Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[PATCH] fix missing includes I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

[PATCH] kernel/param.c: don't use .max when .num is NULL in param_array_set() there seems to be a bug, at least for me, in kernel/param.c for arrays with .num == NULL. If .num == NULL, the function param_array_set() uses &.max for the call to param_array(), wich alters the .max value to the number of arguments. The result is, you can't set more array arguments as the last time you set the parameter. example: # a module 'example' with # static int array[10] = { 0, }; # module_param_array(array, int, NULL, 0644); $ insmod example.ko array=1,2,3 $ cat /sys/module/example/parameters/array 1,2,3 $ echo "4,3,2,1" > /sys/module/example/parameters/array $ dmesg | tail -n 1 kernel: array: can take only 3 arguments Signed-off-by: Bert Wesarg <wesarg@informatik.uni-halle.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

fix param_sysfs_builtin name length check Commit faf8c714f4508207a9c81cc94dafc76ed6680b44 caused a regression: parameter names longer than MAX_KBUILD_MODNAME will now be rejected, although we just need to keep the module name part that short. This patch restores the old behaviour while still avoiding that memchr is called with its length parameter larger than the total string length.

[PATCH] module_subsys: initialize earlier Initialize module_subsys earlier (or at least earlier than devices) since it could be used very early in the boot process if kmod loads a module before the device initcalls. Otherwise, kmod will crash in kernel/module.c:mod_sysfs_setup() since the kset in module_subsys is not initialized yet. I only noticed this problem because occasionally, kmod loads the modules for my SCSI and Ethernet adapters very early, during the boot process itself. I don't quite understand why it loads them sometimes and doesn't load them other times. Or who is telling kmod to do so. Can someone explain?
