Mathieu Desnoyers 14d01ff534 ioctl: register LTTng ioctl
The LTTng 2.0 kernel tracer (stand-alone module package, available at
http://lttng.org) uses the 0xF6 ioctl range for tracer control and
transport operations.

Timur Tabi 6db7199407 drivers/virt: introduce Freescale hypervisor management driver
Add the drivers/virt directory, which houses drivers that support
virtualization environments, and add the Freescale hypervisor management
driver.

The Freescale hypervisor management driver provides several services to
drivers and applications related to the Freescale hypervisor:

1. An ioctl interface for querying and managing partitions

2. A file interface to reading incoming doorbells

3. An interrupt handler for shutting down the partition upon receiving the
   shutdown doorbell from a manager partition

4. A kernel interface for receiving callbacks when a managed partition
   shuts down.

John Calixto cb87ea28ed mmc: core: Add mmc CMD+ACMD passthrough ioctl
Allows appropriately-privileged applications to send CMD (normal) and ACMD
(application-specific; preceded with CMD55) commands to cards/devices on
the mmc bus.  This is primarily useful for enabling the security
functionality built in to every SD card.

It can also be used as a generic passthrough (e.g. to enable virtual
machines to control mmc bus devices directly).  However, this use case has
not been tested rigorously.  Generic passthrough testing was only conducted
for a few non-security opcodes to prove the feasibility of the passthrough.

Since any opcode can be sent using this passthrough, it is very possible to
render the card/device unusable.  Applications that use this ioctl must
have CAP_SYS_RAWIO.

Security commands tested on TI PCIxx12 (SDHCI), Sigma Designs SMP8652 SoC,
TI OMAP3621/OMAP3630 SoC, Samsung S5PC110 SoC, Qualcomm MSM7200A SoC.

smbfs has been scheduled for removal in 2.6.27, so
maybe we can now move it to drivers/staging on the
way out.

smbfs still uses the big kernel lock and nobody
is going to fix that, so we should be getting
rid of it soon.

This removes the 32 bit compat mount and ioctl
handling code, which is implemented in common fs
code, and moves all smbfs related files into
drivers/staging/smbfs.

Justin P. Mattock 0ea6e61122 Documentation: update broken web addresses.
Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

Rodolfo Giometti eae9d2ba0c LinuxPPS: core support
This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
"LinuxPPS".

PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
use it to adjust system clock time.

Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
synchronisation to UTC.

To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch.  It
provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
get the time signal.  The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
to these char devices.

Elias Oltmanns 64a8f00ff1 IDE: Report errors during drive reset back to user space
Make sure that each error condition during the execution of an
HDIO_DRIVE_RESET ioctl is actually reported to the calling process.
Also, unify the exit path of reset_pollfunc() when returning ide_stopped
since the need of ->port_ops->reset_poll() to be treated specially has
vanished (way back, it seems).

Matt LaPlante 84eb8d0608 Fix "can not" in Documentation and Kconfig
Randy brought it to my attention that in proper english "can not" should always
be written "cannot". I donot see any reason to argue, even if I mightnot
understand why this rule exists.  This patch fixes "can not" in several
Documentation files as well as three Kconfigs.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
