| |
The -test7 kernel is out there now - I'm not reaching bkbits.net, but it's on the other BK sites, and the tar-ball and patches are uploading to kernel.org right now.
The biggest part of the test7 patches are: - s390 update - DVB update - NFS (v4 in particular) update - cpufreq updates - ACPI update
A lot of the rest are basically a lot of small onelines, along with fairly minor updates (networking fixes for shared skb's for remaining cases, janitorials, cleanups etc).
The more interesting thing is that I and Andrew are trying to calm down development, and I do _not_ want to see patches that don't fix a real and clear bug. In other words, the "cleanup and janitorial" stuff is on hold, and -test8 and then -test9 should be for _stability_ fixes only.
In other words, this should calm things down so that by the end of October we can look at the state of 2.6.0 without having a lot of noise from "not strictly necessary" stuff.

Tom Rini: o [SERIAL] Fix for NS16550A on a Super I/O on PPC o [SERIAL] Make the Startech UART detection 'more correct' o PPC32: Move a few more IBM-40x specific SPRs to the right file
Tommy Christensen: o [VLAN]: Do not modify the data of shared SKBs
Trond Myklebust: o UDP round trip timer fix. Modify Karn's algorithm so that we inherit timeouts from previous requests. o Make the client act correctly if the RPC server's asserts that it does not support a given program, version or procedure call. o Fix up hangs with the upcall mechanism for RPCSEC_GSS and the NFSv4 idmapper. o Increase the NFS readahead so that we at least fill the RPC slot table. o Fix an Oops in the NFSv4 asynchronous unlink code. The v4 getattr "bitmap" was allocated on the stack. o Clean up the nfs_fhget() function. Have the called pass the superblock as a parameter instead of passing it in the form o Rename the struct "nfs4_shareowner". The name was confusing and didn't really relate to any of the RFCs. o The NFSv4 state model assumes that the client machine identifies itself to the server once and once only. o Simplify the synchronous NFS read call interface by passing a pointer to a filled nfs_read_data structure (the same struct used by the asynchronous function calls) o Simplify NFS synchronous write call interface. Pass a pointer to a filled nfs_write_data struct like we do for asynchronous function calls o NFSv4 state model update o Clean up the nfs4_stateid and nfs4_verifier typedefs
Ulrich Drepper: o [NET]: Use task->tgid instead of task->pid in SCM credentials code
Urban Widmark: o [SMBFS]: Create OLD_TO_NEW_foo macros in highuid.h and use them instead of direct references to low2highfoo.
Vinay K. Nallamothu: o [X25]: Use mod_timer(), add missing sock locking to x25_accept()
Wensong Zhang: o [IPVS] fix the unlocking bug in the ip_vs_conn_seq_stop
Wim Van Sebroeck: o USB: problem with uhci-hcd in versions 2.6.0-test5 and 2.6.0-test6
