[PATCH 02/10] tracepoints: Add check trace callback type
From: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers(a)efficios.com> This check is meant to be used by tracepoint users which do a direct cast of callbacks to (void *) for direct registration, thus bypassing the register_trace_##name and unregister_trace_##name checks. This permits to ensure that the callback type matches ... 11 May 2010 15:39

PATCHv1 0/1 Enable ulpi phy on freescale mx51 babbage hw
This patch was accidently left out of the original set of patches for enabling USB Host support on Freescale's MX51 Babbage HW. This patch brings the USB ULPI PHY on Host1 out of reset, which is required for enabling Host1 of the hardware. Thanks, Dinh Nguyen -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line... 11 May 2010 15:39

[PATCH 0/2] ioatdma: ring buffer management updates
Two patches targeted at the next merge window affecting the ioatdma driver (used when NET_DMA and/or ASYNC_TX_DMA+MD_RAID456 are enabled). According to perf the split locking update improves cpu utilization by a few percentage points. --- Dan Williams (2): ioat2,3: convert to producer/consumer locking ... 11 May 2010 15:39

[PATCH 2.6.34-rc7] mx5: bring usb ulpi phy out of reset on freescale mx51 babbage hw
From: Dinh Nguyen <Dinh.Nguyen(a)freescale.com> This patch de-asserts the reset line that is connected to the USB ULPI PHY on USB Host1. This patch should be included with the original USB host enablement set of patches of mx51 babbage hw, but was accidentily left out. This patch applies to 2.6.34-rc7 and on t... 11 May 2010 15:39

virtio: power management
Anyone looked at power management with virtio? virtio-pci has callbacks to save/restore pci config on suspend/resume, but it seems that more action, such as restoring queue state, would be needed for e.g. suspend to disk to work. Rusty, any hints on the code in virtio-pci that deals with suspend? Is it incomple... 11 May 2010 14:32
