[PATCH tip/core/rcu 3/4] rcu: revert 1883c79a: early boot now handled by lockdep-RCU

[PATCH 0/5] Add multiple event support to perf report V2
Currently perf report is unable to handle multiple events even though perf record is capable of capturing such a stream. For instance if we run 'perf record -e dtlb-misses -e cache-misses sleep 5' today and then ask report to show the results we get: # Samples: 18866 # # Overhead Command Shared Object S... 3 Mar 2010 11:48

[PATCH 1/5] Add ID and to recorded event data when recording multiple events
Currently perf record does not write the ID or the to disk for events. This doesn't allow report to tell if an event stream contains one or more types of events. This patch adds this entry to the list of data that record will write to disk if more than one event was requested. Signed-off-by: Eric B Munson <ebmun... 3 Mar 2010 10:40

X doesn't work with 2.6.33 (can't find any input devices)
From: tytso(a)mit.edu Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2010 10:17:20 -0500 It worked just *fine* using 2.6.33-rc4. I have no xorg.conf file (X is autoconfiguring itself) and I'm using an Ubuntu 9.10 userspace. X uses udev events to find input devices these days, so it's probably the same problem preventing your lvm devices... 6 Mar 2010 20:40

[REGRESSION] X doesn't work with 2.6.33 (can't find any input devices)
After working around lvm breakage so I could at least boot 2.6.33, I'm now finding the next problem --- X doesn't work. If I let X come up, it doesn't find any mouse or keyboard devices, so my machine becomes useless and I have to power cycle it unless I can log in remotely and reboot it. It worked just *fine* ... 3 Mar 2010 10:40

[REGRESSION] Can't boot lvm on root (Ubuntu 9.10 userspace) with 2.6.33
The last kernel I could boot was 2.6.33-rc4, so this might be a regression. As near as I can tell, this udev rule isn't firing: SUBSYSTEM=="block", ACTION=="add|change", ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="lvm*|LVM*", \ RUN+="watershed sh -c '/sbin/lvm vgscan; /sbin/lvm vgchange -a y'" So nothing is showing up in /dev/mappe... 3 Mar 2010 10:40
