch exports do_exit, so mca_drv.c can build as a module. Signed-off-by: Russ Anderson (rja@sgi.com) Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
*	[PATCH] make lots of things static	Adrian Bunk	2005-05-01	1	-1/+3
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Another large rollup of various patches from Adrian which make things static where they were needlessly exported. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
*	[PATCH] DocBook: changes and extensions to the kernel documentation	Pavel Pisa	2005-05-01	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our university students again. The documentation could be extended for more sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels. I have tried to proceed with that task. I have done that more times from 2.6.0 time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again. Linux kernel compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets. I have added references to some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well. So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are not too much skewed. I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved by kernel convention. Most of the other changes are modifications in the comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do not bail out on errors. Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some #ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc. You can see result of the modified documentation build at http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated documentation. Sources has been added into kernel-api for now. Some more section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick cleanup work.

*	[PATCH] convert that currently tests _NSIG directly to use valid_signal()	Jesper Juhl	2005-05-01	1	-2/+3
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Convert most of the current code that uses _NSIG directly to instead use valid_signal(). This avoids gcc -W warnings and off-by-one errors.

*	Remove bogus BUG() in kernel/exit.c	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-29	1	-2/+0
\| \| \| \| \| \| \|	It's old sanity checking that may have been useful for debugging, but is just bogus these days. Noticed by Mattia Belletti.
*	[PATCH] reparent_to_init cleanup	Coywolf Qi Hunt	2005-04-17	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch hides reparent_to_init(). reparent_to_init() should only be called by daemonize(). Signed-off-by: Coywolf Qi Hunt <coywolf@lovecn.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
*	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-17	1	-0/+1527
	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!
