usbutils 0.87 release
Published (2010-03-17 15:00:00)
Here's the 0.87 release of usbutils. There are some fixes for people having problems with the latest libusb version, minor code edits, and some new USB class logic. The whole changelog is below. The package can be downladed from kernel.org: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/usb/usbutils/ We've switched over to using git for development now, which makes things much easier than the old cvs tree. The tree can be found on both...

I can build/boot 2.6.33 with CONFIG_TRACE/ tracing disabled successfully,
but when I enable lots of tracing config options and then boot with
ftrace=nop on the kernel command line, I see a GP fault when the parport &
parport_pc modules are loading/initializing.
It happens in drivers/parport/share.c: arport_register_device(), when that
function calls try_module_get().

Currently c1e_idle returns true for all CPUs greater than or equal to
family 0xf model 0x40. This covers too many CPUs.
Meanwhile a respective erratum for the underlying problem was filed

I changed all things reported by checkpatch.pl except some long lines
and the use of externs in a .c file. I also removed revision comments
and "commented out" code.
Please review this closely as the generated .o differs from the
mainline one but I suspect that is because I removed the explicit
initialization to 0 in a couple of statics..

This is a rebase on top of mmotm for consideration of merging. These are
based up and tested on mmotm-2010-03-09-19-15 minus the sysctl changes that
cause locking-related spew all over the console during boot time. The spew
problem has been reported already in the thread "mmotm 2010-03-09-19-15:

Hello, guys.
It looks like transition to ATA 4k drives will be quite painful and we
aren't really ready although these drives are already selling widely.
I've written up a summary document on the issue to clarify stuff as
it's getting more and more confusing and develop some consensus. It's
also on the linux ata wiki.

Control the maximum amount of dirty pages a cgroup can have at any given time.
Per cgroup dirty limit is like fixing the max amount of dirty (hard to reclaim)
page cache used by any cgroup. So, in case of multiple cgroup writers, they
will not be able to consume more than their designated share of dirty pages and
will be forced to perform write-out if they cross that limit.

Current lockdep is too complicated because,
* dependency validation
* statistics
* event tracing
are all implemented by it.
This cause problem of overhead.
If user enables one of them, overhead of rests part is not avoidable.
(tracing is exception. If user enables validation or stat,
overhead of tracing doesn't occur.)
So I suggest new subsystem "lock monitor".

Hoy there !
This may have been discussed earlier (I have some vague memories...) but
I just hit a problem with that again (Mark: hint, it's in hdparm's
fallocate) so I'd like a bit of a refresh here on what is the "right
thing" to do...
So some syscalls want a 64-bit argument. Let's take fallocate() as our
example. So we already know that we have to be extra careful since ...
