Original discussion: http://archives.andrew.net.au/lm-sensors/msg29038.html http://archives.andrew.net.au/lm-sensors/msg29041.html Bottom line: The "id" member of the i2c_client structure was discarded in Linux 2.6 due to a lack of consistent use and overall need. While we of course won't backport this to Linux 2.4 so as to not break compatibility with existing 2.4 drivers, it still seems wise to update the documentation so that new drivers written for Linux 2.4 today (*sigh*) do not rely on it. ChangeSet@1.1521.1.64, 2005-01-29 14:21:15-02:00, khali@linux-fr.org [PATCH] I2C updates: small header cleanups While editing i2c-algo-bit.c and i2c-algo-pcf.c (see 1/3 of this patch set), I noticed that both files include header files they do not need at all (namely linux/ioport.h and asm/uaccess.h). The following patch cleans this, additionally bringing the files in line with what we have in i2c CVS (thus the blank lines changes).

Credits go to Ian Campbell for noticing and proposing patches. This is a backport from Linux 2.6.11-rc1.

If the last session of the disk starts beyond block 1152000 (LBA) there's an overflow in the MSF format and kernel complains: Unable to identify CD-ROM format. So read the multi-session TOC in LBA format in order to avoid an overflow in MSF format with multisession DVDs.

The '0x' is needed in the final autoconf.h, and its absence causes the following problem. If I start with a hex value in my config file like this: CONFIG_LOWMEM_SIZE=0x40000000 When I run make oldconfig, it strips out the '0x' leaving this: CONFIG_LOWMEM_SIZE=40000000 Then if I run make xconfig, this is not considered a valid hex value, so it replaces my value with the default: CONFIG_LOWMEM_SIZE=0x20000000 The following patch removes the lines that strip the 0x from the hex value. It also checks the result for the leading 0x and inserts it if necessary. ChangeSet@1.1521.1.60, 2005-01-28 07:43:18-02:00, marcelo@logos.cnet Hugh Dickins: remove rlim_rss and this RLIMIT_RSS code from madvise. Presumably the code crept in by mistake. Isn't the right fix just to remove rlim_rss and this RLIMIT_RSS code from here? It's pretty silly for madvise alone to be taking notice of it. Presumably the code crept in by mistake from some tree which was using an RLIMIT_RSS patch on 2.4.

Amazing that this has never been noticed before - I bet not many people use RSS limits with madvise(). This transform the rlimit in pages before the comparison, can you please test it.

The problem is that when an app spans more than one L1 entry, we don't have all of the correct information, and do_page_fault() things a protection fault happened, when it didn't really.
