Hi,

I hope not. The driver we merged (amso1100) did it completely in FW,

over carefully

Hi,
I'm announcing an alternative firewire stack that I've been working on
the last few weeks. I'm aiming to implement feature parity with the
current firewire stack, but not necessarily interface compatibility.
For now, I have the low-level OHCI driver done, the mid-level
transaction logic done,
pagevec is never expected to be more than PAGEVEC_SIZE, I think a
unsigned char is enough to count them. This patch makes nr, cold
to be unsigned char and also adds an iterator index. With that,
the size can be even bumped up by 1 to 15.

Hi Linus,
This patch set comprises the bulk of my 2.6.20 features which need to be
pushed upstream. My description of the changes is below:
* Various ocfs2 cleanups, including a patchset by me intended to clean up
some of the internal ocfs2 journal api. Mostly this revolves around

I am asking why need to compile the following modules while I do not

libata uses SCSI to provide a lot of infrastructure that it would
otherwise have to recreate. Also, using SCSI meant that it
automatically worked in existing installers.
I have noticed that scsi_do_req has apparently been obsoleted in 2.6.18
and above. Is scst and target support for FC-AL going to
remain supported and/or merged at some point? If so, what is planned
for scst support for later kernels?

When the UML network driver generates random MACs for its devices, it was
possible for a number of UMLs to get the same MACs because the ethernet
initialization was done before the random pool was properly seeded.
This patch moves the initialization later so that it gets better randomness.
