Subject: 2.6.19-rc4-mm1


It should be here:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.19-rc4/2.6.19-rc4-mm1/

but mirroring has broken, so I've temporarily put a copy here:

http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/2.6.19-rc4-mm1/

Please check ftp.kernel.org (or http://www.kernel.org) first.




- 2.6.19-rc3-mm1 was rather a mess. This is mainly an attempt to repair it.

- The ACPI tree has been dropped due to Rafael's testing failures.

- The driver tree has been dropped due to various problems. Consequently a
string of patches which are destined for the driver tree have also been
temporarily removed. Various other patches have been set aside, rejects
have been fixed up, etc. Dropping trees is a pain.

- None of the other quilt trees (gregkh-*, jdelvare-*, x86_64-mm-*) have
been repulled since 2.6.19-rc3-mm1. But the git trees were repulled a few
hours ago.



Boilerplate:

- See the `hot-fixes' directory for any important updates to this patchset.

- To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example)

git fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git v2.6.16-rc2-mm1

- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the
mm-commits mailing list.

echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail [email protected]

- If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch caused it, it is
most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
introduced the bug. Instructions for this process are at

http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt

But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.

- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
list on any email.

- When reporting bugs in this kernel via email, please also rewrite the
email Subject: in some manner to reflect the nature of the bug. Some
developers filter by Subject: when looking for messages to read.

- Semi-daily snapshots of the -mm lineup are uploaded to
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/mm/ and are announced on
the mm-commits list.

Subject: [PATCH] sunrpc/auth_gss: auth_domain refcount fix

Please put this patch together with
auth_gss-unregister-gss_domain-when-unloading-module.patch.

Because recent auth_domain_lookup() refcounting change affected it.

Subject: [PATCH] sunrpc/auth_gss: auth_domain refcount fix

It is unnecessary to decrease refcount after auth_domain_lookup()
when new entry is inserted.

Rafael has confirmed that the latest ACPI tree works on his system,
please resume pulling the ACPI tree into the -mm tree.

OK. I have the six build fixes which I think were all against the
now-removed ACPICA code. I'll send them over then drop them.

I think most of this was my fault, so I'll take the blame here...

I have fixed up (hopefully) all of these issues now, so feel free to
pull my trees in into the next -mm release.
