[PATCH 1/1] CPM1: Don't send break on TX_STOP, don't interrupt RX/TX when adjusting termios parameters
From: Nye Liu <nyet(a)mrv.com> Before setting STOP_TX, set _brkcr to 0 so the SMC does not send a break character. The driver appears to properly re-initialize _brkcr when the SMC is restarted. Do not interrupt RX/TX when the termios is being adjusted; it results in corrupted characters appearing on the line. ... 20 Jun 2008 16:22

Limit E820 map when a user-defined memory 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 li... 20 Jun 2008 16:22

network socket receive splice size
I am using the splice syscall in kernel 2.6.25.4 with network socket receive to splice incoming and outgoing TCP sockets. I perform something like the following: #define SPLICE_SIZE (12*1024) int fd[2]; ret = pipe(fd); ret = splice(src, NULL, fd[1], NULL, SPLICE_SIZE, SPLICE_F_MORE | SPLICE_F_MOVE); ... 20 Jun 2008 16:22
