      [PATCH] block_read_full_page() get_block() error handling fix · c64610ba
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      If block_read_full_page() detects an error when running get_block() it will
run SetPageError(), then it will zero out the block in pagecache and will mark
the buffer_head uptodate.

So at the end of readahead we end up with a non-uptodate pagecache page which
is marked PageError.  But it has uptodate buffers.

The pagefault code will run ClearPageError, will launch readpage a second time
and block_read_full_page() will notice the uptodate buffers and will mark the
page uptodate as well.  We end up with an uptodate, !PageError page full of
zeros and the error is lost.

(It seems a little odd that filemap_nopage() runs ClearPageError().  I guess
all of this adds up to meaning that for each attempted access to the page, the
pagefault handler will retry the I/O.  Which is good and bad.  If the app is
ignoring SIGBUS for some reason we could get a lot of back-to-back I/O
errors.)

Fix it by not marking the pagecache buffer_head as uptodate if the attempt to
map that buffer to a disk block failed.

      [PATCH] fix impossible VmallocChunk · 64d13c00
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      VmallocTotal: 34359738367 kB
VmallocUsed:    266288 kB
VmallocChunk: 18014366299193295 kB
is unsettling - x86_64 and some other architectures keep a separate address
range for modules in vmalloc's vmlist, which /proc/meminfo should pass over.

      [PATCH] revert msdos partitioning fix · b2411dd2
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      This change from March 3rd causes the partition parsing code to ignore
partitions which have a signature byte of zero.  Turns out that more people
have such partitions than we expected, and their device numbering is coming up
wrong in post-2.6.11 kernels.

So revert the change while we think about the problem a bit more.

      [PATCH] DocBook: changes and extensions to the kernel documentation · 4dc3b16b
      由 Pavel Pisa 提交于 
      I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our
university students again.  The documentation could be extended for more
sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels.  I
have tried to proceed with that task.  I have done that more times from 2.6.0
time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again.  Linux kernel
compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets.  I have added references to
some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well.
 So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are
not too much skewed.

I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved
by kernel convention.  Most of the other changes are modifications in the
comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do
not bail out on errors.  Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some
#ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc.

You can see result of the modified documentation build at
  http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz

Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated
documentation.  Sources has been added into kernel-api for now.  Some more
section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick
cleanup work.
