Great! FWIW I've briefly tested a modified version of usbatm using the list head in struct urb instead of creating a wrapper struct, and I haven't seen any failures yet. So I tend to believe that your "should be" actually means "is" :) > > If it is, can it be guaranteed in future, e.g. > > by moving the list head into the public section of struct urb? > > In fact I'm not sure why it ever got called "private" to usbcore/hcds. > I thought the idea was that it should be like urb->status, reserved for > whoever controls the URB. OK then how about the following (essentially documentation) patch? Signed-off-by: Roman Kagan Acked-by: David Brownell Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[NET]: Fix HH_DATA_OFF.

2005-06-02T23:48:05Z

When the hardware header size is a multiple of HH_DATA_MOD, HH_DATA_OFF() incorrectly returns HH_DATA_MOD (instead of 0). This affects ieee80211 layer as 802.11 header is 32 bytes long. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Fix locking in shaper driver.

2005-06-02T23:36:00Z

o use a semaphore instead of an opencoded and racy lock o move locking out of shaper_kick and into the callers - most just released the lock before calling shaper_kick o remove in_interrupt() tests. from ->close we can always block, from ->hard_start_xmit and timer context never Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: David S.
