Any mmap changes requires the mmapsem.
sys_remap_file_pages() will call install_page() under down_read(mmap_sem).
It relies upon page_table_lock for pte atomicity.
This is not relevant since it only deals with file pages. ptes are only
installed
Do you have any objections to merging FUSE in mainline kernel?
It's been in -mm for the 2.6.11 cycle, and the same code was released
a month ago as FUSE-2.2. So it should have received a fair amount of
testing, with no problems found so far.
The one originally merged into -mm
And the reason it does _not_ work is that all the people we
want testing sure as _hell_ won't be testing -rc versions.
At least they still test real releases..
So instead of making sure rc is really release-candidate, we want to trick
people to test -pre as real release, soon people will

Hello, Bartlomiej.
This patch fixes ide_dma_intr() oops which occurs for TASKFILE ioctl

This patch converts the usage of struct of_match to struct of_device_id,

can be parsed by depmod(8) to generate a map file for module loading.
It breaks the power4 build all

Hi,
For an embedded developers perspective, Is there any other advantage of
using initramfs over initrd apart from RAMFS benefits over RAMDISK ?
The fact that both are cumulable is very handy. Basically, you put all
the common tools and

Hi Hugh,
How about map an unmap each pte?
I mean remove the pte++ and use pte_offset_map for each incremented
address and then pte_unmap. So each incremented address is an index to
get the next pte via pte_offset_map.
BR,
Mauricio Lin.

You don't want to do that for all architectures, as I said earlier.
eg. i386 can concurrently set the dirty bit with the MMU (which won't
honour the lock).
So you then need an atomic lock, atomic pte operations,

All of these arguments are circular. If people think that even/odd
