[PATCH 1/1] staging: hv: Fix missing functions for net_device_ops (submit again)
From: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz(a)microsoft.com> Fix missing functions for net_device_ops. Unlike in older kernels, ether_setup() no longer sets default functions. We need to put them into net_device_ops. For example, eth_change_mtu prevents setting MTU beyond 1500. This is necessary because we don't support jumbo f... 3 Aug 2010 14:45

[PATCH 4/5] samples: kprobe_example: Make it print something on MIPS.
This KProbes example is a little useless if it doesn't print anything. For MIPS print similar messages to those produced on x86 and PPC.

[PATCH] kernel: rounddown helper function
The roundup() helper function will round a given value up to a multiple of another given value. aka roundup(11, 7) would give 14 = 7 * 2. This new function does the opposite. It will round a given number down to the nearest multiple of the second number: rounddown(11, 7) would give 7. I need this in some futu... 3 Aug 2010 14:45

[GIT PULL] xen-netfront driver updates for 2.6.36
Hi Dave, Here's a git branch with some updates to the Xen netfront driver, which add a new "smartpoll" mode to the netfront backend protocol, which is basically equivalent to interrupt mitigation. They've been in linux-next for a week or so. Do you want to take this via the net tree, or are you OK with m... 3 Aug 2010 14:45
