Message-ID: <20040408142659.GA1793@mschwid3.boeblingen.de.ibm.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.5.1+cvs20040105i Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 1487 Lines: 36 Hi Andrew, easter egg patches from s390 land. Quite big this time: 36000 lines. The big things are the crypto device driver (6KLOC) and the rewritten qeth driver (23KLOC). I've included the zfcp patches in this patch set as well after I "fixed" the kfree problem. To get the other bug fixes into mainline I side-stepped the kfree issue. There are now release functions for the zfcp_unit and zfcp_port objects but I removed the module_exit function as well. Without the kfree trick we KNOW module unloading to be racy. So far we know of no other feasible solution for this problem. Therefore we removed the support for unloading of the zfcp module. Descriptions: 1) s390 architecture fixes. 2) Common i/o layer fixes. 3) Tape device driver fixes. 4) Dasd driver fix. 5) Network driver fixes. 6) DCSS block device driver fix. 7) The real zfcp bug fixes. 8) zfcp host adapter message cleanup part 1. 9) zfcp host adapter message cleanup part 2. 10) The crypto device driver part 1. 11) The crypto device driver part 2. 12) The rewritten qeth driver. This patch is HUGE and there is no easy way to get it divided into 100K chunks. So I can't sent this to lkml, sorry. If someone wants a copy feel free to kick me. blue skies, Martin. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
