--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2007-667 2007-08-13 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 6 Name : kernel Version : 2.6.22.2 Release : 39.fc6 Summary : The Linux kernel (the core of the Linux operating system) Description : The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to kernel 2.6.22.2: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.22.2 Disable asynchronous SCSI device scanning: fixes failure to find root device on SCSI disk at boot time. Fix failure to find serial ports on some machines. Disable PCI MMCONFIG and MSI by default, can be overrideen with new options "pci=msi" and "pci=mmconf". Detect broken timers on some AMD dual-core machines: fixes hangs and failure to boot. Don't crash when a userspace driver requests too much memory. Update the CFS scheduler to more closely match upstream. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Fri Aug 10 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - 2.6.22.2 - don't use incremental patches for -stable - update CFS scheduler with upstream patches - serial: revert changes to port detection - update utrace - disable PCI MMCONFIG by default * Thu Aug 9 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - revert s390 changes * Thu Aug 9 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - hopefully add s390 back to the build (ugly hack, s390 overrides s390x, no -generic used) * Thu Aug 9 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - disable CONFIG_SCSI_SCAN_ASYNC * Thu Aug 9 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - disable PCI MSI by default * Wed Aug 8 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - add xt_statistic.h to header list for iptables - detect broken lapic timer on some dual-core AMD systems - don't BUG on too-large memory allocation * Wed Aug 1 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - fix crash in xfrm4 - restore md driver START_ARRAY ioctl * Mon Jul 30 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - sync the CFS scheduler timekeeping changes with upstream - fix DMI strings in HP notebook quirk for ALI controller - revert upstream "genirq: do not mask interrupts by default" * Wed Jul 25 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - kernel requires newer version of cpuspeed - pata_hpt37x: Fix 2.6.22 clock PLL regression (#249254) - atl1: possibly fix DMA bugs (#249511) * Mon Jul 23 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - set CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ only in -debug kernels * Mon Jul 23 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - set CONFIG_USB_DEVICE_CLASS (should fix #249211) * Mon Jul 23 2007 Jarod Wilson <jwilson@xxxxxxxxxx> - Re-enable aes-i586 and twofish-i586 for i686 kernels (#249158) * Fri Jul 20 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - SDHCI: clear the error interrupt bit - ftdi_sio: fix oops * Fri Jul 20 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - utrace update - CFS scheduler update * Thu Jul 19 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - restore the libata COMBINED_MODE hacks - set CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PROC_COMPAT - restore the old firewire stack - new utrace backport * Tue Jul 17 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - disable the nohz and highres kernel options by default -- enable with 'nohz=yes highres=yes' * Tue Jul 17 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - gfs2: update to the latest - sched: fix show_task()/show_tasks() output - sched: fix newly idle load balance in case of SMT - sched: fix the all pinned logic in load_balance_newidle() - fix leaks of struct seq_operations - fix leaks of ref to user struct - pata_atiixp: add SB700 PCI ID - ata_piix: fix pio/mwdma programming - sdhci: add ene controller id - sdhci: Fix "Unexpected interrupt" handling * Mon Jul 16 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - bluetooth: hangup tty before releasing rfcomm - driver core: get driver properly during release - net scheduler: fix deadlock - input: rfkill driver screws up the CPU flags - acpi-cpufreq: make register write work properly again * Mon Jul 16 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - add proper caching of last_ctl to the 'unbreak SMART' fix * Mon Jul 16 2007 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx> - Unbreak SMART on libata. * Mon Jul 16 2007 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx> - Disable warnings that trigger due to disabled USB suspend. * Thu Jul 12 2007 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx> - Some systems have a HPET which is not incrementing, which leads to a complete hang.
