Subject: linux-next: Tree for June 19

Hi all,

Changes since 20090618:

My fixes tree contains this one commit:

kallsyms: fix inverted valid symbol checking (hopefully this will
make arm configs build reliably again).

This tree fails to build for powerpc allyesconfig.

Linus' tree gained a build failure due to a compiler bug. I have
reverted a commit.

The ext4 tree lost its build failure.

The acpi tree lost its conflicts and build failure.

The slab tree gained a build failure due to a change in Linus' tree. I
have applied a patch.

The md tree lost its conflicts.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have created today's linux-next tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git
(patches at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/sfr/linux-next/). If you
are tracking the linux-next tree using git, you should not use "git pull"
to do so as that will try to merge the new linux-next release with the
old one. You should use "git fetch" as mentioned in the FAQ on the wiki
(see below).

You can see which trees have been included by looking in the Next/Trees
file in the source. There are also quilt-import.log and merge.log files
in the Next directory. Between each merge, the tree was built with
a ppc64_defconfig for powerpc and an allmodconfig for x86_64. After the
final fixups (if any), it is also built with powerpc allnoconfig (32 and
64 bit), ppc44x_defconfig and allyesconfig (minus
CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES) and i386, sparc and sparc64 defconfig.
These builds also have CONFIG_ENABLE_WARN_DEPRECATED,
CONFIG_ENABLE_MUST_CHECK and CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO disabled when necessary.

Below is a summary of the state of the merge.

We are up to 128 trees (counting Linus' and 19 trees of patches pending for
Linus' tree), more are welcome (even if they are currently empty).
Thanks to those who have contributed, and to those who haven't, please do.

Status of my local build tests will be at
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/linux-next . If maintainers want to give
advice about cross compilers/configs that work, we are always open to add
more builds.

Thanks to Jan Dittmer for adding the linux-next tree to his build tests
at http://l4x.org/k/ , the guys at http://test.kernel.org/ and Randy
Dunlap for doing many randconfig builds.

There is a wiki covering stuff to do with linux-next at
http://linux.f-seidel.de/linux-next/pmwiki/ . Thanks to Frank Seidel.

Stephen,
Please add the Simple Firmware Interface "sfi-test" branch to linux-next:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-sfi-2.6.git sfi-test

A description of the project is on the SFI home page: http://simplefirmware.org/

Note: like ACPI's test branch, this branch will be occasionally re-based
as the patches in it evolve.

thanks,
Len Brown, Intel Open Source Technology Center

Is this 2.6.31 or 32 material?

That's fine.

Should I put just you as the contact, or add the mailing list as well?

What I tell everyone: all patches/commits in the tree/series must
have been:

posted to a relevant mailing list
reviewed
unit tested
destined for the next merge window (or the current release)

*before* they are included. The linux-next tree is for integration
testing and to lower the impact of conflicts between subsystems in the
next merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch). It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

Just so you know (since it seems to mostly affect x86) that this will be
entering linux-next either Monday or after -rc1 depending on whether it
is 2.6.31 or 2.6.32 material.

yes:-)

Most that is in in sfi-test at this moment I hope to catch .31.
There will be much more in .32 -- mostly things that depend on
the first batch...

The mailing list is fine (on cc), and I'm on that.
It is redundant to send to both.

The patches are tested on the pre-release platform that
makes use of them. There have been several internal reviews
and re-writes, but since we just got permission to release the
patches last week, they've not been publically vetted yet.

The content is quite close to what I plan to propose for upstream,
but the format is not. I'll be re-factoring the series into
"clean history" and senting them to LKML on Sunday night.

I don't expect much comment on the generic part,
but will want x86 maintainers to buy into the
parts that touch their architecture.

OK, so then don't add any (more) .32 material into that branch until
after Linus' releases 31-rc1, please.

Then please ensure that I can post to that list (I don't want to
subscribe obviously).

OK, then I think I need to hear from the x86 maintainers, at least,
before we include this.

Hi Stephen,

On second though, I'll wait for 2.6.32 merge window to push upstream.

So go ahead and delay pulling sfi-test until after 2.6.31-rc1 is declared.
