Ok, very small/few changes in the last week, it seems everybody is off on
vacation. All the better.

The shortlog/diffstat tell the story: a few one-liners, another ipv6
deadlock fixed, some sysctl and /proc fixes.

Have fun,

Linus

It should be quite hard not to have an answer to your E-mail,
so here his mine...

I have remade the patch for Gujin kernel.kgz boot file, for 2.6.15
and 2.6.15-rc5-mm3 and uploaded it to:
http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gujin/linux-gujin-patch.tar.
gz
how to use this file simply documented in:
http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=382630&group_
id=15465

The main change from:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112859209607340&w=
4
is a bug (predecrement instead of postdecrement) on the array of IDE
interfaces found so there is no more any bogus "ide0=0x..." paramete
r
passed to the kernel command line.
Another modification is the documentation of PHYSICAL_START configurat
ion
parameter to load and execute the kernel at another physical address,
to change that parameter you need to enable
General setup ---> Configure standard kernel features (for small
systems)
and you have the address in:
Processor type and features ---> Physical address where the kernel
is
loaded
Gujin can load those files starting at any address, and you can check
in /proc/zoneinfo that "Node 0, zone DMA" is nearly completely free
when loaded and run at 16 Mb (i.e. 0x1000000) - but I know that some
configuration still have problem at this address - but do not know
why.
Other changes are the removal of most '//' comments and replacement
of some inline constants with '#define'.

If this patch would better go in -mm tree, then a cumulative patch
is included in the sourceforge linux-gujin-patch.tar.gz ; if you
think that this patch shall be around for a longer time, then I will
try to keep this sourceforge location up to date - and just send
a reminder times to times to the list.
I would enjoy to read any comment you may have on Gujin.

Have fun,
Etienne.
