  • I'm trying to generate a of s in docbook for wireless to
    link together all the cfg80211 and mac80211 documentation.

    However, docbook will generate "re01.html" anew for each book for the
    first , presumably due to a bug in the stylesheets.

    An effective workaround is to use IDs for the filenames, which makes
    them more descriptive as well, e.g. API-enum-ieee80211-band.html.

  • Separate USB code into a file separate from asic/asic_devices.

    Separating the USB code from everything else in asic/asic_devices.c goes
    a long way toward reducing the use of that file as a dumping ground for
    everything that didn't seem to fit anywhere else.

  • We reserve the 3.75GB - 4GB region of PCIe address space for device to
    device transfers, making the corresponding physical memory under
    direct mapping unavailable for DMA.

    To allow for PCIe DMA to all physical memory we map this chunk of
    physical memory with BAR1. Because of the resulting discontinuity in
    the mapping function, we remove a page of memory at each end of the
    range so multi-page DMA buffers can never be allocated that span the
    range.

  • The sixth argument of notify_die() is a signal number, the fifth is a
    trap number.

    Instead of passing a signal number in a randomly selected argument,
    pass it in the sixth. Extract the exception code from regs and pass
    that as the trap number.

    Get rid of redundant cast, and remove some gratuitous spaces.

    Nobody actually does anything with the signal number or trap number,
    but we might as well populate them with sensible values.
