Version reports as 2.6.40 for compatibility with older userspace. -4 re-adds utrace, which was inadvertantly dropped in the -3 update. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Jul 29 2011 Dave Jones <[email protected]> 2.6.40-4 - Re-add utrace, which got accidentally dropped during the rebase. * Thu Jul 28 2011 Dave Jones <[email protected]> 2.6.40-3 - Fix module-init-tools conflict: * Thu Jul 28 2011 Dave Jones <[email protected]> 2.6.40-2 - fix crash in scsi_dispatch_cmd() * Thu Jul 28 2011 Dave Jones <[email protected]> 2.6.40-1 - Turn off debugging options. (make release) * Tue Jul 26 2011 Dave Jones <[email protected]> 2.6.40-0 - Rebase to final 3.0 (munge to 2.6.40-0) * Thu Jun 30 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 2.6.40-0.rc5.git0.1 - More than meets the eye, it's Linux 3.0-rc5 in disguise. * Mon Jun 27 2011 Dave Jones <[email protected]> - Disable CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_DISABLE_TESTS, as this also disables FIPS (rhbz 716942) * Thu Jun 23 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc4.git3.1 - Linux 3.0-rc4-git3 - Drop linux-3.0-fix-uts-release.patch, and instead just perl the Makefile - linux-2.6-silence-noise.patch: fix context - iwlagn-fix-dma-direction.patch: fix DMAR errors (for me at least) * Wed Jun 22 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc4.git0.2 - Re-enable debuginfo generation. Thanks to Richard Jones for noticing... no wonder builds had been so quick lately. * Tue Jun 21 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc4.git0.1 - Linux 3.0-rc4 (getting closer...) * Fri Jun 17 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc3.git6.1 - Update to 3.0-rc3-git6 * Fri Jun 17 2011 Dave Jones <[email protected]> - drop qcserial 'compile fix' that was just duplicating an include. - drop struct sizeof debug patch. (no real value. not upstreamable) - drop linux-2.6-debug-always-inline-kzalloc.patch. Can't recall why this was added. Can easily re-add if deemed necessary. * Fri Jun 17 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> - linux-2.6-defaults-pci_no_msi.patch: drop, haven't toggled the default in many moons. - linux-2.6-defaults-pci_use_crs.patch: ditto. - linux-2.6-selinux-mprotect-checks.patch: upstream a while ago. - drm-i915-gen4-has-non-power-of-two-strides.patch: drop buggy bugfix - drop some more unapplied crud. - We haven't applied firewire patches in a dogs age. * Fri Jun 17 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc3.git5.1 - Try updating to a git snapshot for the first time in 3.0-rc, update to 3.0-rc3-git5 - Fix a subtle bug I introduced in 3.0-rc1, "patch-3." is 9 letters, not 10. * Thu Jun 16 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> - Disable mm patches which had been submitted against 2.6.39, as Rik reports they seem to aggravate a VM_BUG_ON. More investigation is necessary. * Wed Jun 15 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> - Conflict with pre-3.2.1-5 versions of mdadm. (#710646) * Wed Jun 15 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> - Build in aesni-intel on i686 for symmetry with 64-bit. * Tue Jun 14 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc3.git0.3 - Fix libdm conflict (whose bright idea was it to give subpackages differing version numbers?) * Tue Jun 14 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> - Update to 3.0-rc3, add another conflicts to deal with 2 digit versions (libdm.) - Simplify linux-3.0-fix-uts-release.patch now that SUBLEVEL is optional. - revert-ftrace-remove-unnecessary-disabling-of-irqs.patch: drop upstreamed patch. - drm-intel-eeebox-eb1007-quirk.patch: ditto. - ath5k-disable-fast-channel-switching-by-default.patch: ditto. * Thu Jun 9 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> - ath5k-disable-fast-channel-switching-by-default.patch (rhbz#709122) (korgbz#34992) [a99168ee in wireless-next] * Thu Jun 9 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc2.git0.2 - rhbz#710921: revert-ftrace-remove-unnecessary-disabling-of-irqs.patch * Wed Jun 8 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc2.git0.1 - Update to 3.0-rc2, rebase utsname fix. - Build IPv6 into the kernel for a variety of reasons (http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/kernel/2011-June/003105.html) * Mon Jun 6 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc1.git0.3 - Conflict with module-init-tools older than 3.13 to ensure the 3.0 transition is handled correctly. * Wed Jun 1 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc1.git0.2 - Fix utsname for 3.0-rc1 * Mon May 30 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> 3.0-0.rc1.git0.1 - Linux 3.0-rc1 (won't build until module-init-tools gets an update.) * Mon May 30 2011 Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> - Trimmed changelog, see fedpkg git for earlier history. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #708868 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000036c: TAINTED Warning Issued https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=708868 [ 2 ] Bug #712534 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000022: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712534 [ 3 ] Bug #712823 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at arch/x86/mm/fault.c:1087: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712823 [ 4 ] Bug #712532 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at arch/x86/mm/fault.c:1087: TAINTED Warning Issued https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712532 [ 5 ] Bug #712527 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rwsem.c:21: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712527 [ 6 ] Bug #714333 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at arch/x86/mm/fault.c:1087: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714333 [ 7 ] Bug #714847 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rwsem.c:21: TAINTED Warning Issued https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714847 [ 8 ] Bug #717501 - [abrt] kernel: kernel BUG at fs/bio.c:159!: TAINTED -------D https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=717501 [ 9 ] Bug #714165 - yet another cdrom_release oops https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714165 [ 10 ] Bug #712528 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ecf5469c: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712528 [ 11 ] Bug #717621 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000070: TAINTED -------D https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=717621 [ 12 ] Bug #714850 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff8800a99c9d80: TAINTED Warning Issued https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714850 [ 13 ] Bug #712531 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rwsem.c:21: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=712531 [ 14 ] Bug #714332 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000070: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=714332 [ 15 ] Bug #710551 - [abrt] kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000001e: TAINTED Die https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710551 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
