2006-03-24	[PATCH] Fix "value computed not used" warnings	Takashi Iwai
	Fixes for annoying gcc-4.1 compile warnings "value computed not used". Simply cast to void. (akpm: Linus will go ballistic...) Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-03-20	[NET]: Convert RTNL to mutex.	Stephen Hemminger
	This patch turns the RTNL from a semaphore to a new 2.6.16 mutex and gets rid of some of the leftover legacy. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-03-03	Massive net driver const-ification.	Arjan van de Ven

2006-02-01	8139too: fix a TX timeout watchdog thread against NAPI softirq race	Francois Romieu
	Ingo's stealth lock validator detected that both thread acquire dev->xmit_lock and tp->rx_lock in reverse order. Signed-off-by: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com>
2006-01-10	[PATCH] turn "const static" into "static const"	Jesper Juhl
	ICC likes to complain about storage class not being first, GCC doesn't care much (except for cases like "inline static"). have a hard time seeing how it could break anything. Thanks to Gabriel A. Devenyi for pointing out http://linuxicc.sourceforge.net/ which is what made me create this patch.

2005-11-10	[netdrvr 8139too] fast poll for thread, if an unlikely race occurs	Jeff Garzik
	The rtl8139 thread is triggered only on rare 8139 hardware, the race itself is unlikely, and the impact of racing is low. We don't care enough to create a more-complex race-free solution. Rather, if the trylock fails, we now simply poll twice a second until we do get the lock.
2005-11-04	[netdrvr 8139too] use rtnl_shlock_nowait() rather than rtnl_lock_interruptible()	Jeff Garzik

2005-11-04	[netdrvr 8139too] use cancel_rearming_delayed_work() to cancel thread	Jeff Garzik
	Noted by Herbert Xu.
2005-10-31	[netdrvr 8139too] replace hand-crafted kernel thread with workqueue	Jeff Garzik
	Gone are the days when 8139too was a shining example of how to use kernel threads. Delayed workqueues are easier, and map precisely to our task: running code from a kernel thread, after a periodic sleep.
2005-10-18	[PATCH] 8139too: fix resume for Realtek 8100B/8139D	John W. Linville
	Add "HasHltClk" flag for RTL-8100B/8139D hardware in order to fix problems resuming from suspend-to-RAM. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-09-14	[PATCH] 8139too: support ETHTOOL_GPERMADDR	John W. Linville
	Add support for ETHTOOL_GPERMADDR to 8139too. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-07-27	[PATCH] turn many #if $undefined_string into #ifdef $undefined_string	Olaf Hering
	turn many #if $undefined_string into #ifdef $undefined_string to fix some warnings after -Wno-def was added to global CFLAGS Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-25	[PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing	Christoph Lameter
	1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h: frozen(process) Check for frozen process freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator) thaw_process(process) Restart process frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now 2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all kernel sources except sched.h 3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver 4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN). This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe! Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-12	[PATCH] 8139too: use iomap for pio/mmio	Pekka Enberg
	This patch converts the 8139too driver to use the iomap infrastructure for PIO and MMIO instead of playing macro tricks. I also had to fix read_eeprom(), mdio_sync(), mdio_read(), and mdio_write() to not pass PIO base address to MMIO read() and write() functions. In addition, the patch adds proper __iomem annotations for the driver. Both modes, PIO and MMIO, were tested with a RealTel RTL8139 card on an x86 box. The 8129 support remains untested due to lack of hardware. Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds
	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!
