e) buslogic and cyber2000 are broken on sparc64
f) s3trio framebuffer is broken

be worth supporting (there are PCI cards of that sort), for now marked as
broken (no asm/serial.h, to start with).

[PATCH] asm-ppc/reg.h namespace pollution fixes
asm-ppc/reg.h defines pollutes namespace like there's no tomorrow;
among other things there are
LR
SR0...SR15
DEC
etc.
That breaks quite a few drivers that should otherwise work on ppc. SR...
and LR were never used by ppc code; commented out in reg.h (note that
they are just aliases for SPRN_SR... and SPRN_LR). RPA commented out and
its instances in ppc code (all four of them) replaced with SPRN_RPA. Ditto
for DEC. The rest of the offenders (DAR and PVR) are left alone for now and
#undef'ed in drivers in question.
We probably want to rip all these guys out of reg.h and convert ppc users
to SPRN_... forms - file ends up included in alot of places and namespace
pollution like that is a Bad Thing(tm).

[PATCH] NX: allow architectures to select legacy mode dynamically
On some platforms, you'll want to support READ_IMPLIES_EXEC differently
depending on personality (e.g, native binary vs. x86 binary).
This supports that (and makes the code more readable while at it) by
replacing the old architecture-specific fixed LEGACY_BINARIES macro
define with a architecture-specific "elf_read_implies_exec_binary()"
helper function.
For now, x86 is the only user, and sets the "read implies exec" bit for
legacy apps. ia64 and x86-64 are likely to want to do their own thing.
Make "install_page()" able to handle truncated pages.
This makes it much easier on the callers, no need to
worry about races with vmtruncate() and friends, since
"install_page()" will just cleanly handle that case
and tell the caller about it.

Don't bother zeroing the allocated memory inside alloc_buf() in the

The recent changes to (6 Jul 04) pkt_cls.h are evil, you can't build a version

- API data structures change on kernel config options
- new fields should be added at the end of a structure to allow
binary compatibility.
