2007-10-12	Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a struct	Kay Sievers
	This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations. Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the error handling.

2006-01-04	[PATCH] driver core: replace "hotplug" by "uevent"	Kay Sievers
	Leave the overloaded "hotplug" word to susbsystems which are handling real devices. The driver core does not "plug" anything, it just exports the state to userspace and generates events. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-09-09	[PATCH] PCI: move pci core to use add_hotplug_env_var()	Greg Kroah-Hartman
	This fixes a bug in the environment variables for all PCI device hotplug calls. Thanks to Kay Sievers for pointing out the problem. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-07-01	[PATCH] PCI: Remove newline from pci MODALIAS variable	Hannes Reinecke
	the pci core sends out a hotplug event variable MODALIAS with a trailing newline. This is inconsistent with all other event variables and breaks some hotplug tools. This patch removes the said newline. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-05-17	[PATCH] PCI Hotplug: remove pci_visit_dev	Scott Murray
	If my CPCI hotplug update patch is applied, then there are no longer any in tree users of the pci_visit_dev API, and it and its related code can be removed. Signed-off-by: Scott Murray <scottm@somanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds
	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!
