Threaded irq handler question
Hi all, I have a threaded irq handler attached to a level-triggered gpio interrupt line. The check handler checks the status of the gpio line and disables the irq line amd returns WAKE_THREAD in that case: static irqreturn_t isr_check(int irq, void *p) { if (gpio_status()) { disable_i... 23 Apr 2010 21:17

[PATCH] perf: fix initialization bug in parse_single_tracepoint_event()
The parse_single_tracepoint_event() was setting some attributes before it validated the event was indeed a tracepoint event. This caused problems with other initialization routines like in the builtin-top.c module whereby sample_period is not set if not 0.

[PATCH] mtd: Do not corrupt backing device for inode
We cannot modify file->f_mapping->backing_dev_info directly, because it will corrupt backing device for inode, since inode->i_mapping == file->f_mapping (see __dentry_open() in fs/open.c). So we have to copy f_mapping first. Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov <kirill(a)shutemov.name> --- drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c |... 23 Apr 2010 21:14
