Revision 598af051a79d05b751fe793f1fe09fcf74763e02 authored by Roland McGrath on 10 April 2008, 22:38:45 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 11 April 2008, 00:28:26 UTC
Use asmlinkage_protect in sys_io_getevents, because GCC for i386 with
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n can decide to clobber an argument word on the
stack, i.e. the user struct pt_regs.  Here the problem is not a tail
call, but just the compiler's use of the stack when it inlines and
optimizes the body of the called function.  This seems to avoid it.

cpufreq-nforce2.txt

The cpufreq-nforce2 driver changes the FSB on nVidia nForce2 platforms.

This works better than on other platforms, because the FSB of the CPU
can be controlled independently from the PCI/AGP clock.

The module has two options:

	fid: 	 multiplier * 10 (for example 8.5 = 85)
	min_fsb: minimum FSB

If not set, fid is calculated from the current CPU speed and the FSB.
min_fsb defaults to FSB at boot time - 50 MHz.

IMPORTANT: The available range is limited downwards!
           Also the minimum available FSB can differ, for systems 
           booting with 200 MHz, 150 should always work.
