Message-ID: <20091002012911.GA18542@kroah.com> Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2009 18:29:11 -0700 From: Greg KH <gregkh@...e.de> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, stable@...nel.org Cc: stable-review@...nel.org, torvalds@...ux-foundation.org, akpm@...ux-foundation.org, alan@...rguk.ukuu.org.uk Subject: [000/136] 2.6.31.2-stable review Note from the -stable maintainer on this release: This release is big. Yeah, really big. There are a number of areas that needed some rework in order to get things back to working order. Like the tty layer. Hopefully everyone can now use their usb to serial devices again without oopsing the kernel. Xen and KVM also have reasonably big fixes, as does the ath5k and iwlwifi drivers. One might say that the patches for the iwlwifi drivers are a bit "bigger" than normal -stable material, but the wifi maintainer wants them, so he can handle the fallout. XHCI (the USB 3.0 controller) also has a big update here, to get it into workable shape to coincide with the release of the USB 3.0 developer kit. Without it, it wouldn't be really useful. And there's a whole raft of other important fixes as well, not to make light of them. A huge system speedup for large boxes is also in here, for those who like running benchmarks. Please test this -rc1 release out. I've been beating on it here a lot, but there are still a lot of bits in .31 that feel a bit loose, as backed up by Rafael's bug list. Hopefully this release smooths it out. Now back to the regular -stable review announcement: This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 2.6.31.2 release. There are 136 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please let us know. If anyone is a maintainer of the proper subsystem, and wants to add a Signed-off-by: line to the patch, please respond with it. These patches are sent out with a number of different people on the Cc: line. If you wish to be a reviewer, please email stable@...nel.org to add your name to the list. If you want to be off the reviewer list, also email us. Responses should be made by Saturday, October 3, 2009 23:00:00 UTC. Anything received after that time might be too late. The whole patch series can be found in one patch at: kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/stable-review/patch-2.6.31.2-rc1.gz and the diffstat can be found below. thanks, greg k-h --------------- MAINTAINERS | 6 + Makefile | 2 +- arch/alpha/kernel/core_marvel.c | 2 +- arch/alpha/kernel/core_titan.c | 2 +- arch/alpha/kernel/pci_impl.h | 2 +- arch/alpha/kernel/pci_iommu.c | 4 +- arch/arm/mach-pxa/sharpsl_pm.c | 4 +- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h | 2 +- arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c | 19 ++- arch/x86/include/asm/elf.h | 2 + arch/x86/include/asm/uv/uv_hub.h | 2 +- arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/powernow-k8.c | 15 +- arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c | 6 -
