If the new code is substantial, addition of subsystem-specific fault
injection might be appropriate.

22: Newly-added code has been compiled with `gcc -W'. This will generate
lots of noise, but is good for finding bugs like "warning: comparison
between signed and unsigned".

Who: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com>

---------------------------

What: ACPI hotkey driver (CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY)
When: 2.6.21
Why: hotkey.c was an attempt to consolidate multiple drivers that use
ACPI to implement hotkeys. However, hotkeys are not documented
in the ACPI specification, so the drivers used undocumented
vendor-specific hooks and turned out to be more different than
the same.

Further, the keys and the features supplied by each platform
are different, so there will always be a need for
platform-specific drivers.

So the new plan is to delete hotkey.c and instead, work on the
platform specific drivers to try to make them look the same
to the user when they supply the same features.

hotkey.c has always depended on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL

Who: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

---------------------------

What: /sys/firmware/acpi/namespace
When: 2.6.21
Why: The ACPI namespace is effectively the symbol list for
the BIOS. The device names are completely arbitrary
and have no place being exposed to user-space.

For those interested in the BIOS ACPI namespace,
the BIOS can be extracted and disassembled with acpidump
and iasl as documented in the pmtools package here:

=========

Our current recommendation is to use Inferno (http://www.vitanuova.com/inferno)
as the 9p server. You can start a 9p server under Inferno by issuing the
following command:
; styxlisten -A tcp!*!564 export '#U*'

The -A specifies an unauthenticated export. The 564 is the port # (you may
have to choose a higher port number if running as a normal user). The '#U*'
specifies exporting the root of the Linux name space. You may specify a
subset of the namespace by extending the path: '#U*'/tmp would just export
/tmp. For more information, see the Inferno manual pages covering styxlisten
and export.

A Linux version of the 9p server is now maintained under the npfs project
on sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/npfs). There is also a
more stable single-threaded version of the server (named spfs) available from
the same CVS repository.
