Message-Id: <1284493213-7263-1-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de> Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 21:40:04 +0200 From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 00/18] Make the big kernel lock optional This is a set of simple patches to remove the big kernel lock in some remaining areas and introduce a Kconfig option which I'd like to have included in linux-next and get included in the 2.6.37 merge window. I have a total of five topic branches, which together remove the BKL from all code except those modules which get marked as 'depends on BKL' in the final patch of this series. It's fine if maintainers want to add some of these patches to their own queue, as long as they all make it into linux-next. Stephen, please add git+ssh://master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/bkl.git config Arnd Bergmann (17): hpet: kill BKL, add compat_ioctl proc/pci: kill BKL s390/block: kill the big kernel lock isapnp: BKL removal alpha: kill big kernel lock cris: autoconvert trivial BKL users m68k: remove big kernel lock parisc: remove big kernel lock sh: kill big kernel lock uml: kill big kernel lock tlclk: remove big kernel lock i4l: kill big kernel lock misdn: kill big kernel lock dvb/bt8xx: kill the big kernel lock dvb-core: kill the big kernel lock rtmutex-tester: make it build without BKL BKL: introduce CONFIG_BKL.
