FWIW, here's a list of potential 2.5.59 kernel bugs.  Some of these
might be causing real trouble. Many are probably benign.  A few may be
non-bugs that are just poor coding style although I've tried to weed
most of those out of this list.  

The fs/super.c bug is probably the most serious of the bunch as it appears
to completely disable the sync_filesystems() function.

Some fairly sickening stuff ... I'll log the following sections in bugzilla
If any brave volunteers for the others want to go ahead with the other
sections, and split the effort, would be much appreciated. Please mail
back to lkml that you're doing it ... and watch very carefully on newly
logged bugs for collisions ;-)

I assume you picked these up with `gcc -W'?

gcc -W generates ten megabytes of warnings, with a few gems.  We really need
finer-grained control of gcc warnings so that the good ones can be turned on.
gcc warnings are being redone at present and this might yet happen...

That's fixed in 2.5.59++

That too.  davem said "OMG that's scary :)"

> fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c:235		if (!super_block | (super_block->s_flags & MS_ACTIVE)) {

I'll fix that up.

As for the rest well gee.  Perhaps we should stick #error's in there to
flush out some people who can test the fixes.

I'm happy to do whatever legwork is needed ... if you already have a 
seperate patch you could send my way for this stuff, would make it 
easier, if not, I'll go digging through your next release ... 

Thanks,

M.

A 'spare time' project of mine is to get -W builds at least 'mostly clean'
The low hanging fruit got fixed up a while back. Most of the remainder
is signed comparison warnings.  gcc-3.4 has promoted this warning to
show up in regular builds too, so at some point, either a lot of effort
is going to have to be undertaken to fix those, or we use -Wno-signed-compare
during builds.

Just for giggles I did a quick audit of the results of a make
allyesconfig a few weekends ago. The number of drivers we still have
that need updating to new APIs (from tqueue conversions to cli/sti etc)
is quite disturbing. There's a lot of groundwork to be done there
hopefully before we get to a 2.6test phase, or we're going to be
obsoleting boatloads of drivers.

I meant to clean up the output and feed it all into bugzilla.
I'll get around to it sometime..

I did a 'make allyesconfig' build about 10 days ago.  I kept a list of
modules that I had to disable due to syntax errors and another list of
linker errors.  Here's that list, for 2.5.59:

Once the next -ac appears those should all drop into 2.5 if someone

Style bug, but functionality is intended as written.  I'll probably be
lazy with this one; OSS drivers should be converted to ALSA at some
point in the future, so I don't consider this a high priority thing
to fix at present.

Hello!

Also similar stuff in IDE code in 2.4.21-pre4 from bk tree:

drivers/ide/ide-taskfile.c:253		if (drive->using_dma && !(hwif->ide_dma_read(drive)));

At least looking at another similar code that is ifdefed out, it seems below patch is correct.
(and even if it's not, still that code should be changed not to confuse people ;) )

Also I took a look at drivers/ide/ide-taskfile.c in 2.5 hoping I can see what should
be in fact done and got even more confused ;)
Sounds like in 2.5 there should be "return ide_started" at the end, not stopped,
because otherwise when drive->using_dma is set, we always return ide_stopped for
WIN_WRITEDMA.*, WIN_IDENTIFY_DMA and WIN_READDMA, WIN_READDMA_ONCE, WIN_READDMA_EXT
taskfile->command and default case is the same (we check stuff, and then regardless
or the result of the check we always return ide_stopped).
Which looks somehow strange (and different from similar code in 2.4).
Can please somebody take a look at it?

Bye,
    Oleg

SOUND_SB is fixed as of 2.5.62 or so. Work is being done on
SOUND_AWE32_SYNTH but the structure of the driver doesn't fit the new
PnP API and is going to require quite a bit of rewrite. Not sure how
many people still use these old ISA sound cards... I only had a
handful of volunteers this time around to help test the soundblaster
fixes. During 2.3 there was significantly more interest for this once
wildly popular sound card. Other drivers for cards like the PAS16 that
weren't popular to begin with (and are 10+ years old) may have trouble
finding someone willing to update it.
