[RFC][Patch 1/2] markers: introduce DEFINE_TRACE for regular kernel markers
Hi, I wrote a DEFINE_TRACE patch according to my suggestion. Users can still use _trace_mark/trace_mark macro for their module. This patch introduces DEFINE_TRACE() and _DEFINE_TRACE() macros for defining inline functions which wraps trace_mark() and hides the fmt string. These macros only for in-kernel regula... 20 Jun 2008 13:16

Don't you *want* warnings when an 'rm -f' runs into a r/o filesystem? ;) Well, not really. The "rm -f"s are in my startup scripts, supposed to delete stale lock fil... 20 Jun 2008 13:16

[PATCH 3/3] Limit E820 map when a user-defined memory map is specified
This patch brings back limiting of the E820 map when a user-defined E820 map is specified. While the behaviour of i386 (32 bit) was to limit the E820 map (and /proc/iomem), the behaviour of x86-64 (64 bit) was not to limit. That patch limits the E820 map again for both x86 architectures. Code was tested for co... 20 Jun 2008 12:14
