Heh.  When I was sussing 2.6.12 stuff today, I really thought it was me 
buggering up something.  So after reading a lot, I wondered (neurotically)  
if I was doing anything wrong (after all this time, it's likely).

So 'make randconfig' is the one to use!  What one earth is that for?

the version number is a little bit confused here: if I want to upgrade
from for example 2.6.11.5 to 2.6.12, which patch should I get?

anybody knows if Matt will upgrade his ketchup for the new versioning
system soon? otherwise, I might spend some time to hack it up.

you reverse the 2.6.11 -> 2.6.11.5 patch to get back to a vinilla 2.6.11
then you apply the 2.6.11->2.6.12 patch.

Hrm, I expected ketchup to be able to handle that already.
Does it not?

So you can do the above by hand or you can use scripts/patch-kernel
in the kernel tree (but not in the 2.6.11 tree, just in the
2.6.12 tree or get it from here:
http://www.xenotime.net/linux/scripts/patch-kernel )
to do the reverse-patch and apply-patch.
However, patch-kernel won't download the 2.6.11.12 patch for you.

ah yes. because 2.6.12 can be get by patching from 2.6.11, so ketchup
works well, as always.

but ketchup doesnt work with 2.6.x.y yet.

it's working since the 0.9 release (from almost 1 year ago)

Ketchup should already do 2.6.11.5 to 2.6.12 just fine.

What's currently not handled are -git snapshots.

Mathematics is the supreme nostalgia of our time.

Linux 2.6.12

[Linus Torvalds]

As some people may have noticed already, 2.6.12 is out there now.

The full ChangeLog ended up missing, because I only have the history from
2.6.12-rc2 in my git archives, but if you want to, you can puzzle it
together by taking the 2.6.12 changelog and merging it with the -rc1 and 
-rc2 logs in the testing directory. The file that says "ChangeLog-2.6.12" 
only contains the stuff from -rc2 onward.

Included here in the email are the changes since -rc6, and as you can see
from the appended diffstat, most of the things are pretty small (ie it
looks like a long list, and then you look at the diffstat and realize that
most of the changes end up being just a line or two).

One of the least important changes is still worth pointing out: it was
discussed earlier on the kernel mailing list in another thread, but maybe
people didn't notice it: the sign-off procedure was clarified to make it
clear that the person signing off understands that the project - and thus
the patch and the sign-off itself, of course - is public and will be
archived.

This may sound silly and obvious - and it is - but it makes people more
comfortable about the fact that we obviously save identifying information
in the sign-off (that's the whole point), and in general people also
submit things like their own email addresses in CREDITS files etc, and so
nobody should be expecting any of that to be kept confidential.

I don't think anybody did, of course, but hey, this way it's explicit. So 
part of the new stuff is this patch:

	diff --git a/Documentation/SubmittingPatches b/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
	--- a/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
	+++ b/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
	@@ -271,7 +271,7 @@ patch, which certifies that you wrote it

	+
	 then you just add a line saying
	 
	        Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.org>

just so that people are aware of this.

Btw, in case anybody ends up wondering about what the actual patches are,
if you're a git user (or, more likely, not quite a user yet, but rather
wondering what you can do with git), you can start off with doing

	git-whatchanged -p v2.6.12-rc6..v2.6.12

and it will do exactly what you think it migth do - it shows every commit 
between -rc6 and the final 2.6.12 release as a patch ("-p") with the 
associated commit message.

tar xjvf linux-2.6.12.tar.bz2, using SuSE tar-1.13.25-325.3 on IA64,
reports

tar: pax_global_header: Unknown file type 'g', extracted as normal file

It does not seem to cause any problems.

Yes, git creates tar-archives that use the extended pax headers, and I 
think you need tar-1.14 to fully understand them. They should not hurt 
(apart from the warning) on older versions of tar.

The extended header just contains a hidden comment record that tells the
git commit ID that was used to generate the tar-tree.

Because it's extracted as a regular file (instead of tar knowing that it's 
a comment header), you will now have a file called "pax_global_header" 
that has the contents

	52 comment=9ee1c939d1cb936b1f98e8d81aeffab57bae46ab

in it (where "9ee1c939d1cb936b1f98e8d81aeffab57bae46ab" is the git SHA1
name of the Linux-2.6.12 commit).

So it's not entirely "harmless" in that it causes a bogus file to be
created, but it's not like it's a huge problem either, and that bogus file
actually does contain real information (although it's not useful unless
you're a git user).

If Linus accepts the patch below, then yes :-)


Add pax_global_header to Documentation/dontdiff
Kernel tar-archives created by git contain an extended header with the git 
commit ID that was used to generate the tar-tree. If your tar is older 
than 1.14 then this extended header will be extracted as a regular file 
called pax_global_header. Patches should never be generated against this 
file, so it should be listed in dontdiff.

Actually, I won't.

As far as I know, the "pax_global_header" file doesn't get added to inside
the Linux directory, it gets added to the "top" directory, ie one 
directory up from the Linux directory. As such, this should all be 
unnecessary.

I just downloaded it, copied my 2.6.11.2 config over and did a make
oldconfig.  On USB Mon I got the following in the help.

-------------
If you say Y here, a component which captures the USB traffic
between peripheral-specific drivers and HC drivers will be built.
The USB_MON is similar in spirit and may be compatible with Dave
Harding's USBMon.

This is somewhat experimental at this time, but it should be safe,
as long as you aren't building this as a module and then removing it.

If unsure, say Y. Do not say M.

  USB Monitor (USB_MON) [M/n/?] (NEW)
--------------

I really like my options. :-)

OK, I have CONFIG_USB as a module, but I really thought that this was
pretty amusing.
