2006-03-21V4L/DVB (3504): Medion 7134: Autodetect second bridge chipMichael Krufky
The device, Medion 7134, has two saa7134 chips on it, but only one of them is functional in the current saa7134 driver. This patch adds autodetection for the second, unsupported saa7134 chip, as SAA7134_BOARD_MD7134_BRIDGE_2, and displays a message to the user (in dmesg) indicating that the second chip isn't yet functional. This is useful for users, since two instances of the saa7134 driver will spawn. This patch will prevent confusion by warning the user that only one of the chips on the board are functional. There are other versions of the SAA7134_BOARD_MD7134 with only a single saa7134 bridge/decoder -- those devices will not be affected by this patch. Only devices containing the second chip will display the warning. Signed-off-by: Michael Krufky <mkrufky@linuxtv.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2006-03-21V4L/DVB (3446): Saa7134: add support for AVerMedia A169 Dual Analog tuner cardRickard Osser
- Added support for AVerMedia A169 Dual Analog tuner card (dual saa7134 decoders - only 1 working right now) - Added autodetection for both parts of the card.

2006-03-20[TCP]: sysctl to allow TCP window > 32767 sans wscaleRick Jones
Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated. Some ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of the TCP header and would get confused. Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default now. There is a sysctl added so that we can still interact with such old stacks Signed-off-by: Rick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-03-08[PATCH] i386: port ATI timer fix from x86_64 to i386 IIAndi Kleen
ATI chipsets tend to generate double timer interrupts for the local APIC timer when both the 8254 and the IO-APIC timer pins are enabled. This is because they route it to both and the result is anded together and the CPU ends up processing it twice. This patch changes check_timer to disable the 8254 routing for interrupt 0. I think it would be safe on all chipsets actually (i tested it on a couple and it worked everywhere) and Windows seems to do it in a similar way, but to be conservative this patch only enables this mode on ATI (and adds options to enable/disable too) Ported over from a similar x86-64 change. I reused the ACPI earlyquirk infrastructure for the ATI bridge check, but tweaked it a bit to work even without ACPI. Inspired by a patch from Chuck Ebbert, but redone.

2006-03-08[PATCH] rcu batch tuningDipankar Sarma
This patch adds new tunables for RCU queue and finished batches. There are two types of controls - number of completed RCU updates invoked in a batch (blimit) and monitoring for high rate of incoming RCUs on a cpu (qhimark, qlowmark). By default, the per-cpu batch limit is set to a small value. If the input RCU rate exceeds the high watermark, we do two things - force quiescent state on all cpus and set the batch limit of the CPU to INTMAX. Setting batch limit to INTMAX forces all finished RCUs to be processed in one shot. If we have more than INTMAX RCUs queued up, then we have bigger problems anyway. Once the incoming queued RCUs fall below the low watermark, the batch limit is set to the default. Signed-off-by: Dipankar Sarma <dipankar@in.ibm.com> Cc: "Paul E.
