2.6.26-rc8-mm1

[Andrew Morton]

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.26-rc8/2.6.26-rc8-mm1/

- Seems to work on my x86 test boxes.  It does emit a
  sleeping-while-atomic warning during exit from an application which
  holds mlocks.  Known problem.

- It's dead as a doornail on the powerpc Mac g5.  I'll bisect it later.


Boilerplate:

- See the `hot-fixes' directory for any important updates to this patchset.

- To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example)

  git-fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git tag v2.6.16-rc2-mm1
  git-checkout -b local-v2.6.16-rc2-mm1 v2.6.16-rc2-mm1

- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the
  mm-commits mailing list.

        echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org

- If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch caused it, it is
  most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
  introduced the bug.  Instructions for this process are at

        http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt

  But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
  reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
  identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.

- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
  list on any email.

- When reporting bugs in this kernel via email, please also rewrite the
  email Subject: in some manner to reflect the nature of the bug.  Some
  developers filter by Subject: when looking for messages to read.

- Occasional snapshots of the -mm lineup are uploaded to
  ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/mm/ and are announced on
  the mm-commits list.  These probably are at least compilable.

- More-than-daily -mm snapshots may be found at
  http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/.  These are almost certainly not
  compileable.

[BUILD-FAILURE] 2.6.26-rc8-mm1 - build failure at drivers/char/hvc_rtas.c

[Kamalesh Babulal]

Hi Andrew,

2.6.26-rc8-mm1 kernel build fail on the powerpc, 

In file included from drivers/char/hvc_rtas.c:39:
drivers/char/hvc_console.h:59: error: field ‘kref’ has incomplete type
make[2]: *** [drivers/char/hvc_rtas.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/char] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2

this was already fixed by rusty (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/6/27/21).

[BUILD-FAILURE] 2.6.26-rc8-mm1 - x86 - __ptep_modify_prot_start() missing

[Kamalesh Babulal]

Hi Andrew,

2.6.26-rc8-mm1 kernel build fails on the x86

  CC      arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.o
arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.c:383: error: ‘__ptep_modify_prot_start’ undeclared here (not in a function)
make[1]: *** [arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/x86/kernel] Error 2

linux-next patches has the changes to the adds the function
__ptep_modify_prot_start as inline, the patch s390-build-fixes.patch
is coverting it into macro. Reverting the s390-build-fixes.patch
fixes the build failure.

grump.  Who did all this stuff?

I dunno.  I'll drop s390-build-fixes.patch, add some ccs and stomp off.

We can't turn them into macros because we're expecting to be able to 
take the address of __ptep_modify_prot_start/commit.  What type is not 
defined on s390 at that point?  Would simply adding an extra include to 
arch/s390/mm/hugetlbpage.c fix the problem?

In the worst case we could push __ptep_modify_proc_start/commit out of 
line somewhere appropriate, but that's a bit sad given how simple they are.

gcc idiocy - emitting non-ascii characters from a programming tool. 
Their survival rate through downstream handling is about 2%.  LANG=C
helps.

I think the s390 guys just fixed the original build error.

We need struct task_struct... I added an include <linux/sched.h> to
asm-s390/pgtable.h and it seems to fix the build problem.
I expected include dependency hell...

Not this one, but if it works I'm going to push that to git-s390.
Currently wading through the s390 build bugs in linux-next and trying to
fix them all :/
