Subject: 2.6.1-rc2-mm1

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.1-rc2/2.6.1-rc2-mm1/

- Some rework to the mt-ranier CDROM support and ATAPI access to MO drives.
Could anyone who uses these please retest.

- A fix for loop-on-ext2-on-cdrom. Also needs testing please.

- A significant amount of work on remap_file_pages() from Ingo. Most
notably, we now support per-page protections within a single VMA. This is
aimed at UML and similar specialised applications which are presently
forced to allocate one VMA per page.

Anyone who is interested in remap_file_pages(), please test.

This adds a new syscall and breaks all non-ia32 architectures.
Instructions as to how to unbreak them is in the
remap_file_pages-prot-2.6.1-H2 patch.

- The remap_file_pages non-blocking infrastructure has been used to
implement prefaulting of minor faults for mappings. This will reduce the
kernel's minor fault rate by up to a factor of eight and has been shown to
offer a few percent speedup on some things.

This needs serious benchmarking please. Tests which involve short-lived
processes.

The remap_file_pages work will probably live in -mm for a while. It
needs careful review - alterations to largely unused code paths are a
concern because of the potential for long-lived security and DoS holes.

- Added an implementation of RAID6 from Peter Anvin. Usage information is
available in the Kconfig help for the feature. I'm sure he'd like to
hear of testing results.

- There's a fix for the Radeon framebuffer card here which we're a bit
wobbly about. if you have such a thing, please send a report.

- Significant amount of rework of the ACPI PM timer source patch. I'm not
sure that I got all the right patches in the right place. John and
Dominik, please double-check.

- Added the latest code drop from DRM CVS. People who use DRM, please test
it.

Well I managed to release this five seconds after 2.6.1-rc3.

2.6.1-rc2-mm1 contains everything which is in 2.6.1-rc3.

I get hard lockups during boot up, in X, and when starting big apps
(mozilla, OOo, Neverwinter Nights, etc). I reverted to -rc1-mm1.

I got the following compile error when trying to compile this driver
statically into a kernel with hotplug enabled:

<-- snip -->

...
drivers/scsi/qla1280.c:4849: error: `qla1280_remove_one' undeclared here

`qla1280_pci_driver.remove')
make[2]: *** [drivers/scsi/qla1280.o] Error 1

<-- snip -->

Since I don't see a good reason why qla1280_remove_one is #ifdef'ed out
in the non-modular case the patch below fixes this problem by removing
two #ifdef's.

Jes, that's your ifdef-magic around around qla1280_remove_one.. Do you
remember why you added it? The only case we don't need it is when
the driver is builtin and CONFIG_HOTPLUG is not set - and in that case
__devexit should get rid of it for us.

The patch looks good to me. In fact that's how it was in the patch
I sent to Jes..
