* [PATCH] x86_64: Don't reserve hotplug CPUs by defaultAndi Kleen2006-01-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Most users don't need it so no need to waste memory. This means an user has to specify the appropiate number of hotplug CPUs on the command line with additional_cpus=... or fix their BIOS to follow the convention in Documentation/x86-64/cpu-hotplug-spec Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* Tiny esthetic changes to Documentation/laptop-mode.txtJesper Juhl2006-01-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here's a tiny patch making a few esthetic changes to Documentation/laptop-mode.txt To me this patch makes sense, but feel free to disagree, I don't feel strongly about it at all. It changes a single URL to its strictly correct form (directories should end in /), and it makes the arguments to main in an included example program follow convention and be named argc and argv.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various PCI bus errors can be signaled by newer PCI controllers. Recovering from those errors requires an infrastructure to notify affected device drivers of the error, and a way of walking through a reset sequence. This patch adds documentation describing the current error recovery proposal. Signed-off-by: Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | idr gently pointed out today that not only is the sysfs rom file interface somewhat unintuitive (despite my efforts and initial implementation), but it's also undocumented! This patch to Documentation/filesystems/sysfs-pci.txt corrects the latter problem; the former is a userland ABI now though, so we're stuck with it for awhile at least.
