2007-03-06[PATCH] knfsd: provide sunrpc pool_mode module optionGreg Banks
Provide a module param "pool_mode" for sunrpc.ko which allows a sysadmin to choose the mode for mapping NFS thread service pools to CPUs. Values are: auto choose a mapping mode heuristically global (default, same as the pre-2.6.19 code) a single global pool percpu one pool per CPU pernode one pool per NUMA node Note that since 2.6.19 the hardcoded behaviour has been "auto", this patch makes the default "global". The pool mode can be changed after boot/modprobe using /sys, if the NFS and lockd services have been shut down. A useful side effect of this change is to fix a small memory leak when unloading the module.

2007-03-06[ALSA] cmipci - Allow to disable integrated FM portTakashi Iwai
The driver didn't allow to disable the integrated FM port (if available), and this annoyed people who don't want FM port. Now fm_port=0 disables the FM port unconditionally. fm_port=1 is used for enabling the integrated FM port (as default). Also fixed the documentation about this option. Fix ALSA bug#2491.

2007-03-05[PATCH] schedule wext/rtnl for removalJohannes Berg
Since wext is being replaced as fast as we can (it'll probably stick around for legacy drivers though) and the wext/netlink stuff was never really used, this schedules it for removal. The removal schedule is tight but there are no users of the code, the main user of the wext user interface are the wireless-tools, they only have an alpha version using the netlink interface and even that is incomplete.

2007-02-23USB: make autosuspend delay a module parameterAlan Stern
This patch (as859) makes the default USB autosuspend delay a module parameter of usbcore. By setting the delay value at boot time, users will be able to prevent the system from autosuspending devices which for some reason can't handle it. The patch also stores the autosuspend delay as a per-device value. A later patch will allow the user to change the value, tailoring the delay for each individual device. A delay value of 0 will prevent autosuspend. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2007-02-20[PATCH] fs: fix libfs data leakNick Piggin
simple_prepare_write leaks uninitialised kernel data. This happens because the it leaves an uninitialised "hole" over the part of the page that the write is expected to go to. This is fine, but it then marks the page uptodate, which means a concurrent read can come in and copy the uninitialised memory into userspace before it written to. Fix it by simply marking it uptodate in simple_commit_write instead, after the hole has been filled in. This could theoretically break an fs that uses simple_prepare_write and not simple_commit_write, and that relies on the incorrect simple_prepare_write behaviour. Luckily, none of those exists in the tree.

2007-02-189p: implement optional loose read cacheEric Van Hensbergen
While cacheing is generally frowned upon in the 9p world, it has its place -- particularly in situations where the remote file system is exclusive and/or read-only. The vacfs views of venti content addressable store are a real-world instance of such a situation. To facilitate higher performance for these workloads (and eventually use the fscache patches), we have enabled a "loose" cache mode which does not attempt to maintain any form of consistency on the page-cache or dcache. This results in over two orders of magnitude performance improvement for cacheable block reads in the Bonnie benchmark. The more aggressive use of the dcache also seems to improve metadata operational performance. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
