IRQ disable vs NMI
From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra(a)chello.nl> Date: Tue, 06 Apr 2010 15:28:07 +0200 This patch set tries to solve the local_irq_disable() vs NMI problem that SPARC has by providing new arch hooks and instrumenting the existing interface to WARN on conflicting usage. Thanks Peter, looks good at first sigh... 6 Apr 2010 19:51

[PATCH 6/6] i2c: davinci: bus recovery procedure to clear the bus
From: Philby John <pjohn(a)in.mvista.com> Come out of i2c time out condition by following the bus recovery procedure outlined in the i2c protocol v3 spec. The kernel must be robust enough to gracefully recover from i2c bus failure without having to reset the machine. This is done by first NACKing the slave, pulsin... 6 Apr 2010 14:10

[patch] jbd: tag journal writes as metadata I/O
Hi, In running iozone for writes to small files, we noticed a pretty big discrepency between the performance of the deadline and cfq I/O schedulers. Investigation showed that I/O was being issued from 2 different contexts: the iozone process itself, and the jbd/sdh-8 thread (as expected). Because of the way cf... 6 Apr 2010 13:02

[patch v2] dma-debug: cleanup for loop
Earlier in this function we set the last byte of "buf" to NULL so we always hit the break statement and "i" is never equal to NAME_MAX_LEN. This patch doesn't change how the driver works but it silences a Smatch warning and it makes it clearer that we don't write past the end of the array. Signed-off-by: Da... 6 Apr 2010 13:02
