Linux 2.6.31-rc7

From: Linus Torvalds
Date: Fri Aug 21 2009 - 21:26:40 EST



You know the drill, so all together now: "Another week, another -rc
kernel".

Most of the changes are small one-liners, but the dirstat shows the areas
that got a bit more tender loving care:

17.4% arch/arm/mach-omap2/
2.2% arch/arm/mm/
3.8% arch/arm/plat-omap/
24.3% arch/arm/
2.5% arch/microblaze/
29.2% arch/
9.6% drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/
13.2% drivers/gpu/drm/
3.2% drivers/i2c/busses/
2.8% drivers/media/dvb/frontends/
4.7% drivers/media/dvb/siano/
7.6% drivers/media/dvb/
2.6% drivers/media/video/em28xx/
8.2% drivers/media/video/
16.2% drivers/media/
3.0% drivers/net/e1000e/
3.4% drivers/net/ixgbe/
2.6% drivers/net/netxen/
16.6% drivers/net/
50.2% drivers/
2.9% fs/xfs/
5.7% fs/
2.5% include/linux/
3.1% include/
3.1% mm/
2.0% net/
2.5% security/
290 files changed, 3366 insertions(+), 1777 deletions(-)

ie we have some arm and microblaze updates, radeon/drm and media updates,
and network drivers. The rest tends to be a random smattering all over.

But apart from a couple of bigger ones (OMAP GPIO/UART fixes and the
radeom/kms changes), it's really pretty small. The bulk of those 290 files
changed are basically few-liners in 213 commits (shortlog below), and in
general we should have cut down the regression list another tiny bit.

Worth testing: if you've seen NULL pointer oopses with reiserfs under
load, I committed something I hope fixes it. I'd have wished to get
a firm confirmation before doing that, but I wanted to get the fix in
before -rc7, so now I'll just have to wait for results after.

And if you had odd lock-ups with older dual-CPU machines (PPro, P2, P3,
Athlon XP), that should be fixed too.

There's some inotify fixes here too, but I don't think we've confirmed
whether they help the (apparently very hard to trigger) oopses some
people have seen. So please test and report.

Thanks,
Linus
