A security issue is emerging. Disallow Routing Header Type 0 by default
as we have been doing for IPv4.
Note: We allow RH2 by default because it is harmless.Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki

noreplacement is dangerous on modern systems because it will not replace the
context switch FNSAVE with SSE aware FXSAVE. But other places in the kernel still assume
SSE and do FXSAVE and the CPU will then access FXSAVE information with
FNSAVE and cause corruption.Easiest way to avoid this is to remove the option. It was mostly for paranoia
reasons anyways and alternative()s have been stable for some time.Thanks to Jeremy F. for reporting and helping debug it.

Nobody ported ffmpeg from dv1394 to rawiso yet, and there is no
justification to remove dv1394 right now.Nevertheless, a strong deprecation of this ABI makes a lot of sense,
especially as Kristian H's drivers shape up to be an attractive
alternative to the existing ones. But we don't have a schedule at the
moment.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter

It seems that there must be at least one node in mems and at least one CPU
in cpus in order to be able to assign tasks to a cpuset. This makes sense.
And I think it would also make sense to include a mems setting in the
basic usage section of the documentation.I also wonder if something logged to dmsg, explaining why a write failed,
would be a good enhancement. I ended up having rummage arround in cpuset.c
in order to work out why my configuration was failing.Signed-off-by: Simon Horman

o The AX.25 Howto is unmaintained since several years. I've replaced it
with a wiki at http://www.linux-ax25.org which provides more uptodate
information.
o Change default for AX25_DAMA_SLAVE to Y. AX25_DAMA_SLAVE only compiles
in support for DAMA but doesn't activate it. I hope this gets Linux
distributions to ship their AX.25 kernels with AX25_DAMA_SLAVE enabled.
The price for this would be very small.
o Delete historic changelog from comments, that's what SCM systems are
meant to do.
o ---help--- in Kconfig looks so yellingly eye insulting. Use just help.
o Rewrite the commented out piece of old Linux 2.4 configuration language
to Kconfig for consistency.

It turned out that it is almost impossible to trust ACPI, BIOS & Co.
regarding the C states. This was the reason to switch the local apic
timer off in C2 state already. OTOH there are sane and well behaving
systems, which get punished by that decision.Allow the user to confirm that the local apic timer is trustworthy in C2
state. This keeps the default behaviour on the safe side.Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner

ACPICA: revert "acpi_serialize" changes
sony-laptop: MAINTAINERS fix entry, add L: and W:
ACPI: resolve HP nx6125 S3 immediate wakeup regression
ACPI: Add support to parse 2nd MADT -
The local APIC timer stops to work in deeper C-States. This is handled by
the ACPI code and a broadcast mechanism in the clockevents / tick managment
code.Some systems do not expose the deeper C-States to the kernel, but switch
into deeper C-States behind the kernels back. This delays the local apic
timer interrupts for ever and makes the systems unusable.Add a command line option to disable the local apic timer and a dmi
quirk for known broken systems.Andi sayeth:
While not wrong by itself i think it is still better to use some heuristic
-- like "has battery in ACPI" With the DMI table if the problem is more wide
spread we will just continue extending it.But anyways should be ok now for .21 although I'm not really happy with
it.Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner

there is a tiny bug in Documentation/crypto/api-intro.txt.
The file has the following example code:struct scatterlist sg[2];
[...]
if (crypto_hash_digest(&desc, &sg, 2, result))which does not match the declaration of crypto_hash_digest() in
include/linux/crypto.h.(static inline int crypto_hash_digest(struct hash_desc *desc,
struct scatterlist *sg, unsigned int nbytes, u8 *out)The code in the example passes the address of a pointer (an array actually) as
the second argument, while the function expects the pointer itself.I have attached a patch to fix this.

It's been pointed out that output GPIOs should have an initial value, to
avoid signal glitching ... among other things, it can be some time before
a driver is ready. This patch corrects that oversight, fixing- documentation
- platforms supporting the GPIO interface
- users of that call (just one for now, others are pending)There's only one user of this call for now since most platforms are still
using non-generic GPIO setup code, which in most cases already couples the
initial value with its "set output mode" request.Note that most platforms are clear about the hardware letting the output
value be set before the pin direction is changed, but the s3c241x docs are
vague on that topic ... so those chips might not avoid the glitches.Signed-off-by: David Brownell

Provide a module param "pool_mode" for sunrpc.ko which allows a sysadmin to

global (default, same as the pre-2.6.19 code) a single global pool
percpu one pool per CPU
pernode one pool per NUMA nodeNote that since 2.6.19 the hardcoded behaviour has been "auto", this patch
makes the default "global".The pool mode can be changed after boot/modprobe using /sys, if the NFS and
lockd services have been shut down. A useful side effect of this change is to
fix a small memory leak when unloading the module.Signed-off-by: Greg Banks
