[PATCH] trace-cmd: prevent print_graph_duration buffer overflow
Passing n > sizeof(string) to snprintf can cause a glibc buffer overflow condition. We know the exact size of nsecs_str, so use it instead of math that may overflow.

[PATCH] trace-cmd: append to CFLAGS instead of being overriden

[PATCH 03/12] irq: use desc->poll_timer for irqpoll
Due to tickless and missing IRQF_IRQPOLL flags, irqpoll has been broken in many configurations for quite some time. Make irqpoll global polling use desc->poll_timer instead.

[PATCH 12/12] usb: use IRQ watching
Ask IRQ subsystem to watch HCD IRQ line after initialization. This at least keeps USB ports which are occupied on initialization working and eases bug reporting and debugging.

read(2) hangs waiting for data from a closed socket

I didn't notice when exactly this started happening (I started running full desktop on 2.6.35 only since -rc3) and haven't bisected yet (I'll try, time and our daughter permitti... 13 Jun 2010 16:03
