*	[PATCH] fix race with preempt_enable()	Nicolas Pitre	2005-12-22	1	-0/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Currently a simple void foo(void) { preempt_enable(); } produces the following code on ARM: foo: bic r3, sp, #8128 bic r3, r3, #63 ldr r2, [r3, #4] ldr r1, [r3, #0] sub r2, r2, #1 tst r1, #4 str r2, [r3, #4] blne preempt_schedule mov pc, lr The problem is that the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag is loaded _before_ the preemption count is stored back, hence any interrupt coming within that 3 instruction window causing TIF_NEED_RESCHED to be set won't be seen and scheduling won't happen as it should. Nothing currently prevents gcc from performing that reordering. There is already a barrier() before the decrement of the preemption count, but another one is needed between this and the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag test for proper code ordering.

*	[PATCH] m68k: thread_info header cleanup	Al Viro	2005-11-13	1	-0/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	a) in smp_lock.h #include of sched.h and spinlock.h moved under #ifdef CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL. b) interrupt.h now explicitly pulls sched.h (not via smp_lock.h from hardirq.h as it used to) c) in three more places we need changes to compensate for (a) - one place in arch/sparc needs string.h now, hardirq.h needs forward declaration of task_struct and preempt.h needs direct include of thread_info.h. d) thread_info-related helpers in sched.h and thread_info.h put under ifndef __HAVE_THREAD_FUNCTIONS. Obviously safe.

*	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-16	1	-0/+62
	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!
