I would guess for that much inline code it will be even a win to not
inline because it will save icache.

A lot of these patches go through major APIs and seemingly-randomly prepare
to unexport things based on whether they are presently used within modules.

So, for example, drivers/base/attribute_container.c gets a whole pile of
exports scheduled for removal, regardless of whether the resulting module
API makes *sense*.  Ditto scsi core.  And lib/*.

For example this:

  EXPORT_SYMBOL(generic_getxattr);
 -EXPORT_SYMBOL(generic_listxattr);
 +EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL(generic_listxattr); /* removal in 2.6.19 */
  EXPORT_SYMBOL(generic_setxattr);
  EXPORT_SYMBOL(generic_removexattr);

just seems random to me, and it's setting us up for later churn.

So hum.  Don't you think it'd be better to look at each API as a whole,
make decisions about what parts of it _should_ be offered to modules,
rather then looking empirically at which parts presently _need_ to be
exported?

Shouldn't these be under asm-i386 , or are they used by other

Looks sane to me.  I've always wanted to encode the nid in the section.
But, never had a compelling reason to do so.

With this code in place, we could optimize the pfn_to_nid() routines to
now obtain the nid from the section (rather than page struct).  However,
I'm not sure this is worth the effort.

As Ian said, it is for setting the value when xend starts which is what
the test is about.  However, the test should bring dom0 vcpus to the
max and then test enforcement down to 1 rather than assuming that dom0's
current value can be reduced.  Or, bail on the test if the current value
of dom0's online vcpus isn't > 2.

I wasn't concerned with inline vs non-inline - that's your choice.
Just the inherent foulness of multi-line macros ;-)

Except when the value is zero. If a previous session lowered the number of VCPUs, then that value will get restored
(from xenstored) rather than using all VCPUs as dom0_vcpus=0 would suggest.

Summary:                    alsa 1.0.9rc4 + intel 82801FB/.../ = No sound (Benq

Description: 
My notebook is Benq 52-101, update FC3 to kernel 2.6.11-1.14_FC3

alsamixer report: Card=intel ICH6, chip=Conexant id 3 (Question, Conexant
just support modem's AC-97 or else provide whole sound ? )

alsaconf: can find "Intel Corp 82801FB/.../ ICH6 family AC'97 Audio", and
will contine to "Have a lot fun".

I have ever, update linux kernel from 2.6.9 to 2.6.11(yum update, no
recompiling), and alsa driver from 0.9.0/1.0.8/1.0.9rc3/4.

Recomipling ALsa driver/lib/oss/tools/util.., with drive, ever try 
----- ./configure --with-cards=azx (error: no this card)
----- ./configure ; make; make install (no error report), not run
./snddevices

No sound ! So much days, so much test..... (if i915GM chipset + Conexant
chip...(see below lspci), will be powered by alsa-1.0.9rc4 ? --- if still
not, I will just wait for new alsa-driver.)

thanks

Sorry, I don't know what to tell you.  When you buy a laptop with the
intent of running linux on it it's important to check with other users
that the hardware is supported and the vendor not hostile to Linux.

Yes, I agree. Probably dual-boot is the solution and I will wait until the
development of the driver becomes reality. I would help but currently I do
not have enough programming skills.

Then perhaps I simply read too much into your mail, although I suspect it 
doesn't matter too much for the discussion at hand.

I'm assuming when you say "cost" you are talking about the amount of time and 
effort needed to understand the implementation so that a certain level of 
assurance can be reached?  If that is the case, then yes, I believe there is a 
relatively higher cost involved with something like CIPSO due to it's very 
nature.  To some extent NetLabel may inherit some of this cost as a framework 
designed to handle more complex labeling mechanisms.

As for the cost itself, I can only speak in relative terms and only from a 
developer's point of view.  Based on your email address and your presentations I 
suspect you have quite a bit of background in this area; I encourage you to not 
assume to much from my answers here but to look at the patch itself.  Any 
comments you may have about how to increase the ease at which higher levels of 
assurance might be achieved would be very welcome.

Hi all. 

I'm getting kernel BUG error when accessing a set of files on my FS. 

Here is the kernel output.

after the error all disk acces is dead .. and machine has to be reset. 

I'm busy upgrading to latest kernel to see if this solves the problem .. 
will also get latest version of reiserfsck and scan drive just in case.

Components that are all the first partition.

Are you using the whole disk, or the first partition?

It appears that to some extent, you are using both.

Perhaps some confusion on that point between your boot scripts and your
manual run explains things?

Summary:                    alsa 1.0.9rc4 + intel 82801FB/.../ = No sound (Benq
52-101)
Description: 
My notebook is Benq 52-101, update FC3 to kernel 2.6.11-1.14_FC3

alsamixer report: Card=intel ICH6, chip=Conexant id 3 (Question, Conexant
just support modem's AC-97 or else provide whole sound ? )

alsaconf: can find "Intel Corp 82801FB/.../ ICH6 family AC'97 Audio", and
will contine to "Have a lot fun".

I have ever, update linux kernel from 2.6.9 to 2.6.11(yum update, no
recompiling), and alsa driver from 0.9.0/1.0.8/1.0.9rc3/4.

Recomipling ALsa driver/lib/oss/tools/util.., with drive, ever try 
----- ./configure --with-cards=azx (error: no this card)
----- ./configure ; make; make install (no error report), not run
./snddevices

No sound ! So much days, so much test..... (if i915GM chipset + Conexant
chip...(see below lspci), will be powered by alsa-1.0.9rc4 ? --- if still
not, I will just wait for new alsa-driver.)

thanks

But probably no one will do this because it seems that this problem only
occurs on this notebook and there aren't so many benq s53 linux users ;/.
This is really disappointing as I wanted to use this machine on gentoo.

Sorry, I don't know what to tell you.  When you buy a laptop with the
intent of running linux on it it's important to check with other users
that the hardware is supported and the vendor not hostile to Linux.

We discovered this when running the xm-test suite. One of the tests
(01_enforce_dom0_cpus) changes the number of cpus by editing the
xend-config.sxp file and restarting xend. Should this test be updated to
use the method Ian suggested, to vary the number of cpus, rather than
restarting xend?

Is it worth keeping dom0-cpus then?

I don't think I saw a real explanation for that "below".  You implied
that "standby" was mostly meaningful for embedded hardware; not so.

If the state is there and used, users will be aware of the distinction
between the two suspend states ("standby" and "suspend to RAM").  One
is quick to enter/exit, the other isn't.

Of course what I _would_ like to see is Linux distros that autosuspend,
entering "standby" after they're idle for a while and then, if they're
not woken up quickly enough, entering "suspend-to-RAM".  No point in
having laptops burn all that energy all the time, after all ... or
automagically inflicting long resume-from-STR latencies on them.

Admittedly we do have issues getting either of those states to work
lately in Linux, but at least "standby" should be trivial given even
a small fraction of the effort that's gone into swsusp/"hibernate".

Well "not_longer_yadda_yadda()" would be a bizarre model.  The user-visible
issue is the latency to suspend or resume ... where "standby" is quick, and
"suspend-to-RAM" is relatively slow.  Where "quick" is on the order of time
for users to finish switching their mental context, while "slow" is on the
order of doing that _plus_ doing something else to fill the wait time.  How
long the system stays in a given suspend state is immaterial to any issue
beyond how much power is saved.  (Which is only indirectly user visible,
e.g. stretching battery life out one more hour vs eight more.)

The "suspend" button could be more menu-like, and users could choose to
override whatever their default "suspend depth" is ... and set the default
to match their impatience (vs power savings).

Not necessarily. I would like to present all matches of uid and let them

I even updated the audit parsing specs to include all keywords:

Does ouid and ogid not fit? I'd like us to define what we need in the parser 
API and then use it in the audit messages. Ancilliary words like new, old, 
last, first should not be tied with an underscore. If you find any, let me 
know.

It seems like the underscore would actually make things easier for the
user.  If they want just the 'uid' field, they search on 'uid'.  If
they want all the possible variations on uid, they could use a regular
expression.

The thing is that the old network controls will be going away at some 
point reasonably soon in the upstream kernel, and it seems wrong to add 
more than the minimally required infrastructure to support it.  Perhaps 
legacy distros which update their kernels but not their policy tools to 
match should patch this into the kernel themselves.  I don't think it 
belongs upstream.  The compat networking is for transition purposes only, 
and if the distro isn't going to transition, it's diverging from mainline 
and needs to carry that burden itself, not expect the mainline kernel to 
do so.

Description: 
My notebook is Benq 52-101, update FC3 to kernel 2.6.11-1.14_FC3

alsamixer report: Card=intel ICH6, chip=Conexant id 3 (Question, Conexant
just support modem's AC-97 or else provide whole sound ? )

alsaconf: can find "Intel Corp 82801FB/.../ ICH6 family AC'97 Audio", and
will contine to "Have a lot fun".

I have ever, update linux kernel from 2.6.9 to 2.6.11(yum update, no
recompiling), and alsa driver from 0.9.0/1.0.8/1.0.9rc3/4.

Recomipling ALsa driver/lib/oss/tools/util.., with drive, ever try 
----- ./configure --with-cards=azx (error: no this card)
----- ./configure ; make; make install (no error report), not run
./snddevices

No sound ! So much days, so much test..... (if i915GM chipset + Conexant
chip...(see below lspci), will be powered by alsa-1.0.9rc4 ? --- if still
not, I will just wait for new alsa-driver.)

Yes exactly, if Benq won't provide the hardware information needed to get
it working someone must reverse engineer the Windows drivers.

But probably no one will do this because it seems that this problem only
occurs on this notebook and there aren't so many benq s53 linux users ;/.
This is really disappointing as I wanted to use this machine on gentoo.

Yes, except it's not trivially done because if __cli was an inline
function, you need to have everything that is used in the declaration
defined when the function is declared as opposed to when the #define
gets used.  I'll give it another try, but it very quickly becomes
#include hell.

Anybody want to comment on the performance impact of making
local_irq_* non-inline functions?

Setting dom0-cpus to "" does not work either.

Try (dom0-cpus "").  I believe that's what I was using before I
dedicated one to dom0.  The comment should probably be updated, though.
