Impact: help prevent extinction of species
The Tasmanian Devil is a shy iconic Australian creature named for its
spine-chilling screech. It is threatened with extinction due to a
scientifically interesting but horrific transmissible facial cancer.This one is standing in for Tux for one release using the far less-known

Add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko by specifying
"disable=1" on module load. We just do the minimum of initializing
inetsw6[] so calls from other modules to inet6_register_protosw()
won't OOPs, then bail out. No IPv6 addresses or sockets can be
created as a result, and a reboot is required to enable IPv6.Signed-off-by: Brian Haley

- The module is ide-core.ko not ide.drivers/ide/ide.c
- It took me a while to figure out what the arguments %d.%d:%d to nodma

- Added a comment to each of the sscanf lines.
- There is a bug, if j is 0 it would previously clear all the other bits

The kernel-api docbook was much larger than any of the others,
so processing it took longer and needed some docbook extras in
some cases, so split it into kernel-api (infrastructure etc.)
and device drivers/device subsystems. This allows these docbooks
to be generated in parallel. (This reduced the docbook processing
time on my 4-proc system with make -j4 from about 5min:16sec to
about 2min:01sec.)The chapters that were moved from kernel-api to device-drivers are:
Driver Basics
Device drivers infrastructure
Parallel Port Devices
Message-based devices
Sound Devices

mmiotrace: count events lost due to not recording
16 Feb, 2009

Impact: prevents confusing the user when buffer size is inadequate
The tracing framework offers a resizeable buffer, which mmiotrace uses
to record events. If the buffer is full, the following events will be
lost. Events should not be lost, so the documentation instructs the user
to increase the buffer size. The buffer size is set via a debugfs file.Mmiotrace documentation was not updated the same time the debugfs file
was changed. The old file was tracing/trace_entries and first contained
the number of entries the buffer had space for, per cpu. Nowadays this
file is replaced with the file tracing/buffer_size_kb, which tells the
amount of memory reserved for the buffer, per cpu, in kilobytes.Previously, a flag had to be toggled via the debugfs file
tracing/tracing_enabled when the buffer size was changed. This is no
longer necessary.The mmiotrace documentation is updated to reflect the current state of
the tracing framework.Signed-off-by: Pekka Paalanen
