Comments from Stefan:
Distributors who still ship the old stack (ieee1394, ohci1394,
raw1394, sbp2, eth1394 and more) should now switch to the new one
(firewire-core, firewire-ohci, firewire-sbp2, firewire-net). In the
first iteration, those distributors might want to ship the old stack
also (but blacklisted) as a fallback for their users if unforeseen
problems with the newer replacement drivers are encountered.
The older FireWire stack contains several known problems which are
not going to be fixed; instead, those issues are addressed by the new
stack. An incomplete list of these issues is kept in bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10046
We have a guide on migration from the older to the newer stack:

crash_kexec gets called before kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_OOPS) if
panic_on_oops is set, so the kernel log buffer is not stored
for this case.
This patch adds a KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC dump type which gets called
when crash_kexec() is invoked. To avoid getting double dumps,
the old KMSG_DUMP_PANIC is moved below crash_kexec(). The
mtdoops driver is modified to handle KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC in the
same way as a panic.

Control of more than one AV/C device at once --- e.g. camcorders, tape
decks, audio devices, TV tuners --- failed or worked only unreliably,
depending on driver implementation. This affected kernelspace and
userspace drivers alike and was caused by firewire-core's inability to
accept multiple registrations of FCP listeners.
The fix allows multiple address handlers to be registered for the FCP
command and response registers. When a request for these registers is
received, all handlers are invoked, and the Firewire response is
generated by the core and not by any handler.
The cdev API does not change, i.e., userspace is still expected to send
a response for FCP requests; this response is silently ignored.

Add new commands for requesting the driver to remain awake
on a specified channel for the specified amount of time
(and another command to cancel such an operation). This
can be used to implement userspace-controlled off-channel
operations, like Public Action frame exchange on another
channel than the operation channel.
The off-channel operation should behave similarly to scan,
i.e. the local station (if associated) moves into power
save mode to request the AP to buffer frames for it and
then moves to the other channel to allow the off-channel
operation to be completed. The duration parameter can be
used to request enough time to receive a response from
the target station.

there are cases where a back path validation requires us

One such a case is transparent proxying where we pretend to be

Add rtnetlink init_rcvwnd to set the TCP initial receive window size
advertised by passive and active TCP connections.
The current Linux TCP implementation limits the advertised TCP initial
receive window to the one prescribed by slow start. For short lived
TCP connections used for transaction type of traffic (i.e. http
requests), bounding the advertised TCP initial receive window results
in increased latency to complete the transaction.
Support for setting initial congestion window is already supported
using rtnetlink init_cwnd, but the feature is useless without the
ability to set a larger TCP initial receive window.
The rtnetlink init_rcvwnd allows increasing the TCP initial receive
window, allowing TCP connection to advertise larger TCP receive window
than the ones bounded by slow start.

ext4, at least, would like to start pushing on writeback if it starts
to get close to ENOSPC when reserving worst-case blocks for delalloc

predictions into usually smaller actual usage, freeing up space
before we hit ENOSPC based on this speculation.
Thanks to Jens for the suggestion for the helper function,

I've made the helper return status on whether writeback was

Currently inode_reservation is managed by fs itself and this
reservation is transfered on dquot_transfer(). This means what
inode_reservation must always be in sync with
dquot->dq_dqb.dqb_rsvspace. Otherwise dquot_transfer() will result
in incorrect quota(WARN_ON in dquot_claim_reserved_space() will be
triggered)
This is not easy because of complex locking order issues
for example http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14739
The patch introduce quota reservation field for each fs-inode
(fs specific inode is used in order to prevent bloating generic
vfs inode). This reservation is managed by quota code internally
similar to i_blocks/i_bytes and may not be always in sync with
internal fs reservation.
Also perform some code rearrangement:
- Unify dquot_reserve_space() and dquot_reserve_space()
- Unify dquot_release_reserved_space() and dquot_free_space()
- Also this patch add missing warning update to release_rsv()
dquot_release_reserved_space() must call flush_warnings() as
dquot_free_space() does.

This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we
send barriers to the fs data disk. We could just throw in an extra
barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal
disk, but that's not always strictly necessary.
We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data
blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in
ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks
to disk. Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of
the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that
any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the
rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal.
