[PATCH] dm: remove SECTOR_FORMAT

2006-03-27T16:44:58+00:00

We don't know what type sector_t has. Sometimes it's unsigned long, sometimes it's unsigned long long. For example on ppc64 it's unsigned long with CONFIG_LBD=n and on x86_64 it's unsigned long long with CONFIG_LBD=n. The way to handle all of this is to always use unsigned long long and to always typecast the sector_t when printing it.

[PATCH] mempool: use mempool_create_slab_pool()

2006-03-26T16:57:00+00:00

Modify well over a dozen mempool users to call mempool_create_slab_pool() rather than calling mempool_create() with extra arguments, saving about 30 lines of code and increasing readability. Signed-off-by: Matthew Dobson Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] mempool: use common mempool page allocator

2006-03-26T16:56:59+00:00

Convert two mempool users that currently use their own mempool-backed page allocators to use the generic mempool page allocator. Also included are 2 trivial whitespace fixes. Signed-off-by: Matthew Dobson Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] Unlinline a bunch of other functions

2006-01-15T02:27:06+00:00

Remove the "inline" keyword from a bunch of big functions in the kernel with the goal of shrinking it by 30kb to 40kb Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Acked-by: Jeff Garzik Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] dm-crypt: zero key before freeing it

2006-01-06T16:34:01+00:00

Zap the memory before freeing it so we don't leave crypto information around in memory. Signed-off-by: Stefan Rompf Acked-by: Clemens Fruhwirth Acked-by: Alasdair G Kergon Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] Use sg_set_buf/sg_init_one where applicable

2005-10-30T00:19:43+00:00

This patch uses sg_set_buf/sg_init_one in some places where it was duplicated. Signed-off-by: David Hardeman Cc: James Bottomley Cc: Greg KH Cc: "David S. Miller" Cc: Jeff Garzik Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

[PATCH] gfp_t: remaining bits of drivers/*

[PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1

2005-10-08T22:00:57+00:00

- added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t; - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

[CRYPTO]: Use CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP where appropriate

2005-09-02T00:43:25+00:00

This patch goes through the current users of the crypto layer and sets CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP at crypto_alloc_tfm() where all crypto operations are performed in process context. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[PATCH] md: remove unneeded NULL checks before kfree

2005-06-22T02:07:48+00:00

This patch removes some unneeded checks of pointers being NULL before calling kfree() on them. kfree() handles NULL pointers just fine, checking first is pointless. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
