Hi,
last weekend I upgraded my toolchain and kernel-buildsystem and was investigating the last days a known issue between systemd and linux-next (which could be finally solved).
From Daniel Vetter there exist 3 patchsets [1,2,3] (see below P.S. and
attached setup.log), which I partly cherry-picked [1] or refreshed against linux-next (next-20101217). They worked also with yesterdays next-20101221. I have attached a follow-up/fix-up patch for one of Daniel's patchsets. (See below "danvet-drm-for-sedat-dilek-v2/0006-drm-nouveau-don-t-munge-in-drm_mm-internals-follow-u.patch") All 3 patchsets tested with radeon RV250.
Also, I am highly interested in the backlight-type patches [4] (see below P.S. and attached setup.log). I have also refreshed them against linux-next (apply against next-20101221), but tested with radeon-only. These patches has still not entered platform-driver-x86/for-next.
I would like to see all 4 patchsets in linux-next (namely 2.6.38). (I am using these patchsets for several weeks, I regularly check with openarena and in a rough daily-work. YES, I am using the kernels I built.).
What shall I do to help? Where to send the refreshed patches? Some patches from Daniel are complained by scripts/checkpatch.pl (IIRC 80 lines wrapping, etc.). Approx before 14 days Dave OKed Daniels patchsets on an IRC conversation.
Kind Regards, - Sedat -
