Some notes:
1) I am only going to consider 1 or 2 liner simple, obvious, and
important bug fixes for 2.6.16, treat it like a patch submission
for -stable. Basically the same rules.
2) If you have anything you want seriously considered for net-2.6.17
you should submit it soon, very soon
Due to the thread's lock changes, we're at a new version now.

Hi,
I've split the pkgten's thread lock work into three patches:
[PKTGEN 1/3]: Convert thread lock to mutexes.
[PKTGEN 2/3]: Removes thread_{un,}lock() macros.
[PKTGEN 3/3]: Updates version.
Thanks.

As suggested by Arnaldo, this patch replaces the thread_lock()/thread_unlock()
by directly calls to mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock().
This change makes the code a bit more readable, and the direct calls are used
everywhere in the kernel.

Add DMA workaround for chips that do not support full 64-bit DMA

5714, 5715, and 5780 chips only support DMA addresses less than 40
bits. On 64-bit systems with IOMMU, set the dma_mask to 40-bit so
that pci_map_xxx() calls will map the DMA address below 40 bits if
necessary. On 64-bit s

Restore MSI functionality to sky2 driver, now we have proper interrupt
management.

This patch has several fixes for sky2 hangs based on IRQ
problems and oversize frames. It is very new, so really not
ready for 2.6.16. It works form me on Yukon EC and XL.

Redo the interupt handling of sky2 driver based on the IRQ mangement

Don't need to adjust interrupt mask in IRQ context, done only when

Hi David,
Here goes a patch for supporting TOIM3232 based serial IrDA dongles.
The code is based on the tekram dongle code.
It's been tested with a TOIM3232 based IRWave 320S dongle. It may work
for TOIM4232 dongles, although it's not been tested.
Cheers,
Samuel.

Yes, the serial cable is already connected, but not used.

Hi!
pktgen's thread semaphores are strict mutexes, convert them to the mutex
implementation.

Hi,
I just noticed that what you do is somewhat similar to DNAv4 [1][2].
Would not it be better to separate DHCP and movement detection to
separate modules? So others than DHCP could use the decision of
the movement detection too.
And by the way, there is also ongoing work on DNAv6 to detect
