block,ide: simplify bdops->set_capacity() to ->unlock_native_capacity()
From: Tejun Heo <tj(a)kernel.org> Date: Sat, 15 May 2010 20:09:29 +0200 bdops->set_capacity() is unnecessarily generic. All that's required is a simple one way notification to lower level driver telling it to try to unlock native capacity. There's no reason to pass in target capacity or return the new ca... 16 May 2010 03:47

[PATCH] lktdm: Bring support for hardlockup, softlockup and hung task crashes
This adds three new types of kernel "crashes" in the lkdtm driver to trigger hardlockups, softlockups and task hung states at will. The two formers are useful to test the new generic lockup detector and check its further regressions. The latter one is a bonus to check the hung task detector regressions even tho... 16 May 2010 02:43
