I've had to punch out my Tekram fix, since the driver seems to have messed up further in the meanwhile. I'm especially interested in Alpha testers these days, so please try it if you have your Alpha around. You can get the diff against Linux 2.5.34 at For the sake of security our staff decided to put aside the ftp server, so don't wonder why I'm releasing it via HTTP. Thunder Changes for Linux 2.5.34-ct1 ============================ : o ALSA bug, isa cmi8330 : o IRQ patch : o A small documentation update and a unused constant removal : o OSS compile fix o SCTP typo fix : o fix __FUNCTION__ use in ip_nat_helper.c : o q40kbd fixes : o fix polling logic/add writeability Adam J. Richter : o shave a six bytes from the loaded size of pcspkr.o and another 90 elsewhere in the .o file o fix building list of drives in reverse order Alexander Viro : o Missing IDE partition 3 of 3 Andi Kleen : o Fix RELOC_HIDE miscompilation Andi Kleen : o we must not call request_region() in i8042-io.h Andre Hedrick : o SCSI ST driver patches o IDE taskfile patches o IDE patches, extending Al Viro's IDE Andrew Morton : o radix_tree_gang_lookup o Janet Morgan's readv/writev rework Bob Miller : o No more FIXMEs in the sysctl Brad Hards : o Change "D: Drivers=" to "H: Handlers=" in /proc/bus/input/devices Chris Wright : o kernel-api DocBook fix Christoph Hellwig : o list.h update David S.

This also introduces the CPU brlock o change cpu masks to a generic bitmap, and introduce migrate_to_cpu() as a convenience function o rename bitmap_member to DECLARE_BITMAP, and move it to bitops.h o get_cpu_var(var) should be an lvalue. Spotted by Dipankar Sarma o Generated files destruction o per-cpu only for possible CPUs o More designated initializer works o is_smp() and can_be_smp() Sam Ravnborg : o zftape: Cleanup zftape_syms.c o update ftape symbol exports Skip Ford : o ufs/super.c Stephen Rothwell : o fcntl.h consolidation Thunder from the hill : o remove unused variables Thunder from the hill : o alignment fix (off by one) o toshiba needs interrupts o correct exported symbols o Updated to Linux 2.5.34 o list_t removal o do_fork requires some more arguments on Alpha o Correct incomplete lock declarations o More designated initializer work o Further __FUNCTION__ madness all over o Further macro corrections. If you use my patches, please apply them completely o Updated to Linux 2.5.33 o Correct __FUNCTION__ macro madness on old compilers o Don't concatenate with __FUNCTION__ o Export symbols patches, v5 o Import Linux 2.5.32 Vojtech Pavlik : o fix problems in serport.c found by Russell King o Change beginning tags Zwane Mwaikambo : o set pci dma mask for ohci-hcd o pci_free_consistent on ohci initialisation failure -- Lightweight Patch Manager, without pine.
