2005-04-16[PATCH] vmscan: pageout(): remove unneeded testakpm@osdl.org
) We only call pageout() for dirty pages, so this test is redundant. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-16[PATCH] oom-killer disable for iscsi/lvm2/multipath userland critical sectionsAndrea Arcangeli
iscsi/lvm2/multipath needs guaranteed protection from the oom-killer, so make the magical value of -17 in /proc/<pid>/oom_adj defeat the oom-killer altogether. (akpm: we still need to document oom_adj and friends in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt!)

2005-04-16[PATCH] filemap_getpage can block when MAP_NONBLOCK specifiedJeff Moyer
We will return NULL from filemap_getpage when a page does not exist in the page cache and MAP_NONBLOCK is specified, here: page = find_get_page(mapping, pgoff); if (!page) { if (nonblock) return NULL; goto no_cached_page; } But we forget to do so when the page in the cache is not uptodate. The following could result in a blocking call: /* * Ok, found a page in the page cache, now we need to check * that it's up-to-date. */ if (!PageUptodate(page)) goto page_not_uptodate; Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

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!
