      [PATCH] changing CONFIG_LOCALVERSION rebuilds too much, for no good reason · 733482e4
      Olaf Hering authored 
      This patch removes almost all inclusions of linux/version.h.  The 3
#defines are unused in most of the touched files.

A few drivers use the simple KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) macro, which is
unfortunatly in linux/version.h.

There are also lots of #ifdef for long obsolete kernels, this was not
touched.  In a few places, the linux/version.h include was move to where
the LINUX_VERSION_CODE was used.

quilt vi `find * -type f -name "*.[ch]"|xargs grep -El '(UTS_RELEASE|LINUX_VERSION_CODE|KERNEL_VERSION|linux/version.h)'|grep -Ev '(/(boot|coda|drm)/|~$)'`

search pattern:
/UTS_RELEASE\|LINUX_VERSION_CODE\|KERNEL_VERSION\|linux\/\(utsname\|version\).h

      [PATCH] intelfb section fix · 346e399b
      Patrick McManus authored 
      On Nov 16 2004 a change to intelfbdrv.c was commited (as part of 0.9.2 it
looks like) that added __initdata to all of the module param variables that
seems to create the opportunity for an oops.

I've recently been chasing an OOPS
(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111552250920370&w=2) I
created by reading every file on the /sys file system and I've traced it
back to this code in the intelfbdrv.  Though I had root privs in my initial
problem report, it turns out they are un-necessary to generate the oops -
all you've got to do is "cat /sys/module/intelfb/parameters/mode" enough
times and eventually it will oops.

This is because sysfs automatically exports all module_param declarations
to the sysfs file system..  which means those variables can be dynamically
evaluated at any later time, which of course means marking them __initdata
is a bad idea ;)..  when they happen to be char *'s it is an especially bad
idea ;).

Applying the patch below clears up the OOPS for me.

      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!
