Hi,
when using the 2.6.23-rc5-git1 kernel and trying to change a network
device name, I have the following error:

That comes from drivers/base/core.c : 1261
I know anything about sysfs, so no much help to give... :(

Hi,
Maybe it is a nice enhancement for make menuconfig to more explicitly
give a pop-up or so when someone selects for example a sata controller
while no 'scsi-disk' support was selected?

To implement the multicast list callback in mac80211 we need to
do partial list iteration. Since I want to convert the interface
list to an RCU list, I need a new list walking primitive:

The shrinking of a virtual memory area that is mmap(2)'d to a memory
special file (device drivers/char/mspec.c) can cause a panic.
If the mapped size of the vma (vm_area_struct) is very large, mspec allocates
a large vma_data structure with vmalloc(). But such a vma can be shrunk by
an munmap(2).

The driver implements DMA engine API for Freescale MPC85xx DMA
controller, which could be used for MEM<-->MEM, IO_ADDR<-->MEM
and IO_ADDR<-->IO_ADDR data transfer.
The driver supports the Basic mode of Freescale MPC85xx DMA controller.
The MPC85xx processors supported include MPC8540/60, MPC8555, M

Like USB peripheral controllers. Only one external "B" type
connector is allowed.

That's the first line of encode_lookup:
static int encode_lookup(struct xdr_stream *xdr, const struct qstr
*name)
{
int len = nam
Update last_rx in registered device struct instead of
in the dummy device.

Hi,
We have removed CTHON04 Test-cases from LTP (for want of GPLv2 License
Agreement):
http://ltp.cvs.sourceforge.net/ltp/ltp/testcases/network/nfs/cthon04/
However you can find new location from:

Hi,
recently we discovered writing to a nfs-exported lustre filesystem is rather
slow (20-40 MB/s writing, but over 200 MB/s reading).
As I already explained on the nfs mailing list, this happens
