This makes the new PID TX rate control algorithm the default instead of the rc80211_simple rate control algorithm. The simple algorithm was flawed in several ways: it wasn't responsive at all and didn't age the information it was relying on properly. The PID algorithm allows us to tune characteristics such as responsiveness by adjusting parameters and was found to generally behave better. The default algorithm can be overridden to select simple instead. Which ever algorithm is the default is included as part of the mac80211 module automatically. The other algorithm (simple vs. pid) can be selected for inclusion as well. If EMBEDDED is selected then the choice is available to have no default specified and neither algorithm included in mac80211. The default algorithm can be set through a modparam. While at it, mark rc80211-simple as deprecated, and schedule it for removal. Signed-off-by: NStefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

Remove MSI support from the mthca driver, as scheduled. There is no reason to use MSI instead of MSI-X, since MSI-X performs better. No one has spoken up since MSI support was deprecated in commit f6be6fbe ("IB/mthca: Schedule MSI support for removal"), so apparently the MSI support is unused.

由 Eric W. Biederman 提交于
After adding checking to register_sysctl_table and finding a whole new set of bugs. Missed by countless code reviews and testers I have finally lost patience with the binary sysctl interface. The binary sysctl interface has been sort of deprecated for years and finding a user space program that uses the syscall is more difficult then finding a needle in a haystack. Problems continue to crop up, with the in kernel implementation. So since supporting something that no one uses is silly, deprecate sys_sysctl with a sufficient grace period and notice that the handful of user space applications that care can be fixed or replaced. The /proc/sys sysctl interface that people use will continue to be supported indefinitely. This patch moves the tested warning about sysctls from the path where sys_sysctl to a separate path called from both implementations of sys_sysctl, and it adds a proper entry into Documentation/feature-removal-schedule. Allowing us to revisit this in a couple years time and actually kill sys_sysctl. [lethal@linux-sh.org: sysctl: Fix syscall disabled build] Signed-off-by: NEric W.

The Linux ELF loader is quite complicated and messy code (that could probably need a rewrite, but that's a different chapter). One particular messy part in it is the support for non ELF a.out ld.sos. This was originally added to make transition from a.out to ELF easier because an a.out ELF ld.so could be still build using an older a.out toolkit. But by now that should be fully obsolete and removing it would clean up binfmt_elf.c up a bit. I propose to deprecate this support and remove for 2.6.25. Drawback is that someone still runs their system with a.out ld.so they would need to update the ld.so when updating to a new kernel. This patch just adds an entry to the deprecation file and a printk warning users.

Change ->fault prototype. We now return an int, which contains VM_FAULT_xxx code in the low byte, and FAULT_RET_xxx code in the next byte. FAULT_RET_ code tells the VM whether a page was found, whether it has been locked, and potentially other things. This is not quite the way he wanted it yet, but that's changed in the next patch (which requires changes to arch code). This means we no longer set VM_CAN_INVALIDATE in the vma in order to say that a page is locked which requires filemap_nopage to go away (because we can no longer remain backward compatible without that flag), but we were going to do that anyway. struct fault_data is renamed to struct vm_fault as Linus asked. address is now a void __user * that we should firmly encourage drivers not to use without really good reason. The page is now returned via a page pointer in the vm_fault struct.

由 Nick Piggin 提交于
Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and no users have hit mainline yet.

Allow printk_time to be enabled or disabled at boot time. Previously it could be enabled only, but not disabled. Change printk_time from an int to a bool since that's what it is. Make its logical (exposed) name just be "time" (was "printk_time"). Note: Changes kernel boot option syntax from "time" to "printk.time=value". Since printk_time is declared as a module_param, it can also be changed at run-time by modifying /sys/module/printk/parameters/time to a value of 1/Y/y to enabled it or 0/N/n to disable it. Since printk_time is declared as a module_param, its value can also be set at boot-time by using linux printk.time=<bool> If the "time" boot option is used, print a message that it is deprecated and will be removed.

We have a new RTC subsystem with better drivers. Legacy driver status: * ds1337: The DS1337 and DS1339 are now supported by the rtc-ds1307 driver, so it looks to me like we could even delete the ds1337 driver right away. * ds1374: Will soon be replaced with Scott Wood's rtc-ds1374 driver. * m41t00: The M41T00 is supported by the rtc-ds1307 driver. For the M41T81 and M41T85, the rtc-m41t80 driver written by Atsushi Nemoto should work.
