• 7e96287dd   [PATCH] kdump: introduce "reset_devices" command line option ... Browse Code »

  Resetting the devices during driver initialization can be a costly
  operation in terms of time (especially scsi devices). This option can be
  used by drivers to know that user forcibly wants the devices to be reset
  during initialization.

  This option can be useful while kernel is booting in unreliable
  environment. For ex. during kdump boot where devices are in unknown
  random state and BIOS execution has been skipped.

• 9d99aaa31   [PATCH] x86_64: Support memory hotadd without sparsemem ... Browse Code »

  Memory hotadd doesn't need SPARSEMEM, but can be handled by just preallocating
  mem_maps. This only needs some untangling of ifdefs to enable the necessary
  code even without SPARSEMEM.

  Originally from Keith Mannthey, hacked by AK.

  Add __meminit to the __init lineup to ensure functions default
  to __init when memory hotplug is not enabled. Replace __devinit
  with __meminit on functions that were changed when the memory
  hotplug code was introduced.

• e6982c671   [PATCH] x86_64: Change init sections for CPU hotplug support ... Browse Code »

  This patch adds __cpuinit and __cpuinitdata sections that need to exist past
  boot to support cpu hotplug.

  Caveat: This is done *only* for EM64T CPU Hotplug support, on request from
  Andi Kleen. Much of the generic hotplug code in kernel, and none of the other
  archs that support CPU hotplug today, i386, ia64, ppc64, s390 and parisc dont
  mark sections with __cpuinit, but only mark them as __devinit, and
  __devinitdata.

  If someone is motivated to change generic code, we need to make sure all
  existing hotplug code does not break, on other arch's that dont use __cpuinit,
  and __cpudevinit.

  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!
